[Action Post]: Hey There Skull!

[harrys_skull]

[Sitting on the reception desk is a human skull. Your standard boring human skull with empty eye sockets and made of weathered bone. This skull, however, isn't completely normal. The bone is covered with strange runes that look older than the skull itself. It might be worth it to pick it up to examine them or it might not, the choice is up to you.]

It is. But my friend had green skin and little horns on his head, so I count myself very lucky. I'm curious what warlocks look like in other worlds... as I know the elves I have seen here are not from my home.

[Grinning, he knew he liked this entity.]

A sentient being after my own heart. Do tell, my new friend, got a name? I am Magnus Bane.

[harrys_skull]

Warlocks were I come from are consumed by the dark magic they create...nasty stuff trust me.

Name's Bob.

[magnus_bane]

That is certainly possible. I have seen warlocks die horrible deaths for practicing the more forbidden arts.

[He's done some. But not to cause problems... more to make money. But even then he's very careful it is safe and causes no calamity.]

Pleasure to meet you, Bob. You give off quite a strong magical aura. My magic is a little skewed here... so I could be wrong.

[harrys_skull]

Nice to meet you Magnus. And I should give off some major magical juice. I used to be Fae...got cursed by Mab to be stuck in this skull...don't ask. And now I'm a spirit of air and knowledge.

[magnus_bane]

Oh? You do not feel like the Fae I know. But yes, that is a powerful magic... [He pauses thinking about this.] Did you do something to be stuck in this state? You need not say, just curiosity...

Knowledge can be dangerous when the wrong person has it.

[harrys_skull]

I uh pursued someone I shouldn't have and that is all I'm going to say about that.

[Bob's eyes blink, which is his version of a nod.]

Believe me I know that better then most. Worked for a few dozen warlocks over the centuries.

[magnus_bane]

Tsk... how cliche. But certainly something that happens.

[He grins all pleased. He rather likes this being. Very entertaining.]

Luckily for you, I know better than to mess with power I shouldn't. Call it a lesson learned from a not so fabulous demon father.

[harrys_skull]

Yeah among the Fae it's a national pastime and my only crime was getting caught.

Sounds like you and I would get along.
