 Name: Malo Baker HP:8/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 Tides of Chaos: Avaliable Spellslots open: 1st- 2 Malo sits on his stool happily chattering away about nothing in particular as he writes in the book in front of him being held up by a ghostly hand '-and well my family has lived here as long as I can remember, the Baker family Bakery as it were has been a staple in the small group of permanent residents." Glancing from the corner of his eyes he peers towards the other table giving them only a brief stare his quill flicks across the pages quickly as he continues to babble "My mother works here as a foreman of sorts, she used to work for an adventurers band way back in the day-" a tooth pops from Malo's mouth clattering to the table where he absentmindedly snatches it up depositing it in a bag at his waist "-excuse me, before she met my father. She was escorting some folk down to Silverymoon and the caravan she was traveling with stopped by to drop off some workers and supplies for the camp." Malo's Book of Interesting People posted:A fairly slow day today but it doesn't do to not record those that are even a bit interesting. Grabbing at a dinner roll sitting in front of him Malo tears off a chunk eat and sips delicately at the last glass from the good bottle of wine he'd brought back from school, clearing his throat awkwardly he drives his conversation with no one off in another direction "I was at Silverymoon for a while in school but things really didn't work out." The magehand holding his book up in the air lowers a bit as Malo dips his quill into his ink and his eyes bulge a bit at the sight of the pair at the bar and he immediately falls back into writing. Malo's Book of Interesting People posted:Ohoho I spoke too soon journal, look what we have here! Waving his hand dismissively the mage hand lowers the book to Malo's lap and dissipates in a puff of ethereal smoke. His attention finally dragged from the book taking up his line of sight he gives a small smile and announces to the room "I'm Malo by the way. Pleasure to make your acquaintance" Successful Businessmanga fucked around with this message at 09:30 on Mar 10, 2015 |

Name: Malo Baker HP:8/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 Malo nods and some of the tension drains from his face as the city boy finally joins the conversation, if there was anything he learned in the city it was that no one there knew how to have a simple conversation. Smiling widely Malo replies "Yep! She's a good friend of my Uncle Jake. He moved here to live with my Pa and help out some with the Bakery a few years back, the work crews always need food and well my family has lived here as long as I can remember, the Baker family Bakery as it were has been a staple in the small group of permanent residents." Malo proceeds to loop back through his entire one-sided conversation not particularly bothered that he's already run through this entire story before for the city boy. Stopping just before he makes his introduction again he clears his throat and says "Anyhow Miss Humblefist is kind of the center of the community, she's been a good friend of the family and helped keep our family running when the labor shortage happened." Glancing to the side conspiratorially he faux whispers across the table "Now I'd say gossiping is rude, but really in a small camp like this it's almost a currency. I've only been back a few days or so but what'd you wanna know?" Successful Businessmanga fucked around with this message at 06:53 on Mar 10, 2015 |

Name: Malo Baker HP:8/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 Malo stares at Varella walks up and makes her inquiries and he dumbly says "What you live here too?" he lets the comment sit in the air for a moment before cracking a smile with an innocent wink and motions for her to pull up a chair "Y'all folk visiting ain't really the normal custom the Oakwood tavern gets when there isn't a caravan in town so I figure y'all are here about the missing workers Miss Humblefist has been lookin' for?" Pulling his pack out from under his seat Malo pulls a cloth wrapped bundle out from the top and the scent of fresh bread begins to leak out before he has even begun unfolding the cloth "Now I was saving this to give to Miss Humblefist but honestly they don't tend to break out the fresh stuff until evening when the workers get back so by all means help yourself" Pulling a small serrated knife from his bag he begins meticulously slicing the bread into even cuts.

Name: Malo Baker HP:8/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 Malo quirks his eyebrow up as Alan walks up and fills the air with his flowery speech, he unsubtly stares at the man's ring a moment but whether or not he seems to know what it means is not at all apparent Making no objection to Alan's approach Malo smiles when the man offers to buy the drinks raising his wineglass from the table and toasting the air "To new acquaintances!" before knocking back the small bit of jade colored wine left in his glass. Smiling in bliss as his drink settles Malo addresses Alan briefly his accent seeming subdued behind the self consciousness of speaking to someone so proper "Miss Humblefist and the work crew shouldn't be too much longer in coming back. Normally they would run multiple shifts in a day, but you're here so I suppose and you know why they're not taking the risk." As he looks out the window a touch solemnly he allows the dour look on his face to persist only a moment as he turns back to the assembled group before the perpetual grin replaces it and he thumps the table once with a hearty "We have time enough for a drink or two in any case! Then we can head across the street to talk of serious things." Whoops!  I got a little ahead of the ball, no more posts for me until the dm update haha.

