The Brute Squad Gambit (Inactive)

Game Master ThorGN

Noa's blindness fades so she can see again.

Wymund is bleeding out. It's hard to tell if he is still alive or not. If he is, he won't be for long.

Dasiji half-heartedly tries to staunch Wymund's bleeding, only using mundane means.

Heal (first aid): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

"Oi, where be Kort? He alright?" Broot asks as he steps up next to Dasiji. " 'Ere, tie this bandage off higher an' le's remove all these arrows.

assist on first aid: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

With the assistance of Broot, Dasiji is able to staunch the bleeding. He does seem to be still alive, barely.

"I think we should check to see if he has any friends hiding here, and then take him to the authorities for complicity in murder."

"We can' carry him back, we go' no legal righ'. Bu' somebo'dy here mus' care wha' happens."

"Agreed. There must be a precinct or barracks of sorts that we can turn 'im over to the duskwar'ens at for right?"

Dasiji hmmms. "Noa has a point. We take him to the guards ourselves, they're going to have some hard questions about what happened to him. It might be better to just report his location when we report his crimes. On the other hand, if we leave him alone, someone else could rescue him or murder him before the law gets here, and we wouldn't even know." He starts poking around, checking backstage, making sure they hadn't missed anything.

As you search through the papers on the stage you find supply lists
and a list of code names and dates. There is also a list of
cities on one sheet: Absalom, Sothis, Kaer Maga, Oppara,Whitethrone, and Almas.

"I thin' we have to take him to somebo'y near here. I mean' before, tha' we can no' take him back to Absalom. And i' shoul' be no surprise to us, when we hear some others broke him ou'. If they go' six cities, they can come an' ge' him. An' they maybe don' have to even travel, they migh' be righ' here."

"Indeed." Dasiji looks pained. "But while it's one thing to kill a man in self-defense, once he was down, I could hardly pretend to myself that I don't know how to bandage a wound." He sighs. "Ah well. We will do what we can and hope for the best, as always."

"I woul' no' have you kill him like a kobol', huh?", Noa agrees. "I woul' no' have the kobol' kille'", she adds with evident anger. "I'm real tired of figh'ing mages.", Noa concludes, brushing the fading gold sparkles from herself.

You take Wymund to the Duskwardens for punishment, then stay in Kaer Maga for a little while to attempt to clear the Society's name and see what else this Shadow Lodge is doing in the city.

Anything else before we wrap this up?

Noa tried to get beat up by the guy's guards, and waved the flag of Taldor doing it, but I'm guessing that's not close enough? Not sure how to have gone further, without actually swinging.

If we are here some weeks, can the other side missions be worked on?

Noa did enough to fulfill that mission. Other side missions is what I was implying.

While we're here, res' of you mind helping me find a parti'ular warden? His name is Gahiji. He's likely the only Garundi we'll find. I 'ave news for him from home. Hopefully he listens.

Upon finding Gahiji, Broot implores him to return home,
"Young man you would do well to return to the service of the Ruby Prince. He has an appointment for you in his majesty's Risen Guard. Certainly an honor by any measure."

Diplomacy: 1d20 ⇒ 17

Mortimer replies to Broot. "As do I. I have a feeling its the same message."

Mortimer accompanies Broot in his search.

Mortimer attempts to help Broot convince Gahiji.
"It is a great honor, one few from our homeland receive. You are important enough to the Ruby Prince for him to send multiple messengers. He wishes you to return home."

Assist Broot with Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

I know several of us have missions to contact a certain servant of a Chelish lady. Any idea how to go about that? We've got Perform talent, magical illusions, etc. We could maybe try that route, be a good show, and get invited?

Broot and Mort

Ah, hmm. A temting offer to be sure, but I have fallen out of the graces of the Ruby Prince, and he out of mine. However, I will consider your offer. Thank you.

Kn Local or Diplomacy to find the boy you are looking for.

Noa's Dip is +6, I'll roll it here, but the assignment letter says where he is expected to be.
dip+6: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
No one can resis' her smile! :)

We learned earlier that Gahiji was on duty at the Halflight Path. Having gotten separated from Broot and Mort in the crush of the crowd, Dasiji catches up with the dusky Duskwarden later, and relays the Ruby Prince's request. "I think that he must want you there very badly, since I'm pretty sure that two of my friends had the same message." Diplomacy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Noa is able to find the lad and deliver her message.

To Dasiji, Yes, a third letter! I see that I do matter to the Ruby Prince. I will return to his service.
