Quasi Dungeons and Dragons

(We can have the smithy make new weapons? Instead of silvering current ones? That way we can still do stuff while they're being worked on? 

Either way, it's nighttime no? Shall we turn in for the night?)

Pardon the interruption, but I just kill stuff (I'll take the teeth out, rattle them around in my hand like dice and put them back in the pouch) and, well, somethings are....shall we say.....not alive, or not exactly flesh and blood.  If you have any tools of MY trade that would be useful to me, we can probably come to a mutually beneficial arrangement.  

Gunter: Ah yes, I believe I heard someone say something about a longbow? We have a fine specimen here for 100gp.

(do you need a use poison skill to use poison?  if no, I'd like to know kinds he has)

(He doesn't have any)

(Anyone else want anything?)

Eh, nah.

What time is it and when is the festival?

Some string. Cats like to playbwith string.

(Just about sunset on day 4 and the festival is evening of day 6)

(Lets long rest. We deal with the spawn tomorrow.)

Wait. If stakes can be made from normal wood, Grahf buys enough wood for 6 stakes.

Gunter places a healing potion, a longbow (with associated ammo), and 6 wooden stakes on the counter, with a chest with 3,000 silver pieces.

Gunter: That'll be 500 gold.

(there's plenty of wood in the coffin makers shop, we could soak them in holy water, or embed them with silver dust.....oh the possibilities muhahaha)

(Would any of that be useful?)

(in other games like a home brew sure, why not, probably not with this system though)

Sure thing, Snerp pays the man, then along with the group trudges everything back to the tavern. 

I suppose we'll turn in for the night then. 

(@kinder- ur clear to copy invisibility to ur spellbook hombre 👌.)

As the group lumbers out of the stock yard, Rictavio's wagon suddenly lurches, as though something big has thrown itself against the inside wall. You hear the cracking of wood, the scraping of metal, and the snarl of something inhuman. Upon closer inspection, you see that the sides of the wagon are spattered with dry blood.

(Well this can't be good)

(que the scary dun dun dun music)

(wolf like snarl?)(blood on the outside as if something was thrown against it or it leaked from inside?)(I draw both swords)(this was the wagon we just left?)(was there anything unusual about the front door as it's more durable or secure than would be expected?  Abnormal or unusual number of locks etc)

(guys, I'm thinking werewolf)

(the back door had a heavy lock on it, unlikely something got in as we were leaving, it's probably one of those 2)

(No, you left an actual building. This is the Rictavio's carnival wagon with "Rictavio's Carnival of Wonders" written across the side. The sound sounds something like this.)

(if we are within shouting distance I will call Rictavio outside, though we can wait for others to weigh in on the matter, I'm sure he knows what's in there)

No one answers from inside the wagon. Instead you get another inhuman growl.

(growl from the same place?)

(Yeah)

Well uhhhh, anybody gonna go check that out? Or are we just gonna act like we didn't hear that?  😂

(if it stays contained, no need to do much yet, someone should check on the shop keepers first if we can)

(Lux probably has the best vision I think)

(my money is on Rictavio being what's growling. That "what" would be a lycanthrope to be more specific. If so, we def don't wanna mess with it yet cause Lycanthropes are immune to bludgeon, pierce, and slash from non-magical weapons. So best to stay away till we have silver weapons. Even at CR3(700xp), immunity to non-magic weapons is a hell of a trait 😓.)

(You guys head back to the Inn, then?)
