In Liska's Claws - A TDE adventure (ID: 496ca5)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  53[Last 50 Posts]

After escaping the spider-infested dwarf mines Nazom and Vinifera returned to the harbor town of Riva, along with Thorgrim, Boronian, and Mule-Mo.

Thorgrim and Boronian went home for the time being, and the two heros went on a shopping spree.

Such potions are rare and expensive, so regular shops don't sell them - barely anyone could afford one.

They tell you to head to the local Academy of Magic. Since you assisted them before in the troubles with chimera attacks in the surrounding area, they are willing to sell you two for the price of one.

It would be 50 Ducats.

He rubs his hands and eagerly shows forth his various wares, made of the sharpest of steel.

Since you're a dwarf he shows various axes, bigger and smaller ones. There is also a morning star which is not easy to handle.

"A battle axe is very effective and deals a lot of damage. It's two-handed though, so you would not be able to use your shield."

He takes out a jewelers loupe and examines the "filthy dwarven jewelry" very carefully.

[1d20+3-5]

Another banker in the meantime hands you the 10 shares, taking 38 ducats in turn.

Yet another banker examines the strange ore.

"That jewelry is quite valuable, Sir! I wager 380 ducats. It would be 38 ducats and we'll keep it safe! The ore honestly... we have never seen before. Must be rare. We store it for free, since the 38 ducats are quite the sum."

"Thank you."

As I leave the store."I'll wait until I swing by the Academy of Magic or enchantment appraiser before I mess with this ring. As for you little guy." I look at the little robot, "What's your name?"

"Of course, Sir. The account is free, but each withdrawal costs a small fee."

The merchant lifts and eyebrow as you start to talk to the little metal elf with the big flower. It looks like it would perfectly fit any garden.

The little elf does not answer but has a bright beaming smile.

You notice the big key it has on its back to wind it up.

"That depends where you make the withdrawal. Banks in big cities charge less, smaller branche cost more. You can even withdraw from unaffiliated banks. But they charge much more, of course."

As you wind the key and put the elf down it begins to whir and starts walking a meter, then turns around and walks back. While doing so it franitically swings the brightly colored metal flower up and down - without falling over or tumbling.

"Excellent, excellent" He asks you several questions, your name, address, occupation... and then counts the 80 ducats. They are put into a massive safe. You receive a bank issued piece of paper that looks like a check, having your name and signature on it - and its value of 80 ducats.

>>141
(( Done! ))

You approach the Temple of Phex, God of Thieves and Merchants. You show the amulet to one of the secretive priests of the fox-faced god. He smiles and hands the amulet back to you.

"It is a lucky charm of sorts."

The priest bows and wishes you good luck after the ducat has disappeared in his robes.

You look through several chests and crates the shop has to offer. Most are big and nicely painted - meant for homes, usually the kind you put your clothes or bed sheets in.

You also see trunks for travelling, and even a few that you could put on a horse, or mule.
