The Winter's Queen [Magus AU]

[Tethras Clan]

~Ask if he means a mutagen,~ Varric prompts Caver. ~If so, ask how long it lasts.~

[Carver Amell]

"A mutagen?" he asks, frowning. "How long does it last?" I feel like one of those birds pirates have, that just repeat whatever you say to it.

[GamesMaster]

"Half an hour. More than long enough." comes the prompt reply. 

[Tethras Clan]

~Better than being nothing but a voice in one man's ear. Anyway, a half hour is pretty short. Be surprised if he's half as seasoned as you or T. Might not be bad to have him pair up with Helene though, provide her with a guard.~ Varric goes silent then, something niggling at him, a glimmer of an idea.

[Carver Amell]

"Then stay here. Guard the church." Grow up a little. What is he, fourteen?

[Tethras Clan]

~Is he? Sorry, I have trouble judging short-lived race ages. Mostly, I look for facial hair for males and... well,~ Varric admits absently.

[Carver Amell]

Ugh, don't remind me. I tried growing a beard for a month once. It... did not end well.

[GamesMaster]

The catfolk, meanwhile, bristles. "I assure you, I can be of assistance." 

[Tethras Clan]

"Perhaps, perhaps not. But the good you are doing here is not without value," Zevran says gently. "The good Bright needs your help with keeping these people safe."

[NPCs]

"Indeed. With Dog and T going, I am rather low on trustworthy and combat-capable hands," Lelldorin says softly.

[GamesMaster]

Niko scowls. "I know what you're doing, human." he hisses, ears going back. "But I won't argue. Just try not to die." 

[Tethras Clan]

Out of nowhere, Carver hears 'yessssss.'

[Carver Amell]

Carver blinks. "What?" At Niko's look of confusion, he shakes his head. "Not you. Sorry." 

[Tethras Clan]

"Carver hears the voice of wisdom in his head," Zevran faux-whispers to Niko.

~The Adrift. The orc clan on west Coalside. If anyone is secure enough to spare troops and maybe a heavy, it's them, Best bet, unless we want to stroll through the Bazaar and hope.~

[Carver Amell]

"Ah. Seems there's a group called The Adrift out in West Coalside that have the numbers we need to mount an offensive." He shoots Zevran a dirty look, but doesn't complain too much.
