- Play -- Koshi, 19:35:56 03/04/03 Tue
The coinshifter trots in, her hoofs noisily banging against the floor. She throws her silver braid over her shoulder and trots to the bar. She signals to the bartender, who brings her a drink. She sips it then pulls out her harp. She strums it lightly to tune it, and then bursts into song, her cool soprano drifting through the tavern.
"The mighty hawk soars through the sky,
Over forests and rivers he did fly,
All forest creatures hear it's mighty cry,
The spirit of the hawk will never die
The majestic eagle brave and free,
A more beautiful thing there can not be,
People stop to see,
The majestic eagle, brave and free.
The swift owl, full of might,
but he only hunts at night,
He kills his pray before it can even put up a fight,
But the flee from the light,
The soaring falcon, so graceful and fast,
When it's prey see's the hawk, they have seen there last,
He soars higher then a sailing ship's mast,
The reign of the falcon will never be past."
She holds out the last note, and her voice fades slowly into silence. She sets her harp down and takes another sip of her ale. She looks around, curious, sipping her mug.

- Dismay -- A'rak~Kador & Wessae~Shrinae, 02:05:27 02/20/03 Thu
A'rak crouches on a stool, sipping a cold drink and gazing off into space. It was so WEIRD to be here, and even weirder to be one of the only ones with a strange name, an honorific. It sets me apart, I feel different.
No, it doesn't. Your attitude does. You have to let some things go, buddy. She's not coming back. Kador says gently, rumbling in sympathy and laying his head on A'rak's shoulder.
Another figure walks in, sighing and flopping on a nearby stool, her head hanging down tiredly, dark brown curls dribbling over her neck. The large yellow and green Vae on her shoulder tosses curls hurriedly over her neck and the gold Kilven that follows yawns and stretches. Tilting her head to the side, she recognizes her brother and smiles faintly. "Hey." Said quietly, enough to catch A'rak's attention.
"'Sae?" He asks, just as quietly, his voice infused with some disbelief. A nod confirms it as the two Kilvens greet each other. "'Sae, where'd you get that thing?" He asks, pointing to the Vae.
"From the tree. I was looking for Channa and...well, he just dropped right in front of me. Say hello to Metatron." Wessae says proudly, holding the preening Vae in front of her brother. A'rak waves faintly, and Wessae's eyes narrow. "You miss her, don't you?" Without another word, she places her free arm on her brother's and sighs. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be. There'll be time to get over it." The young man admonishes, staring into space again.

A young woman walks in, her face covered by the hood of her dark cloak. She sits down at one of the barstools and siganls to the bartender. She pulls back her hood to reveal dark hair with silvery streaks. She reaches up and brushes it behind her ear. She looks at the bartender as he comes over to her. "Yes, I would like a drink please." she says to him and lounges back against the counter and looks at the tavern around her.

Rehvah smiles lazily at Drueila before bouncing back to his footpaws and strumming a chord on his harp. The eerie tune sings itself out his mouth and instrument...
"The Kilven flung his mighty head,
To face the sky and roar,
His eyes were tinged a fiery red,
Like some beast of ancient yore.
Ride the wind, O massive brown,
Spread thy wings and glide,
The hapless prey thou shalt down,
The winds of time thou shalt ride.
Dive and lilt with brassy grace,
Strike with perfect ease,
Through cloud and void thou shalt race,
Like an earthy, violent breeze.
Oh, an earthy, violent breeze...."
Waving his tail to keep time, the white Tokathe keeps up the notes for a while longer. After a while, he lets them slide into the usual rumblings of the tavern.

In a sudden rush of wind, the door swings open to admit a shrouded figure, eight feet tall and jointed...wrongly. The Shifter is blacker than the night outside, almost-gray skin patches in places with black scales, huge footpaws treading silently upon the wooden planks. Squeezing through the doorframe awkwardly follows a melanistic Kilven, fur so impossibly dark a green it is virtually black, and dashed with a gray of a similar shade and pure black. Slight fringes of a paler smoke run across her eyeridges and snout. The immense creature, easily the size of a large bronze, gazes around grimly, right eye blinded with a long scar. Her bonded, the mercenary-CoinShifter, settles at the counter, far from the others gathered there, and orders a mug of green ale. Raidae hunkers beside her, silently lavishing in 'her' tavern. Kain glares around, letting no one see her face.

- *Enters the Tavern* -- Drueila, 17:07:56 10/26/02 Sat
The coinshifter opens the door and comes in quietly, unnoticed over the din and activity. She looks about curiously and despite the many new sights and sounds she is unintimidated. She strides calmly yet purposefully towards the bar and the creature behind it, easily slipping through the crowded interior of the room. Standing for a moment, as if carefully considering what to do next, she sees a tokathe about to leave his stool at the bar. When he leaves, she seats herself in a dignified yet casual manner and asks the bar tender for a creiberry froth, the first words she has spoken since arriving. Her voice is gentle yet resonant, she does not speak loud though she is heard and understood nonetheless. Politely she thanks the brown Tokathe that brings her drink and turns on her stool to survey the creatures present. None of which take any notice of her. she wonders.

The door is pushed open by a snowy-furred hand, which is connected to a lanky male of a Tokathe. Without further ado, the white gives a nod to teh men, a wink to the ladies, and seats himself at the bar. Rattling at the tabletop until the tender comes, Rehvah orders a glass of the sweetest Zinfandel blush. Sipping at the wine in an inspection, the harper's pleased at the soft fizziness and the low hint of strawberry. Tossing the barkeep a coin with a smile of thanks, the Tokathe settles back to finish his drink before playing. Maybe harp, he loved the harp. Ooh, but he hadn't done the gitar in a while. Yet his piping was always well recieved.... Chuckling mysteriously at his indecision, the white just enjoys the delicious beverge while it lasted...

