Mashan finally arrived at Water Deep after a long swim from sea .... He had to jump over board to avoid getting killed due to some confusion with the captain an his wench..... Twas all lies of course ... but he still jumped rather then risk his neck.
On his first eve in Water Deep he ran into an a man who claimed to be an actor/singer .... being new to the town they teamed up an started exploring .... while on there way to an inn fer the night they were attached by a thief and Mashans new friend was promptly killed ...
As Mashan lay in a puddle of his own blood making peace to his god's along came Talio. Talio promptly dispatched the thief an healed Mashan. "I owe you a life debt" Mashan said an a new friendship was formed.
Talio is a native of Water Deep an over the next several weeks the two of them worked/explored together. Once Mashan got the lay of the land he started adventuring on his own a bit .... never to forget his new blood brother or the debt he owes him.

While returning to his new home the Dripping Dagger, Mashan over hears a conversation outside. Several people are talking to Mirt the money lender so Mashan sticks to the shadows an listens up.
A rouge by the name of Jarlen spotted him at once and called attention to his hiding spot .... in the confusion that proceeded a paladin drew steel on him an called him a thief (he will pay for that in blood).
After much discussion an traded insults the group moved inside an Mashan followed. It was decided that there was adventure to be had in the crypts below Water Deep ... an Mashan was invited to join the group.
The crypts were dangerous .... an Mashan made sure to stay well out of harms way .... twas slow going an many undead were killed that eve when Mashan saw his chance to pay back the rude paladin.
We were all hiding in a hall way with many monsters at the end .... when Mashan snuck up an shot one of the monsters .... it flew into a rage and charged the group ... killing the paladin and cleric instantly.
While the rest of the party was busy running Mashan snuck up an looted the paladin .... kicking his corpse an cursing him one last time. Revenge was Mashans that eve ...... as he snuck out of the crypts and back to the Dagger for the eve with fresh loot to sell .... Har! .... drinks are on me tonight.

Mashan met another guild brother by the name of Yha .... an many adventures are sure to follow with him. While lounging in the Dagger with his new brother Yha who walks in but Talio alive an well.
Tis going to be a grand day. With his two sword brothers they devise a scheme to go back to the crypts .... but we need some bodies to throw at the undead.
After a little searching we find the bodies we need .... an oaf of a barbarian name sky something or other..... a female half orc ... I cant remember her name but she served her purpose well ...
Twas also a half elf female .... she took a liking to Mashan .... but the crypts were not a place to mess with a cute female.
Yha is attached to the the barbarian oaf ... so we swore off killing em .... but the females were fair game.
So with several bodies to throw at the undead we were off to the crypts ... Once in the crypts it didnt take long fer the half orc to die .... we could of saved her ... but healing cost money ... an I didnt like her anyway.
As me an Talio were looting her the Barbarian was getting all upset over missing children .... we had to lie to him about missing children to get him to come with us ... Har! ... whatever it takes eh.
Further into the crypt what do we see but the spirit of a missing child !!! Of all the crazy things ..... I never thought to see a child .... heck next time I lie about something im going to make it a grand lie full of wenches an gold .... see ifin that one comes true.
We proceed to another crypt when several spirits come out an ask fer our help in putting them to rest .... well I dont like ghost or undead that much ... an it didnt sound like there was any loot involved ... so I left the party an headed to the dagger ....
Har!! the half orcs gear should buy a few drink this eve

After several days of working solo .... Mashan and Yha hook up again fer some adventure .... seems the rat hills are a good spot to find some. All we need now is some bodies .... with very little searching we find three willing victims.
So me an Yha .. along with two humans and a gnome head off is search of loot.... let me tell you the rat hills are filthy ..... I didnt like me new boots touching em ... as we work are way threw we come upon a sewer entrance ... you want to go down there I say ? .... I am not happy.
Not only am in some foul sewers ... im apparently the only scout worth a dam that the party has .... tis a nerve wracking affair being in the lead ... I like it not.... we ran into a few minor encounters when I had enough of the place .... after wrenching up me guts in a puddle on the floor ... I ran out of there as fast as I could .. swearing never to go back.
Back on the surface we start poking around ... killing any goblins or orcs we run into ... things were going great until I spotted the ghosts. I dont like ghosts to begin with .... but Yha assured me we could killem so we set up a line an proceeded to attach em.
Well these ghost were more powerful then Yha had thought .... and none of are party could even hurt em .... I decided to leave the bodies to there own fate .... and the ghosts promptly killed all three of em .....
As I was getting out of there one of the ghosts kissed me *shudders* .. it was so cold .... my head was spinning .... an I though I was a dead man ... but some how I managed to escape .... lucky fer us while the ghost were busy chasing me ... Yha was busy looting are ex companions corpses.
We met up at the dagger later that eve an split the loot .... Dang ... some of them bodies had a bit oh gold ..... Har !!! much drinking tonight I say.

