[Rotemdol] [ooc: Banjo is from the Ant Hill. Rotemdol spent few years there with him. The Ant Hill is a safe place for someone like Rotemdol. Rotemdol is nervous, but trying not to show it, due to the fact that a wizard was assassinated, especially since they caught the assassin and tortured her] Rotemdol replies, "The academy of the mind is sure to investigate and start reading people mind. I heard they have been doing it at the gates. You know how I feel about that". [ooc: Banjo knows Rotemdol is very touchy on that subject]. " However I don't think they are keen enough to get into the Ant Hill and if they do ..." Rotemdol pauses to drink. "In any case I should touch with some old friends, haven't been there for a while, it would not do for my reputation to slip"

[Gerryn] Done using her gear, Gerryn thanks the old woman and tips her well. He then set out, thinking about what he'd heard about Ayran Ni . . .

[Rotemdol] .... >"I can tell", Banjo replies, "You don't think they'll blame *you* for >it, do you? You were never anywhere near at the time". >>"In any case I should >>touch with some old friends, haven't been there for a while, it would not >>do for my reputation to slip" >"You know, Rotem, sometimes I think there's far more to you than meets >the eye". "You know Banjo, when they mess with my mind I get really mad and "somewhat" out of control" Rotemdol says. "The first time I killed three of them wizards but in the trial I was found not guilty. I did have to quit the legion. The second time was also bad, I was lucky both times it was outsiders. Now most of the local ones probably know about it and they have not tried to read me in a long time". Rotemdol points at his large black hat, the one with the folded rain resistance cloth attached to it. " You were always laughing at me as being afraid of the rain and than forgetting to use it when the rain comes, well I figured some of them wizards have to see you to try to read your mind or do other nasty trick and I have practiced pulling the cloth down to hide myself" Rotemdol looks at Banjo and Kaiman as they look at each other. "well what can I say wizards make me nervous." he then adds in a strait face "It is probably contagious as many of them look nervous to me when they see me". [ooc is reading someone's mind considered an assault? how are you allowed to protect yourself?]

Currently >short on cash, he needs to make some money as quickly as possible. There are a fair number of people about; mostly human but the occasional kandar. He doesn't see any city guardsmen, but there are a pair of Knights of Kardak strutting down the street. -- Tim Hall, http://www.kalyr.com "It's a fine line between stupid and clever" - Spinal Tap

"You killed... three wizards", Kaiman repies, aghast, "How in The Liberator's name did you manage that?". "I'd still be careful", Banjo says. "If they perceive you as a threat one of them might just decide to rub you out anyway. But everyone seems to have other things on their minds at the moment, what with the attacks on the Karazthan and all. >[ooc is reading someone's mind considered an assault? how are you allowed >to protect yourself?] [Yes, reading someone's mind without permission is counted as an assault. If that person is attacking you at the time you can claim self-defence] -- Tim Hall, http://www.kalyr.com "It's a fine line between stupid and clever" - Spinal Tap

" Its an old story" Rotemdol replies "and as you know I forgot a lot. >From what I could find out later, I was doing my rounds not far from here, when we came across something suspecious. I saw something I should not and they decided to edit my mind and remove some memories. Everything was going fine so they did not have any bodyguards. I snapped and went breserk. You know I was a bit younger and I could still fight then (:-)). Well that was that as far as this wizards were concerned.". "There was a trial but apperently them wizards where not very popular and anyway it was considered self defence. I never did find out who the wizards were. Everybody from the legion was saying what a nice guy I am so I got off with no problems." Rotemdol adds "you know now days I am a lot more peace loving. I am doing well as a jugler and hey people even like me in the Ant-Hill " When Kaiman looks at him incrediously he adds defensively " so I miss with my knives from time to time, no one is dead yet". Banjo is having hard time not laughing as he sais " you know Rotemdol in practice you almost never miss but I guess doing a show must be very distracting" Kaiman mumbles under his breath that anyone, especially Kendar, who likes to stroll at night in the Ant-Hill can"t be all that peacfull. Rotemdol ignores Kaiman mumbling as a he turns to Banjo " as to wizards, I am not looking for trouble and they know that. If they read me I get mad so I try not to get into situation in which this is likely. Like you said, even if the law is on my side" (Banjo looks very suprised when Rotemdol claims that he said anything like it ) Rotemdol stops confused and adds " well what I meant was that if I have too many incidents there will be problems I am sure."
