Hmm... If you don't annoy me, sure! *Sees a small shop...* A minute! First I must get some bread! *Goes to shop, and buys 2 breads and an empty bag (for keeping water) for 5 sp...* You'll have to take your own stuff with you! Anyhow, I'm Orodreth! And your name is? SP= Silver Pieces. GP= Gold Pieces. Handy isn't it?
I got 1GP and 5 SP now...You're fined for destroying a floorboard! Repairs come to 1GP and 5 SP You'd wish!

*relaxes high in his comfortable bed in his mansion* Translation: Hangs over a branch in a large oak.
It's his favorite spot to relax and oversee the forest and the trade route below him. At the base of the tree his wolf Valior enjoys gnawing on a bone.

"Thanks, I'm Kroro, nice meeting you, this is my golem, golem." Kroro says and buys some bread and a satchel. He didn't have much gold, but he can make silver coins with magic ;D. ...provided he has the equivalent amount of silver
What you CAN do is to create an illusion of silver or gold pieces. Closer inspection of these will reveal the truth though, and these guys don't look too kindly on people watering the currency

*Tuskar emerges from a local shop, after stocking up on supplies, and sees the three exit the tavern one after the other. He thinks nothing of them, and heads off to the town's noticeboard, having heard the town crier, but not listened.*
Cows, eh? <thinks>I could sell four as they are, but have the last one chopped up and made into food. Then, I could make a bundle on the non-edibles from it. Leather sells high these days. But I can't do it alone...I'll need some help. Hmm...
*Tuskar wanders into the town square and sits on a bench.* <Thinks>Where can I find mercinaries around here? Hmm...there was those three that came out of the tavern...wait, four! One of them had a golem following him...excellent...
*He gets up and walks casually towards the alleyway he saw them go in to.*

*Orodreth walks out of the village with Kroro behind him...* So... You're new here?

"Well, I'm new to the adventuring business (!!!) but I've lived on the farms South of here all my life. I know this town and the people know me."
"You?"

Having not stopped for shopping, and performing a rapid march, Molloc find himself standing on a bridge over the river. He pauses and looks down at the flowing water*
A shame by sword was not bigger, I'd hack this bridge down.
*He walks away from the side and finishes crossing.* *No more delays, the forest is great distance ahead, and I am no doubt being followed by emissaries of slaughter.*if the bridge is further away than that, then just take it he's on a path somewhere.

*Tuskar reaches the allyway and finds it empty. *
Ehh...
*He looks around and sees them exit the shop, the very one he bought his own supplies from. * D'oh! *He runs after them, seeing that they are headed for the south road, towards the golbins.*

Surprised you haven't seen me then! I lived with some humans in a farm near here! *After they've walked a while, they come to a bridge, and go over it...* *On the other side, Orodreth stands still...* There something here... Listen! The birds are silent! Something Evil has passed here, but what? Aww c'mon Solar, you can't HEAR that Never mind though, carry on..*Thinks for a few moments...* *We should refrain for entering the forest... It may not be safe... Not yet...* *They walk on along the village, and Orodreth gets the feeling they are being followed...* By you, Bludge!

"Ok, if you say so, I dont' really feel a thing. It's just a bridge and a common forest. There are goblins, so they might be patrolling the forest." As Kroro is saying this, he looks around him to wander where Orodreth got his conceptions from.
As he is looking back at the bridge, he sees a man storming towards them. "Hey, look there, who might he be?" Kroro asks Orodreth, who stops in his tracks to be prepared for any other encounters.
"Hey, you, why are you running like that? Someone chasing you or something?" Kroro asks.

I reckon there's about an hour's march from the bridge to the goblin camp...

*Tuskar leans on his knees for a few moments to catch his breath, but then he stands up straight and adresses the two.*
Hey there! My name is Tuskar and I can't help but notice that you're off to sort out those goblins. Pesky little things, not too tough on their own but quite nasty in numbers, which is why you need numbers to defeat them!
There are three of you, including your golem, of course. *Looks uneasily up at the golem, who stands silently, eerily unmoving.* I'd be happy to help, for a share of the bounty of course...split between the three of us thats a cow each, and the last two could be...put down, and made into other products which could then be shared out more easily. What we do with our own cows is entirely to our own discretion, of course.
What's your names, by the way?

"Oh hi, yeah we're out for the goblins. I would love to have a cow, but since we're going off adventuring I'll probably send it to my folks. He's Orodreth by the way. He's a druid, I'm a mage.
Don't fear my golem, he's a kind and gentle soul."

Don't put them down! They are gentle creatures, which don't deserve death! They're much more valuable if they give milk! But maybe... We'll see... *Walks on...* But I won't allow you to put them down, savage! *Slightly annoyed with the new companion, he walks on...* Now, can we hurry this up a bit? I don't want to walk slowly! *Walks a little bit faster...* I'm a druid, and it's suspiciously quiet... So what would you think then!Just because it's quiet doesn't mean Evil walked by! ;D And I'm not evil! I never said he was evil! He's amoral! Not immoral!

Thamior relaxes after a decent meal and after a short nap gets down from his tree. HIs wolf Valior seems restless. He has smelled a stranger in the wind. Thamior is on guard and sees a figure approach over the path in the distance. He hides in the bushes, waiting for the stranger to get closer.
He is on foot and does not carry a large backpack for goods so he is not a trader. As he gets closer THamior sees that the man wears clothes and is well armed for a traveller. He has a dark look and a somewhat bittered face. Thamior concludes that the man may be a bandit or poacher.
Thamior steps out from the bushes with his wolf following him. He grabs his bow from his back and an arrow. He tries to look intimidating. A confident attitude is an advantage in any confrontation.
"You travel through this place very armed stranger. What's your business here? Why do you travel this path? Speak the truth, i shall not be fooled by lies"
