[Black Tower, Narag's Chamber]

This chamber more closely resembles a beautiful forest of all different types of trees, from pine to oak. There are walls to this room, but they appear so much like a real forest that you can only sense them by touch. The ceiling looks exactly like the mid-day sky, and the light in this room apparently comes from no particular source, although you can almost feel the sun's radiance upon you. There is a small lake beside a log cabin. Smoke rises up softly from the chimney, and you can hear the sounds of several animals coming from behind it, mainly the sounds of a pack of howling wolves. You also see a black hawk and a grey wolf.

Obvious exits: out

The grey wolf looks up at you intelligently.
The black hawk looks at you intelligently.

You see the hawk rapidly change shape and start to grow dark-elven features, and suddenly Lord Blackmoon appears before you.
You see the wolf rapidly change shape and start to grow half-elven features, and suddenly Narag appears before you.

Narag says,"Hello, welcome travelers to my chamber, my name is Narag and this is my brother Blackmoon."

Narag glances at Blackmoon.

Blackmoon whispers,"I'll tell you what I know about bein a thief and a good lil rogue if you want."

Blackmoon says,"...or Narag here can tell you what ya wanna know about the good and the bad of being a ranger, and using two weapons."

Blackmoon snickers.

Narag hits Blackmoon on the arm playfully and says, "Bro, you know I like what I do and you like what you do."

Narag says, "or would you like to hear what we think of some things good and bad about the lands?"

Blackmoon says,"follow me."

Blackmoon holds your hand.
Blackmoon's group just entered a small cabin.

You reach the cabin and Blackmoon kicks out a stool for you to sit on, and sits down in a padded chair. He pulls a wineskin out from under his chair and pours you both a glass.

Blackmoon says,"The first thing I have found out is that dark elves work well as rogues, as do humans, but I am partial to the dark elves."

Blackmoon says,"The next thing is your stats, you want a high strength, reflexes, and dex, bein handy with disarming traps and what not."

Blackmoon says,"Okay last thing to go for is aura to keep your TD high...DON'T ask me what your TD is cause I don't really know...All I know is that it deals with how spells work against yea."

Blackmoon chuckles as he takes a long swig from his wine and leans back in his chair.

Blackmoon says,"Next thing is training, you have a few choices. You can be a real good picker, a real good killer, or a combination of a little of both."

Blackmoon says,"First I'll talk about a real good picker, thats how I trained. First you want to triple in picking and disarming, at least once in physical, twice if you can, armor use, weapon of choice, perceptionm hiding, and some pickpocketing when you can."

Blackmoon says,"Next is the good picker-killer, a good balance of both. You will want to double in ambush, picking, disarming, armor, weapon of choice, perception, hiding, and physical, and single anything you want."

Blackmoon rubs his chin thoughtfully and stretches.

Blackmoon says,"Last is go for the pure killer, thats when you train in all of the above if you can, except picking and disarming, and always train combat maneuvers, possibly even double CM."


Blackmoon tilts your diamond back and forth watching the light play off if it.

Blackmoon says, “by the way this will cover what you want to know from us.”

Blackmoon chuckles to himself.
