When the crowd surrounds the others, Irice sort of just stays back, not really all that into any sort of praise for work she'd hardly done much in, except for healing herself up after nearly dying to the Aura of Decay.  She's glad that the child's safe and watches as Kay chastises him to be careful, and though she thinks of protesting when the mayor gives her a share of the money, practicality wins out and she empties the 25 gold into her own pouch.  "Sorry I wasn't much use in this fight."  Irice apologizes to the others, though her short stature makes moving in and out of range to engage something like the plant creature more difficult, as she's more used to fighting individuals at a far closer range with her shield to protect her.  She also peruses what the Blacksmith has to offer before following the others, though a bit more critical about his work since she's an armorer.  She knows the basics of smithing, though to make weapons is something she's much less skillful with than armor.<br/><br/>As she's ruminating on how useless she is in combat, she listens to the others discuss their dining arrangements, watching the kitties seem to want to find a fancy area to eat.  For herself, she's more than content in joining Nilia in buying simple food, meat on a stick, as she's pretty tight with her gold even though she can afford eating the fancy place ten times over with her more dwarven practicalities.  "I think I'll join you if you don't mind Nil, on account of being starving myself.  Could use some good drinks too."  Looking at Brelia and Adriaan she tells them to "Let her know what the next job might be."  So she can be sure to be prepared for whatever they're doing next, whether tracking down the plant creature or something less dangerous (to her) instead.<br/><br/>(( OOC!  Alright, so my last post, I had in a roundabout manner asked who was at lowest health to heal them for 5 HP, but I got ZERO reply.  Since Razgriz is kind and allowing 4 hp healed to be the minimal healed, I'm a bit better off than before.  I had been at 5/11 before the 4 healing was applied, now I'm at 20/22 (due to level up and lucky level roll.)  Does anybody WANT or NEED the other 5 HP of healing since I used both of my spells earlier?!?! (End of OOC Rant, now for Irice shopping.)  I'd like for Irice to purchase from the Blacksmith 6 Javelin with Amentum attached to them (or something she'll attach to them during downtime.)  4 Pilum, and 1 Chakram. ))
