Antonius starts off by trying to hunt down Maiveer Sloan.

A gaunt, fashionably dressed Chelaxian handshakes his way through the room, accompanied by a half-dozen followers who appear to be equal parts attendant and bodyguard. As he progresses through the room, he makes it to Antonius. He holds his hand out for a handshake, and says in a tone familiar to all who have been in at a social gathering that they don't really want to be at, "Good day. Maiveer Sloan, at your acquaintance. Who might I have the ... pleasure ... of meeting?'

You managed to spot the following in the ledger:

*Dymal Rinks, independent
*The Duchesses representing no one

diplomacy to find Ernst

Near the front of the gathering, vying for a look at the key, stands a balding, weathered old man wearing heavy robes stitched with runes. Despite his age, his face beams with a boyish grin as he gazes at the curious artifact.

You will have to engage him to learn anything more. This goes for all of the guests.

With barely a thought Antonius returns to his human form. He shakes Maiveer Sloans hand warmly and smiles, Why hello there, my name is Viscount Antonius Gallonica, of Lionsguard in Taldor. Of course you could be none other than the famous Maiveer Sloan. Your name and reputation are well known in political circles.

Antonius turns, gently and subtly leading the man by the elbow to try and put his back to his minions so that they can speak confidentially.

I am not surprised to see such a ranking member of the Aspis Consortium here. I do hope that your organisation and those...Imperial...interests which I represent don't come into conflict over this trifling trinket. Tell me, does the Aspis Consortium really want the complications something like this must surely bring?

Antonius inclines his head at Maiveers claim to have no interest in the Key I have, in my time, served the Order of the Gate, policing the activities of fiends within the borders of Cheliax but now my interests are focused in Taldor and it is they I represent.

He takes a glass of wine from a passing servant.

I am sure you are the very soul of discretion, my current directions come from Opparra in whose Court I now make my home. I do occasionally return to Cheliax to deal with some troublesome fiend the more junior members cannot handle but it has been some time since that was necessary.

Do I need another sense motive to check on his claim to have no interest in the Key or does the one in my post above count?

Moving slowly through the crowd is an uncomely woman with large teeth and a shrewlike nose, dressed unbecomingly in the drab clothing of a stevedore. Slight in stature with a slightly stooped posture, she behaves in a mostly standoffsh manner. Slipping to the edge of the crowd, she nervously waits for the key. Spotting the artifact, she make a few quick notes then slips off.

A pathfinder no longer my friend. I was once part of their organization. Lovely folks, but unfortunately never the types who could really make a splash in things like this... He gestures at his belt pouch If you understand me. No this item is simply a relic of those days. Thankfully, I am a man of more means nowadays. Though I cannot imagine that I can compete with a museum! He smiles wistfully.

So what do you think it is? It reminds me a bit of..... Vuvu drops some information about some suitably similar historical artifact, hopefully one connected with Magnimar, and one that went at auction

1d20 + 23 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 23 + 2 = 36 History

If I recall that went for quite a high asking price...do you think you have a shot?

Switching back to wayang form Antonius says Of course, of course, as he smiles at the lying piece of dung.

Via telepathy ok, the Aspis definitely want it. Do one of you lot who like threatening people want to come over here and warn Sloan off?

Antonius allows the insult to pass unremarked, His Imperial Majesty remains well informed, as does his daughter Princess Eutropia., Antonius scans the room. There are lots of potential bidders here, it is sad however that none of them really possess the resources of Imperial Taldor. I fear they are all due for disappointment, such is life I suppose when one is part of these little nations or minor organisations.

I have two quick questions. Is there a mechanic for us to warn off/undermine rival bidders or is this just an information gathering session? Also, while I understand that all spellcasting has visible manifestations Veil sets my visual appearance. If I were to cast a silenced spell would that be noticeable? I honestly have no idea and am happy with whatever you decide.

VC - Sydney, Australia

***OVERSEER POST***

The cathedral’s sexton calls everyone’s attention “The pre-auction gala has ended; all must leave the cathedral immediately. Thank you for attending and we’ll see many of you back here for the auction.”

You return to the Heidmarch Mansion. The theater is filled with your fellow Pathfinders, all buzzing with excitement. Sheila Heidmarch, raises her hands and quiets the room before speaking. “Well my colleagues, I trust you were successful this evening? Anyone have information to share? Let’s see some hands.”

