Spite's Green Leather-bound Journal

Well, I found a blank book in the library today. Might as well do something with it....

Marley had me steal some jewels from the mage guild today. Wasn't terribley hard to acquire, they look expensive, and should be able to keep precious Becca fed. She's been very thin lately. I'm worried about her.

Brought Marley the jewels today, he looked at em and said that the jewels were enchanted with powerful spells. He said that the watch will be lookin for em for sure and that he didn't want to purchase such hot property. I needed the money but not the heat. I decided to talk to Valressa for advice. She insisted on doing one of her stupid tarot readings again. I told her while she shuffled the cards that I was going to another town and taking Becca with me, maybe the jewels wouldn't be so dangerous to have in another town. She just frowned and continued drawing cards. Kept on drawing the death card to freak me out.

The town guard have started looking for the jewels real hard. I descided to pack up and take Becca with me. The Town guard has started patrolling the roads looking for these jewels. I'm starting to think Marley set me up. We stayed off the beaten path, eventually meeting paladin's of Hoar. They seemed like nice enough fellows. Said they new a shortcut to the city through an abandoned dwarven mine not too far off. Also said they'd take me and Becca with em, to make sure we didn't get hurt. Goin to sleep now. One of the Hoarans is lookin at my pack funny. I told him I'd keep watch if he wanted to sleep. He grunted his decline but stopped staring at my pack.

We made our way to through the mines. Wev'e gotten pretty deep. Becca's getting so cold. I gave her my cloak but it isn't helping much. The hoarans started acting funny, whispering to eachother and giving me dark looks. Finally they stopped, grabbed my pack, took the jewels, and called me thieving trash. They started beating me to the ground. Becca began to cry for me and they slapped her in the face, calling her, "a daughter of vile filth." I punched one hoaran off of me, picked up Becca, and began to run. I think we lost em now. But I don;t have any idea how to get out of this mine.

Oh dearest daughter I can only see the night the drow came after you and me. They took us both, dragged us deep, into the pits where darkness creeps. There they took you and made me watch as you were brought to their altar of Lolth. There they cut you with unholy blades, Until your skin just whithered away. They cut me too. With cold knifes, and left me for dead at a cell's floor. I removed a knife, hidden in my boot, and it told me to avenge you. So I obeyed. I picklocked the cell door. Then silenty cut till every priestess lay dead on the floor. I snuck otside, and through many a cave. Until I came upon sanctuary. Their I cried, because you had died. Knife whispering to me all the while: "Slice, Cut, Slice, all religion away, until they're all gone, so Becca can come out and play."

Killed a man in sanctuary today. Nelas helped me. I nailed a Tarot card of death into the dead man's chest because the knife told me to. Nelas called me "card" after that. That's my name now.

Talked to knife today. She said I'm no good at poetry...

Went out killing goblins with a group of people. Man by the name of Kyle Fox showed up and helped us. He started talking about how some fellow tried to "force himself" upon his fiance. Knife told me that wasn't right. I agreed with her. After we finished killing the goblins we headed back to sanctuary. I told Fox that I wanted to talk to him, but the woman with him, (who wasn't his fiance, his fiance is some woman by the name of Clara Fireheart or something.) got to him first. she very basically told me to bugger off. Well I'm a curious man, and so I walked away, but I doubled back and hid behind some rocks. I didn't catch their words, but he touched her face gently and I could see the love and intimacy in their eyes. I started to back away, realizing they were probably about to kiss. the pebbles underneath me crunched, and the woman heard me. I ran away. I'm not sure if they knew it was me or not. I waited by the sanctuary gate for fox. when he came back I told him I would kill the man who tried to rape his fiance for just a little bit of gold. He said that I shouldn't bother. I told him just to give me a name and I would take it from there. Aurin Guerin was the swine's name, that's what Fox told me. After that I told him not to cheat on his fiance. He insisted that I didn't. But I'm not a moron, the knife is always right. and knife says that he is. I'll keep his secret for now, even though Knife says I should tell her.

My concionse got the best of me. I sent her a letter saying, "Beware of Fox, a heart is not meant to be broken." I know what it's like, a broken heart. I wouldn't wish that upon anyone.

I saw Clara in town, talking to her merchant uncle. that's how I knew it was her. She went into lower, and into the crone. I followed her in, and then had a seat. She started talking to Cyrus about the letter she recieved. I descided that since it bothered her so much I might as well come into the light. I did have my helm on after all. I asked her if she had gotten the letter. She was surprised. She asked if I was "A Good Card" I replied with a yes and told her all that transpired.

After telling her my suspicion of what Fox had done, and how he hadn't exactly objected to me killing aurin guerin, (I don't blame him for that, though clara did.) She almost believed me at first, then Fox came in, and denied everything. It was obvious she wouldn't listen to me, so I drank my invisibility potion and made my leave, leaving fox and clara in much disarray. once outside knife told me that a secret identity would be a good idea, and whispered the name, "Jhonny de Blave" A perfect name. I went back inside with entirely different clothing and listened to them speaking of me. They thought it was over. Clara threw the letter away into the fire while Fox fed her his half-truths. There is something about clara, she reminds of someone, but everytime I get close to the revalation knife begins screaming schemes. I left the crone and dropped the card of the fool like knife told me to.