Tis early in the morning ... an Im returning to the dagger after a good night of work .... when I come across a bloke fighting with a bug bear ... now this bug bear is a nasty one ... Ive seen em kill three other people so I decide to hang out an wait to loot the corpse.
It didnt take long ... as I start picking threw his things another bloke runs up with his sword out yelling "HEAL MY FRIEND !!!" .. ya right ... like I would do that.
So I say to the bloke "Do I look like a healer ?.. I cant heal the fool." ... the bloke gets all mad an yells at me "YOU SHALL DIE AS WELL" ... and hits me with his sword .... In front of guards an everything ... the bloke dam near killed me in that one hit.... he chased me a bit but went back to the corpse after I made it to the dagger.
I stager into the Dagger an collapsed on the floor ... thinking im a dead man ... when in comes Yha .... he patches me up as best he can an hears my story about what happened ... Yha gets furious ... ive never seen em so mad ... so off we go fer some pay back.
When we find the bloke him an his friend are picking another fight with the same bug bear ... bloody fools .... Yha tells me to wait till after there battle ... good advise I say.
After the blokes get done with the bug bear we attach the bloke that dam near killed me ..... I get a good shot in with me bow when he starts chasing me ...... as Im running away I turn an fire .... "THUNK" right in the eye I get em an he goes down. I pull out me dagger ... rush over an tell him Mashan is killing you then proceed to slit his throat.
His friend rushed up right about that time an attaches me .. but Yha is there with death magic an the bloke goes down .... I casually reach over an slit his throat as well.
As we are looting the bodies a guard comes up an starts asking silly questions ... I thought we were gona have to kill the guard as well .... Yha plays dead and falls to the ground ... I start screaming at the guard "HELP HIM" .... "DONT LET HIM LAY THERE" .... "DO SOMETHING"
Har !! ... the guard gets confused an runs away .... good show Yha.
We move the bodies to a hidden place an proceed to split the loot .... Har !!! ....... drinks are on me Yha ..... yer gold is no good this day.

I received word that my mates are all dead …. Yha got hung in the great sands … and Talio got eaten by some ogres on the sword cost … with no mates .. and a heavy heart I left fer Loud Water.
I figured since I earned a spot oh gold or so in tha deep .. I could wench it away ina strange town … should be nuff ta last me fer a few moons.
The road ta Loud Water was full oh bandits … it took every bit oh luck I had ta make it .. an most oh me blood was spilt along the way.
Finally I arrive battered an beaten to this new town .. when who do I run into but Jarlen … the rouge I met in tha deep … after a few tense moments of drawn steel an crossed swords .. he invited me to a Tavern outside oh the city .. a much needed rest it was … I spent several weeks in the brothel there recovering my strength.
Only thing of note that happened them weeks was one night … ina drunken haze … some big bloke came in … with a huge sword strapped to his back … talking bout all the riches he found and how powerful he was … the bloke got on me nerves he did … so later that night I followed em inta the wilds .. twas not long afore he met up wit some orcs .. he layed em low fer sure .. but he was sorely wounded.
Being the nice guy that I am .. I offered to carry his swag fer em in his wounded state … he didn’t seem ta like the idea .. an swords were drawn.
As I was heading back to the tavern with my purse full oh gold .. I was wondering how much I could sell my new two handed sword fer.

After weeks oh resting .. im feelin tha itch ta travel again …. But I wasn’t spectin a trip this big.
One night .. in comes Jarlen with some wench … shes a spell caster or so she says .. an hes promised ta take er to da dales … with nothing else goin on fer me … I agreed ta travel wit em.
We left out oh Loud Water ona rainy day .. an headed to Arabel … havin never been to Cormyr.. I was looking fwd to it.
With sore feet .. an a need fer drink ana wench … we finally made it ta Cormyr .. we met up wit two blokes once we got there …. a human ana dwarf … at dis dump oh a taven called da bunch oh grapes.
So five strong .. we headed to da dales … I didn’t like are new company to much .. an traded words wit em often… the land is wild .. an many opportunity ta get rid oh dem blokes would present itself.
Bout a week into tha journey .. the opportunity came up…. I was scouting .. an seen a tribe oh Orcs over a ridge … I called a halt .. an told jarlen an his wench I needed ta speak wit em in private … told dem blokes we would meet up over the ridge… HAR !!!
As I was in the middle oh telling Jarlen some nonsense .. we heard the sounds oh combat … leaving the wench were she was .. me an Jarlen approached the ridge slowly … only ta find da two blokes layin on da ground .. bleedin from many holes in em .. we split up an killed da remaining orcs … when we got done .. tha dwarf was still breathing .. I corrected that problem when no one was looking an helped myself to his gear.
Later that night .. Jarlen asked me why I didn’t tell dem blokes about the Orcs … with hands on me blades … spectin ta ave ta kill em …. I told em cus I didn’t like em … he just roared in laughter an clapped me on da back … he said we was gona be getting along fine.