A dwarf clad in full plate with a great hammer on his back calls out ”Aye, we met Rinks, a halfling who said he was acting on behalf of one of his clients. We found out that he has spent the last few months here in Magnimar betting on the bullfights at the Matador’s Lodge. He was not as lucky as most of his kind and has run up a sizable debt with the lodge’s owner, Master Basaale Minvandu. The halfling is staying in the Old Fang Inn”

A couple of humans push a grippli forward ”Quon here also has to report something” they say. The grippli turns a brighter shade of green and then softly starts speaking ”I am afraid we made a bit of a mess at the gala. That Chelaxian woman, Zimandi Kaddren, found out that we are with the Pathfinder Society and she immediately stormed off in anger, saying that she would take every effort to outbid the Society at the auction.” The grippli seems to have found his voice as he continues ”We asked around and we discovered that her parents vanished during an expedition to a mysterious fortress known as Viperwall in central Varisia. I think that she blames the disappearance of her parents upon the Pathfinder Society.”

A famous halfling jumps on a table ”I am Lem and I can report that the curator of the Museum of Ages is also interested in the artifact! Doctor Landis has secured a donation for the key. He thinks it is an item of great historical significance, and that it was created by Emperor Xin to unlock a temple of seven paradises. I would have expected that Nigel Aldain of the Blakros museum would also be present, but I did not see him. That is all for me!”

A human woman calls out, the symbol of Iomedae obvious on the buckler that she has strapped to her left arm. On the same hip she has an Aldori duelling sword. ”I talked to two women dressed in travellers’ outfits. Both had with thick Varisian accents. They introduced themselves as ‘the Duchesses’ and said they live in Ordellia where they work as caravan guards. Beyond that, they had little to say.”

A servant rushes in and hands Sheila Heidmarch a note ”Give me a moment, this is probably important, otherwise Jacob here would not have disturbed us”. She reads the note and briefly ponders it for a moment.

“Well, my friends, it seems Desna smiles upon us. My sources have just informed me that the Aspis Consortium has fewer funds than we first imagined. Thus, they have sent word to an ally in Korvosa to ship them more gold. Fortunately, I still have a few spies in Korvosa. A few days ago, the Consortium hired a Varisian caravan to carry a sizable shipment of gold to Magnimar, presumably to help them secure the Runecarved Key’s purchase.”

“The caravan was traveling along the Yondabakari River and should be nearing the outskirts of the city in a few hours. I need you to ride out to the caravan before it gets within sight of the city walls and ensure that gold never reaches the Aspis Consortium at Bronze House. Take whatever gold you can, but try not to draw attention to yourselves as Pathfinders. It’s bandit territory out there anyway, so caravan raids aren’t uncommon. That said, rest assured the caravan will be armed. As soon as you’re finished, hurry back here. We don’t want Maiveer Sloan to catch on to our plot. I’ll send a white raven to signal you to return before the situation becomes too risky.”

Table GMs, you should start encounter 2.

The gala took about an hour, give or take (and as such was a short gala).

As you need to make your way "out of sight of the city walls", I reckon it is about an hour's travel ("several miles").

Note: I am planning on managing the durations on the buff sheet, if that's ok?

Vuvu, you'll want to expend another round of performance for Triple Time if you want that active when you reach the caravan.

Happy for you to maintain durations but if you could update us on times that would be great so I can manage spell slots.

Antonius, are you casting the extra stuff before you head out?

What are folks doing for light, as it is night time

Several miles outside of the city walls, a side trail branches o and away from the Yondabakari and winds south into a forest of ancient evergreens. Off to the side of the path, nestled into a deep pocket of spruces, sleeps a small Varisian caravan, only two wagons strong.

Spoiler:

Avoreal Perception: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (9) + 25 = 34

Everyone notices the snake emblem representing the Aspis Consortium on the side of the wagons.

You are free to approach the camp from any direction... place your minis, and make your stealth rolls, if needed.

The buffs on the list are the current ones active. Antonius has Darkvision. His current init is +21 with heightened awareness used. He will activate his ring of invisibility

If anyone cannot see in the dark let me know and I will cast darkvision on you

Via telepathy, Friends, the enemy is ahead of us, I can cloak all of us within an invisibility sphere if you wish or just teleport us into their midst. Remember to hide your wayfinders, we don't want to give the game away.

Arriving unannounced would be best. Vuvu, you are I think the best choice for this.

Antonius will cast Invisibility Sphere on Vuvu, I recommend the rest of you stay near him until it breaks. I will obviously do it far enough from the camp that they shouldn't hear us. Antonius will be off to one side, I have my own invisibility from the ring. Just a note, he also has Mind Blank so doesn't get spotted by see invisibility or true seeing.

It is my understanding that a wayfinder only lights itself up. It might not be clearly stated that way, but is our local convention, and how I run it.

Of course, with the Darkvision spells, it is a moot point. FYI - low light vision means you see perfectly clearly, as it is a normal starry night.