The other day I met some fool named Snyder or something. He was weak and whiney. Always mumbling about his god. I got in a fight with him and would have beat him until his friend snuck up behind me and hit me in the head. I got away though. Later I heard Snyder died with his buddies. Some good their gods did them.

I heard that clara has the watch looking for me. some moron got attacked because she accused him of being me. Though a little foolish clara does remind me of someone, but as always, knife is screaming at me when I get close.

I found some kind of hideout in the sewers, made by drow by the looks of it. It's a good sanctuary, and I can get to the canals from it pretty easy.

I sent a letter to Clara saying that once she found out about fox that I'd kill him for her. Don't know how she reacted, probably not well.

I found out that Clara was having some girl named "Kate" looking for me. I sent her a letter suggesting that i'd kill her if she found anything on me.

Iv'e began to walk around upper as "jhonny de blave." I feel myself regaining my civilness. Knife doesn't talk much anymore.

I went to the party hosted by that councillor fellow. It was big and boring, and I ultimately decided that since Clara was there I would make an appearance in my assassin armor to show her I was still around and not afraid. (as jhonny de Blave I heard her mention how i was no nonexistant since the watch was involved) I think she may of seen me, because some spellguard scum demanded I remove my mask even though he was wearing one himself. I retreated from the party, I have invisibility potions. not firepower.

Was wandering around the sewers and met a fellow named Malice, he's a shadowy sort like me, and I'm hatching a plan where he and I can both play the part of the assassin, "Card." that will confuse people and provide us with a name.

I heard Nelas has a price on his head, along with some fellow named "Rabbit." I wish I could remember what a rabbit was.

Malice and I were wandering around the sewers and met with the notorious crew led by "Thorn". Tried to join, but they got in a fight with the captain of the dragons tail mercenaries. Malice went with her, I don't know why. I decided to work with both of them though. The Dragon's Tail Mercenary Company has a good reputation, raising my status in upper, but I believe in what Thorn is doing. Iv'e made more progress with the dragon's tail.

I met with Clara as Jhonny de Blave. She's a nice girl and wev'e become friends. I'm hoping that she'll hire me as a bodyguard so I can protect her, because now that knife is silent I realize who she reminds me of; Becca. my dead daughter. maybe she is becca! she isn't dead after all.

Clara, (becca now) and her fool brother Edgar came into lower. Couldn't have been more foolish. Thugs poured out of the crone and surrounded them. I put on my gear and made my way towards the group with about 20 vials of alchemist fire. I had them move away from clara and her brother. and they made their way out. She was surprised to see me protect her. I can understand, she thinks I'm a killer. she doesn't recognize me as her father. It's these damned scars that the drow put on me. No-one from my past would recognize me. I wouldn't recognize me.

I'm happier now than I have ever been. Iv'e been helping clara find supplies with her bickering brother.

Went with the councilor to hunt chosen, the chosen killed a baby in a ritual. The dagger is screaming again.

I joined the crew of thorn. I joined the group of dragon tails. Helped Piye hide in the drow hole, from an angry mob.

I looked for becca to bring her some spider ichor, for her dyes. I asked around about her wereabouts, and an elf told me she had been kidnapped by captain thorn's crew. Something inside me snapped. I knew what I had to do. I took Piye, a member of the crew, and demanded he tell me where she was. He didn't know. He helped me though, he and malice helped me look for her. Finally piye gave up and left, and then malice and I found allivarn. Allivarn is a fool. He doesn't even care. He knows she's at fort mur, refuses to tell me until I make him. He doesn't care that theyr'e gone. He probably planned it. I'll kill him if she dies. I don't know the way to fort mur. But when I find it, I'll give them the key to the dragon tails mercenary company HQ. If they don't accept, then i'll blow them up along with myself. I asked a man in the streets if he knew the way, he asked why and I told him the truth. He was more than happy to oblige. I was too overjoyed to realize I had made a mistake. I stockpiled myself with alchemist fire, and we were off, he malice and I. He tricked us. He just killed Malice. He speaks lies in my ears. He is no follower of tyr. Who knows. He says he will save becca, but he is lying I think.

To whoever gets this, please, give it to becca, clara, my daughter in that body. She must understand. I was trying to do what's right. She must understand, It did me no good. Being good brings no good.

The man says that the sun is shining in the distance. He is a liar, I am still in the dark. There are no gods. I thought there was when becca was alive and alive again but their are not. I can see it as I die. If I can, I'll haunt this place forever. For there is nowhere else to go until my quest is done.

*The last entry is stained with blood*

OOC: Please, I need someone to tell me how awesome this character was, cuz I personally think he didn't die up to his standards. :P
