LPDnD: Straight Outta Brackton!

[Furiel]

"Excellent, let's take a look. Did you get any info on the baroness? Is she a willing accomplice or being forced into this?"

[Blackferne]

Klovis says "Best as I can tell, she is willing, but mostly because it will please her family. She doesn't really care one way or another and is doing it mostly for status reasons."

[Staris]

"In your opinions do you think it would be worth the risk of trying to get her free of here as well?"

[ooc] Did I miss something or do we not know what deity is involved in this baptism?

Bha'al.

[Whiteness]

"Do we know how heavily guarded the city adminstration building is or how easily it would be to slip in?"

[Blackferne]

"There is no indication that guards are at high amounts. But what I think Klovis was thinkign with the gunpowder is, if a distraction were to occur, they would have to send people to that allowing us easier pickings." Teagor says.

[Jimer Lins]

"Since we're in your bailiwick, I think we should rely on your knowledge of the area and the situation."

[Staris]

"Too bad we don't have enough time to try and steal some guard uniforms. With a big enough distraction, a seemingly helping hand can go places with far less scrutiny." As Stavis is talking will look to Tony and subtly indicate his mask as a way of asking if they can be trusted with him being a Drow.

Stavis will lean over to look at the map "Regardless, where you thinking of using the gunpowder for slight of hand to enter, exit strategy, or something else?"

[Blackferne]

"There are guards all around the city. If we could depose a few we might be able to do such a thing sir." Klovis says "Though I doubt you'd be able to retain a mask if you went into the adminstration building as a guard. As for the distraction, I was thinking for entry and exit if the right target was selected. Though once we have the bishop we need to figure out where to take him as he will be wanted when he is out."

[Staris]

"Possible, though I wouldn't be one of the guards."

"I know I would rather not want to use the gunpowder too early as it can draw focus away but put them on edge as well. We do have means of communication so at the very least set it up as a distraction when the group going in runs into trouble. Is there any high value targets around that thieves might try breaking into?"

[Furiel]

Tony gives a small shake of his head to Stavis about the mask.

"If we're going to use the powder for a distraction we should use it to the most effect. Meaning to either give us the best opportunity to get in, out or both of the administration building. Are there any targets that would bring the most people from the admin building that would also minimize the damage to any innocents? Maybe the guard barracks or something similar?"

[Blackferne]

"We could have the barrel blow a hole in the back of the barracks and in the confusion sneak in to the city administration building. I don't think we have enough for two substantial explosions. Klovis says.

[Jimer Lins]

"If we can avoid doing too much harm, we should try to do so. Something distracting but not deadly would be ideal, and less likely to provoke consequences for the populace."

Syric looks to Klovis and Teagor, "Do you have any information on the nobles that arrived for the baptism?"

[Furiel]

Syric looks to Klovis and Teagor, "Do you have any information on the nobles that arrived for the baptism?"

"And how exactly would any of that information help us with saving the priests life? Eyes on the prize Syric. Taking the priest will disrupt the baptism, they want a big, important to us sacrifice to make at the ceremony, if we take that sacrifice from them we strike 2 blows against them. One to remove their prize and prevent this unholy ritual and secondly to save the life of a good man who is in service of those we are here to represent and uphold their interests."

[Whiteness]

"Nobles are often protected. If those nobles brought a sizeable number of guards with them it is relevant." Syric says simply "why would you dismiss such a simple question? The 'prize' is to gain power so we can fix our mistake, that is the interest I am here to uphold. "

[Whiteness]

"For all I know, these nobles, or removing them, could be more important than the baptism or the priest's life"

[Blackferne]

"Best to our knowledge, the nobles are just out of towners from the next large town over, looking to insert themselves and their air of importance with the baptism." Klovis says.

"My question is once we get the Bishop out of captivity, where should we take him? He can't stay in the city. They will do searches I'm sure." Victae asks.

[Jimer Lins]

"I wonder if our friend from yesterday might be able to assist in that. What do you think, Victae?"

[Blackferne]

"Send 'Killer' to go ask him. He seems to like him best." Victae says with a smirk towards Syric.

[Jimer Lins]

Trinal chuckles. "I don't know if we have time to do that now, but after our other business is concluded, they may be more willing to help us relocate someone. Gratitude goes a long way."

[Blackferne]

"Well if we break out the bishop tonight, then we need to get him out of town quickly. I don't know that we can have him holed up in an apartment for long." Victae says.

[Staris]

"May not want to but if getting him out of town doesn't go unnoticed they will be quick on his heels. Which will be difficult without smuggler passages or the like with the explosion guaranteed to put all of the guards on alert."

Stavis will look to the two "Do your people have a plan on where the bishop is to go when we get him out of the town." Stavis will hold up a hand to request pause "Not that we need specifics just that there are plans already made. If not I would suggest holding the bishop somewhere safe, a couple different safe locations if it takes long enough, to secure safe passage somewhere. Might not be a bad idea to ensure there are signs to suggest the bishop has gone in a different direction to draw attention away and if kept here or a spell, let things cool down a bit here."

"Would suggest making arrangements to have two men or horse back positioned outside the town walls before the explosion with instructions to make haste to a town in the wrong direction at a particular time or signal. That way whether the bishop leaves tonight or not the town guards will have a trail to follow."

While the group is thinking this over will quietly approach both Tony and Syric "At the very least may want to get in contact with the friend on ours for our or at the very least my passage out of the town as I doubt my mask will be sufficient to walk out unmolested."

[Whiteness]

"I don't trust that Brick, I wouldn't want to rely on him to keep the priest safe."
