Goldeath rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Goldeath wonderingly says, "I would say at least a generation."

You ask, "And what hunting style do you adopt as a warrior?"

Goldeath jokingly says, "Well I deck myself out with all sorts of shiny gold to attrack my enemies, like moths to the flame, I don hide or mice words, I just hack and slash with the vindicator."

You ask, "Have you ever thought of adopting a different style and if so what would that be?"

Goldeath darkly says, "To be honest, there is one more method I would like to switch to, but I am limited..."

Goldeath knowingly says, "Awhile back I met a person by the name of Rathian."

You listen carefully to Goldeath.
You lean back in your chair, balancing yourself on two legs for a few moments, then set the chair back down on all four legs.

Goldeath mysteriously says, "He tried to sell me a very special blade, it was a smoky black glaes katana, some blade enchanted to the fullest a wizard can, and it had 3 types of flares on it."

Goldeath darkly says, "If I found that blade, I would go back to edged."

You ask, "Were you not tempted?"

Goldeath darkly says, "I was, but I couldn't muster the silver."

Goldeath darkly says, "I could now, but alas, I cannot get ahold of him."

Goldeath darkly says, "Been searching the lands for him for quite a bit."

Goldeath darkly says, "Worried maybe he found a buyer."

Goldeath darkly says, "But I would don a shield and use some shield bashing."

Goldeath removes a shadowy black tower shield from in his spidersilk backpack.

Goldeath darkly says, "I got this."

s>" well perhaps he will turn up with it.. and you'll be in a position to purchase it Goldeath shows you a shadowy black tower shield, which he is holding in his left hand. The surface of this shield is textured and coarse, and tinted in a very peculiar black color. The structure is such that it is difficult to stare at for any period of time, the odd construction making it seem as if it is shifting and bending. A large spike is affixed in the center. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

Goldeath darkly says, "Its spiked so that'll work nicely."

Goldeath grins evilly.

Goldeath darkly says, "Only a few weeks."

Goldeath grunts.

You say, "And on the subject of hunting..."

You ask, "What percentage of your time do you spend hunting? How do you spend your other time?"

. Goldeath darkly says, "Well... I used to spend a quarter to half at the guild, but now that its done, I'd say about 50 percent of the time."

Goldeath darkly says, "Another 40 for adventure guild."

Goldeath darkly says, "10 for other stuff, like this."

Goldeath darkly says, "Events."

Goldeath darkly says, "I usually hold a fishing tournament."
