Madness in Kintargo (Inactive)

Game Master Profession Smith 6 ranks

As the new Lord-Mayor Barzillai Thrune brutally imposes his will upon the city of Kintargo, his actions stir the embers of rebellion and a nearly-forgotten organization called the Silver Ravens rises from the ashes.

"We're happy to escort them home, and explain what happened to them to their parents and guardians. We'll also ask Turl and the Fushi sisters if they have heard anything about Jess. We may have to contact Jess' family if we can't find anything out soon." Davina waves to the youngsters to follow her. "We're heading to your homes now."

The Streets of Kintargo
The rescued apprentices Naomi and Morlan insist upon visiting their places of employment--the bakery and inn--before heading home to their families. The innkeeper, Alyss, offers to put you all up for the night for free--meals and drinks included--in gratitude for your good deed.

Turl's performers tend to operate on this side of the Bleakbridge--often checking in with both Songbird Hall and the relocated Kintargo Opera House Society--so it's possible he'd get in touch that night or tomorrow morning at the latest, under normal circumstances. The Fushi sisters, however, are nesting in secret in Villegre; if you returned there, you'd have to break curfew to return to your free rooms in Redroof at the Silver Stein Tavern.

Also, props to Davina for remembering about maybe letting Jessibel's family know that she's missing. That's an interesting, delicate situation. Having her granddaughter vanish while auspiciously working with the Silver Ravens could sour the Archbaroness on the organization, but at the same time the Aulamaxa family likely has resources that would prove helpful in a search. Tread lightly!

I hope we find her first. Letter her family know she's missing is the last resort. It's only been a day.

Davina is happy to stay at the Silver Stein. "I don't want to break curfew if we don't have to."

When she's seated in the common room with her companions. "We should find the Fushi sisters and Turl tomorrow morning. Does anyone have other ideas where Jess might be? I'm really not looking forward to informing the Archduchess her granddaughter is missing. She's scary."

During dinner she says, "We also shouldn't forget about firefly man. We forgot to ask Gavin if he bought all the fireflies. You would think the proprietress would know Gavin on sight since he's her apprentice."[/b]

Leora is glad to take Naomi and Morlan to the bakery and inn before escorting them back to their families. After all, it was their employers that the group originally talked to, and they should let them know the kids were safe.

She enjoys the opportunity to stay at the Silver Stein - since the Silver Ravens had been trying to keep a low profile lately, she felt she'd had to minimize her nights out at Kintargo's various bars and taverns.

She talks with Davina and the rest of her companions at the Silver Stein "I agree - I hope the Fushi sisters or Turl have a lead on Jessi. I've never met the Archduchess, and I don't want to if I don't have to!"

"Oh come on Davina, did Dom tell you to ask about the firefly man?" Leora jokes. Winking at Dom, she asks "You just don't want to lose another sail to me, do you? Just cuz a couple weird things all happen at the same time doesn't mean they're related. But I still bet the firefly guy has nothing to do with this, so we can keep looking for as long as you like!"

"Of course I don't want to lose! But I'd flip your comment around. Just because some things seem unrelated, doesn't mean they are. We check anyway. What do we call that..." Domitius snaps his fingers a few times, trying to remember the word he'd heard Davina's barrister use, "...due diligence, right? And besides, I'm sure I'm not gonna lose this one," he grins and winks back at Leora.

"And one more thing, Leora: Jessibel's grandmother's title is Archbaroness, not Archduchess. I'm not sayin I understand the difference," he shrugs, "But if we go to her sayin' we misplaced Jess, that's the sorta thing that'll blow he whole thing up. I think I've avoided attracting her attention to this point. Chelish nobles - even the nice ones, like her - tend to view guys in my former position as practically part of the furnishings. Unfortunately, her dog..." Dom shudders and drains the rest of his mug with uncharacteristic speed, grimacing as he does so. "He stares at me. I don't know what the mutt thinks he's seeing, bt it's most unnerving."

I'm back! :) /waves

The Silver Stein Tavern (Redroof District)

Turl and a wiry male human and fellow performer named Augandus arrive at the Silver Stein just before curfew. The dwarf is pleased to see Dom amongst the group, telling him that Jessibel's had him scouring the city for him and Sabrina since they went missing. Turl listens to all your reports about your investigations into the missing apprentices before revealing what little he knows at this point.

"I honestly don't know why Lady Jessibel would wander into Redroof alone if she wasn't doin' some investigatin' into the missin' apprentices...yet ye say that no one involved ever laid eyes on her. That to me means one of two things: either her business in Redroof wasn't related to the missin' apprentices or somethin' happened to her before she reached the nearest place of employment for those missin' teens. Do ye have Lady Lydia's map? Might I take a look at it...?"