I agreed .. I could always cut me loses ifin it turned out bad.
Spent a few days in da dales .. working tha locals for der gold .. pickins were slim .. but I made nuff fer drink an a few wenches. Wit not a nary bloke da wiser… then it all went ta hell.
Not sure how it happened .. as I had not been caught in dis town once … but some bloke came up ta me in da wilds …. accusin me oh stealin from his friend .. Id never seen em afore … an he had dis big ole bear wit em … so first thing I did was lay a few traps an told em ta beware oh em … a step closer an he would be a dead man….

We gets back ta town .. an a dwarf joins em .. both acusin me oh stealing … now im thinking ima have ta kill both oh em .. when dis elf who new Jarlen came apon us .. an spoke on my behaf … seems his word was good nuff fer them two blokes .. an they shoved off… but it seems dat was only da beginning…. An I would ave ta kill a man afore I left.

Bout now im getting sick oh dis town .. im sposed ta be meetin up wit Jarlen in Arabel .. just been enjoying the local whore house to much…. Ive yet ta be caught doing anything … but seems cus ima stranger .. I got a bad reputation … bloody country dirt farmers !!!
Im walkin round town doing some shoppin fer me trip ta Arabel .. when dis human … a powerfull priest oh Tyr or some such .. walks up acusin me oh dis an dat …chances are good I did most oh what he was saying .. but I called em a bloody fool anyway .. an insulted his god fer good measure …. he got all red in da face an started castin spells … da first one blasted me in da chest an dam near killed me … so I start running when da second one blasts me in da back .. me mind goes numb an I cant much member what happened .. but it seems I hit da shadows ina doorway just in time .. an he couldn’t find me when he rounded da corner looking…. Time fer some payback I say … never try an kill a man an leave em breathing.
It took two weeks ta get this bloke were I wanted em … two weeks oh livin like a rat … hiding .. watching an waiting…. I spent all me gold on traps … potions an scrolls fer this job .. and chances were good .. I wasn’t gona make it out alive … but I had ta try … cant be leavin a debt unpaid after all.
Finaly I got me chance .. I was stalkin the priest one night in da wilds .. I found a good spot an laid every trap I had … I then drank all me potions .. an read all me scrolls … when that was done .. I approached the bloke from behind an tried to stick both me swords in em … they bounced off . BLOODY HELLS !!!! .. I cant hit em wit me swords .. the priest turned around an laughed at me .. I took one more swing then ran.
He calmly blasted me wit a spell … an even wit me potions an scrolls .. it hurt like hell … then he started chasing me… as I rounded the corner to me ambush .. another spell tore into me .. one more oh them an I was a dead man… I ran avoidin all me traps .. an was going for my hiding spot when he rounded the corner .. the first trap barely scratched em .. the second one not much more … so he kept running after me .. then me traps started hurting him .. by Umberlees swollen tit … he ate 6 oh me traps an was still coming … he didn’t even try to stop … bastard was so confident …. He got to my last trap … an was in bad shape .. finally he stopped right in front oh it … so I jumped out oh my hiding spot an shot at em … HAR !! .. an the fool ran right over me last trap .. as he lay there .. bleeding ta death .. I gulped some healing .. then walked up to em .. told em how his god was a pathetic god .. an killed em… stashed the body ina cave an fled the dales …. HAR !!!! … but that priest had some gold … I ended up with more gold then I started with …. Seems priests oh Tyr like ta ave some coin on em .. ima ave ta member that fer the next one I meet.

