Welcome to The Bloodhounds RP

"I'd like to know that too," Zavier said, sheathing the rapier.

Marcus left the room, going to get his horse. She was a work horse, but obviously wore enchanted horseshoes that would not require any impact to hold to the hoof, and increased the horse's speed to nearly twice its usual speed. "Shale, we're going to be scouting for a caravan, so I need you to be quick on reaction time." The mare rose on her hind legs and let out a whinny in response, with Marcus hardly disturbed. "You could just whinny..."

Roland kneaded the hat in his hands. "Well, if you," he said while looking at Creature "wished to ride, I think two might be able to sit with you. You are very large... As to going through wooded areas, yes we will be. There's a forest about ten miles into our trip. Most people take the southern road nowadays because it travels along the coast and avoids the forest. Not every caravan can travel on the forest road, it's fairly narrow, but I've done it before and my wagon will fit."

Varen nodded. "Thank you Roland." He had watched Marcus leave and thought it was curious, but hey, he wasn't in charge of his safety.


Roland nodded. "Yes, seeings as nightfall has already come. I'm going to go and get some sleep. Remember that we leave an hour before sunrise. By your leave."


With that, Roland turned and left from the room. After he had left, Varen knocked on the table as he stood and went over to his bag. "Well everyone," he said as he dug through it to grab a purse that clinked with the sound of coins. "I don't know about you but sunrise is in seven hours. You may go to sleep if you will. I believe Abgrider said that those," he said as he pointed to a pair of doors, "were bedrooms. I am going to go out and see what everyone is talking about. Maybe we can pick up a lead or two while we're here. I doubt it though... Ah well. See you later."


Varen walked out the door.

Creature huffed a bit, "aye, I'll walk along and be a ground guard." He didn't have too much else to add, and really didn't care about what anyone else had to say so he walked off to where the bedrooms had been pointed out. He grumbled and took off his boots and any of his extra leather pieces of armor off before he climbed into one of the beds and before long his marks were no more than a dull glow. He would sleep for only 6 of the 7 hours, rising before anyone else to contemplate the land.

Sorry for the pause) Cassandra nods to creature and Ronald. After Varen finished speaking she went up to her room and sat on the edge of the bed, after checking and noting the escape routs, a force of habit.* I might as well sleep for a bit if I am going to be running ahead of the caravan" with that she lay down on the bed and slept

"I'll ride with you, but I'l bring a spare horse in case I need to go mobile," Zavier said. The feline yawned, stretching out his wings. "I should probably rest too. It's been a year, and my shoulder still hurts like hell..."

Morning was soon to come and found everyone in their small band already on their way out of the city. Roland had been true to his word and had everything prepared in his wagon as they arrived. Roland himself sat on the bench of the wagon with the reins in his hands that guided the pair of oxen that pulled the heavily laden wagon down the road.


The wagon was slow moving, but steady. Marcus was off to their left on his horse, Creature was keeping pace near to the wagon's right side with Cassandra, and Zavier was sitting in the wagon with Varen. A few spare horses were tied to the back of the wagon and plodded along as though nothing in this world could startle them.


Varen had started this day walking, but seeing that no one else was taking Roland up on his nice offer, he took a seat and was currently entertaining their host with a song from his home. He sang loud and clearly so that his compatriots could also enjoy the music. While he did this however his crossbow sat in his lap. He had refitted the string this morning and could draw it back with one hand, but he kept watching the quickly approaching treeline as he sung.

Creature plodded along silently, and readjusted his quiver. Dressed to take on mediocre challengers he wore leather armor and carried his long bow, as well as his sheathed hand and a half sword. He walked along and continually flicked his tongue  in and out tasting the air for any impending threats. He thought for sure that it was a bit too early in the trip to have any trouble though.