After going over the map, Turl says that three locations are more or less equidistant from and nearest to Songbird Hall: the footwear shop, the potions shop, and the haberdashery. Letting out a dejected sigh, the dwarf admits that's a lot of ground to cover.

"The lass told me that she felt responsible for what happened to yer friend Lucius hereabouts," the dwarf admits quietly, "but I don't think she'd be stupid...err, unwise enough to hunt his assailants herself. She also had a notion that maybe the Red Jills could be brought around to help dethrone Lord-Mayor Thrune, even though I kept tellin' her that was unlikely. Again, though, I don't think she'd be foolish enough to try to broker some deal alone without tellin' anyone about it."

Turl's able to give you another potential lead, however; around the same time that the two-man Queensman patrol vanished in Redroof, the remains of a local businessman were found in an alley. There was so little of the man left that he was only tentatively identified when a local warehouse owner and operator named Rastuni failed to show up to open his business. It just so happens that the warehouse where your group found the abducted apprentices belonged to Rastuni.

That might help you guys form a working theory or two as to where to center your investigation going forward. You might also try to gather rumors while you're at the tavern using the Knowledge (local) skill. And here's a link to Paqshari's description of the Firefly Guy since you guys seem so fixated on him. ;)

Knowledge (local): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

In between circuits of the room trying to get a feel for peoples' stories, Dom looks at the map Turl has laid out, his gaze continually returning to the spot marking the alchemist's shop. "I'm starting to think we should return to Paqshari's shop. I think the..."

Hold on, did Leora say she was a gnome or a halfling? It was gnome, right? Maybe? Aaaaagh!

"...I think the small green lady might be more than she appears."

Davina makes conversation with the other patrons about local happenings. She nods in agreement with Dom. "There was something odd about her."We should head back.

The Silver Stein Tavern (Redroof District)

Most of the coversations passing between the patrons of the tavern are centered upon peoples' jobs...or the lack thereof due to the new lord-mayor's proclamations and martial law. Davina does hear one bit of news spoken by a scrawny tiefling that might relate back to demon's bile, however.

Davina's Rumor:

A giant centipede was found rooting through a trash pile in Devil’s Nursery. It’s awfully early in the season for a giant bug to make an appearance.

Leora nods in agreement with Dom's idea about revisiting the gnome. "How about we go back to Paqshari's and tell her we suspect there might be some residual demon bile there and want to check the place out. We can say Gavin's being healed up at the temple and won't be able to come back for a few days, and we need to make sure there's no more goop around to infect him. "

Dom suggests that the group could add the incentive that Gavin would spill the beans on this demon bile once Songbird hall cured him, giving Paqshari some incentive to fess up to anything.
Dom, hope you don't mind me plagiarizing what you said in the discussion thread!

"So who wants to do it? Probably shouldn't be me, Paqshari got pretty ticked off at me last time we were there. And it'll look a lot less suspicious if only one or two of us go in there."

Later
Leora talks to several folks around the Silver Stein to fish for rumors, but has a hard time getting anything but odd looks when she starts talking about centipedes, worms, and warehouses.

"I'll do it," says T'chazzar. "She may have seen me once, but she doesn't know me and my, er, 'kind' have something of a reputation, anyway."

Davina waves Turl over later in the evening. "Turl would you please find the Fushi sisters and ask them to start the search for Jess as well? The more people looking the faster we may get a lead on her whereabouts. I'm worried. She's brash, but she's been missing too long."

After T'chazzar speaks up, Domitius says, "I'll come with, back you up if you want? Maybe Kiri, you come too and watch from the rooftops? You've gotten pretty good at that... fwoosh!" Dom makes a soaring motion with his hand.

No prob, Leora. Again, I was trying to leave room for others to jump in, otherwise I almost feel like I'm talking to myself. ("So that's the plan, what do you think Dom?" "Sounds great, Other Dom!")

The Next Morning: Paqshari's Potions & Poultices (Redroof District)

"Hmph! You two again!" That's the greeting you get from the green gnome lady Paqshari when you enter her shop. Her hand's in the pocket of her bright green robe (a shade lighter than the one she wore yesterday) but she seems to suddenly realize how rude she's being and lets out a sigh. "Well--did you find any of the missing kiddos or at least sniff out a good lead or two?"

Not sure if Kiri's being the lookout for Dom & T'chazzar or staying with Davina and Leora; let me know. Also, anyone not at Paqshari's.... What will you be doing while the others are there? Check in with High Priest Vhast about Gavin and Blackfeather, maybe? Or just sleep in and eat a late brunch?

