Morganna studies the urchins for a while, and selects a "likely - looking" one (bright, not too shifty), and flashes a copper at him. When he comes over, she slips him the copper and says, "We're looking for a place to eat -- cheap, but good"

Bandar struts over to the young dwarf. "M' boy, give me one o' your kabobs while I tell you about why today's yer lucky day..."

Bandar tosses him two coppers and procedes to explain how he single-handedly saved the dwarven race from destruction on numerous occassions.

"...and so now you can tell all yer friends that you've met Bandar the Dwarf! Good luck t' ya!"

Bandar wanders back to the group with what's left of his kabob.

Rags sidles over to Bandar and makes some small talk. Then he heads over to the young kabob-selling dwarf himself.

"Sir Bandar has sent me to fetch him another kabob. A second one is only 1 copper, right?", says Rags, playing the part of a gopher for a mighty warrior.

Yes.

I don't just ask people. If I notice 'shady' people talking and am in a spot where they won't notice me easily, I use "read lips" on them. I use "sense intent" as a gut reaction on truthfulness on those I do speak with, though I don't discount any of it.

Since I'm new around here and still feeling out the social structure, I try not to intimidate anyone.

I will take it that yuo are both using all your skills to gather information

Moganna gets a 12 (11+1)
Rags gets a 19 (14+5)

Rags finds a shady character who is willing to sell a map of a way to skullport for 3 sp

apparently (this is sometihng both of you have heard) the way is dangerous and there are many traps set by thieves (As well as the theives themselves)

both of you also hear of entrances, there is one at the "Red Inn" in the basement (there are also others, that you heard rumors about, just both of you heard about this one)

"Olives? Yum. Just how to get there, but then we should be able to ask around for the Bazaar, or it might be very obvious once we get there.

I am going to head over to the Red Inn now - might as well make ourselves part of the scenery earlier rather than later. Then we might not arouse suspicion when we start looking for the entrance. Who's up for a drink?"

(I have the biggest test of my life thursday and friday so I will not be on here continually (and if I am it will be a sign that I gave up))

The party reaches the Red Inn, which is an Inn and Tavern like you suspected, where they take a table along one wall. Tarna sits with her back to the rest of the room as does Bandar (so Ostler and Rags and Morganna are against the wall). A flagon of Mead is 4 cp (please spend from your CS). Right now the inn seems to be mostly empty. When questioned the manager relates that it is mostly busy in the evening. Right now all that is at the Inn is the day manager (a tired woman of about 50 with worn clothes and a foreign but hard to place accent) and yourselves. Occasionally very late risers come out of the only other doors to the place (which are in the back).

(BTW, more people are welcome to join if your are unsure, we will try to get moving again)

For some odd reason the party felt fairly lethargic and took a nap until evening. Morganna and Bandar (and Tarna) awaken to sounds of merryment and a fairly full tavern of seedy looking individuals.