Name: Malo Baker HP:8/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 I keep trying to stop but y'all keep draggin' me back in! Dick Burglar we'll go with May-Low. Malo smiles widely as Kail takes the offered bread, his full bright smile lacking no teeth, a welcome sight to behold for sure though the bag at his side rattles unnervingly as he gesticulates. He turns his head briefly as Alan speaks and mentions his house but by the blank look on Malo's face it is clear he has no idea what the man is talking about, his lips thin disapprovingly as the man says shite, these city folk, no manners whatsoever. Malo however does seem mollified somewhat and resumes speaking in his normal tongue "Well I'm sure it'll be nice to know ya, if you're here to help out y'all can't be too bad" Picking up the empty bottle on the table Malo shakes it gently sets it down disappointed as his personal bottle from the Octavian vineyard has run dry he wistfully says "Best ten gold I ever spent" and slips the empty bottle into his pack as the barkeep arrives with more drink. The drink begins to take its toll on a slightly drunk Malo as he slumps forwards slightly in his seat resting his elbows on the table and cradling his chin with his palms as he takes in the minor conversations going on. His own ring slips off of his pinky finger bouncing to the table, the sigil once hidden as it faced palm down, it rolls to a stop in the center of the table the sigil on it depicting the symbol of Talos bound inside the symbol of Mystra, Malo's own private little joke about his chaotic powers which are quickly outed as Bestiary rolls up and begins poking at him before rolling off shouting about Chaos and eventually introducing itself.

"Come on now you don't wanna be late for the meetin' " Bursting through the door to Saori's office assembled party in tow Malo doesn't slow his stride even as Saori is recognizing him. Throwing his arms around her in a familiar hug he says jubilantly "It's been too long, I only been back a couple days, and I'm right sorry I ain't stopped by but I reckon Pa always needs help in the shop and I figured I oughta give him a hand there first" whispering into her ear "This here bunch seem mighty decent so far I think we're in good hands." Pulling back he flips his pack around in front of him and pulls out the matching bottle of Octavian Jade that he'd been drinking at the tavern he turns the label towards her with a grin "Just a little something I rustled up in the city before I left, I know y'all been having a rough time out here" Setting the bottle on the desk he smiles brightly and says "But dang if it ain't mighty good to see you Auntie Saori!" before stepping back to join the rank and file of the assembled party he speaks up nodding "Whatever you need me to do ma'am I'm there for you."

Name: Malo Baker Spells Equipment As the group makes their preparations Malo swings back to his home and dips into the store stock after handing over a silver to his father he gathers up a bevy of pastries into a small basket. Approaching the group at the edge of town they make their way out to the forward camp the hunters have stationed themselves he waves giving the assembled a chipper "Howdy!" before sauntering over and depositing the basket of fruit tarts on top of a crate and folding the kerchief covering the basket back for the hunters to get at smiling he simply steps back in line saying "Y'all bring that basket back to my Pa next time you're in town now m'kay?" As the group makes for the forest Malo stands at the back of the group and gestures with his hands whispering "Magis Attrecto" summoning an ethereal ghost hand that reaches into his satchel and lifts out the book he'd been writing in. The book now floating in front of him, Malo not so subtly stares at The Bestiary as they march through the forest taking sketches and making notes on the creature's physique. He tears himself away from the interesting topic of The Bestiary flipping a page and filling in his notes on Vorag before drawing a simple depiction of the man with a side diagram depicting the dragonborn's mighty fangs. Technically Malo has to cast Mage Hand every minute but eh flavor.

Malo stares off at the bandits slowly opening his mouth as he chooses his words carefully screaming as loud as he can in Draconic "<YOU RIGHT FUCKERS! I'LL GUT YOU FOR THAT!>" Whipping his fingers through the simple motion of his cantrip he snarls out "Ignis Sagitta" sending a streak of fire through the underbrush and catching one of the bandits in the chest.