Hey, those of us who are suffering from ability damage can knock a point off for the night's rest, right?

My plan is to wait on T'chazzar and play off his post before I say anything to Paqshari, BTW.

I totally forgot about that. The priests at Songbird Hall could've healed that for you in thanks for getting back Triella and the other missing apprentices. For simplicity's sake, let's assume they did. You guys have all ability damage healed.

I'm sure Davina and her what, 28? 30? points of Dex damage will thank you the most. :)

Kiri cocked her head as she looked at Domitius for a moment and then nodded as she said, "Yes, I can come with you and go...fwoosh, to keep watch. The apprentice must be found."

The next day, when they reached the area around Paqshari's Potions & Poultices, Kiri looked for a good vantage point and told Domitius and T'chazzar, "I'll go up there," she pointed at a roof from wich she could watch for trouble coming their way, "and if I see trouble I'll hit the roof of the shop with a gust to signal you."


Male Drow Paladin (Gray Paladin, Tempered Champion) 6 | 4/40 HP | AC 19 T 14 FF 16 | Fort +5 Ref +5 Will +6 | SR 12 | Initiative +3 | Perception +15, Sense Motive +12 | Dancing Lights 1/1 | Darkness 1/1 | Faerie Fire 1/1 | Divine Bond 1/1 | Lay on Hands 5/5 | Smite Evil 2/2

T'chazzar nods to Kiri as she launches into the air. "Thank you," she barely manages to hear as she swoops to her perch. Then he turns and slides in and holds the door open for Dom.

"We managed to sniff out an 'interesting lead,'" says T'chazzar after he listens to Paqshari. He carefully closes the door after Dom enters, then (surprisingly) lowers his hood. "Gavin was awash in demon's bile. I'm sure I don't need to tell a skilled alchemist like yourself how bad that can be. We're trying to track down the source... Gavin had already infected some other subjects with it, and had stashed some away. We have to be thorough if we're going to make sure that none of it gets out and causes more problems." He idly picks up a pestle from the shelf, looks at it, then peers down the shelf itself, as if looking for things that might be hidden in dark recesses and corners, before finally replacing the pestle. "We'd better take a thorough look around - Gavin might've hidden more of the stuff around here, and it does tend to spread. Last thing you need is you or your customers getting infected, right?"

When the group is nearing Paqshari's the next morning, Leora suggests to Davina that the two of them wait about a block away from the alchemist's shop, and can wait for Kiri's signal if something goes wrong.

GM, it wouldn't be too out of the ordinary for Leora and Davina to hang out on the street corner like a block away, would it? We could window shop or something to make it look more convincing if there aren't many people loitering.

Domitius nods at Kiri. "Sounds good. If she leaves, we might sneak back in. If we do that, you follow her, and when she starts heading back, you hit the roof with that signal."

Dom notices the hand Paqshari is keeping in her pocket, and forces himself to keep cool. Stick to the plan. He nonchalantly takes the lid off a jar of bits-floating in goop, then re-lids it after getting a whiff. "<blech> Yeah, shouldn't be a problem. As soon as the priests down at Songbird Hall have cured Gavin of the bile infection, they seem to think they'll be able to get everything from him. Locations, accomplices, the whole deal. Won't be long now before we have the whole thing wrapped up, I think."

You know what? While we're in here, Domitius is gonna keep an eye out for anything that he wouldn't have known would be suspicious before. Like, the first time we were in here, a giant purple-oozing bug in a jar might have seemed weird, yeah, but wouldn't have set off my Domitius-sense.

No problem. Kintargo's suffering under Barzillai Thrune's rule, but it's still a sputtering version of 'business as usual' during the daylight hours.

Paqshari's Potions & Poultices (Redroof District)

"Demon's bile?" Paqshari echoes. "What's that? Are you trying to tell me Gavin's been consorting with a demon and collecting the bile out of its liver??!! That's the most harebrained thing I've ever heard!"

The green gnome glares up at T'chazzar and Domitius defiantly, but then her eyes become clouded with worry.

"You say you found Gavin? Is the lad all right? Is there anything in my shop that might aid in his recovery?" Paqshari removes her empty hand from her robe pocket and asks for an explanation of what demon's bile is, looks like, and what it did to her apprentice. She offers to help you both search her shop for any hidden samples of the stuff.

You both feel that the gnome's surprise ISN'T an act. Follow through on a search of her shop?

Davina watches the shop from the corner with Leora. "What do you think? Will we be running in to save the day soon or with the guys find out what we need to know without breaking anything?" Her eyes scan the street while trying not to look like she's loitering. She gets distracted by the pretty dress, and parasol in the window.

