As the door opens, the group sees a petite female with elvish features though it is clear that she is not full blooded. She holds the back of her head as if nursing a wound and those who look can see caked blood stains her light blonde hair. She wears robes of an arcane nature; a deep shade of purple.

 

She eyes the group wearily but manages to give a slight smile. "A thousand gratitudes to you all. I must have the gods good favor this day! As I said before, I mean you no harm." When her eyes fall upon the book along with the other gear the woman found, her face quickly lightens. "My spellbook! Excellent!" she exclaims but quickly winces. "Oh, that does smart," she says still holding her head.

 

She looks to the one who opened the door and the proclaimed leader of the group. "With your permission, of course," she says gesturing in the direction of her gear.

Chara puts away her sword, assuming the mage has good intentions..and that if her intentions are not good, at least she has been kept away from her spellbook and has no spells prepared.

 

"Come here alone?", Chara asks the elfish woman bluntly.

Chara shakes her head incredulously. "Damn sure got lucky...not like him." She nods toward the remains of whoever the ogre was carving up when the party first arrived. "Was this room as far as you got?" Chara suspects the lady's answer will be 'yes' but asks anyway just in case. Then for Cory's benefit, Chara drops the hint that the party "Sure could use another caster down here."

(a tad bit early, yes I know.....see Gathering post for more info)

 

Cory does agree with Chara & nods his head & says

 

"I don't see how it hurt us if we teamed up with her"

 

"That is if she would like to join our party?" he asks Kyana.

"Last caster we had gone evil on us...so we took him out." Chara says to the elfish lady with an almost theatrical menacing tone and a loud cracking of knuckles. "You look like you got a better mind than that." She grins a little and offers her hand in greeting. "I'm Chara. I'm just a thug. That there's Body Guard. He's my .... he's a thug too."

 

The large hireling come forward and bows in a most elegant fashion to the lady and then quickly retreats to some corner or other.

 

 

(Edit) I forgot Sam is indeed outside with the horses. Thanks for the reminder

"The Moathouse does call to ones that are brave enough to venture to & through it."

 

"My brother, Otis said he was going to explore this area someday. That was before he joined up with a company of men & sought out other ventures.." Elmo says.

She looks to the one with elven blood and smiles. "One who shares my mixed blood and Elven tongue. Thank you for the greeting. While I love speaking the Elven tongue, I will use common for now so not to create suspicion. To answer all questions, yes I did come here alone. I thought it was abandoned or I would be able to handle what few foes lurked in the shadows. I was wrong, obviously," she says with a frown. I came here to explore with hope of finding things value to one of the arcane arts. I did not get very far. I found a secret door that led me to the beast's lair and basically right into his hands. There were others in dark robes as well. I believe one of them hit me on the head from behind. The next thing I know, I am waking in a cell with no gear, and the sounds of a battle outside."

 

She sighs. "It is not much of a tale, but I speak truly. As for teaming up, I am more than happy to join you little group. While I am out to better myself in my craft, I realize I cannot do that alone. Or at least not here. I shall help protect each in this group if you agree to the same for me." She bows her head slightly to show her gratitude.