Name: Malo Baker Spells Equipment HP:8/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 Tides of Chaos: Recharged Spellslots open: 1st- 1 Malo cackles wildly as his spell hits it's mark only to be swiftly followed up by Bestiary's own fire. Settling down a touch as the battle plays out in front of him he sees the primped up noble man get hit rather hard and sets his sights on a new mark. Stepping forward Malo braces his foot on the corpse of the dead boar in front of him and lifts his ring to his lips kissing the combined symbols of Talos and Mystra and grins shouting "Now y'all gone and started a row the fun's begun, let's go hog wild!" Pointing his fingers out towards the bandit next to Alan Malo grins as wide as he can and hisses through his teeth " In the next instant those assembled can feel in their bones the weave crackling around Malo as its power curls around him delivering its blessing, any looking at Malo see his face shifting a thousand times as potential lives cast their light over him, a ghostly image of a hundred different bodies flit around him before fading away as the weave calms down once again. Malo stands seemingly unharmed but for the still fading glow that is on his skin, taking advantage of the spectacle he flicks his wrist forward and three bolts of force spiral away from his outstretched hand streaking across the field to take a bandit in the chest. Moving forward one square and casting Magic Missle of B2 for 9 damage[7523] Auto Surge from Tides of Chaos:92[7524] If you die within the next minute, you immediately come back to life as if by the reincarnate spell. Vanilla wild surge did not trigger Lothire has said it's okay for me to handle my autosurges so long as I don't go crazy abusing the Tides->Surge->Tides again mechanic, just so that it's less work on the DM to track  .Successful Businessmanga fucked around with this message at 05:37 on Mar 11, 2015 |

Grinning like a madman at the recognition the weave has delivered. Standing after a minutes rest he digs through his pack pulling out his own healing kit and ambling over to help tend the wounded.

"I reckon y'all ain't had too much experience with the Lurkwood proper before so I'm just gonna say now what we're doing here with the blindly marchin' ahead is a bad idea." Removing his cloak Malo fishes out and changes into his spare set of clothing the colors more muted and scattered for blending into the woods. "Gimme a few minutes and I'll take a looksee at what's up ahead." Setting aside his belongings but for a knife sheathed on his hip and the crystal from the clasp on his cloak Malo takes off quietly down off the side of the road into the woods quickly disappearing from sight to go and get a handle on the situation ahead. Sneaking off into the wilderness never to be seen again: 15[7529] e: Oh I guess since Malo is changing his shirt out y'all can spot this junk tattooed across his upper back.

Throwing his cloak back around his shoulders and re-attaching the clasp he points off into the forest "I'm right sure I could lead us round'em if we wanna avoid a fight or we could come up on the side and give'em a walloping they ain't expecting while they stare where they think we're at." Either way we'll probably get some xp Bypassing the guards via tricksy methods is good and saves us some healing but also pelts would be good.

Shaking his head he follows up on his original thought "anyhow them critters up ahead just looked like yer normal type wolves to me though they were mighty focused on the road like they knew we were coming down it, ain't like any wolves I ever seen" Picking up his pack and slinging it on he nods "I reckon I'd rather we cut up the side a while and hop back on the road once we've made it a ways past but really I'm up to do whatever y'all want."

As Malo brings the group through the woods parallel to where the wolves were he becomes uncharacteristically silent, leading the group down a separate route cutting deeper into the forest and further towards their destination making only the tiniest of sounds as he goes along.

Malo begins to scream. Delightful Memories posted:Opening his eyes Malo is floating in an endless beautiful sea of nothing. Glancing around he sees something large floating towards him. Malo appears once again from where the weave took him, wrenching at the ring on his finger Malo rips it off taking some skin with it and throws it off into the forest. Malo falls to his knees as the smoke around him begins to clear his eyes unfocused as details about Kezef the Chaos hound come fluttering through his mind. Malo wants to scream but it is no longer in him.

