There's no question you're the most prepared for that task - do you want the job?

Yes , of course !

Spoiler:

There is, in fact.

"I didn't hear nothing else, though, and it don't pay to get too involved, so I went back to sleep after a bit. That's all I know about your friend, sorry."

Jugger reaches into the pocket inside his leather long-coat and pulls out his coin purse. Opening it up, he sifts around a bit, and silently counts out 5 gold. Handing it to the woman, he looks her squarely in the eye and says, "It would have paid better if ye'd gotten more involved."

He turns away, and moves towards the next apartment.

I love seeing Jugger get so far up on his moral high horse. :D

Jugger finds three more people willing to open their doors for him, and he gets similar tales each time: a loud thump, either very late last night or very early this morning (depending on your perspective), then nothing else.

Spoiler:

Clifford will go to the morgue and ask if there has been a dwarf corpse brung today

"Well, lads, it seems this lot would rather others get skinned t'save their own. May whate'er hells they wake up to keep th'water at their finger tips."

Turning towards the other two men, it is apparent that Jugger is barely holding his anger in check.

"What about you, Hezekiah? Jagor? Do either of you 'ave an idea?"

"No, I'm at a loss. I'm inclined to guess that Larur staged his own disappearance, but anyway I don't like this. Also I'm uneasy about leaving Clifford at the Goblin. Anything might happen."

"What about you, Hezekiah? Jagor? Do either of you 'ave an idea?"

Jagor appears very surprised to be asked his opinion, but the grimace on his face makes it clear that he's trying to come up with something. "What about lady in Lah-roar apartment? Maybe she find something...?" Then he shrugs his big shoulders and looks at Jugger hopefully.


Re-questioning the woman now squatting in Larur's apartment produces no additional information.


Growing increasingly frustrated, Jugger slams his fist against the wall of the building as the trio leaves Larur's apartment.

"You boys head back t'the Goblin, and see t'Clifford," he growls. "Ye might mention the idea of offerin' a reward to Saul, an'see what he says. I'm goin' t'go help clean up after the weirdness from earlier."

With that, Jugger gives a quick salute, and heads off towards the docks.

Shisumo:

Spoiler:
Actually, he's headed to the dirtiest dock-side grog house he can find.

Shisumo , spoiler ?


Sorry - was putting some ducks in a row.

Clifford:

Spoiler:
The morgue has no record of a dwarf matching Larur's description being brought in since last night - no dead dwarves at all, "though we do have a baboon, if you can believe that."

Clifford can also appraise them of course

My question was more : 'Are any of them magical ? "

How quickly they fall off into the archives!

Well, we've lost at least one player and the GM. robin has offered to pick up the GM slack. If he's still willing, how many interested players are still with us?


Actually the only characters continuing are Jagor and Hezekiah.
If I take the DMastering , I'll try to keep Clifford in a supporting role but he won't continue as a real PC . So I guess we'll need at least 2 other players , 3 would be optimal
I'll thnk about it a little more and try to post a recruitment drive this week end


Male Human Wizard 1 (diviner)

I'm afraid I'm going to have to pass on this one too. I need to focus on keeping the games I DM alive.


Well, it's up to you, robin. I'm not going to ask you to "recover" a game with only one player. Feel free to declare this one dead and start your own or we can both walk away as the sole survivors. I'm fine either way.

Sorry , Jagor , but indeed for only one player , I prefer to stop

It was fun while it lasted !

Indeed. Stick a fork in this one, folks! It's done!