Leora looks around too, and glances at Kiri perched on the rooftop in case she was giving a signal. "I dunno. Paqshari was pretty quick to fly off the handle at me last time. I hope the news that he's safe helps Dom and T make their case."

"Aw man, I totally forgot to ask Zacharin or Lydia if they had any holy water, since it might help set Gavin right again."

Domitius shakes his head and tries to explain. “No, it's not bile like you'd see inside a tree trunk. This stuff, it's like, ummmm… Ms Eradon would really be the one to explain this. Like leftovers from when demons are spawned. For some reason, insects and crawly sorts are the ones most susceptible to it. People and higher animals can seemingly succumb to it as well, but we think for that ingesting the stuff is a key.” Dom pauses for a moment. “When you cook, is Gavin the sort to lick the spoons?” Okay, I've changed my mind about getting any potions that might be made on the premises.

“Removing the stuff can be tricky. Gavin noted that fire and acid didn't help much. One surefire way we discovered is a cleric’s ability to channel the power of the gods. We haven't yet tested holy water - ahhh, son of a…!” Dom is fuming suddenly, apparently mad at himself. “Dammit T’chazzar, we were ​right there in the temple and I forgot to pick up some holy water!”

"Madam, we found Gavin operating out of a nearby warehouse that had been owned by a man named Ratsuni. While we did... subdue him, we suspect he was not working alone, and there might still be some more of this bile laying about somewhere. If you have any other ideas where he might hide himself or posessions, that could help enormously."

Paqshari's Potions & Poultices (Redroof District)

T'chazzar & Dom surreptitiously scan the shop for more demon's bile (or anything else out-of-place or suspicious) but find nothing. At Dom's words about 'where he might hide himself or possessions,' Paqshari gets that fidgety, worried look again. Her hand dips into her robe pocket again but immediately comes back out empty.

"Ah, um...well, you see.... I visited the home of Gavin's parents yesterday, both to check in and ask about him and to warn that a bunch of dicey-looking strangers were asking about him...but there was no answer. I'd visited when the boy first failed to report for work and his mother told me that Gavin was a bit under the weather and would return to work once he was well. That was over a week ago now.... Perhaps you two could check his folks' home and make sure they're all right?"

Out in the streets, all is calm. Kiri, Davina, and Leora see nothing out of the ordinary.

Dom's face betrays an annoyed expression at Paqshari's talk of 'dicey-looking characters', but forces himself to ignore his flaring temper and focus on what she's saying. He closes his eyes and holds his forehead in concentration for a moment, trying to remember where they'd heard about the centipede.

"Gavin's parents, any chance they live in the Devil's Nursery?"

"No, no, mostly hellspawn--tieflings--dwell in the Devil's Nursery," the gnome replies. "The Brassvanes live in a nice little house a couple of blocks to the north in Redroof. I can give you the address, I suppose...though perhaps I should tag along to make sure you two don't rob the place."

"Rob the...!?!?" Dom pauses, counts to ten, continues on to twenty-seven, then glares at Paqshari, unconsciously rubbing the spot the fly jabbed into his neck. "I'm goin' outside. You want the Brassvanes bailed out of the danger your idiot apprentice put them in, give their address to my associate. You can come with, or don't, I don't care." He stalks to the door, briefly fantasizes about how fantastic it would be to break it on the way out, but in the end just opens it and goes into the street, fuming.

T'chazzar holds out his empty hands and says, "We didn't get paid to track down Gavin and put a stop to the demon's bile that was spreading, so our motivation isn't money." He watches Dom leave and then says to Paqshari, "I don't want to cause trouble. This business of Gavin's parents going missing is no good - if they succumbed to the bile, or worse still the bile caused Gavin to do something bad, it's worth a check."

The gnome stares at T'chazzar for several long seconds before speaking.

"Actually, you were the one I thought looked most suspicious, but it turns out you're the quiet and polite one. Very well--I'll give you the Brassvanes' address...."

Paqshari tells T'chazzar the address of her apprentice's parents. Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until tomorrow to deal with that location.

Davina sees Dom storm out of the shop looking angry. "Uh oh that doesn't look good. I wonder what happened." she says to Leora. She crosses to him. "Are you alright Dom? Did she say or do something that upset you? Did you learn anything?"

Are you happy now, Domitius? You got Ms Eradon thinkin' you blew it. Smooth move.

