Warlock Holmes walks into the bar. Although it is possibly not him but a magical duplicate. He is still mostly dressed for the season of masks with his magically morphed elven appearance. He sports ashen grey skin, fiery red eyes, and long white hair. Although he looks like the mechanical wizard he was attempting to be he is not dressed that way. Instead he wears a set of black robes embroidered with a white spiderweb pattern.
“Snakes!” He commands as he enters the bar. “I could use snakes. A lot of them with painful, but not deadly, venom. Yes that will do!”

*Xyun stares at you.*
-
“Are you going to keep staring at me or do you have something you wish to discuss?” The wizard says impatiently.
-
Xyun: “You need snakes do you not?”
-
“Yes I do. Specific ones. I will pay if you are willing to offer them.”
-
Xyun: “Which ones do you need.” | *Xyun’s mannerisms seem oddly snakelike.*
-
“I need ones with sharp fangs that can inject some particularly painful poison. Definitely not enough to kill anyone unless a lot. Let’s say I need this to scare away intruders.”
-
Xyun: “Which poison specifically?”
-
“Hmmm. I am not a expert in the field of...home security. Well poisoning. What are my options?”
-
Xyun: “Well I basically have every poison that I could find which aren’t many, about 35 or so.”
-
“Well what do you recommend? I am a master of the arcane arts not that of poison.”
-
Xyun: “Well the one’s I have paralyze the target and cause them just enough pain that they aren’t killed, except for one, that one hurts, a lot.”
-
“How Long do the paralyzations last?”
-
Xyun: “minimum of 12 hours.”
-
“That’s not going to work. I want to scare away intruders not have them lay in my layer for 12 hours surrounded by death traps. What is this other one you speak of?”
-
Xyun: “I could modify them to force the intruders to leave, though about that last one. Yeah, it could be an instant kill though the chances of it happening are impossible, most of the time the victims are teleported away to an undisclosed location, and by that I mean, they teleport directly to me. Then again I could modify that one as well to suit your liking.”
-
“Hmmm. Well I don’t want that. Simply what I want is enough of a fright for the wise intruders to decide to turn and run. I do not with to force them for intruders shall have to learn not to intrude. The foolish ones shall continue one where....let’s say I have other traps waiting.”
-
Xyun: “Ok, I’ve just modified the poisons to make sure that the work just as you want them to.”

-
Xyun: “Well what can you give me?”
-
“I am a master of the arcane arts. I have the capacity to travel across the planes of existence. Although that does take effort it is possible. Sometimes. Still I have a lot to offer. Name your price and I can tell you if it is possible.”
-
Xyun: “I have several prices that I could name, several things, though I think none of them will interest you.”
-
“Well this is indeed what I am paying you so my interest really don’t matter. Name your price.”
-
Xyun: “What souls do you have, if any?”
-
“I don’t like where this is heading.... But let us see. My soul is abnormal and one I am not entirely sure about myself. It is a mix of a elven one and the magical energies used to create. Or perhaps my greater attempted to mimic a elven soul. I am now sure.”
-
Xyun: “So that’s off the table, now what other things would be a good price?”
