Faithbender Praey
Stormwind
Praey's eyes wandered back and forth, the movement visible from under her eyelids. Her breathing was minimal, her entire body frozen in concentration as she delved deeper.
She kept note of everything she saw, the man in the red mask standing out. She pushed harder, forcing her way into his memories, trying to hear a name or place before he pushed her out of his mind.

The memories continued further and further back. More deals, more shipsments made by the same person, never a word said between them... Untill finally she reached the day they met:
"You understand what is being asked of you?" the maksed man said, the memory giving words but no voice to go along with it. Whatever he masked man sounded like, Chaplan had forgotten long ago.
"It sounds simple enough," Capland replied, with a nod. "Sell the drug, make the pickup every few weeks in the south of Elwynn... But... I'm still a little concerned about my safety."
"We told you; we will protect you. We may have broken in numbers, but our goals are still strong."
"You still haven't told me who you people are!"
"That is not important, only the money is."
"Yes, the coin is good... but this city is full of gangs that wont like having their turf moved in upon by a third-party. Ebon's gang, VanCleef-."
"The Ebony Gang wont a problem," the red-masked man interjected, "their reach is too farspread for them to notice you untill it is too late for them to touch you. And the Defias is not a threat to you, we already told you that..."
Chapland stirred and Praey's connection to his mind began to waver. The magic and the potion were starting to interact with each other and were affecting him. He wasn't waking up, but there was no gaurantee he would stay asleep either.

Praey opened her eyes suddenly, gasping for breath that her mind had realized she needed. Her brow was drenched in sweat and her heart was beating hard and fast. She slowly turned more opaque, her shadowform fading.
"Jus.. need... a momen'..." the priestess gasped in between breaths, trying to calm her breathing.

"Are you okay?" Zeltharis asked with a raised eyebrow.

Sirax Harrington
Stormwind City
Sirax only gave the woman an awkward stare in response. He didn't do much else other than listen, until the four bawling dwarves appeared. He moved further back into the corner and forced a cough to catch the others' attention.

The man replied "Watch your tongue drunk".
The best way to deal with drunk was to beat them sober.

One moment Cassidy was still behind the curtains. The next he seemingly just appeared, with a pistol in each hand - one pointing between the eyes of the goon who held Sirax, the other at Lion.
"Unhand my alchemist. Before I count to three. One," the mercenary said calmly. He was confident he could shoot them before they slitted Harrington's throat.

Felicity's hand shot to her sword when a voice rang out form the entrance. "The fel are you doing in my place pencil #$%^!" Luxuria spat the dwarf, flanked by two large men with the look of those who had grown so used to killing, that the prospect held no immediate interest or concern to them anymore.

The Sin eater
The man slamed his elbow into his foe and pulled out a .357 snubnose revolver at him while sending his lieutenant a signal.
Bear
Bear rushed into the fray, and roared, taking the attention of everyone and waited for his master's orders.

Sirax Harrington
Stormwind City
Sirax couldn't help but wonder how the dwarf could reach his throat from behind, but his train of thoughts was soon disturbed by the interventions of several parties. Of these, he felt the most secure in the bounty hunter's despite the obvious risks.
Standing completely still, Sirax caught Cassidy's eye - or more correctly, looked straight at where his eyes should have been behind the mask. He felt the tip of the blade against the skin of his neck and the shiv poking his back, and he hoped that Cassidy's confidence was well founded.
He swallowed, feeling his skin move against the knife. 'Two' would only be a moment away. He resisted closing his eyes, and hoped he wouldn't get too much blood on him. Then he nodded subtly, to let the bounty hunter know he was as ready as he'd ever be.

"Damn wastes of space. Hey! Get that bear out of here!" Luxuria cried, shooing the large creature back out the entrance as the two bodyguards vanished once more.
Felicity cringed, fairly every pair of eyes on their little group now. Including those of a short, rat-like man at the bar wearing an obscenely wide brimmed hat. Felicity narrowed her eyes slightly at the man and sidled up to Cassidy. "That distraction you offered? I think I may be taking you up on it," she whispered.

"Do not breathe and close your eyes for a moment," Cassidy murmured, stepping away from Felicity and dropping a smoke bomb. When the smoke dissipated, the mercenary was no longer there.
Another smoke bomb came off in the middle of the hall, and the bounty hunter stepped out of the clouds.
"I am John Cassidy," he announced. Though his voice did not change, somehow now it was carried across the room easily. "You have heard of me. Consider yourself lucky. I do not have a warrant. On anyone present. Or do I?"
He threw his head back and let out a grating laugh, then turned to the barkeep - not the one the rat-like man was sitting at, though; quite fortunately, the room had more than one.
"Bartender!" Cassidy demanded, pointing an accusing finger at the man behind the rack, "Hast thou honeymint tea? I have come to relax."

The Sin eater
The man stepped back, dropping into the crowd before reapearing further out. He ordered a shot of thundermar ale and started talking with his fellow patrons. He picked up something about how Ebony was recruiting adventurers, turned this fool down. That would do. The man paid his tab and left an extra silver, then returned to felicity to report his findings.

Praey shook her head and took a few more deep breaths. "Less get outta 'ere befo' 'e wakes up," she whispered, standing to her feet. She was a little shakey, but not too bad. "Ah'll tell yah what ah got when we somewha' safe again."
The troll put up her hood again and walked passed them, headed for the door.
