17/9/17

01[20:16] <@BradGM> **Taking their costumes and armour for the Ball, the Party returned to the Iron Tower to realx and prepare themselves for tonight. Hoffer and his companions returned 01[20:16] <@BradGM> from the Sewers, wounded, but with news of further dead mutants, uncluding the discovery of a weapon's cache and the cleasing of another skin temple to the Chaos God Slaanesh. 01[20:16] <@BradGM> Taken to the Masked Ball via coach, the Party made quite few heads turn as Siluvaine's Magister status allowed her a certain acceptability with the higher circles of Imperial society. 01[20:16] <@BradGM> The Party mingled well with the other guests, Edgerrin managing to have a private tour of the Engineering College of Nuln by Waldred Teubr, Rector. 01[20:16] <@BradGM> Siluvaine discussed with Agnete Krebs, Rector 01[20:16] <@BradGM> of the University. The Wizard was struck with an haiar-raising feeling observing the Winds flowing about Krebs, but further discussions were aprutly cut by the entrance of the Countess Emmanuelle von Liebwitz 01[20:16] <@BradGM> and the Emperor Karl Franz. Having kept away from the brouhaha of the Ball, Aithorn was able to spot Rolf Vogt entering with everyone focused on the dancing and Imperial presence. 01[20:16] <@BradGM> Informing everyone of Rolf's presence, the Party closed-in, Volg going to a private lodge on the first floor, followed by the Aquillan-nosed man, who was earlier presented as a member 01[20:16] <@BradGM> of the Countess' Counsil. 01[20:16] <@BradGM> Aithorn and Edgerrin observed from halway up the stairs, Alexi and Siluvainea bit within the ballroom proper. Without warning, Roft stabbed the Counsilman in the neck, causing a 01[20:16] <@BradGM> woman in a near-by lodge to scream in horror, causing some diversion for those below. Aithorn, having witnessed the murder as well, calls for it, causing some talks and alerness from the guests and Guards.** 01[20:16] <@BradGM> **Roll initiative!** [20:17] <+Aithorn> !roll 1d10+7 [20:17] <@Dicenator> Aithorn: 14:7+7 [20:17] <@Edgerrin> `roll 1d10+4 [20:17]  Edgerrin rolled 1d10: 7  [20:17] <+Alexi> !roll 1d10+4 [20:17] <@Dicenator> Alexi: 10:6+4 [20:17] <+Siluvaine> !roll 1d10+5 [20:17] <@Dicenator> Siluvaine: 6:1+5 01[20:17] <@BradGM> !roll 1d0+4 Rolf [20:17] <@Dicenator> BradGM, Rolf: 5:1+4 01[20:17] <@BradGM> !roll 1d0+4 Guards [20:17] <@Dicenator> BradGM, Guards: 5:1+4 01[20:18] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10+4 Rolf [20:18] <@Dicenator> BradGM, Rolf: 13:9+4 01[20:18] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10+4 Guards [20:18] <@Dicenator> BradGM, Guards: 7:3+4 [20:19] <+Siluvaine> ((If its a chase, Siluvaine is sitting this one out)) 01[20:19] <@BradGM> **Order is: Aithorn, Rolf, Edgerrin, Alexi, the Guests/Guards, Siluvaine.** 01[20:20] <@BradGM> ((logically in a way, since youR,e wearing a full evening gown.))
