Xario just keeps to himself a few feet away. He seems to be reading a book that he keeps in his pack. He is still new to the group and doesn't want to intrude on the discussion where he isn't needed. He hopes to prove himself in the coming days as he gets used to his new body.

2 Weeks after setting out on my own, more members of Blackwater find me. One even addresses me as "Shield Captain Nikbo" I know not what in reference he makes but it is decided that we will head south to the Village of Ravenviwe looking for new resources for Blackwater just a little distance from here.
:::The Next Day::: I tell Mad Dok to stay with me as while I send Xerio a little south to scout a embankment a little distance away. Our plan today is to look for andy usable resources that could be exploited by the Crew. Our search is cut short however as about 3 hours in we run afoul a rather nasty looking and fully grown Red Dragon.
"Mad Dok, Be very slow and Very Quiet when you turn around. We need to leave this place Immediately and RUN" As I Point to the Dragon.
(OCC: Nikbo has yet to meet Kealmourn and has no knowledge of his promotion to a Shield Captain. If you want to some how inform him via say a official letter then we can RP that other wise he is just going to keep looking at ya funny especially since he has no shield)

Xario notes down the dragon's location and meets up with the others after a few hours of looking for them. He was glad to see they kept to the course and headed southwest instead of doubling back. He was a bit shaken when he got to them due to the dragon's size and how close it was yet. After the group gets a more comfortable distance away Xario asks "How did that dragon go unreported?" he seems to be musing to himself more than to the others at this point. He keeps pace with the group but seems to be focused more upon making notes rather than keeping course.

Fleeing from the Dragon before its attention is turned to th pair Mad Dok and Nikbo double time in in the pre-established direction hopeing for Xario's safe return. a few hours later he manages to catch up and the starts straining to keep pace with the slow gate of Nikbo who seems to be slowing the party as a whole.
"How did that dragon go unreported?" Xario mutters more to himself while jotting a few notes. and probly as a startel to him Nikbo actualy responds.
"Given that Red Dragons are indigenous to mountain ranges and rarely found outside of there teratorys I would have t gander that its passing throe to Mate with its partner or even more dire that a stronger Dragon has run it out of its Lair and its not looking for another."

a look comes over the dok's face as he realized something "Xario may i get a copy of that entry later i think i may have an idea" the dok returns to his scheming and planning for the days ahead and the people to meet
*a few hours later at camp* "i suppose i should begin distributing the potions i made here 2 of the healing(cure light wounds 1d8+1) ones each and one of "get outta there"(expeditious retreat). after all i need to keep the other members of the Blackwater alive hm this is an odd feeling keeping people alive...oh well anyway here are the potions be and if you experience explosive diarrhea thats normal."

The night settled in and we all took a seat by a nice fire. Regaining our nearves from the near catastophy of the Red Dragon. Xario is a little farther way than Mad Dok who seems to be a bit more confadent as he dig thrue his bad and starts handing out small viles.
"Whats this?" as Nikbo gives a quizical look.

the dok scoffs at the giant ignorance "the blue one will cause your body to heal at an incredibly accelerated rate it will itch like a bitch and hurt like fire but you will be back in the fight in seconds you may experience light headedniss and blood in your urine but these are quit normal. the red one will make you move much faster it accelerates the the muscles reaction times in your legs will let you run in or out in seconds even you will move as fast as a horse but as ive said you may experience loose bowels later though i think Ive fixed that in the batch anyway hopefully these will keep you alive longer" the dok carefully explains to the giant

As the now confirmed to be crazed man explains what it is and what exactly they do Nikbos face distorts into several expressions starting with disgust and ending with absolute horror as he descried the side affects. Nikbo looks down as the tiny vile, made even smaller in his hand clink against one another.
"Assuming I am desperate enough to ingest this...poison, I believe more than one vile will be needed for some one of my stature."

"no need to worry the effect relies on the doses size not the size of the person drinking it so if my theory is correct it would work on even someone of a dragons size and dont worry lad the effects of the potion far outlay the side effects they haveoh and dot forget to report any additional effects ive never actual used them on a person of your species and i really do need to know if anything happens" dok explains to the great hulk before going to bed

Xario tears a sheet from his book folding it and setting it near Dok's pack. He then goes over to Nikbo and says "I'm sorry for not being too sociable. I'm used to my books and some rare company every now and then." His apology seems genuine but he still has his eyes out from the campsite. He sits near Nikbo opposite of Dok and starts to unwrap his head until some burnt flesh around his mouth is visible. He then reaches to his pack and takes a drink from his flask. He then says "If that dragon is roaming for a new home I fear that he will come upon the Cove before long." He takes another sip from his flask and wraps up his face once more.

As Xario urapps his face he speaks of the dragon and drinks from a flask of unknown liquid. the concern for the draon can be seen thue the bandages covering his burnt skin. Nikbo attempts to reasure his companion as he places the new potions in the pocket of his garb with a wary look to Mad Dok
"That looks like a fine drink there, May I inquire as to what it is?" As he makes a poor attempt to not linger too long on the scars.

"It is a type of herb mixture. It soothes my throat, and my inner mouth. It's nothing special no special properties besides the numbness." He throws it into his pack and places his book and quill inside along with it. "Taste is enough to drive you mad." Then he lies back using his pack as a pillow and says "Let me know when my watch comes around." as he drifts off to sleep.

Nikbo turns to Mad Dok giveing him the motions that he too should probably get some sleep as he stands to walk to the edge of camp, the days walk was not kind to his bladder and he aims to fix that now. Finding a large tree he listens to the sounds of nature around him, one sound a loud bellow from some animal off in the distance seemed particularly loanly. He put to his mind that he would have to be extra vigalent tonight but other wise ignored it as he spun his eyes back in forth taking in the surroundings.
