OOG: This thread is for myself, pstmodrn, KoolKoal and DragonBuster, as well as other WPLs. Anyone whose sense leaves them to the point that they will challenge this will be given singing lessons from her.
Laucian looks around the hall, then smiled to the Dryad. "Good to see you again. Have you found anyone to help in my hunt?"
OOC: Not entirely sure how we're going to introduce ourselves, following that, but I guess I'll raise a hand on this one
Xin's hand rose - quite literally so - at the question. "I heard a rumor about a job to that nature; that's why I'm here, myself." He motioned with his head to the other two who were standing somewhat next to him. "As for them, I'm sure they have their own reasons for being here."
Not quite implying that they were there for the hunt, as well, he was more aiming to see if the job only required one person. He'd rather get as much a cut on the profits as possible; the last job didn't pay him nearly what he had expected, and he was still left out to dry in terms of his pockets.
But with the last tournament only proving to him just how weak he was in comparison to the mages around here...he'd need all the help he could get. Doing so, however, would be a cut in the profits, which would keep him from getting as strong as possible, which means probably more working with others.
Venge grunts and glares down at those nearby, crossing his muscular arms across his chest as he says, "My reasons mean little, but I am here to work as long as the reward is reasonable."

Loomis says, "I am called Loomis. I am skilled in Blue Magic, but have a strong attraction to the magic of nature. I hope this job will shed some light on my studies."
Laucian nodded. "Well, I can't promise anything, but I require your aid. I am hunting a creature from my homeland...it is a beast of great pride and repose. It is my effort to reclaim it, and bring it back to where it belongs."
"That...is doable, I suppose." Xin frowned slightly, rubbing his chin as he responded - he had expected to kill it. Bringing it back alive - or anything, for that matter - isn't an easy task for a mage skilled in destruction.
This would be a most peculiar hunt for him to participate in.
The elf nodded to Venge. "Alive, yes. I have worked out a spell to return him to where he came from, so we need only to subdue it, and I can do the rest."
"And I assume catching this alive means some sort of...reward, of sorts?" Xin tilted his head slightly, almost as if questioning the man like a small child would ask his parent something. The irony of his size only further added to the effect.
Venge shakes his head, "My only possession that can lift me and move with any real speed is a bit," he pauses, musing over the perfect word, "unstable."
Shrugging his shoulders, Xin fell in easily behind Laucian, tugging his cloak off as he did so and tucking it in the backpack slung easily over his shoulder. His clothes were rugged, slightly worn; mostly red, with small streaks of black, his tunic and pants fit loosely on his small form.
"Hopefully not too far," Xin muttered under his breath, rubbing the back of his neck as they walked. He didn't relish the thought of spending days hiking to a forest that he knew nothing about. But, the payment for the hunt - and the desperation in which he needed it - kept him silent and free of vocalized complaints.
Though probably as travel worn as the rest, Loomis tries to make th emost of it. He seems like he has seen little of life outside the city, taking every opportunity to look at trees and flowers in closer detail. He also tries his hand at drawing a crude map on a scrp of scroll as they go.
Venge eyes the giant bugs dubiously, "That shell better be harder than it looks, I don't want to sit in a pile of insect guts," he says. The Rhox moves to one of the insects and, taking care not to place his hefty feet on anything especially fragile, clamors onto its back.

An ironic struggle at its finest.

(OOC: I'm going to try bolding all of Venge's speech, I think it may help convey his deep tone of voice.
EDIT: lol, two people post while I'm writing up my post, I'll need to edit what Venge said slightly for it to make better sense. Done)

As you reach the city limits, Laucian summoned four large insects. They stood ready to carry you to your desrtination. "Hop on."
