"Ye ain't the first to think she's a real smart lass," the bartender had to say before the airheaded woman showed up, "and let's jus say the watch has to catch a thief once in a while or they'll look like a whole buncha idiots. Nobody has the time to keep track of every visitor here fer a jaunt. But try to stay and stay a freelancer, and ye'll draw all sorts of the wrong attention to yerself."<br/><br/>The blue liquid tasted like liquid fire and burnt Shay's throat as she swallowed it. Her stomach churned in protest and she felt slightly light-headed. The blonde, though, seemed unaffected by it. "Oof, this is strong stuff! So nice to meet you Titania. Call me Jasmine!" She giggled as she accepted the self-proclaimed re-distributor's handshake, who could feel the tough calluses on Jasmine's fingers and palm. Shay sensed that the big-breasted blonde bimbo act was just that, an act. The woman's intense blue eyes, picking up every detail of her surroundings, gave the bluff away.<br/><br/>Jasmine continued, still keeping up the dumb blonde act. "Did you know someone emptied out the safe of the Paladin's Rest last night? And right after they changed the combination too... it turned out that one of the maids did it, she was the only one with both the key and the combination - other than the matron, of course. So the city watch arrested the poor girl, and unless she confesses soon they'll have to torture the whereabouts of the gold out of her. So barbarous! But apparently legal, according to the law of Seahurst. As she was being dragged off, she claimed she didn't do it and I think she's telling the truth... so I've been in Sailor's Ghetto all day trying to get a lead to prove her innocence, but so far nothing's come up."<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Shay's sense motive: 26 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=60162)<br/><br/>DC 15 fort save from drinking the blue stuff or take 1 point CHA damage.
