I go with Jacob and wait for the bread The Goodwifes house is not that far from where you are, and even walking you get there very quickly, Jacob looks confused and says" We have to go back to Anna's house""Now" |

you arrive back in front of Ann's just as she is returning with 3 large loves of bread. Jacob Says" You must not use the words spell magic or supernatural and any other similar words, the Zealots will sacrifice you for sure. The magnified sounds are a by product of a major supernatural threat, the screaming should be separate. but what is causing the magnification.If you use them before the Zealots arrive you will be rated out by one of the townsfolk for a reward. We can hurry back now.Anna hands you the bread one loaf at a time identifing each 1 as she gives them to you"rye""Cinnamon" '" Sourdough" she gives you a very weak smile and says I made the last one, I hope you like it." Without further ado, you arrive i front of Goodwifes house. The crowd of townsfolk have grown to about 100, About a third of them are armed with mostly ragtag improvised weapon a few daggers are sprinkled around, the sight and sounds and smell are as they were.No sign of the zealots.............yet

I sniff the last one to see what it might be. I ask if anyone has a small table they can bring out here. |

ok at the door a large armored dog is barking ferociously, keeping the townsfolk out. , then I say hello to the dog (from a distance) and set myself and Jacob up outside the crowd which is outside the house. That is, house, crowd, then me and Jacob. I try to maintain a neutral appearance. |

I say in a loud and clear voice "Friends! I have the answer to all your woes!"
(Mace not wielded but at the ready, the pumpernickel and sourdough in left and right hands respectively, Anna's bread which I did try to sniff to identify tucked under left arm but not too deep into the armpit).

OOC I dont want to kill 17 people if I can help it
"These folk have arranged this gathering to help you! Accept the bread of wonder in the name of all that is good!" I break pieces of the sourdough and tell the front 3 to distribute to their friends.

Ok, we distribute the bread and I also have a but of the sourdough if any is left. Those that pass out are left alone. I encourage the townsfolk with my eyes not to mess with them. I appear nonthreatening.

Sapphire plate is AC 5, I have the slippery kit which gives +1 and 17 Dex for +2. So I assume AC 2, should have checked earlier. AC 2 if I did all that right.

Jacob walks slowly over to the guy who keeps talking and falling down, Kicks him in the nads and then kicks in the head after he falls down He then spits on him 3 times Needless to say, I don't attack. I tell him to stay down and count to five hundred slowly. I say to Jacob, "Now what about that screaming?" |

They are all out like a light. I want to stop here till one of the other players comes aboard, but you can ask as many questions as you want over in OOC
You are clearing out all the townsfolk and talking to Jacob the whole time.
btw he was lying about his combat abilities, he totally owned that guy w kicks that were expert

I take Jacob for a drink once things are completely settled down. We still need to deal with the screaming as I recall and I do not let that drop. It must be addressed. I also address Jacob's kicking prowess. ( mao I am about to have to stop posting and do work but I can try to add to this tomorrow, late tomorrow) |
