Default [GURPS DF]: An Adventure, I Say. [IC]

Village of Goy is more of an outpost than a village. Heavy rain that has been falling for the last two weeks has made the dirt ground into mud, which is immensely irritating even to the most rugged pathfinders. It is a small outpost with merely more than about twenty hovels, one of which outstands from all the others due to the fact that the light in it still shines and a wooden sign on it is the only wooden sign in the whole outpost, saying "The Strucky Luck".

The night was not very rainy, but a few drops that fell on you on your way here were enough to make you completely wet.

Laughter and occasional drunken singing can be heard when you reach the entrance to the tavern, and upon closer look, one might notice that the tavern seems bigger inside than its exterior.

The tavern itself has about six tables, all of which have six stools put around them. Four tables are full of locals who drink and chat about recent happenings in the region. The bar is small, yet big enough to have two big barrels of ale behind it, along with various liquoirs and bottles placed on teh top of barrels.

Two barmaids keep on bringing patrons their orders, while the bartender smiles at a profitable, rainy night.

The tavern is warm and smells of ale, which a good thing, due to the fact that it is pretty chilly outside, smelling like wet dogs.

(OOC: I take it that Poonbahbah's character is already in place, waiting for all the others at one of the empty tables. You might choose to be late, if you wish. All of you got notes from Jean, and you can find them in your PM. Regarding "quests", one can always ask one of the barmaids or the bartender for latest rumours, which might spark a clue or two where to begin first. I wish you all a great game and fun and prosperous adventuring!)

Ah so I was bluffing when I said I have something lined up. I quickly tries to find a quest so they don't all kill me when they get here. I arrive early, very early.

Walking in From the wet outside felt like a god send. Tien stood at a little over 5 and a half feet, and was fairly average built, You would not have notice now though with his cloak covering most of himself and his Jingasa covering the top half of his face, the lower half by his Menpo. Sword at his side he tosses his cloak back over his shoulders, littering the floor with water.

He spots Jean from the entrance and makes his way to him.

In walks Celeste, her hair is soaked and hanging partially in her face. Even the rain couldn't burst her bubble though. The broad smile on her face catching the attention of several locals. She carries her pack in her hand with her helm strapped to it.

Approaching one of the local ladies that had made eye contact, she speaks as if she almost knows her. "Oh sweetie, that's such a darling dress, it compliments your eyes so well."

She continues inward, looking around and taking in the entire place. Smiling and nodding to those who's eyes she meets.

Finally bringing herself to the others she's here to meet and setting her pack on the floor.

"Hey! It's so good to see you again Jean." stepping in for a hug.
Turning to Tien "It's Wei right? You're in on this too?" and hugging him as well. "This is going to be so much fun!"

Get's up to give a hand shake to Tien. The says, I'll tell you the choices when everyone else is here. Then he'll sit down and sorta moodily look at nothing in particular. Not really much for small talk.

Thorn will suffer the ladies embrace and say the same to her as to Tien before going back to his thoughts.

Safe to say the next to arrive this way. One everyone has arrived he'll strat his spill.

Leon walked into the tavern, his head instinctively bowed as usual. He really didn't like to leave the master who had been so kind to him, but Phillip was very understanding about it and Leon didn't really have a choice- not if he was going to start a family.

Walking over to Jean and the others around him (Leon only knew Jean- he didn't socialise much), he waited to be spoken to.

Tien is not accustomed to being hugged, so it was awkward for him.


"Its Tien." he mutters through his menpo. He slides his jinsaga down to his back and lessened his menpo so that it hanged around his neck.

As I finish twisting my hair into a slightly more manageable mess, I stand up from the table and hug the new guy while saying; "Hi! I'm Celeste. I'm a Priestess of Puela" with a slight smirk at all that that implies.

"Ah, my apologies. I love your hat."

Leon wanted to push her away or ask her to stop, but it felt much too rude to do either. "Uh- right..."
