and here is how we thought your Character could meet Her when helping me:
That could work! The black and red DA thingy. Oh and your idea?
Hmm...I dunno...Maybe he doesn't go in through the front door and sneaks in the workshop, which is upstairs along with her apartment, and she does the wall pin thing? It could work if the reason he snuck in was because her other workers refused to let him see 'Ms Rosalka' since she was working on a new experimental candy?
At first, she could go like:
*Whips out dagger and shoots out giant, jagged bits of hard candy, pinning him to wall* "Too easy...what are you trying to pull, trying to sneak up on a rogue? You should know that even retired old rogues like myself can still detect methods of stealth, you dummy. Now what do want?"
Then when she finds out he was sent by someone:
"Which Christian (that's your character, right?) are you talking about? I know eight Christians, and three of them are always up to no good." (you can take this part out. It's not very important)
Then she finds out that that someone is your character:
"How do I know you're telling the truth? For all I know, you could be some filthy Shadowscythe spy? I'll give you five seconds to prove your claim or it's OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!"
When proved by Amulet:
*dispels magic, freeing your student though leaving some scratches and ripped clothing* "My gosh...that IS Christian's...I can sense his magical signature anywhere...He should really write more often or send a note before he sends you off here...why did you sneak up on me though? Why can't you go up the front door like a civilized person?"
"You know, you could've told my dragon, he was the one who intercepted you, that you were from Christian and shown him that amulet. He would've sent you up without a fight and maybe even given you some free samples. Honestly...you heroes are too rash for your own good sometimes...Then again, I was like that once. I shouldn't blame you. Now, what is this about a curse?"
Explanation
"Sounds serious...I need to know exactly what type of curse he's infected with...I'm coming with you. No buts. Now tell me, what's the address? I'll teleport us both."
"Okay, I got it...oh and stop calling me 'Ms. Rosalka'. It sounds way too stuffy for me."
*whips out dagger and catches student with headlock* "Call me 'Rose', 'Rosa' or any other variation of my name which can translate to rose and I'll rip your throat out. It's 'Alka'. Call me 'Alka'. That's what my friends call me. Now...ARK! I'M GOING OUT!!
Ark: *yells from downstairs* Why?
"I'm going to visit an old friend. *finally smiles at your student* "Now, let's go!"
--
*reads up* Wow that's a huge amount of text...How're these for my character's lines? You can change them, if you like. I'm just providing an idea of my character's...well...character.
and here is what happens when she finds me:
Hm...actually, my character is highly paranoid and is always on her guard. (that's kinda the result of several assassination attempts, owing to her reputation both as a retired hero and as the best candy maker in miles around, and why she hired guards) She would probably be able to avoid that, using the flightiness that rogues are known for to evade then hit back with candy shrapnel from a distance and have a fight where no one's gaining (would it be okay with you if they were almost equals in power?) until they both end up five feet away from each other, one tired from a curse and the other tired from teleportation (she doesn't teleport much since it caused severe nausea, dizziness and had bad effects on her state of mind, depending on how far was the distance she had to travel), and she says:
"And I though I was paranoid! Good to see ya, old friend! Recognize me or does your curse thingamajiggy cause blindness?"
Then your character would be surprised to see her and maybe comment on how she hasn't aged a day (I repeat, not fully human...or is she? *cue evil laugh*) . Then the usual greetings and she'd start the medical examination before working on a cure.
Just an idea though. Yours could work too.
This very long of ideas i hoped i helped, it's your choice of what to use though.
She'd probably ask him to take his shirt off so she could give him a look over then ask for a blood sample. If he asks about why she needs a blood sample, she'd say: "Well it's either that or I paint complicated spells all over your body using fresh dragon dung. You choose. I don't really mind either way."
And during the examination, the first one, she'd ask him to stand up on a big sheet of paper then draw a circle around him. At first, she'd just walk around him, asking questions about how he's been feeling lately, when did the curse start, what caused the curse until she finished walking three full circles. Then she'd stab the ground with her dagger (a kalis knife) and mutter a few special words. Then he'd start glowing green and she'd close her eyes and stab the dagger deeper into the ground, the dagger starting to glow green as well. Then she'd mutter something, probably something like: "Oh Lords..." then take the dagger out of the ground. She'd wait until he stopped glowing, snap her fingers, making the paper with the circle vanish in a flash of bright light then ask for a blood sample.
With the blood sample, she spill a few drops into a bowl filled with clear liquid, mutter "Kal ag'yan" then spill the liquid onto another sheet of paper (if you want, she could use parchment) then fold the paper over and mutter "Liwana ga'moko", and the paper would turn red. Then she'd unfold it, and read out the parts that did not turn red.
Then she'd say: "Seriously Christian, you should've called me about this way earlier...I can still fix this...but it'll be way more complicated now..." then turning to his student, she'd say: "Are you a good fighter? If so, come with me. We have a lot of work to do."
Then she'd grab his hand, or arm, start teleporting back to the shop, toss a small pouch towards your character, yell at him to "Drink one bottle of this stuff a day! It'll taste horrible but it'll slow down the effects of your curse. Just hang on until I can make a permanent cure, okay?" then she'd finish the teleportation spell and reappear at the shop.