Had a chat with Lothire in irc and this is kind of happening in drama time as Malo is sitting out the combat. Name: Malo Baker HP:5/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 Languages: Elven, Goblin, Draconic, Celestial Tides of Chaos: Recharged Spells:Spellslots open: 1st- 0 Equipment Malo absentmindedly stands as his nerves begin to settle, and starts to look around to confirm the situation when his eyes lock on the restrained goblin. Marching over quickly Malo gives his approach a moments before ripping a stinking strip of cloth off of one of the dead goblins and binding it over the unconscious goblin's eyes and nose. Malo grumbles a bit getting his voice to sound right Malo changes his thought processes and shakes the goblin awake chattering away at it in goblinic "Hey! Wake up idiot! You one of those that been stealing the humans that are chopping the trees?" Malo fiddles around with the knots on the goblin's back making it seem as though he is trying to untie them "The master has openings for those of us that are able to benefit him" jerking roughly on the ropes and pulling the knots tighter he spits out a goblin curse "If you can tell me something about them wood choppers I'll risk running over to grab a knife off one of your dead ones to get this poo poo off, them humans are up in the trees killing that spider but that dragon thing is nearby I can smell him."

Name: Malo Baker HP:5/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 Tides of Chaos: Spent Spells:Spellslots open: 1st- 0 Equipment Malo's face turns grim as the goblin admits the dark deeds they've been up to, Malo skitters away making small barely audible steps and stands off to the side a moment collecting himself. He didn't know any of the season's workers but he had felt the loss of a work crew coming back missing people often enough that it still stung. Sighing Malo focuses on getting back into character and pops back down next to the goblin and starts firing off whispered words again "Oh aye aye aye bin workin unda war chief Dregu I does, finks hisself some kinda humie war chief like wot dem screamin bar bearins is 'bout. Pulling out his letter opener Malo hooks it under a loop that won't cause anything to happen when cut and begins sawing with the fairly dull blade " This what yer war chief got ya fer a knife? Wha' a piece a junk Dregu's a git but he ent stoopid, 'ands out the good chops to us and we ken git dem humies right good. Making a show of dropping the blade to clatter softly in the dirt he continues pulling at the blind fold that he has tied on incredibly uncomfortably tight "Ent nuttin I ken do wit dese knots, if dem stoopid humies can do sumfin it's tie knots, you tell me where dat humie stuff is en Iz gonna carry ya to it and sumfin in there ken probly cut dis junk." Malo allows the goblin a moment to respond and whether it speaks up and reveals something or not, Malo speaks a final time dropping the colloquialisms that have built up over time in the language and the quirky accent that the goblins in the Lurkwood had, he starts speaking so clinically the goblin probably has a hard time understanding "You are a fool. You have made a grave error. You have harmed my tribe. My War Chief has called for your end." Malo flicks his proper knife along the side of the goblin's face cutting the strap of cloth away to look the thing in the eyes he continues in common his accent seemingly absent as the touch of the weave crackles off of his tongue "You made your last mistake harming my family." Malo steps on the goblin's neck and presses down holding his foot there until the creature stops squirming. Another Deception check to see if he'll give up the goods:14 Lothire ok'd a little skill shuffle since as Eclectic pointed out we've got all kinds of social overlap so I'm just stickin' to deception so Vorag and Kail can shine a bit more when we get to social stuff. Picking up stealth/sleight of hand as it doesn't hurt to have someone quick with their hands. Also oh god grim-dark Malo is not going to be a permanent fixture believe me hah. He just needs a stiff drink and to work off the killing things for the first time deal. I can roll the 6 dagger attacks it would probably take me to kill this guy even with autocrits knowing my luck if you really want me to Lothire haha.

Name: Malo Baker HP:14/14 AC:13 SP: 0/0 HD: 0/1d6 1/1d8 Tides of Chaos: Spent Spells:Spellslots open: 1st-S-0 L-1 Equipment Malo smiles sadly as the man confirms the deaths of the others, "Well I'm glad we managed to save at least one person" As the man eats his healing berry and heads down the tree Malo makes to follow him but stops as Galhadra makes her appearance simply bowing his head Malo greets her in Elven his tone a little stilted from his distress "Mistress." Malo's eyes are clearly distrustful and cold as he stares, the last few minutes having been somewhat distressing, at the druid who is imparting some kind of task on the Beastiary. Stepping back onto the solid webbing Malo figures it won't hurt to give more details to someone trying to actually do something about the source of the problem and addresses her back in common "I had a chat with that tied up critter down there givin' it the impression it was talking to another goblin." Malo nervously brushes the web residue from his hands and continues "This group was part of a tribe run by a war chief named Gizuk who sent them out to follow the spider there around and keep it fed, said they got lost out here. The goblin said they'd been gettin' chased by the local Uthgardt and Smuffins there" he jerks his head towards the corpse of the spider "was what they were after."

On the ground he reclaims his discarded knife over to the rescued hunter while pulling his waterskin out and taking a pull off of it before handing it over and taking off to prowl over to the soil where the goblin sign was planted and looks for anything amongst the designated "feed here" area. * Doing Awakened Mind a little odd since it's supposed to be something gained from like alien thoughts intruding haha.

Wading into the underbrush quickly to to retrieve the errant coin purse before the group leaves him behind Malo stops as he hears the Uthgardt addressing his companions. Skulking forward Malo waits until he can see the group across the river and falls silent as their tribe name hits his ears.

Name: Malo Baker Malo is simply sitting in the underbrush having recognized the Elk tribe for their reputation he sits there panicking as he thinks of the reputation they have as bandits and slavers, as he looks from companion to companion standing at the bridge something clicks and another wave of itching surges over his back, he bites at his lip to stop himself from hissing out between his teeth still worried about the terrible people the group is facing. As Malo deals with the itching across his back the front line party hear what appears to clearly be Malo's voice in their minds the inflections all wrong for any type of speech that they are familiar with the words not even recognizable as such though the understanding of the rough meaning forces itself to sink in "-Organic Large Mammal Tribe. Forceful Meat Traders. Traders of Rawest Meat-" e:So everyone but Varella hears that I guess, maybe the bandits too if Lothire feels like it .

Name: Malo Baker HP:14/14 AC:13 SP: 0/0 HD: 0/1d6 1/1d8 Tides of Chaos: Spent Spells:Spellslots open: 1st-Sorc-0 Lock-0 Equipment In the bush Malo's face lights up with recognition of what just happened with Vorag hearing his thoughts just as the itching subsided. As he's sitting there pleased with himself he hears what the dragonborn says and places his face directly into his palms shaking his head, gripping his staff he jumps up in the bush yelling "Close enough Vorag!" Malo's free hand is already twitching its way through a new spell that has come into his head with the latest surge across his back. Gathering the energy he can feel the itch return in force for what he knows will be the last time for a while, the tingling sensation extending across his ribs and burning into a large area of his chest as he utters a new phrase "Malbenu kaj Malica Pafo." There is a burst of magic in front of the lead Uthgardt and in his vision for the briefest moment the image of a hound writhing with maggots which is quickly dissipated by the beam of force that flies from Malo's outstretched hand glancing across the man's face. As the shaman's vision returns Malo has already skittered away past the back line of the party. Surprise! Casting Hex with my bonus action, target now takes 1d6 necrotic whenever I hit it and I pick an ability score the target is at disadvantage with which will be wisdom.

Ah Important factoid I forgot, the statues Malo found will go in the mystical ~party inventory~ he isn't interested in making physical contact with religious iconography at the moment, and back at the camp Malo'll hand out the healing potions he found one each to Kail, Vorag, and Alan. I said I'd think about it on IRC and then never actually posted about it.

