Malchik Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Tiemmo feels as if he has been a bit forgetful. "You have so much here." He says, slightly overawed. "How can you keep track of what you have and whether you make a profit on it?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emry Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Ebony Smuggler - Please read what's going on in this thread. We have an organized RPG thread running here with established characters and a well defined plotline which is not based on the MW reality. Dropping in this picture and a garbled attempt at an introduction is not acceptable nor asked for. If you'd like to join, please contact Kethruch. Please note that if you do join, proper usage of grammar and spelling as well as forum etiquette are greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kethruch Posted July 17, 2004 Author Share Posted July 17, 2004 OOC - thanks Emry. Ebony Smuggler - there are more than enough places for you if you wish to abide by the rules of the forums and play a character as described on the Arcangel RPG sign up thread. Jumping in here as you did is not acceptable to me (especially as you are apparently attempting to do so after just reading the first page or so of the thread and taking a job that was taken by some of the party already and completed....) As she said, this is a non-MW thread. Just to let you know, I will be contacting a moderator to have your post deleted...sorry if you are big into post count... From Malchik: - Ebony Smuggler's post deleted as requested. Please feel free to use the sign up thread to join. BACK IN CHARACTER: June 05, 1048 1116 "How, good sir?" the gentleman asks, then continues without breaking for even a hint of a breath. "We log in all items that we buy, including a detailed description and the price we paid on a sheet of parchment. These sheets are then put together with similar sheets by category. When we sell an item, the entry is marked with the final sales price and the sheet is moved to the sold folder. On some items, we are keeping track of who purchased them, so that we can possibly contact them when we get other similar items in." He looks at the others, and, sensing their non-interest in the accounting system, finishes quickly. "That's how we can figure out what's going on. Otherwise, how could anyone possibly remember how much each item was?" He laughs, and takes Tiemmo's arm lightly. "So, what is it that I can help you find here today?" The others are finding an impeccably laid out shop, almost to the point of being obsessively done. Each item is laid out in its own category, with a small tag attatched to each denoting what it is and the price. Several much more expensive items are similarly displayed in glass cases at the rear of the store. (AS GM) If you want to buy something, it might be here - armor, weapons, equipment, etc. The prices would be the city price from the cost list that I provided at least most of you early on (called struct1.doc). Either that or present your list here and I will be happy to provide you with the amounts that are haggled to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melisande Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Portia looks at the man and tries to think of what she has as far as cash. She heads back toward the armor and weapons, feeling hers are inadequate, and begins looking for a set of chain. maybe I can get it cheap?[.i] she think to herself. "Excuse, good sir?" she says meekly. "Perhaps you have a ring I can see? I am looking for something in silver and blue. I am also looking for some chain that mught be close to my size that I could work on, if you have anything." She heads toward Eriollis, then stops. "There was also something else that I am hioping you can help us with. A friend at the temple said you might have bought a certain item from him. It is an item I would like to buy, if you have it. Could we perhaps discuss it if you have it? (OOC - forgot exactly what it was- anyone remember or I'll go back through the posts...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kethruch Posted July 19, 2004 Author Share Posted July 19, 2004 June 05, 1048 1117 Eriollis looks at Portia and smiles. "I would be happy to show you the jewelry. I think we might have something that might interest you. Please follow me." He makes his way to a display in the center of the shop. In a square of cases are rings, bracelets, and necklaces of various shapes and metals. There is a ring with a blue stone in it, made out of what appears to be silver. "What price range are you looking at, my dear." He asks, raising his eyebrows expectantly at the end of the question. Krixox snuffles around the shop looking at various things. She picks them up, and after looking over them, puts them gently abck again. "Excuse me." She says in a clear voice. "I believe the item in question is a ring - a silver one with a diamond in it bracketed by two purple stones. Do you remember one like that coming through recently?" Eriollis looks up at the question. "I believe so, though if it was the one, I'm afraid you're too late. A gentleman came in just yesterday and purchased it. You know, I remember it distinctly because he didn't even bother to try to barter." OOC - responding to an inquiry by Emry - you may consider yourself having the items found in the tomb. I am not sure if Eruanion or Alenee are going to be with us anymore, and, if they are, we will work that out at a later point. Responding to an inquiry by Melisande - please remember the limitations of your purse.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Tiemmo is looking to find the shop's records certain that information on both purchasers and vendors of the items will be given. Of course the shopkeeper may be willing to talk about this. But if he isn't..... He hovers within earshot of Melisande to see whether he needs to get to the records or not.

Guest Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Orion scans through the items around the shop. Looking for anything that catches his eye or that could possibly be one of the items that the group is looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kethruch Posted July 28, 2004 Author Share Posted July 28, 2004 June 05, 1048 1118 Eriollis looks at the man who seems to try to be getting closer, then continues with his conversation with Portia and Krixox. "Yes, we would look lovely in these," he says, pulling out two silver and blue earrings that would go nicely with the ring she is looking at. "I can give you the three as a set for, let's say forty pieces of silver?" "Excuse me sir," Krixox again chimes in, also noticing the approach of Tiemmo, remembering that Tiemmo is not the most tactful member of the party. "Excuse me, but is it possible that you would have a record as to who might have bought the ring? Perhaps we can negotiate with him for the return of the item. "Ah, yes." Eriollis says, holding the earrings up to the sides of Portia's head so that she can look at them in a steel mirror. Without turning to Krixox, he continues. "Yes. We should have the records. If you will wait one second, I will be more than happy to get them for you. Now, my dear. Perhaps since they go absolutely so well with the color of your hair and eyes, I can let them go for thirty five, but not a copper less." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melisande Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Portia looks at the image in the mirror and sighs, trying to avoid the glance of the shopkeeper that might show that these were horribly out of her price range. "Mayhaps later, good sir." She says. "Perhaps, when I return from my current business, whoch might be sped along its way if you would be able to tell us who it was that bought the ring?" She bats her eyes coquettishly in a brazen display of her feminity. "If we could find who it was, we could return forthwit and I could purchase these lovely trinkets. There are a few things I need, however, perhaps you ahve some of them?" Portia's buy list (If he has them) Full studded leather armor including arm adn leg greavesFlint and steelSuperior Leather helmWood normal shield (heater) - OOC - what does 'heater' mean - does it make things hot?

Emry Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Linden looks over the wares in the shops and waits patiently for Erollis to finish up with the other partymembers. As she waits, she debates with herself if she should show the shopkeeper some of the items found in the pillaged tomb. After some consideration she decides to show him one of the carved jars (15AE441), the semitransparent clear stone (AA1856A), and the book (AB658CA). The other objects remain hidden. "Good Sir, if I might have a moment? I wish to know the value of some items I recently acquired and was wondering if you could assist me in their appraisal. If you do not have skills in this area, would you be so kind as to direct me to someone who might?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
