heist

Kael sat in a surprisingly spacious ‘study’ room, empty for moment of any other souls. Kael had been drawing notes onto a piece of parchment paper. He had created a crude but legible drawing of the Academy’s east wing. It was reasonably scaled, and sprinkled with nails to signify obstacles...

There had been murmurs around the city and outlier settlements outside Vel Cirak that a monster had claimed the life of a merchant on the road. Many were quick to blame a werewolf, something capable of ruining the life of a loving family, but Cleo knew there had to be more to it. Yes, the facts...

It was a job like any other. Dark alleys, private residence, acclaimed jewelled sceptre. Lord Ballfort was one of the more ostentatious nobles of Elbion the kind who spent more of socks than some people earned in a year. So morally, this was fine. Least Caits thought so. It took less time than...

Four Feather Inn, Cortosi Coast "The plan is sound, but there's a small window of opportunity," Jeriah explained. "The prisoner is being held at Rough Shore Spire, but he'll be sent to the Black Bay on a Red Reaver ship within a few weeks. If they find out who he is, suddenly the Reavers know...

"He just has it on his mantlepiece like some kinda... some kinda trophy, Biscuit!" The small green dragon looked up at her from his small but mighty stash of gold pieces he had collected over the years. A small little rag he used to polish them hung from his mouth. To anyone else, the dragon...

The midday sun crept over the streets of Alliria, the many tall buildings of the Noble's Quarter casting an oppressive shadow over the streets below. Many of these homes were three, four, even five stories tall just for the residences, all of which contained the who's-who of the city. Entire...

Location: Aionus Citadel, The Vaulted Keep. Kalitian Desert. Population: 1000. 100 Priests, 900 Templar Knights. Number of Vaults: Unknown Entry into the citadel was a hard-won privilege, one that Selina Della Altas intended to make the most of. Within this keep hundreds of clerics and templar...

Dornoch - The Painted Lady Not the nicest tavern in the world, The Painted lady had always held a sort of charm to it. Never quiet, never overwhelming. A constant stream of miscreants, thieves, dock-workers, and dozens of other slices of life roamed through the tavern at all times. No one could...

Alliria was known as the world's merchant capital Gems, Weapons, and Magics all could be bought for a price Greedy could make an honest living here But instead our Goblin rolled the dice Greedy had joined a crew, lead by an Orc named Haru Who had organized a job to bring in much coin...

The first stage of each and every successful robbery was deciding what you wanted to steal and why you wanted to steal it. Alexios had already confirmed both of these things on a personal level and on a 'party' level with his soon-to-be partner in crime. So with the goal in mind there was...

Jazat, as a rule, didn't dislike anyone really because he never saw anything he did as being personal on any real level. It wasn't personal when he killed someone as a mercenary because he was just doing a job; it was personal for whoever had hired him to do the killing, sure, but what did that...

Alexios Marxan is wanting to make his mark in Oban but in order for his plans to all start coming together he needs two things rather quickly; money and the ability to use that money to extend his influence. This bank job would give him both and do much the same for any like-minded heist...

The Black Toad was… damp. The pouring rain outside had no trouble winding its way through the warped and broken roof and down through the rafters of the tiny building. Buckets and pots of all sorts had been set around the establishment to catch the drips and streams, and the smell of mildew...

You receive a letter. It has reached your hands in any number of possible ways. Perhaps a courier handed it to you, perhaps a bird dropped it in your lap, or perhaps it simply appeared at your door. It is sealed with a symbol you do not recognize: a small songbird. It reads: Dear friend, You...

Melfa Florinthe Othal William de Courcey "So the plan is simple..." started Jeriah as the fire crackled. He looked entirely disappointed by this as his gaze passed around the campsite. He preferred a plan that made William turn the air blue in frustration half way through the explanation...

Oban - Warehouse District Kekrizh "This is a wonderful idea." Kala said as she tapped the map which had been laid out on the small crate. Her fingers ran over the drawing there, poking at one of the exits which had been masterfully depicted. The map of course had been stolen from a local...

The Grand Bazaar of Ragash was a sight to behold. Beneath the relentless sun lay a sprawling city within a city of multicolored tents, delicious aromas, and people from around the world. It was loud and in constant motion, and the wares on display ranged from simple fruits and sweets to exotic...

In retrospect, maybe Teodron should’ve been more stealthy in his reconnaissance of the shop before him. He’d been so excited to finally have found a clue in his mother’s disappearance that he’d rushed off without thinking. Granted, stealth wasn’t his strong suit so he probably would’ve drawn...

Silence. In the halls of the College of Elbion, students normally came and went according to their studies or the whims of a faculty member. Today, the regular shuffles of the passing students were not to be heard in the halls. Not that students weren’t coming and going, nor faculty attempting...

Mid-morning. Elbion in sight. And the carriage rolled along the road, preceded by a wagon full of personal guards, half a dozen in all. Each speaking to his wealth. His influence. As did the carriage itself. Covered, luxurious cushioned seats, glass windows on the two doors. A man of many means...