Name: Malo Baker HP:23/23 AC:13 SP: 0/0 HD: 1/1-1d6 2/2-1d8 Tides of Chaos: Avaliable Spells:Spellslots open: 1st-Sorc-2 Lock-2 Equipment As Saori flings herself upon Malo he is quick to return the embrace but his joy at the reunion is short lived as he sinks to the back of the group as they explain what had happened, Malo catches his Aunt's eyes a few times as the group chats with her and she can tell something has upset the boy. Having known him as someone to be smiling his entire life she has only seen Malo as dour as he is now once before when a family pet had wandered off into the forest only to be found dead by a scout the next day. Slipping out before the explanations are finished he heads to the family cottage to rest knowing he will have some time alone to his thoughts as his father works late into the evening and with the return of the crews to work his mother will be out in the woods directing the logging crews. Resting on his bed he tries to recount the experiences of the day, the simple triumphs but finds his mind consistently flowing back to the traumatizing memory of waking up in the test labs after his jaunt into the astral sea, Malo isn't a smart kid but he certainly recognizes that being flung there again has kick started something unfinished from then. As he contemplates the issue the itching he had been feeling begins to creep back across his skin, now that he's not in a situation he might die he takes it a mite bit more serious and flings off his top blanching at the sight of the large circle ringed with runes that has appeared over his chest, panicked he runs out of the building to the small workshop behind the cabin where his mother has a large polished steel mirror and looks at the tattoo work on his back finding all of the lines within have pushed out and their design runs across his ribs and over his shoulders flowing into the circle on his chest. Just a touch upset Malo flees back into the home proper hyper-ventilating as he closes off his room and throws the latch shut. Pacing back and forth across the room he wracks his brain trying to remember the explanation the upperclassmen had given or even relevant knowledge that had been said in his classes but he knew full well none of it had really stuck to him. On his sixth trek across the small room Malo stops as he hears a whisper from inside the room, it starts as a wordless garble of sounds and only grows louder as suddenly the itching begins again focused on the ring across his chest. He watches as what he hesitates to call ink spreads inwards, what he thought were people talking unintelligibly he now recognizes as his own voice whispering secrets into his skull in a language he is quite sure he does not know but as sure as the sun comes in the morning he knows the meaning being imparted. The lines finish flowing across his chest and settle as the itching stops, he is almost tempted to marvel at the intricate work that has appeared on him however the mocking imitation of his own voice has only been growing louder and louder multiplying now a dozen times over whispering dark secrets into Malo's mind the cacophony of sound becoming too much to think through As the sound is becoming to much to bear and the details of the room become painfully clear a single thought pushes through the noise and Malo stumbles to his pack resting by the door and pulling the bottle that Galhadra had given him out, he fumbles at the stopper for a moment as he notices his mouth is moving and speaking the alien words he is hearing inside of his head and successfully freeing the contents he tips the liquid down his throat eye and all. Level up!: Malo is taking another level of warlock. Spells: 1st level Armor of Agathys Malo picks up a second warlock 1st level spell slot as well. Features: Agonizing Blast: Add cha bonus to Eldritch blast damage. Devil's Sight: Malo now has darkvision up to 120 feet in vanilla and HP: Rolled 7+2 A new image has emblazoned itself across Malo as well!  This is what happens when you post late at night Lothire you get my rambliest writing, haha.

Name: Malo Baker HP:8/8 AC:13 SP: 0/0 HD: 1/1-1d6 Tides of Chaos: Obtained Spells:Spellslots obtained: 1st-Sorc-2 Equipment Malo suddenly finds himself back in a memory, watching his body awaken in the lab the two students had bribed him into submitting to an experiment. His body face down on on the lab bench Malo is able to watch this time seeing with senses he did not have at the time the scene for what it is as foul tendrils of ethereal energy pierce their way through the planes and settle into the tattoo on his back which fills in with more detail as the seconds pass, realization settles in as he watches the light of chaos ingrain itself into his body. As Malo watches from outside of his body he gains a slight understanding of the nature of the chaos working it's way across him. His mind sectioned off from the mental assault trying to force it's way into his mind Malo commands his body to move feeling his way through the house as he simply watches his past unfolding in a new light. Some of the alien words his body is whispering are still in the back of his thoughts and more and more of it is beginning to make sense. Malo steels himself as his body finds what it is grasping for without a thought he quickly draws the kitchen knife across his chest making a shallow cut that disrupts the ritual circle that has formed. Malo snaps back to his senses minutes later a small amount of blood staining his hands and counter he's been leaning on, he simply grabs a rag from the counter pressing it to the minor wound and collapses exhausted into his father's large chair a smile on his face at having at the least temporarily sparing his sanity long enough to find someone to stop this.

