[Lillipad]

We've got the recruits, and can request backup from Nikoth now that I've seen his armed henchmen. How is it just the two of us fighting?

[Shade-o]

Samthere

You twist your monocle and closely examine the joins. It's quite amazing, the joins are so smooth they are almost undetectable. The welds over them have been formed into various shapes that can only be seen with a magnifier. You see dwarfs travelling, dwarfs rejoicing, dwarfs cringing and dwarfs dying. There are also images of animals, plants and fungi interspersed. It's quite remarkable.

IronyOwl

You take the sack of bricks and set off at a brisk pace, whistling loudly so that you appear inconspicuous. You find a large mansion-looking thing, with large windows made of multiple panes of glass. There's a slight throng of foot traffic that wouldn't quite hide you, but there are some service alleys leading away off the street. You look but don't see any guards around at the moment.

Ochita

"Theres magic in your store, although its strongest here. You are not a dwarf are you? A Golem? Tell me the truth." It's a wild accusation, but you're tired of their polite and loquacious responses!

"See. Seedos. Seedosrun! Rundosrun" You have no idea what that was, but it sounded very odd. They appear to be shaking.

Lillipad

You and Nik stealthily remove yourselves from the premises, and head to the agreed-upon spot. You meet up with Norrec, Kas, Cog, and a maid. You share the information, and find it extremely likely that this Duke is behind it all. How convenient. You have a suspect and a way in but you'll need a plan first.

[Samthere]

Gar: I will proceed to examine the gauntlet without the magnifier. Then, after wrapping my hand in a thin spider silk glove, I will try the gauntlet on, flexing my fingers.

[Ochita]

"Run Dos?... Shake it out of it."

(God someone help I don't know how to use DOS. Any commands?)

[V-Norrec]

You said you wanted to get the recruits back.  I wasn't sure if you meant back at the guard house or back... erm well they've always been with either of us.

Anyhow, before we head in, can we get the maid to sketch us a rough map of the place.  That should help our planning immesaruably. 

[IronyOwl]

Ask a passing dwarf about the area. See if they know who lives where and what they do for a living.

(God someone help I don't know how to use DOS. Any commands?)

((Uh... I think it's something like:
C:\
C:\Memories
C:\Memories\Secrets
C:\Memories\Secrets\myconstruction

or thereabouts...))

It's been a while, but if you want to kill a golem running DOS without failsafes who takes orders from anyone:

Ah yes, cd...

[Ochita]

((Thanks.))

Format c:\ *.*. Project this into their mind, after all, I should have an inkling of magic.

[Lillipad]

I meant get them back within the vicinity of me.

Let's get the map drawn out, then prepare a battle formation. Norrec you've got your own weapons, so I'll leave you to your own machinations. I'll have the recruits scrounge up enough money for (3)Pavise to make things easier on Kas and I. I won't request anything of Nikoth until I'm certain that I need better stuff to make things die faster. As per usual I shall stroke my beard in a hard-boiled manner.

[V-Norrec]

Well, I have everything I need.  I'll ask the maid about any defenses we might face as she draws the map.  I'll also try to note (mentally of course) the locations of areas where things of high monetary value might be.

[CoughDrop]

cd ..

[FuzzyZergling]

I ask around for the location of the noble with the missing limbs.

[Shade-o]

Samthere

You examine the entire gauntlet with plain eyes, and note the smooth, natural form it has. The glossy, purple metal almost makes it look like a piece of pure muscle. Cool. You put on a fine glove and insert your hand, and you hear the Duke give a start, but he doesn't interfere. The fingers, wrist, and numerous other points are well-articulated, the metal perfectly formed to mesh together and provide ultimate flexibility and protection. It hasn't been treated with lubrication, but it doesn't seem to need it. As you raise your hand, you feel stronger. Niiice.

Ochita

You take a step back, unsure of what is happening. You didn't sign up for this!

"See! See! You yell back, not at all knowing what you're doing.

"Execute User? Why Ehn Auto Why Ten Nine Eight Seven Six...

V-Norrec

The maid draws a rough map of the major hallways and rooms in some dirt. It's pretty terrible.

There's a dedicated guard room near the entrance, with about 15 guards in the entire mansion. The Duke's bedroom, office and vault is at the end of a long series of hallways. The side entrance leads into a kitchen/workshop area that is directly connected to the dining hall.

Lillipad

You could find a guard station and temporarily commandeer some more equipment, you've got a writ that say's you're on a mission.

You are armed with a heavy crossbow and chain mail.
Everybody else has leather armour.

Norrec is armed with a shortsword and buckler.
Cog is armed with a warhammer and heater shield.
Kas is armed with a heavy crossbow.
Nik is armed with a two-handed Great Axe.

IronyOwl

You grab a passerby and ask who lives in the mansion. They shrug and say "Some Duke with more money than sense"

FuzzyZergling

You ask around, but nobody knows. You go back to the lodging where you left the servant girl, but she's gone, probably to go back to work.

[FuzzyZergling]

Tend to my mushroom plot, picking any ripe ones.
I also keep a shovel near, for surprise worm attacks.
