Hide doesn't target like that though. Jon didn't mention if I cast Change Self yet (?) - that was only if I couldn't manage to follow normally without being seen.

Bandar doesn't see anything he likes and moves back to the inn to meet the rest of his party. He's a little disappointed in the quality of the donkeys today. While walking, Bandar lets his mind wander and the sounds of humanity wash over him. He listens for any information that may be of use to his party as he moves through the crowds of people.

he tries to gather information about the brooch, he gets an 18 (unmodified 20!, -2 from charisma modifier) and overhears some talk about a theives brazaar underneith the city, apparently many items that are stolen here in waterdeep are sold there (the brazaar begans every midnight)

he also hears about a number of items of stolen jewelry being traded arround

(by the way, gather information includes talking as well as listening, I will often make neg modifiers if you hamper a skill (I didn't this time, just a warning))

Rags memorizes the location as best he can and retraces his steps back to the Tavern, looking for Morgana. Once he doesn't find her, he moves on to the Inn for some much needed rest.

Bandar congratulates himself on his good fortune and moves off towards the inn to tell the party of his findings. His relief is palpable as he is able to contribute positively to the quest.

Tired of ads?

"Morgana - if ever you have to follow me again, I'll be sure to make it easier for you. Perhaps a bright feather on my back or something...anyways, we'll work something out next time."

"Excellent, Bandar!", says Rags, looking curiously, yet appreciatively, at the dwarf.

"A Thieves Bazaar - why that sounds fun to visit even without a task!", Rags continues, "Did you also find out where it is and how to gain entry? Such a place could be a little rough - is everyone capable of looking after themselves?"

[OOC]Our characters should share some basic knowledge of each others' strengths and weaknesses. We can roleplay this, or just assume it here, and each read everyone else's characters sheets.
[/OOC]

* Rags displays his crossbow and mace (both light). He is a decent shot with the crossbow, and prefers to use it rather than the mace, as getting into the thick of a fight is not wise for a spellcasting halfling. He also displays his everburning torch so that the group knows it has at least one light source it can depend on.

"I appreciate your sense of caution, Bandar, but I can't see any reason why Incana would be "setting us up". We have nothing of substantial value to take, and before last night, we didn't know each other."

"I think a morning trip to the marketplace is a good idea. We may be able to hear more about our destination tonight, and I'll get to see more of what this city has to offer.

Come along Bandar, you can show us where you learned what you did yesterday, and there's likely to be a training ground somewhere near the marketplace - perhaps you can show me some moves with your axe that I might be able to do with my mace, if I ever got into a pinch.

Ostler - do you recall the second tune you were playing when I entered the Tavern the other night? The one with the cheery bit in the middle - could you play that as we walk?

[OOC]
In the marketplace, Rags will keep an eye out for a female dwarf. If he sees one, he'll try to "sweet talk" her into winking in Bandar's direction.

Jon - Let me know if Rags gets a glimpse of Tarna's spellbook, inks, etc. at some point - coming from wizardly Silverymoon, he'll have at least a query or two.

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

The party heads to the marketplace. It is a very buslting place with peopel shouting out in common in all sorts of wild accents and having all sorts of items to sell. In the trade ward there are a number of different open air markets as well as two enclosed markets besides many man shops. The party goes to the misc. market that Bandar was at the night before.

You get a glance at Tarna's spell book and see that currently it is mostly empty (she is not a wizard yet), but it seems as if she is interested in following the part of the Illusionist. Tarna seems to spend most of her time looking at the different metalwork and lockwork (As well as weapons and armor and blacksmith work) and seems quite interested in what goods come from different areas.

Ostler has told you that Incana is mostly studying right now, but that she could probably be found at the Bard College on Waterdeep Mountain.

In the market there are a number of dwarves including females, but you do not manage to get any to wink at Bandar.

Morganna goes arround to shady characters and asks after a special bazaar, maybe an 'underground' bazaar.

After a number of bad looks and scowls (and being chased away a time or two), she finds some information (gather information of a 10).

What she finds out is that there is a wicked theives city of Skullport underneith the city of Waterdeep. While this city is fairly far down (the Lords of Waterdeep, while allowing it to be, deffinitely keep it far from them) meetings of the shadier people in the city above and those in the city below often take place at a place known as a thieves brazaar between the two. The man was not certain exactly where it was.

(It is lunchtime about)
