Re: The Black Dragon's Den

"I've had a few different partners." The drow admits. "My oldest two were with the first woman I loved, Sh'indra. Then I had a daughter with an elven woman I fell in love with on my first forays into the Surface. I didn't know about her until she found me in the Nexus, actually, I tho...

Re: The Black Dragon's Den

"We tend to have a bad reputation everywhere, it seems." Raril agrees. "To add to it, I'm a Lycanthrope, too." He makes a bit of a clawing motion at Jace, as a joke. "Fortunately I'd had most of my kids before that hit me. The ones we had after I was afflicted were chimeras,...

"I want them to be happy, too, of course." Raril says. "Alive is kind of a bare minimum, but with drow you take what you can get."

"Dang, I can't catch his scent." Landon declares. "Maybe I can smell that critter he had in the cage?" The werewolf backtracks to the desk, sniffing around looking for something that stood out.

Landon grabs his things and sets out with the girls. "I thought you were napping." He says to Asami, a bit annoyed she decided to tag along.

Once outside the pavilion, the daywalker sniffs the air, searching for the familiar scent of their teacher.

Re: The Black Dragon's Den

Raril raises his coffee cup to Jace. "May your coming little one turn out well, too."

"It's hard to judge how 'well' someone's doing in my family. It depends on your perspective. But they're all alive, at least. I don't know if I can ask for more than that."

Raril nods, agreeing. The kid didn't seem too bad, at least to him.

"Yeah, life doesn't come with a manual, unfortunately. It would be a lot easier if it did." The drow says. "It sure would help with fatherhood."

"I'm glad I can't get pregnant." Raril says. "My brother was pregnant once. Has a son now. Saw him a few Spooktobers ago. Hopefully he's not as bad as his father. Hopefully that paladin's set him right."

[Hunting Class] Landon picks up his arrows and scowls a bit at Asami's back. It seemed Agate was ok with the peanut brittle desk. At least she could eat it. The day-walker stuffs the arrows back in his quiver and sits at his desk. He looks at the cage with curiosity. "What's in the cage, Mr. H...

Raril nods. "Yeah, blood doesn't factor much into it, sometimes. Gods, I know my mother hated me, and my brother." The drow shrugs and takes another sip of coffee. "But that's not unusual where I'm from. Love, as wonderful as it is, is truly rare in the Underdark."

Re: PREP Highschool

[Hunting Class] Landon, not sitting directly next to his quiver, it being on the ground while he was up on the desk, doesn't react quite fast enough to stop Asami from snatching a few. They're nice arrows, fletched with grey goose feathers. They were tipped with small blunt heads for birds and smal...

Raril's a bit surprised by the masculine voice but doesn't let it show. "Sorry to have misgendered you. I know that feeling." There was many a time in the past the drow had been mistaken for a woman. "I'm Raril. I own the place." He waves a hand at the bar around them. "Well...

The drow blinks again. Why was there a unicorn in his bar? No they've lived here for years now, haven't they? But those ponies weren't like this one. And this one was apparently very pregnant. Had a little friend too. Was he still dreaming? Raril waves at the goblin behind the bar for some coffee. A...

Re: The Black Dragon's Den

Raril emerges from his office, stretching and yawning. How long had he been asleep? What had he been dreaming? How did he get here?

The drow blinks and smacks his lips. "Coffee." He decides, and heads towards the bar with that goal in mind.

The pavilion was open to the elements on four sides, but contained desks, a blackboard, and a roaring space heater to keep out most of the cold. In addition to his scho...

Re: The Glittering Garnet Cafe

A young woman in her early twenties walks into the cafe. She pauses a moment in the doorway to stamp the snow from her boots. Her honey colored curls spill from under the band of her pink ear warmers, above which a small set of red horns poke out. Victoria Rock, known to her friends as Tori, is a ha...
