germany ♔ and despite everything i'm still human



human - daughter
WHO || Gold, Faye, Emma, Astrid, Mars [closed]
WHAT || The Knights investigate a mysterious town with no magic
WHERE || Heimbach, Germany
WHEN || May 31st, 2014 [forward dated]
HOW || Actionspam


[The Knights have been tasked by Sir Hasmed to investigate accounts of a strange village in Germany where magic is rumored not to function whatsoever.  The town of Heimbach is located in the hills, close to a river, and is watched over by a castle on a rocky outcrop in the center of the town.  The village is peaceful and quiet, the weather serene, and nothing sinister whatsoever about the idyllic view as they pull up their car on the main street, in front of several small shops.]

The Town Hall might have records of its history—we should find it and start there.

[ emma doesn't address faye and gold until they're away from the car and moving through the town. and while she's playing the 'if i were a city planner' game, she starts looking out for where that might be (navigate 16). ]

Sure, but those records will be in... German. [Which she might have a plan for but she's just going to point out the obvious as they walk.]

That's unfortunate. [Gold doesn't sound deterred.] We'll just have to borrow them.

[And by borrow them, he means steal them and then leave them somewhere.]

You heard the man. We'll bring them back to the hotel room for Astrid.

[Meanwhile, Gold is looking around with... apparently eagle eyes, because he got a nat 20 spot check.]

It's always a clocktower.

[Absently.]

Well, I can't be sure. [ she takes a look at the sign in front: neues rathaus. ] But I'd say this is about right for a Town Hall. [ she looks back at faye. ] Shall we?

[Faye has her phone out. No one was surprised, but she glances up at Emma, then at the building. She slides the phone into her pocket and nods.]

Sure. Sounds good.

[WELL GOLD WAS GOING TO TRY THE BATHROOM TRICK SO THEY CAN SNEAK AROUND. Unfortunately, he crit failed his wis check, so god only knows what he just fucking said.]
uncurse: (☇ you want the same as i.)

[ AHAHAHAHHhahhah emma rests her hands on gold's shoulders, smiling as she steps up behind him. ]

Sorry. [ let's hope these fuckers speak a little bit of english because she has no idea what the german for that is. ] Um ... [ her nose crinkles and she looks like this is just ~kawaii tourist behavior~ as she "tries" to remember (wis 19). ] Wo ist die Toilette?

Thanks. [Thank goodness her roll as bored teenager is so close to accurate right now.]

Come on, mom. [Its just a cover. But maybe it's weird how not weird that feels.]

[personal profile] undealt 2014-06-10 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, Gold's wisdom check was shit, but his navigate check is awesome (20 total) as he takes the lead to hunt down wherever they keep their records in this place.]
uncurse: 2.10 (☇ can't tempt me if i don't see the day.)

[personal profile] uncurse 2014-06-10 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ nbd following after gold—he's walking with purpose, so she has to guess he has a pretty good idea of where a records room oughtta be. ]

[ emma starts thumbing through files and charters immediately, searching out anything that looks vaguely related to magic and this town's history with it. her research check of 20 helps, and so does her wisdom check of 17 to figure out that 'Magie' is close enough to magic that you can recognize that shit without knowing German ok. intuitive leaps = a+ ]
undealt: (✒ i didn't volunteer for this)

[personal profile] undealt 2014-06-11 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[While Emma works on that, Gold just searches the office for anything that might have gotten lost in the shuffle (search 16). Just to be sure they don't miss anything.]

[Faye is thumbing through files, not really looking for any particular subject. Also everything is in German. So she's mostly looking for words that might look close enough to English that could be useful??? She's just running on dumb luck right now (search 21).]

[personal profile] reallywicked 2014-06-11 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey. [Faye whisper shouts to get their attention. Also her phone is making a noise. She checks that and looks further concerned/annoyed.]

Couple of things. One, Astrid says if we try to use magic we could end up in the hospital, so that's peachy. Two, I found this. [She holds the paper out for them.] Seems weird that a town like this would use outside work, doesn't it? Small town life is all about keeping it in the family.
