The familiar stated that it couldnt' identify what it was and it's moving away at speed. Fair enough... it's not reason to stop moving forward and it's in the same direction. Wren is a sailor with strong rogue background, so some paranoia is part of life. If she's being too cautious because she isn't use to strolling along the sewer, I don't see that as being out of character any more than anyone else being a little jumpy after getting some confirmation that something is going on there. Why be quiet if you're expected to be making noise?<br/><br/>At any rate, what I saw as the parties job is to find the source of the disappearances, and in that, the source of the arsons. The people are a bigger issue because it will, eventually, blow up and there aren't enough troops in town to deal with it... If the city hasn't burned down yet, a single building on fire a night isn't going to burn it down now.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>You know, I went back and re-read the dialogue with the Watch, and I can see it coming across either way. I suppose this is entertaining because it depends on how cynically your character is taking what the Watch has to say about its involvement.<br/><br/>As re: the critter moving away, yep. That seems totally in character. Note that when I comment on characters in general thinking X or Y I'm not necessarily referring to your character in specific...Reading the IC should make things fairly apparent.<br/><br/>FWIW: Ghaazala thinks Wren has a reasonably level head on her shoulders. Her "you think." was originally not meant to be a skeptical "Oh, you think so, do you?" but a "...as opposed to some of what I'm hearing here, you're actually thinking about this."<br/><br/>And to a certain extent, she enjoys the needling. But she's intent on sticking her head in traps right now. ;D
