Hello!

Hi. Just a heads up.

I've mostly moved to www.artstation.com/luddeagle for a myriad of reasons (submission and showcasing's a lot easier there, et cetera) but I'll probably still be stalking around and posting work.
Also I do commissions now.

If you are more curious about the Erinshaw Respite :iconerinshawrespite:, the group has mostly moved to Discord. You can probably send a private note to them asking to join and such. They'll likely still insist on vetting you though.

Since it's the New Year and all, instead of the usual quiz, I'd like to introduce you to a simple riddle instead. :iconeneheplz:
Try and solve this:
Co-authored by pinkythepink

"Emily Scryamore has a variety of party members. There's four of them.

Emily and co. visit a restaurant in Waterdeep City. On the menu, there is:
:bulletpink:Maztican Salad
:bulletpink:Vegan Sheesh Kebab
:bulletpink:Deep Fried Pork Belly
:bulletpink:Jim's Chargrilled Fish Burger
:bulletpink:Honey Roasted Beef Steak
:bulletpink:Mushroom on Chicken Saute

Two of Emily's party members are from the city. Two of her party have a preference for vegetarian food. Emily is a lass and three of her friends share her gender. The one not sharing her gender likes to talk with his fists, and usually for freedom. The druid is a scholar from Candlekeep Institute, and proclaimed to Kahi that she'd really like to hear some local bardic poems, to which Kahi obliged and started reciting those poems for the scholar to jot down. The bard enjoys fish so she ordered the fish dish. Yi buys Lyfa some Pork Ribs as Lyfa had helped her out earlier to which Lyfa went thank you in a gushing fashion. As thanks, Lyfa went ahead and conjured up the same salad as the one on the menu for Yi, much to the chef's annoyance. While munching her salad, Yi interrupts Kahi's poem lessons. She asks why Kahi was back home after all this time. Kahi reveals she's on diplomatic business.

Kahi asks the same question back. Yi reveals she is here to report some archaeological finds to the local Historians' Guild. 

Suddenly, there was a huge commotion. Some thug was bothering the barmaid. The party turned to watch. Kleeck was infuriated and left the table. Kleeck grabbed the thug by the collar and shoved the thug. The thug got up and declared he was from Menbozzan and in Menbozzan, they do as they like and he wants to take the pretty barmaid back home. The monk declares he is also from the same land, tells the thug that trash like him is why he wants to change the power structure back home, and delivers a fist into the thug's jaw as "No." 

Chaos erupts.

After the chaos, the monk sat back down and ordered the other vegetarian dish. The druid clapped for him. The rest glared at him disapprovingly.

The bard and the archaeologist wound up footing the bill. The archaeologist pickpockets the botherer as 'payment'.

Emily is quite grumpy about the entire ordeal.

Can you guess (and match) what Emily's party members' names, professions (each one has two, one obvious, one less so), places of origin, and favourite foods are?"
(Emily doesn't count, you just have to answer for her party members)

First one to solve the puzzle and post the full answer in the comments wins! :dummy:
A person is allowed to have an attempt of three times before having to concede. 
**************************

Aaand we have a winner, :iconskriff: Skriff for solving the riddle! :dummy:
