Here you try, my hired hand found out the hard way it comes back immediately after it hits something, so maybe we should see what I hit. He threw it thinking it was some junk, and when he turned his back POW! right in the back of the head.


*Laughs a bit*

What does the writing on the side there say? I have never seen that language before

No more will our number ever grow small,
We'll simply make sure there's no virgins at all!


*Leucippus smiles at the ending lines of the Drows song. How true, how true, he thinks to himself as he continues to relax and slowly play very soft quiet background melodies on his citole*

That, I think we may need a dwarf for that, from what I gather, it is a hammer blessed by Thor, but not made for him specifically, but, since I had that contract on Thor, I cannot just go and ask him, unless we had a powerful Cleric or Necromancer to bring him back.

By the way, do you read Vamp Speak?

Hmmmm that would be an odd dialect of dwarven. One moment

*Pulls out a bag and fishes around in it for a few minutes. With how small the bag is you wouldn't think much could be held in there. After several minutes of searching he pulls out a long thin wand.*

Ah, there you are

*He walks over the the table the hammer is sitting on and taps the wand to it. A large flash of red light explodes from the hammer and sends Rathil flying into a table. A little stunned he slowly climbs to his feet groaning*

Okay, the hammer didn't like that. We may have to get a dwarf

*He says holding his back*

I personally don't but one of my agents does,

*He says still holding his back*

In fact I had to send him out earlier since we have so many vampires running around the city now. Those parasites are starting to annoy me. I told them that if I or any of my agents see them within 100 yards of this inn they will meet with a very unfortunate sunrise

what was that all about? I have never seen a hammer do that! How you holding up? Are you ready for this? *Produces a kite shield from his "bag of holding" it is Black in color, and has a leather inner liner, and inscription on the inside, but in an ancient Vampire language called Vamp Speak.*

Well I will leave you gentlemen to your toys and back upstairs to try to sleep some more. Thank you once again for the flute. And once again please do not interfere if you hear my screams. .turns and heads up the stairs

I hear that, I was hearing rumors of those blood suckers making a return, so I have my trusty sharpened wooden crosses. I had someone in Bristol carve me a wooden stake, but when I got there to pick it up, the dummy carved me a wooden Steak! What am I going to do with a T-Bone made of OAK?

Oh, I am fine. I was merely trying to decipher the writing. However if it was blessed by Thor it may be beyond my capabilities to break the magic.

My My, I have not seen anything like this he says looking at the shield. I am not sure what it says but I will send Railin to your academy tomorrow to assist you in whatever you need. He deals with vampires reguarly. Although I believe that is very ancient. I am not even sure he can help

He told me he was unsure of it and to contact you, I had the Wizard look at it first as well as a Helm I want to put in your care, he says that the Shield sapps energy from your attacker and heals you, say for example he does a ten point hit, you gain those points, he loses them.

Screams? what on earth does she mean Rathil?

Ah, that would make sense. That is how most vampiric magic works. I have never seen it in the form of a shield though. I am familiar with a very deadly dagger that drains its victims life force and gives it to the wielder. That is a little different though.

*Leucippus packs up his gear and prepares to head up to a nice free room for the night. He was originally going to sleep out under the stars but since Rathil bought rooms for the night why not take advantage of the kindness. He begins to ascend the stairs to find an empty room for the night. And turns to Rathil with a nod to acknowledge the gift of lodging. Then begins to climb the stairs but stops short*

“You don’t have any more of those magic flutes do you?”, Leu asks half-jokingly.

*Thinking of his own nightmares and the seemingly generous mood of Rathil it surely couldn’t hurt to ask*

I fear I was a tad dishonest with her. The only magic that flute possesses is the music it produces. It is a simple wooden flute I carved myself not more than 3 months ago. Although it seems to give her peace of mind

Oh the screams are nothing. She has nightmares that keep her awake at night. It is why she was down here this late. she couldn't sleep

Maybe it was part of a complete battle set, uncommon but possible.

Very uncommon when it comes to magic like this. You generally don't need more than one vampiric weapon to destroy your opponents soul. More likely the magic items were crafted for different creatures. Perhaps even warring vampire clans

Then this turned up, I polished it off and set to put it in the museaum, but realized that I have seen this in combat before, this is the infamous "Helm of opposite alignment" Makes good people turn evil, and sinners into saints, as long as they are wearing it, worst of all, they have no idea of the changes. *A metallic blue Helm is placed on the table, it is a full helmet with face shield, and a single slit accross the front for the wearer to look out of.*
