<div align="center">Zentius Yerodin (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=96661.msg4199711#msg4199711)</div>Giving absolutely no further thought to the two would be muggers Zentius precedes directly to his destination. Arriving at a dark tower near the outskirts of the city he shakes his head and thinks, “<em>What is it with wizards and towers?</em>” After examining the tower walls closely an evil smile spreads across his face. The walls are made of stone blocks and are uneven enough for him to scale easily. Activating the chameleon power of his armor he instantly blends in nearly perfectly with the background becoming virtually invisible. With a quick thought he reduces the weight of his body to nearly nothing and begins to effortlessly climb the tower wall. He pauses at every window to peer inside and finally finds what he is seeking at a window at the very top of the tower.<br/><br/>Peering through the window Zentius can see the sleeping form of the wizard in his bed. Looking around the room he is pleased to see a large battle axe hanging above the fireplace. Knowing there are most likely magical protections in place he makes no attempt to enter the room. Returning his gaze to his sleeping target he uses his mind to cause the bedding to bind the wizard’s hand and to gag him. With the wizard now unable to use his hands or voice to call upon magic Zentius focuses on the axe again. The wizard’s eyes snap open and fill with terror at being rendered helpless by his own bedding. The sight of the huge axe floating across the room causes his eyes to open even wider showing the whites all around. He franticly struggles to get free but is unsuccessful as the axe comes down hard and fast cutting through flesh and bone and embedding itself deep into the mattress.<br/><br/>Releasing his hold on the axe and the bedding Zentius causes a clothe to wrap around the severed head. The head inside the clothe then floats across the room out the window and into his hand. With his prize in hand he pushes slightly away from the tower wall and slowly drifts down to the street below. Once on the ground he deactivates his power and the power of his armor and walks carelessly away from the scene with his grisly package dripping blood in his wake.<br/><br/>Arriving back at the Prancing Unicorn just after the sun breaks the horizon Zentius waits in the shadows for his employer to come out. The wait is only a few moments and when the man walks out Zentius gives the clothe a flip holding onto one edge. The head flies out drops to the ground and rolls to a stop at the man’s feet. The man jumps back startled and disgusted. Stepping out of the shadows Zentius lowers his hood. “There is the head you asked for. Now where is my payment?” The man stares down at the head for a moment without responding or moving. Taking another step closer Zentius gets a dangerous look on his dark face. “If you’re planning on cheating me the sight of that head will be the last thing you see. I have honored my side of the contract and it is too late to renegotiate the price. Now, give me what is mine.”<br/><br/>“Okay, it is yours just give me a moment to get it out. I just was not expecting you to work quite so quickly.” The man reaches down to a pouch on his belt and pulls out a roll of thick clothe that just barely fits through the fully stretched opening. The roll is about three feet long which means the pouch is obviously magical as it is not more than a few inches deep by outward appearance. He holds the roll out to Zentius who takes it without another word. Unrolling it Zentius lays the three foot by foot rug on the ground. Seating down on the rug with his legs cross he gives it a mental command to rise and it rises with him seating on it several feet into the air. With a smile on his face he causes the rug to start to move away. “Wait, what am I supposed to do with this head?”<br/><br/>Dropping the bloody clothe next to the head Zentius replies, “I don’t know or care. You said you wanted it. Now it’s your problem what to do with it.” The rug rises higher into the sky and starts moving in the direction of the redwood forest in California.