On tha road ta Arabel …… Mashan runs into this insane priest .. tis a gnome .. who worships an elf or some such … bloke says he needs help with a lock on a certain chest …. he pays me 50 gold to come with em an help... ptomisin that there be real treasure ta be had.
With nothing better ta do at the time .. I head into da wilds oh Cormy … see what da gnome be all worked up bout…. The going be hard .. an we be spendin more time backtracking ta avoid orcs an ogers … and worse…
Da few times dey spotted me we had ta run fer are lives … cost us all are healing an we was not feeling tha best.
After days oh this .. we finally make it to the tower the crazy priest was raving about ..… an ancient building .. in the middle of the wilds … I could smell the treasure in there an was looking forward ta being a rich man.
We enter the tower wit me in da lead .. seems im always stuck in da lead anymore … not da best place ta be ifin ya ask me… in da third room there be an old desk .. a bed … an a door … as I enter ta look round .. the bloody gnome walks by me an up to da desk … he reaches down an tries ta open da draw …all hell broke loose
The desk exploded.. an blew the gnome across tha room … in several pieces … when I woke up days later … I was burned very badly .. an could barely stand … I limped over to what was left oh tha gnome .. an checked em fer anything oh value … bastard was poor he was .. not like dem priests oh Tyr. Cursing the gnome for a fool .. an me for a bigger fool fer followin em .. I limp out side an try to make it to Arabel.
Wit no healing on me … barley able to walk … I try to make it threw da wilds…. Luck was wit me most da journey until Umberlee got bored an played a joke on me .. I spot an orc camp an go ta sneakin round it….an walk right inta a bloody ogre … an da bastard spotted me limpin threw his woods…. I dink me last potion oh speed .. an start ta running … noin dat one hit from em an ima dead man…. seems da orcs wanted in on tha action an started chasin me as well … I was almost out oh bow range … when an arrow sunk in my back … I went down an couldn’t get back up… I was a dead man.
As I lay there ready ta die … watchin tha ogre an orcs getting closer .. three blokes stumbled onto the scene … two humans an a dwarf … they didn’t see da ogre an charged da orcs like fools…. while dey was fighting da orcs .. the ogre came up an crushed one oh da humans skulls wit one swing .. the other two fled once he fell … an da orcs an ogre chased em… HAR !! but Umberlee has a nasty sense oh humor.
I lay there fer a few more hours .. gathering me strength … an drifting off ta sleep…. Final I feel well enough ta travel .. so I walk over ta check da human fer swag … HAR !!! but he had some swag … and healing .. all the healing I could want … I could no even carry half oh his swag …I spent a few moments pickin threw for his best loot an drinkin his potions like dey was rot gut … ahh but da road ta Arabel don’t seem so bad now.
With nothing better ta do at the time .. I head into da wilds oh Cormy … see what da gnome be all worked up bout…. The going be hard .. an we be spendin more time backtracking ta avoid orcs an ogers … and worse…

Finally I arrive in arabel … I leave word for Jarlen and have a walk round the city … talking to the locals .. checking there purses fer coin .. an seeing what I see.
I got offered a few jobs … but Mashan is no errand boy .. so I told em what they could do with there jobs … besides .. I didn’t need them to make coin .. I have skills.
One night I decide ta have a closer look at this house …. Looked like an easy score .. an I was running low on gold again … seems I could never have nuff gold.
I wait fer the right time … an make sure all is clear … the lock on the back door is childs play to me .. with hardly a thought I open it an peer inside … no guards .. HAR !!! but this is gona be easy… I check the first floor out .. an gather some swag .. nothing ta brag bout .. but enough fer some wenches an drink … time fer the second floor.
At the top oh he the stairs I listen real good like … an hear nothing … tis along hall that ends at a closed door … I check the door out an push it open real slow like … ahh .. but this must be the place … in tha room is a huge bed .. a writing table .. a chest a dresser an a few wooded crates .. I hit the chest first … looking it over real good like I test the lock … BLOODY HELLS !! .. it has a magic ward on it I didn’t see … this red force blasts me an sucks my very life force … still alive .. an in a bad mood .. I continue with the chest .. HAR !!! .. Umberlee is smiling on me she is .. there be a few gold coins .. several gems .. and a potion .. I stash the swag an head to tha desk.
The magic ward hit me worse then I thought … as I stumbled over a childs trap .. I heard it spring tight an felt several needles pierce me flesh … the next I remember .. I awoke on the floor hours later …. Praise Umberlee fer the owners not coming home … in my pathetic state .. I decided ta leave off the rest oh the room an get out oh there as fast as I could .. it was day light when I hit the street again .. an a bloody human was outside the door … not sure if she spotted me or night .. I decided ta kill er…
I stashed the body in the house I was just in … an took an erratic path back to the inn I was staying at .. deciding ta wait word from Jarlen afore I set forth again.
