I like Luvcow's characterization so far: inexperienced with other cultures, distrustful, slightly xenophobic. I'd like to see where he wants to take it.

Day 1: Evening in Slom Wol, in the alley by the Greentree Tavern You decide on trying the Greentree Tavern, clutching your stomach as you break away from the cackling group of women and the ox cart of hay. The smell of a nearby passing Dwarf, sweat and grime mixed with alcohol, wafts deep into your nose. You stutter step for a moment, fumbling towards an alley next to the tavern to collect yourself. Inside the tavern you here boisterous laughter and noise, more clunky human music blaring into the city streets. A figure emerges from the shadows, startling you. A large shirtless man leers at you and approaches, "left your whore friends behind did you? I ain't got no copper left but I don't think you'd mind givin' up a freebie, no?" His eyes seem to pierce into you, drawing up more bile in your throat. He adjusts his belt and begins to walk towards you, trying his best to block your escape from the darkened alley.  Final version of your starting spell book: No need to memorize spells, just cast from those known, only one spell per day at level 1 Detect Magic Feather Fall Read Languages Read Magic Shocking Grasp Sleep (Three spells missed out by one vote each; Charm Person, Flame Arrow, and Jump) Outrail posted:Haha we have social anxiety. Awesome. All posts are considered even if not used so at this point it's kind of fitting as she is almost completely crippled with self doubt. Sounds about right for a 1st level elf heading into a human city. I do apologize if I haven't answered everyone's questions yet, I hope to soon. dontcareaboutname posted:poor luv by like 3rd update he is going to throw his arms in the air and scream NEEEEEEEEEEEEERDS, after reading enough of our posts. No matter what anyone here says or does, I am the OP so there is no denying I am the worst nerd itt.

cast sleep on him, then try to recompose yourself and stare down the other tavern patrons. alternatively we can say yes, and just bite his dick off in public and smoke it like a cigar. we could also just have a full blown complete black out panic attack.

HiHo ChiRho posted:Sleepytime for the rapist. I agree with this but don't do it in public. Act like you are one of the whores and get all seductive but tell him you should go to a room before sexing it up. Once you get in the room you should sleep him, steal everything he has, pull his pants off and point the nearest gay rapist to his room to teach him a thing or two about trying to rape people.

We're not in the tavern yet, just the alley way, so it's just us and the dwarf. We should save our spell unless we actually need it and try leading off with a "gently caress off dwarf or I'll chop your dick off" sort of thing.

Yea I would avoid any out and out violence yet to stay on the good side of whatever local law there is. It sounds like we also went with strength over dex, so hopefully we can use that here. - Draw sword, use strength to hopefully pass some sort of intimidate check. Hoping the sword is enough to show him we mean business. - As he still advances, cast sleep. - As sleep fails, then start the rear end-kicked time - this option seems like a great way to end up on the wrong side of a mob or in some sort of town dungeon though. - After disposing of the guy, still check for any posted flyers or signs outside the tavern related to these borderland troubles; if we're as super anxious we'll want to avoid talking to people whenever possible.

Day 1: Evening in Slom Wol, in the alley next to the Greentree Tavern The smell of the large man is overpowering as he looms above you and prepares to drop his pants. Your mind races between running or using your magic, shock or sleep. He draws closer and leans in to touch you, his massive hands trying to grab your waist. Instinctively you whisper your incantations and thrust your hand into the center of his sweaty chest. The air around you tingles and shimmers for a brief moment before surging into and through your hand. For a moment you both go rigid, bolts of energy crackling around the man as he grimaces in pain. You get 25 (spell) + 50 (killing the man) = 75xp. Then it's done, his body collapsing onto the ground, the alley falling into darkness again. You hold your breath as the realization that you have just killed someone washes over you. In the dim light of the alley you see the wisps of his soul climbing out of his body. You whisper a prayer for his spirit as you try again to collect yourself. "You's a.. a wizard? Did you.... you kill him?" You turn in disbelief to see a small dirty human child staring at you from the entrance to the alley. The music from inside the Greentree Tavern seems to rise in tempo and you can hear the patrons begin to sing along.

Tell the kid you had your hand set to stun. That he should be ok in an hour or so and then book it for the inn. Check inside to see if it's at all elf friendly.

Day 1:Evening in Slom Wol, in the alley by the Greentree Tavern You growl at the child, channeling the angry voice of your mother when she scolded you as a young elfling, "He's sleeping child. But you should know better than to get involved with wizards..." He stares at you, terrified, "please ma'am... don't kill me...."  You kneel down and quickly inspect the corpse, finding a small belt pouch with several pieces of dried fruit and a single sticky silver coin. You toss the pouch and it's meager contents to the child and ask him what he knows. While stuffing the fruit into his mouth and hiding the coin, he begins frantically talking to you, "Crown's Guard has been comin' through, headin' north... Borderlands are goin' crazy, somethin' evil brewin' up there that's got all the old folks scared.... Trouble in the forest too, spirits are angry or somethin' and a lot of the woodsmen don't wanna work no more, a lot of em either headin' south to run away or north to fight..." He munches away on what's left of the dried fruit and then finishes "and somebody saw an elf a few weeks ago in the woods... crazy.... You ever see an elf? Ya me neither... "

Draw in close to the kid "You best start believing in elves kid..." slowly raise your hood to show him your ears "You're talking to one" And tell him to scram. Let's then head to the bar, ask around about the woodland spirits. Sounds like a Root problem and we are on our way to fetch her too. Two birds with one arrow.
