conversations:  Faldrum city, Major trade Center of the Plains: Mid-Afternoon
   
  In the city of Faldrum, a urban city that focused mainly on being a trading post for the many town around it, there was much unrest. Only a fortnight before this day all was well and calm, with children playing and adults working while wiping away the sweat off their brow. But now there was no child outside, with the only people on the streets were quickly moving to their destination.
  
  Travelers were few, with adventurers being even fewer. But the ones that were at the city at the time were obviously being avoided. The inns wouldn’t let them stay, nor would most shops allow them purchase of their wares. The only ones not showing the hate was the various guilds that make up the north section of town.
  
  The Grand Council, the group who held great authority over Faldrum, were more than a little nervous for their fair city. Misfortune was foreshadowing the community, with the surrounding crops dying and missing people reports stacking up progressively. Normally this world only be slightly worrisome for the three elders, but these events seemed much more…pre-conceived to them. So they, along with the various guildmasters that incorporated the Council itself, had begun a search for adventurers in the hopes that they could put these events to rest.
  
  Said adventurers have been called to the town hall/temple where the council held their meetings. They were to be expected to come within the hour’s half. The Heads were slightly testy about having to wait, but the various other members calmed them as they stared at the main hall entrance in anticipation, which stood a good sixty feet away with the door leading to they’re chamber open wide.

  Carlose was happy someone was doing something about this mess. He'd been trying to track down missing persons and find those responsible for the entire situation, but his tracking skills were... lacking. He was a soldier for Good, a fighter, and he had little skill in investigations, even with the right melds.
  
  He appeared to be human until you get a good look at his eyes. They glowed blue in lower light, and the whites themselves were permanently stained a light blue colour as well. He also wears a number of items that do not match any known magical items. His legs are the colour of the sky from the knees down. Blue crystalline shoulder pads float above his armour. Bright blue bracers attatch firmly to his fore arms. A transparent crystal helmet sits on his head. Metallic gloves hover around his hands, leaving room underneath for another pair of gloves, while arcs of electricity occasionally crackle between the fingers. He also wears a blue-green torc resembling two copper dragons facing each other in front of his throat. He seems quite used to all of these items and effects, and wears the floating items comfortably.
  
  " I hope that the fact you have called us together means that someone is finally taking action to try and quell whatever evil is causing this terror. I have been trying to act alone until now, but my skills are not suited to hunting down the one in charge. If you have any knowledge of who is, share it with me and I will ensure their soul is sent to its eternal damnation. " His eyes glow brighter as he looks over the people in the room.

conversations:  Jacoban 
  
  As Jacoban entered the hall he could tell that he was confusing at least some of the people there. He had many elvish features, though he was tall by elf standards and his silver hair was atypical of most elves. He also wore long white robes and a deep blue cloak, looking strange to those around him. His headband also drew attention, as its black color was very out of place amongst the silver hair. He sees that one other has arrived, maybe they could solve this places problems.
  
   "I am new to this place, though I wish to help. You have my magic at your disposal in ridding this place of the evil that has taken root. I hear that there have been many dissapearances, have you any lead on what is going on here?"

conversations:  Jallorn struck an imposing figure in his armor.  On his chest was a gilded image of the symbol of Pelor, but the rest of his armor was simple and unadorned.  His axe was strapped accross his back, with more gilded suns on either side of both blades.  The most astounding thing about the axe was that it almost seemed as if the sunlight lingered a bit longer around the axe, giving it a sort of golden glow.   "Fear does not become such great men,"  he says after removing his helmet,  "Pelor watches us always, even when the darkness has come and his light is unseen, it is only because he desires us to create our own light."

conversations:  Jack enters after all of the others wearing his fedora with the feather on his head. The rest of his body was covered in a long cloak that he seemed to wrapped around him. He walks slowly but seems to keep up as he stands next to the others. His old brown eyes look around his new allies and he chuckles.
  
   "This is the group that's I am to go with? " He turns to them  "Not to distrust you're skill but you all seem 20 years to young for this. Back in my day we had lots of evil running around and you were lucky to live from group to group! I remember a group of teens. TEENS! They went out and never came back!"  Even tho he still hears what other says he mumbles randomly about the past.
  
  He also eyes the strange man with glowing eyes pulls out a book and looks for a page number.

  Jacoban studies the rest of the group, studying any noticible strengths or weaknesses.
   I say we stop this nonsense and here what the elders have to say."

conversations:  "Boy don't you talk to me that way. Not to say you haven't done anything big but as I recall master's of the arcane arts work most of the time reading and studying. When I was younger I knew a wizard that pissed himself during our first encounter. I bet your still wet behind the ears. And even when I was young and you were still studying under a master I was out there hunting things down!"   Jack then sets down cross legged while pulling out a bottle and starts to drink.  "What do you lot want with us anyway! I did not get dragged out of retirement so I could set here and get talked down to."

conversations:  Slowly but surely the adventurers began to arrive at the hall. The council was pleased with themselves at the arrivals. They all seemed quite competent. With a polite smile etched onto his face, one of the grand council, an older gentleman with a simple robe and a long grey beard, rose from his chair before bowing to each arrival.
  
  "Calm down you two" the older man requested before nodding. "My name is William, now then..Gentlemen, I... We  have called you here today because of the problems we have been having lately. Its rather curious: crops being destroyed, people vanishing. We've even had reports of large bugs attacking farmers" he spoke with a grave look on his features. "We have no idea why this is happening, that is why we have called you here. We need your help" the man said almost pleadingly.

  I wasn't sure if the DM was waiting for you to introduce yourself or not. I figured either you could put your intro in your next post, or the DM could just move us along.
