<div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/3O8HDVVm.png)</div><br/>Natasha Drozdov (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=2329869)<br/>AC: 13 (+3 Dex)<br/>HP: 18/18<br/>Conditions: Charmed<br/><hr/><br/><br/>It was difficult for Natasha to investigate, but getting assistance helped quite a bit. She really didn't know many of the other...slaves outside of her small group of friends, but she's still able to gather some very useful information. She doesn't want to stir up any trouble without at least having a definite idea who it was. Or if it was even just one of the ladies. Of course the one serpent lady leaps out as a suspect among the three she narrowed down to, but it was unwise to let appearances and "obvious" solutions twist her judgment.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Her initial investigation having been complete, she ended up distracted by the fruits of her earlier friendliness. The catgirl had come back with the snakes, allowing Natasha to study their corpses in greater detail. Not being in the heat of combat means the process is less...intuitive than before, but even without the urgency of life or death situation she's still able to discern the mystical meanings behind the patterns on their scales. It felt...strange. Even now she found it hard to believe in magic despite everything she's gone through, and yet here she was, willingly learning the incantations herself.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Learning is Magic!</div><div class="spoiler_body">Taking Disguise Self and Sleep</div></div><br/><hr/><br/>Having spent what little free time she had in her investigation and study of the snakes, Natasha finds herself with one more thing she needed to do: check up on Senfra. Surely the healers would be done with her by now. She's almost turned away, but before she can start thinking on how she might trick her way inside one of them seems to recognize her...and more specifically recognize that she has permission to be here. Sighing with relief she entered the chamber to discover what she had suspected: that the healer in question was her friend turned priestess Ellen. Her timing couldn't have been better either, as she seems to have caught things right at the end of them, although she is able to witness her friend cast some sort of...healing magic, she determines. Somehow she knew of the workings of magic, even a type of magic different than the one she personally wielded.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Arcana Check</div><div class="spoiler_body">Arcana=20 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=152932)</div></div><br/>Natasha would let Ellen work, not wanting to interfere in what very well could be a delicate process. She keeps quiet until her friend finishes and hugs her tight, returning the embrace warmly "Thank you so much Ellen. I don't htink I could bear losing Senfra...she's part of the reason I've survived here as long as I did." she explains.<br/><br/>Feeling a bit awkward at that admission she let the pair of them speak before attention is brought back to her "Well, I appreciate the thought..." she replies to Ellen's admission "You're doing a lot for me already, please don't put yourself in a bad situation just to help me out. I'm pretty tough, right?" she says with a bit of a laugh.<br/><br/>Natasha hadn't realized how bruised and battered she had become until Ellen enacts her healing magic upon her. Almost immediately she felt the battering she's taken the last couple of days fade away...and is reminded just how few opportunities she's had as of late to properly rest. She can sleep some, but she's expected to be, well, working quite a lot of the time. "Oh, thank you! I..." Natasha wasn't even able to get the rest out as Ellen suddenly presses forward with a deep kiss, tongue mingling with hers while Natasha stiffens in shock, but quickly relaxes. Panting softly as the kiss is finally broken, she stares dazedly at Ellen as she explains why Natasha shouldn't feel guilty about her circumstances...and perhaps allow herself to enjoy things in the meantime. Unbeknownst to her, there was magic behind that suggestion, that slips past her mental defenses and makes her that much more agreeable...<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Wis Save</div><div class="spoiler_body">Wis Save=10 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=152931)</div></div><br/><br/><hr/><br/>Natasha isn't exactly sure what had changed....perhaps she had taken Ellen's words to heart. Now back on duty, she is relieved to have one of her nicer repeat customers....she might end up sore with him, but definitely not bruised. Her skills had grown in the short time she had been here, and now with his cock in her mouth she found herself...enjoying the act. She desired nothing more than to please this man, and having learned his particulars she found it easy to hit all the things he really enjoyed as her head bobbed up and down his length. She knew this was only the appetizer as it were, but no reason not to make it just as good as the main course, no?
