briefing ♔ time to feed the monster

[wynn]

WHO || Wynn, Marty, Matthew, Nels, Miles, Val'drin [Closed]
WHAT || Oxford Mission Briefing
WHERE || Knights HQ, the briefing room
WHEN || Wed April 16th, shortly before 5pm [forward dated]
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

Just as before, accessing the secret room where the Round Table is housed requires using the Knight's keycard to open the glass case beside the mural of the War in Heaven, located across from the ballroom entrance. Using the fire extinguisher as a lever to activate the "door" mechanism reveals the long torch-lit hall plastered in artwork depicting the Knight's history. The tenants of the Knighthood hang large and foreboding over the doors at the end of the hall, which stand open to reveal the brightly lit Round Table, and the majestic crystalline dragon statue presiding over it.

Come in, find a seat, meet your teammates if you haven't already. Val'drin and Wynn are already here when you arrive.

[Nels swoops in, and bows low at Wynn and Val'drin]

Good evening Sirs. [He slides down into an open seat quietly, and attentively.]

SORRY I'M LATE TO THE PARTY

[And after everyone else arrives, in strolls Marty, wearing sunglasses to... well, hide his hangover. Yeah, because sunglasses worn indoors aren't the universal sign of "somebody drank too much" or anything.]

Hey. [He flashes a quick grin as he plops himself down in one of the seats.] Hope you weren't waiting on my account.

[wynn]

Not at all. We were just about to begin.

You'll be heading out shortly to Oxford, here in England, to visit a bookstore called Sword & Sorcery, where you'll be meeting with the proprietor, one Mr. Broggon. Broggon is a practicing mage, and an ally of the Knights who Val'drin is somewhat familiar with, from bygone days.

He recently received a mysterious shipment along with his regular arrivals, and when he came into his shop this morning, found the crate broken open and empty, filled with webbing of some kind. He believes it contained some kind of creature, and that it may still be in his basement. The mission is a simple matter of discovering what was in that crate, and perhaps why it was sent to Mr. Broggon.

I guess it might be a good thing he didn't open it when he got it.

[Sounds spidery. F U N.]

[wynn]

I would suspect so. Are there any questions, before we adjourn?
