Turn 11Also, does anyone want their pants enchanted? I need more practice. Otherwise, I'll enchant a beer mug or table or something.
| You start enchanting Frelock's pants, while he is still wearing them. After fiddling around for a couple of minutes, Frelock loses his patience and walks away. You doubt that you accomplished any enhancement.
I try to open the ornated steel gate silently. If I am successful, I search for other possible entrences
| You reach for the handle but the door is closed. Judging by the rust on the hinges, you doubt it could be opened silently, even if you had the keys.
| Instead you decide to climb over it, and do so without much effort. The alchemy store has another door here, but whether it is unlocked, you cannot yet determine.
Sneak around outside, sticking to the shadows. Try to use the shadows like a magical cloak to envelop myself and keep myself hidden from view.
| You sneak around. Lacking a better target, you follow Frelock on his route to the cathedral. You need to avoid the same patrol and hide in the same shadow until he has gone past you.
[AI: 3] I ask Frelock if he pays for a beer.
| Frelock does not share his money with you.
Sneak back downstairs and offer to take the drunk to his room
| You sneak back downstairs and nobody notices you.
| You try to wake the drunk man, but he is sound asleep. You decide to leave him alone for now.
[AI: 6] I put all the shirts on at once and leave the shop through the window.
| You figured, that the best way to transport your loot is on your body. You feel warm now, but exit the shop without problems. You are outside again and in the shadows.
Stay to be enchanted, then go out skulking in the general direction of the cathedral.
| You stay a short while, until Toaster is finished with your pants. However, he does not manage to enchant them and you loose patience. You walk out of the tavern and sneak through the streets. The two towers of the cathedral are clearly visible as dark silhouettes against the starlit night sky. You encounter a patrol and you are forced to hide for a moment to let him past, before proceeding. You are now on another street parallel to the main street and quite near the backside of the alchemy store.
Avoid the paladin and get to the tavern for a drink worth a silver coin
| You avoid the paladin by pressing against the wall and holding your breath.
| He slowly walks by and finally loses his interest. "Must have been rats" he mumbles and walks off to proceed with his patrol.
| Just as you think, he is gone, you step into the light and... stand directly in front of the other paladin! He is too surprised to attack right away, but manages to draw his hammer. You feel that you are in trouble now.
(from last turn: ...and once offing using my regen to shorten tail(if i can) and thicken fur covering to act as a kind of armour) I get my bearings, while i do this i o look arround for a weapon.
| You activate your regenerative powers: You try to shorten your tail, but succeed only marginally.
| You have more luck with thickening your fur. The hairs grow thicker now and longer too. It now offers a little bit protection against slashing damage.
| It is not true that weapons just happen to lie around in the street here. You could try to ambush a paladin to take his hammer, but you are currently alone - no paladin in sight.

Background: [3] You note nothing new about your surroundings.

I feel compelled to explain nuker's turn's outcome: simply "getting" to the tavern will not work here. You have to state that you sneak or you won't get the +2 bonus. You also wrote that you avoid the one paladin. So I assumed that you completely ignored the other one (#3). Sorry for being picky, but I want you to pay attention. Good luck for next turn.
Maybe someone should help nuker and intercept the paladins, as they are probably bringing him to another jail (that is located on the Hammerite compound behind the cathedral) That is, if he decides not to resist arrest.