Dom rapidly gets his act together, holding up a hand and shaking his head. "My apologies, Sudarynya, I didn't mean to worry you. That Paqshari woman, she just got under my skin. With any luck, T'chazzar is inside getting the address of Gavin's parents. Zelenaya went there yesterday to check on Gavin, and there was no answer." Dom pauses for a breath. "Then she implied we intend to rob the house, and I decided it was best to come outside before something or someone got broken."

Orcish:
Zelenaya, tr. "The green one"

"Well" Davina sputters. "See if we give her our business anymore. How dare she imply we wanted to rob a house. We are trying to help. I should go give her a piece of my mind." She takes a deep breath and then smiles "Good choice on not breaking anything or anyone. You had better self control that I would have."

Domitius smiles back at Davina's encouraging words. "Thank you. But if there ever is breaking to be done in places like this, please allow me. You still have a good name to uphold."

Inside the shop

T'chazzar repeats the address to himself to help commit it to memory.

"Thank you for your help. I'm sorry that you've had to go through all of this. Gavin should hopefully be back to normal soon and we'll be able to put this all behind us," says T'chazzar.

The dark elf heads back to the door and with his hand on the handle he turns and says, "Also, you might want to take that out of your pocket. You keep fiddling with it and it's going to make someone nervous. And I suspect you don't want to accidentally drop it." Then he nods his head, brings up his hood with one hand, opens the door with the other, and steps outside.

Outside

"I have the address. We'd best hurry and find out what happened to Gavin's parents."

Brassvane Residence (Redroof District)

The family home of Gavin Brassbane and his parents is a well-kept two-story dwelling similar to most others in Redroof District: constructed of brick and topped with red tile shingling. Its windows are cloaked with closed, thick-slatted shutters and a tarnished brass knocker is set into the door. Smoke billowing from the chimney indicates life within.

A quick check reveals that the front door is locked.

The link to the Roll20 Battlemap beneath my alias should now take you to the Brassvane residence. I left Dom's token moveable by any player for convenience going forward.

Outside Paqshari's
Leora rolls her eyes as Dom describes what happened inside Paqshari's shop. "I dunno what her problem is! When we went to try and get more information about Gavin, she almost threw us out when she found out we weren't going to buy anything."

When T'chazzar comes out of the shop, Leora says "Awesome! Let's go!"

Brassvane Residence
"Huh. Odd that Paqshari couldn't get ahold of anyone yesterday, but someone's lit a fire today." Leora scans the Brassvane residence for any other clues as to what is going on. She checks to see if any of the shades are drawn over the windows, though she doesn't actually go up to them to peer inside yet. She takes a quick walk around the outside of the house to look for anything out of the ordinary.

In reply to Leora, Dom smiles and shrugs. "I wonder whether I'd buy something from a store whose owner thinks Gavin is such a great apprentice, eh?"

When the group reaches the Brassvane residence, Dom specifically eyes up the door, checking for anything that might give away the presence of a trap. Turning to Davina, he says, "Working on the lock might be less... disruptive than the other means at our disposal. Shall I?"

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
(Or not. Yikes!)

Brassvane Residence (Redroof District)

While Dom checks the front door for traps (none found), Leora circles the home, examining it more closely. Although all the windows are shuttered, she notices that one on the ground floor (the one to the left of the door, near where Leora's token currently is) is slightly broken and is stained with a dark, oozing substance that does NOT appear to be demon's bile.

Feel free to reposition your token's position if desired. Then make whatever rolls you'd like to pick locks, break windows, bust down the door, etc.

Dom inspects the broken window Leora noticed.

Is it broken enough to allow entry?

Oops--bad description with poor wording! The shutter is what's slightly broken, not the window. Since you've poked around, I'll let you know that the windows are all locked as well.

Gotcha. In that case, Dom will stand by for direction on method of entry.

Kiri nodded in agreement about the oddity of the house, "Yes, very odd." She looked up then and began looking for a means of entry at a higher floor. She wondered if it would be possible to ascend to a place that may be unlocked and then throw a rope down so the others could climb up.

Kiri spies two windows on the home's upper level, but the shutters are closed and likely secured.

Davina slips up to the front door, and removes her backpack. She pulls out her lockpicks, and grins at Dom. "Could you block the view from the street please?"

"Of course, Sudarynya," Dom smirks as he bows.

He turns and stands on the walkway to the front door, being as nonchalantly wide as he possibly can. The little smirk on his face dies out as he starts thinking.

You stood like this in front of no small number of Sabrina and Jessibel's hijinks, and where are they now? No more screwups, man. As these thoughts go through his mind, his face darkens into a scowl.

"If I get this lock Dom, I believe I'm up one on our little practice sessions. I still can't believe you triple locked the workshop." she mumbles as she concentrates.
