    A high black funerary wagon with deep purple trim drawn by 2 draft horses arrives at the gate. A behatted, masked figure leaps out of the back dressed in a questionable leather ensemble and a blood-stained cloak which she had said earlier she was going to burn.
    "Ekkie! Ekkie! Look what I - oh. You have a cart too. I suppose I should have expected that. Hey! Who's that guy? Why does he have a cart too? Does everyone have one? Why did no one tell me before I ... There's no way we'll all find buyers in Clayton. Songsunder!"
    Before storming back into the wagon she gestures to the driver - a hard-faced easterner with her hair pulled back in a tight bun, legs like scissors and eyes like butcher's knives;
    "Jin, follow that cart. No, the one with the drunk guy driving. Thats Ekbard, a warrioir as fierce and dangerous as he is self-centred and greedy. If you're going to get into trouble, wear something valuable that doesn't come off easy. And if an arrow lands in your head and explodes your brain, that's Goodie's way of saying hello."
    She eyes the strangers warily before returning to the safety of the wagon.

    OOC : I have no idea how you hire a retainer. I'm happy to flash back later if needed but let's not hold up the party. Jin Qi is my driver, I'm hoping I can also have a blood boy - whom I shall name Zoynx - in the back, if'n it please m'lord.

    OOC: A proper blood boy is created by a vampire lord. You can certainly find somebody willing to be feasted on for coin, but they'll be drained quicker than they can heal. You'll get 2-3 days out of them. Unless BandyLegs or Moy or yourself will heal him. Note a randomer is Level 0 (classless).

    OOC : You gave everyone else a free Dwarf! I bought the same cornflakes as them! Where's my prize! OK, never mind so, I'll stick with my faithful Jin Qi. Here - what's the story with my piss poor charisma and stopping Jin from running away? Also, if we come upon something a little hardier, is there the option to subdue an opponent rather than kill them outright so I can keep a viable, tougher, intelligent-enough-to-count being in my trailer for draining? Maybe after I lop off their limbs at the elbows and knees, sear them and Cleric-heal them and zip them into a gimp suit? Is this getting a little too Tokyo Gore Police?

    Bandylegs sits back down for a few moments, drinking his ale and relaxing for what will probably be the last time for a while.

    Following a full night's drinking Bandylegs arises and makes for the gate with his apprentice limbsmith in tow.

    He regards the others there.

    'So laddies, lasses.... where do ye want to head first, and how do ye want to get there?'

    Bandylegs explains the mission ahead to those at the gate.

    Othegre emerges, Aria at her side.
    "Hail glorious lea-what the fuddlement happened to you! Wouldn't it be easier to just fit you with a carry handle?"
    Again, she eyes the strangers
    ".....did you bring me breakfast? Aw, Bandlegs! You dote!"

    Ekbard laughs, "If you ask nice, maybe Bandylegs' new aprentice can sort you out with a new set of legs"

    Flak walks to Othegre. "I have tea if that will pass for breakfast. My name is Theophlaktos. I am...a novice magic user."

    Barikhek arrives with a company of nine other dwarves.

    "We're ready to go, just say when. Masters made me Sergeant of this motley crew."

    OOC: On confirmation from four of ye, I'll start the new thread with Clayton as the destination.

    'No stranger than ourselves, Ekbard! Look at me laddie, metal arms and legs, we've even got a vampire amongst us now.

    Once the five dwarven warriors I was promised arrive we should at least check this destination out. Then we can decide via sea or land...'

    Kal nods 'Clayton is fine by me. Lead on Dwarf. If you don't mind I'll hang out here in the middle of the group. I'm still a bit weak from my time in the cells.'

    Ekbard looks around for Mud. "Where is that dwarf!" Ekbard edges out of darrowtown, continously looking behind to see if the dwarf makes an appearance before losing sight of darrowtown completely.

    I draw my silver dagger as I step back. Not threateningly,just to be ready. "I have no tricks for you today Cleric Enru but if you wait till tomorrow I shall show you how the spell of Light works cast inside your armour. I imagine that would be...interesting."
    "A cleric vampire and a cleric dwarf. Strange days."
    I turn my back and climb aboard my cart which I set into the midst of the caravan.

    Kidunli races up to the party with a massive warhammer slung over his back and jumps onto Othegre's wagon.

    "What dazzling wit! What sharp repartee! What minimalist armour and weak forearms! I do hope the reckless idiot thing is just your way of breaking the ice. There's a whole lot of hungry hours between now and tomorrow... Oh! Are we moving? JinQi! Look alive!"
    She runs back to her wagon.

    "Perhaps if I'd fallen to my knees and pissed my breaches you'd have respected me, child, but I doubt it.
    Or if I'd thrown myself at her feet begging for eternal life as a thrall you'd have respected me, but I doubt it.
    I have not been cowered by her and yet I find myself having to show you respect? I find your logic twisted. Perhaps it's you who are in thrall to the Lady cleric. Do you hold a torch for her affections?"

    I return to driving my cart.

    Ooc : sorry, missed this last night. Othegre is not well disposed towards dwarves with warhammers. He might want to find another wagon. Or learn to breathe through his arse.
