Title : Worlds Collide
Filename : WCEpi1.zip
Author : Jabberwocky
Contact info : Dilligaff@charter.net
Date of release : Aug 2003
Version : 1.0
Description : I was spotted during a job last week. Probably because the poor sod was lying face down in the gutter as I jumped from a second story window. I felt sorry for the poor guy. He was riddled with so many arrows, I felt we had something in common. I was about to put him out of my mind when I swear on a pile of gold THIS high, he called out Keeper. Not something you want being bellowed in the street. He earned a healing potion for that one, but it was not enough.
Seems our archery target was a guard in the employment of one Sir John. A knight of some feudal area 2 days ride outside the city. All the information I could dig up on him pointed to a kind, caring lord that was well liked and respected by his people. Until last month. Then very bad things started to happen. A few well placed questions among the Keepers revealed their knowledge of this sudden change. They sent one of their agents to gather information, Keeper Andrew's report is overdue.
They are financing this little scouting operation, with the following terms:
I find out what happened to thier agent.
I can keep anything that isn't nailed down. Or anything I can pry up.
I find Sir John, and get some info on his sudden change of heart.
I have to get a good map of the Keep. At least 3/4 of it. Information like this might be, usefull, if the Hammers have to be..... tipped off.
and most of these old castles and keeps have a back door, for emergencies. Much as I would like to see the Order of the Hammer throw themselves against the walls in an all out siege, a back door might be just the edge they would need.
***There are DEDx arrows in this FM, and they are not bound to a weapon key. To get to these arrows, you have to cycle through the weapon loadout. In my case this was Number pad + and - Your keys may vary.***