Name: Malo Baker HP:22/23 AC: HD: 1/1-1d6 2/2-1d8 Tides of Chaos: Avaliable Spells:Spellslots open: 1st-Sorc-2 Lock-2 Malo is awoken as he has been many times in the past by the sounds of a caravan rolling into town, jumping up excitedly from his bed he is about to head out the front door when he recalls the previous evening, shirt in hand ready to be put he first notices the bandaging across his chest before realizing he is in his bedroom rather than the chair where he collapsed. Stepping into the kitchen he sees his father asleep face first down on the table, the few medical supplies kept in the house strewn about him, this isn't the first time Malo has found his father sleeping at the table having come home from a late night preparing the bakery for the following day of work. He leaves his father to sleep, he'll find his way to his bed eventually. Glancing to where he'd originally lost conciousness, Malo makes his way over to the expensive chair he has ruined by bleeding on it and waves his hand over it fingers pinched together as he says "Parvus Calumnia" and the minor cantrip sparks over the chair, Malo's blood and many older stains disappearing from the faded upholstery, he repeats this process until the chair is spotless and moves to the writing desk. Siting down he pulls out a sheet of paper and envelope and begins to write a letter to his parents explaining everything that had happened, his failure througout school, his naivety in believing two people who ultimately could have killed him, the sudden surge of magic that had come to him, and the revelation that something else had brushed against him from elsewhere that was having an effect on him. He finishes out the letter with a simple goodbye and a wish that he will return soon having found a solution to his problems. Folding the letter into an envelope he casts the same spell used to clean the chair, lighting the candle at the desk and seals the letter using a simple metal M stamp. Malo grabs his pack and takes a long look at his house hoping the next time he is here things are different for him. He places a bag of coin on the table gently so as not to disturb his father and leans the letter against it. Shutting the front door behind him as quietly as possible Malo joins the early crowds in their shopping having to poke around a while before he is able to make a deal with the caravan and buy a set of armor that a ranger of Malo's rough build had sold to them. His only purchase complete Malo edges off to the edge of the square resting against a tree until later in the morning when the call for help is given Malo walks up to the man and with a nod says "I'll be coming along" Malo is leaving 100gp for his family and purchasing a suit of studded leather for 45gp.

Malo smiles at the man as he is recognized, it was one of the benefits of being one of the few permanent residents of such a place. Malo gives a small laugh and conversation with the man "Well sir this is the Lurkwood I wouldn't believe the best liar in the world if he said he'd lived here and not seen danger a time or two." Shaking the man's hand he nods to his worries about Malo's age and constitution "I made it down the road to and from Silverymoon alone both ways without dying, and well I was a student at the academy there learning magic so I should be fine on this trip." He motions with his hand off into town "Some folks came into town recently and helped Miss Humblefist with a spot of nastiness happening in the forest and I tagged along to assist them, we were just speaking last night about heading to Waterdeep so your arrival is quite the happy surprise sir!" As Beastiary approches Malo gives the man a nod "here's one of my companions now, give me a short while and I should be able to find the others if they don't get here on their own as the word of a caravan heading to Waterdeep gets around. I'll go and give a poke around the obvious spots and see who I can find." Malo is basically just going to the tavern to root out those that are there and bring them to the caravan master.

A moment passes and then he notices the bodies on the ground surrounding Alan and Vorag and nods, his attention drawn to the mess he fails to notice the leader of the crew rush forward and take a shot at Kail, as the man's daggers strike Malo turns his gaze on him and raises his hand up. His fingers at eye level he curls his fist shut slowly and then whips his hand towards the bandit leader and hisses out a pair of spells, a sigil floats above the mans head for a single moment and then Malo catches him in the side with a beam of force. Malo'll round the corner corner and move to F-11 and use his bonus action to hex(dex) BossBandit and strike him with Eldritch blast with an18 to hit[7595], and he'll take 6 force damage and 4 necrotic(7596). I misunderstood how hex works so it isn't as great as I thought the target only has disadvantage on things like skill checks, not just any checks that use the stat haha.

As Malo nears he realizes this plan is stupid, stopping in his tracks he raises his hand and summons his sleep spell tossing it casually behind his fellow half-elf knowing of his immunity to the spell. A wave of shimmering light floats towards the bandit and he finds his eyes drooping before he falls to the ground. Malo grins as he finishes walking up and gently pulls the bandit's hands behind his back and snaps on a pair of iron manacles, to any stares he simply raises his hands and says "My ma was an adventurer she always says a good pair of manacles can save your life! My aunt always said a pair of manacles can come in handy with other things too but she never did say what." Malo is moving to d-8 pulling out his manacles and casting sleep at a-5 then continuing movement to d6 Kail and Malo are immune so the Bandit boss will take the full brunt. Manacles go on.
