Again, you get yells of fear and then questions of who you are."
"Yes, yes. Surprise intruder and all that. We were sent from the 'Bland Belfry', the 'Milk Toast Manor', the 'Prosaic Plague House'. You know the temple of Quan Yin a few hours down the road. Word was sent to them that your town was in trouble, and they sent us to investigate and assist on their behalf. Don't be alarmed, there is a rather large bugbear outside, she's not part of the trouble we were sent to investigate, she's, at least it presents as a she, she'd one of the investigators. There is also a gremlin, a sand lizard, a talking squirrel, and another fellow, he hasn't been that interesting so I have barely taken note of him. I am Damian Nise, Talented Trubadore of the Realm."
Damian says all of this in an uninterrupted stream, talking over any attempts to interject. When he is done, he will sit down on whatever surface is available and ask, "So, what can you tell me of what has been plaguing your quaint little village." as he absently starts to slowly swing the end of his spiked chain.