A grin plays about Emer's lips when she walks into the Inn, she wouldn't bet on anyone recognizing her now. Who woulda thought, that pale, terse greenrider with bird wings and what's that? A swagger? Oh yes, most definitely a swagger. She'd warped the pig's agression into confidence, somehow...The drink she orders is something bitter - that was her only qualification, she hopes it's at least partly alchoholic, because what's the point of coming here if you can't glance seductively up at some unsuspecting young...Well, not Tokathe anyway.
~I miss him.~ Lovely, Falae somehow managed to ruin the moment and bring her carefully built up bravado and courage and grim, stubborn, certainty crashing down around her ears. She doesn't ever need to ask who, and now that the drink is here, she sips it without tasting, though it's burning the small cuts on her lips. It's a big glass, and Emer briefly wonders how she's ever going to get through it - or if she's ever expected to?

The 'Shifter reclines on the air, using her large feet and tail as a balance. She crosses her lithe, yet muscular, arms across her chest, and nods vaguely to Karsky's notation.
"Twenty-five years is a long time to learn the heft of a blade."
A swift roll of her eye takes in G'nyth and Tajor. The mercenary's keen ear takes in his name and her memory tingles wildly. The large, dark oncedragon gives a low trumpet-- much to the dismay of the barkeep-- to the bronze Kilven.
Tajor. Y'used to be Tajath, right? Remember Kain and Raideth?
Kain sips her ale idly, holding up a finger to Karsky. She turns and lifts her head, giving a dour smile to G'nyth, that doesn't reach her eye.

Tenji's eyes skitter between Tokathe and CoinShifters alike, trying to locate someone she might know. Finding no one she makes her way towards the bar and orders her favorite cocktail. Grinning quite obviously yet to herself she can but toast to her own life.

Jabari entered carefully, almost unrecognisable now that he was covered with shaggy fur and looking odly canid. Every so often he still reached up and tugged at one of his ears, wondering what exactly he looked like. His single blind eye seemed to blankly reguard the tavern as his flits directed him to a vacant seat.
He ordered a mug of 'whatever the local ale was' (as he put it) and set about enjoying it, listening contently to the sounds of others around him.

The door swings open. Laughter and noises of the bargoers fall quiet as the tall-and-dark CoinShifter stalks in. She had shed her bladed boots a while back to accomodate her new feet, huge and lizardic. The grizzled sentry takes a brief inspection of the occupants, reading faces briefly, before taking a seat at the bar table. The woman's tail sways back and forth slowly, head still swiveling to get a fuller look. Sometimes she cursed her blinded eye, yet it was satisfying to see the look that it usually brought; fear. Kain held power, in a vague fashion, an silent sentinel that was serious about her job. At least, she used to be. Now, the CoinShifter is a mercenary, and for hire. The dark Kilven follows her in, despite a huge size. Raidae is deadly-protective of her rider, and refuses to leave Kain by herself. Usually. She's in a very satisfied mood right now. Black Kilven Tavern. Well, the green isn't exactly black, but close enough. So she settles on the floor behind the CoinShifter, glaring with her lone eye at all the other bargoers. The woman strokes the head of 'her' Kilven, glaring at the barkeep.
"Green ale."
When he hands over her drink, Kain inspects it for any poisons on instinct. After finding it pure, she takes a sip.
Good?
~Good enough.

A large gold wings in, chirruping happily, in a surprisingly good mood. The 'lizard flickers over to a wall and scratches the note off her leg. Kina jams it onto the wall, an adhesive backing catching the stone and holding there. She cheeps once more before flying out.

*Walking into he tavern and smelling the hops that wafed into her nostrils brought back memories long since repressed. Memories of a better time in a place that she had loved. But, that life had ended and a new one had begun. Her time as a vampire had been long but now it was over and she had to make a new life...a mortal life. A slight breeze caught Tiestra's hair as the door behind her shut with a soft bang. The bar was mostly empty but she knew that if she were to find one of her lost friends this was the place to do it. They had always had drinking games and both of them had never left the tavern afterwards with a clear mind. With all of the different alias' that she had had since then though, no one would recognize her. No matter, sitting down at the bar she gave the bartender's shirt a pull. "The strongest stuff you've got." Without much hesitation the 'tender got her her drink and let her be. They call this strong? She thought as she took a slug. Turning her back to the bar she watched those arounded her. Simply observing them gave her a feeling of knowledge. Her observations is what won her that Kardos game back on Shisunat. Everyone had their little habits...it was in her nature to learn them...*

He sits down at a corner table after ordering a drink - non alcoholic, although he would have preferred other at this stage - and looks around absently while sipping it. It had not been too long since arriving here, but he had seemed to have lost track of everyone he knew. Lys...Litisha...even the Masterharper had somehow disappeared. He would not have admitted it to anyone but Marenor, but he was feeling very lonely.
I'm still here. Marenor piped up helpfully. A brief smile touched J'red's face.
"I know, Marenor, and I'm glad. I don't know what I'd do without you."
J'red returned to staring at his drink, lost in thought and reflection.

The Coinshifter enters silently. Having only received one Coin so far, and that of a Protoceratops, she still strongly resembles a human - but with large, luminous blue eyes, tough pebbled skin, and small, hard hooves replacing her fingernails. With a silently threatening look to anyone who glances her way, she takes a seat and orders a surprisingly non-alcoholic drink, sipping it quietly and looking straight through what shadows there are with her newly-keen eyesight. Now... what can I do to gain another Coin...
