Alexander is a muscular half-elf, on the tall side. He has orange hair and a beard and moustache. He is clad in full plate armour, and his sword and shield lay by his side. He recently deserted from his position in Ralokrana City, and he came here in hopes of overthrowing the duke.

Alexander squints. "If we knock at the doors of the castle with our weapons, that would be suicide. They outnumber us four to one in the best case scenario. No, in my opinion we should find a small outpost and burn it to the ground. Leave no survivours. Make ourselves look bigger than we are."

In post 4, SleepyKrew wrote:"I'm afraid we don't have enough supporters for a war effort. I like Alexander's idea. Perhaps we could do it at a time a duke or royal is visiting said outpost? Though finding out their travel itineraries would be tricky."

would I know anything about this, specifically pertaining to those hailing from the desert?

Alexander turns to Vornimar.

"The duke almost never gets his hands dirty with some outpost, but lieutenants sometimes visit them. I'm afraid that's the best we'd get."

He then speaks to Wolfgang.

"Dwarf, that's about as subtle as going up to their castles and knocking on their door, asking them to please step down so we can take over. It's not going to cut it."

"That does sound appealing. We could take a lieutenant. Or we could just make someone up ourselves! It's not like the common rabble know what's going on beyond the borders of their village. But I don't know any spells that could be useful to fake an execution, and I wouldn't know how to do it my mundane means either. Gnome, you're a wizard, right? Got anything useful in that spellbook of yours?"

Alexander says loud enough for the others to hear it, but not the guard: "I think I can handle this."

He starts walking towards the door

Alexander opens the door. What does he see?

"So what are you here for anyway? Surely guards must have better things to do than knocking on random doors."

"This is the only lead we got, right? I think it would be unwise not to take it. Besides, the guards might wisen up soon and then we're in all kinds of trouble."

"So that leaves... Four of us? Not much of a rebellion, but I think it should be possible. I can definitely swing a sword from the training I got."
