You party hard. Not even the kitten can control you now.

IronyOwl

You'll need to defeat them in dwarf-elf-goblin. What DO You DO.

Lillipad

Which guards?

[Samthere]

Gar: will take the metalworking plans and thank the Duke for his generosity. "'Twas a pleasure to work for you."

[Lillipad]

The guards by the vault. I said that I was going there in my last post of actions...

[IronyOwl]

ELF.


Lillipad: Well-equipped goons. Large numbers of well-equipped goons, in fact.

[V-Norrec]

Never wager against Urist MacGyver!!!

Head to the storeroom first, then the dormitory instructing the servants to get out while they still can.  While in the storeroom, take note and see if there is anything odd in there.  After that, head to the office and prepare to ambush the Duke as he enters, hopefully alone with our alcohol/flour/lantern bombs.

Only 4 of the guards are alert, and working. Possibly even awake. Unless Norrec sets the mansion on fire with his bomb things before we gather everything we need, things should stay this way. None of the servants are around to alert the unaware guards, so we're safe.
I'm pretty well equipped right now too. I lack plate armor, but that shouldn't make much of a difference.

After much deliberation, you choose the plans. Coins can be found by any means, but knowledge is rare.

The Duke is beaming that you are being so cooperative, and offers you a position in his organisation. Wait, what IS his organisation?

Lillipad

You lead the squad down the hallway, going straight for the goods. At the final intersection, you check the surrounds. On the left is the bedroom, door closed. In front across the corridor is the office, closed. Right is the vault, where the Duke and two guards are talking to the visitor. He appears to be paid handsomely, no doubt for some nefarious purpose. The vault door is heavy metal with a wooden overlay, currently hanging open. If you're stealthy, you might be able to close the vault door on them, locking them in while you search the office or bedroom. The sound of the vault closing wouldn't be considered unusual by the guards in the barracks, even if they could hear it.

IronyOwl

The Smith choose Dwarf! He is handily defeated by your cunning move. He grudgingly lets you take his place. You have to craft five Chemist tools, a collection of delicate instruments made from metals including copper, brass, iron and steel, to be integrated with fragile glass at a later date.

V-Norrec

You grab Kas and search the rooms while Mikhail heads for the intersection. A few servants are found and quickly leave at your orders. The storeroom contains food, drink and miscellaneous supplies. After a quick scan you return to Mikhail, who has found the Duke in the vault. Your squad is hiding around the corner, hidden from view.

[Samthere]

Gar: asks what this position would entail, and makes a point of not asking what the organisation is. If the Duke wants him to know, he'll say. He also doesn't notice any noise outside, seeing how he's not already trying to.

[Lillipad]

I'm too hard-boiled to be stealthy enough for this job. Norrec I'll leave closing the door on them to you, I'll give you cover fire if you're caught.

[FuzzyZergling]

Wake from what must be a drunken stupor, and survey surroundings.

[Nirur Torir]

I pet the kitten when I think nobody is looking. I wish I had some fish or something to give to the kitten. Bribery works wonders on expedition leaders.

[IronyOwl]

Do my best to create quality Chemist Tools. Just because they're not mine and I'm not getting paid for them doesn't mean I can get all shoddy on them.

[V-Norrec]

Stealthily close the door and lock it.  Then rummage through his office in search of incriminating documents.

[Shade-o]

Samthere

He informs you that he could use a good metalworker for forging and repairing the equipment used by his employees. While this would mainly entail domestic tools and equipment, creating and maintaining weapons and armour are also included. He could directl contracts your way if you prove able, resulting in a constant stream of exiting and profitable enterprise.

Lillipad

You watch and wait.

FuzzyZergling

No reliable witnesses means no punishment! Well done.

Nirur Torir

You pet the kitten, but it refuses to latch onto you. It likes you, though.

V-Norrec

You and Kas sneak forward to the vault door. The guards hear you and turn, but you manage to push the door closed before they can act. You spin the mechanism into place, and check that it's secured. You should leave somebody here to watch it, just in case.

[Samthere]

Gar: is distracted by the guards' actions, as, presumably, is the Duke. He'll stow the designs safely. After the Duke's inevitable moment of anger/panic, "I can probably get that door open, if you don't mind it being out of use for a while." If he approves, I'll take the tools, and carefully apply a small amount of the highly corrosive acid I used earlier to the lock mechanism/bolt. Then I'll rush back behind the guards.
