A bit of shouting startled Zova as she found herself lying on the ground next to the pits, head spinning. It seemed that someone knocked her down shortly after the pig escaped. One of the men from the table that Zova went by earlier jumped into the arena to help her on her feet; Zova gave thanks and noticed that he was dressed in the garb of a Sable Company marine.
As he departed back to his table, Zova noticed a suspicious bit of shrubbery nearby starting to rustle. At first she thought she found the hiding spot of a pig, but upon closer inspection realized that this particular type of plant is capable of some movement on its own and it emits a loud ear-piercing screech when approached. Given she already had a headache, adding more noise to it wasn't the best of ideas, and she decided to give the plant a wide berth.

With one muddy swine in hand, Varian is tempted to take it directly to the goal. "Where's the fun in that?" teases Radovan as he rushes to a very occupied tenement building to run defense against the opposing team.
Varian lags behind and by the time he's caught up, Radovan's convinced one the other team's defense to join Varian's team. They take a beat to survey the building and find large parts of it destroyed.
Radovan points out another opponant that may be convinced to join as well. Dressed in gladiatorial armor, she appears to be capable and strong. Unfortunately, she seems to be running around confused causing much of the destruction in the tenement. Varian decides to pass.
Just as they are about to make the long hustly back to the goal, Varian's pet imp finally pulls itself out of its sub-dimension. Varian sends the Imp with the squealing pig to drop it into the goal.

Seeing the fighting moving back towards the pits, Zadim takes the opportunity to break away from the pack and try to find something else that could help give them the upper hand in this contest. He heads to where Hakon is, to see if he needs any help.
Finding a new set of shiny armor, Zadim picks it up... and then realizes that it's shiny because it's covered in oil. Well, could come in handy with all that's going on here, he slips into it.
Suddenly a large thug shows up. "Oh, was this yours?" Zadim asks, pointing at the armor. Apparently, it was... because the Thug is very upset and forcibly rips it from Zadim's body. "Well, that's just rude. I have ways of dealing with rude people..." he says, pulling out his shuriken.
After several quick blows from Zadim's poisoned weapons, the thug falls over, twitches once, and then stops moving. Looking at Hakon, they agree that they shouldn't be here when somebody finds the body, so they both turn and run through the maze in opposite directions, unsure where they'll come out.

Additional Info 2:
========================
->
Agreeing with Zadim - discretion is all the more important when you're trying to live up to the people's expectations of Blackjack, even down here - Hakon makes himself scarce and skulks back towards the center of the arena to blend into the melee of tackling and fighting over the terrified pigs. As he prepares to dive back into the chaos, Hakon spies an unexpected sight out of the corner of his view: a sickly child, half-coated in (hopefully) pig's blood, shaking and trying to crawl away from the violence and sport, seemingly unnoticed.
Ignoring the pigs for now, Hakon acts quickly, swooping in to pick up the child's frail frame, his heart dropping a bit at how light the poor boy is. He holds them close, shielding them from debris and the sights and sounds of violence as he races them to the stands, seeing a terrified, wide-eyed woman frantically trying to wave him over to her. Approaching, the child reaches out his thin arms to the woman, and Hakon gently passes the little one back to his mother.
"My son! Oh my dear son! Oh bless you, Gods' bless you, Blackjack. Thank you, thank you!"
Hakon smiles a bit beneath the mask, taking the woman's free hand after she holds her son close to her waist with the other, quietly pressing a piece of gold into her palm such that the crowd is unlikely to be able to spot at a glance. Her eyes widen, but Hakon lets go and flees back to the central arena before she can respond further.

A fellow in unusually priestly robes runs by Hakon, chasing after a pig before getting caught in his own blood-slicked robes and tripping, almost sliding straight into one of the spiked pits before Hakon grabs him and lifts him to his feet. The panicked priest babbles and gasps, and Hakon, up-close, realizes that the priest's robes aren't quite as bloodstained as they looked, but rather actually dyed mostly red. Finally seeing the symbol hanging from the neck, Hakon finally recognizes the garb of a priest of Asmodeus.
Even after all these months in Korvosa, Hakon never quite got used to seeing open worship of Asmodeus.

Hakon begins to ask the priest the most obvious question about why they're here, but the priest screams some garbled warning and points behind Hakon. Hakon spins in place, preparing his daggers as he prepares to defend himself against... what? A vaguely humanoid mass of shadows and spectral bones, like some vengeful phantom. Its target appears to be the priest, but it lunges at Hakon as he stands between them.
Hakon slides backwards slightly and to the side, avoiding the worst of the monster's bull rush and lashing out with Blackjack's magical daggers. A cut cleaves through the shadow and seems to destabilize the creature's form, and it howls and turns right into Hakon's follow-up slash into its half-formed skull. The creature screams, the noise pressing at Hakon's skull with magical force, and he roars out a Skald sonnet to drown out its magic with his own as he sticks both daggers into its center and tears the creature apart.
Hakon pants, recovering, turning around to see the priest having fled during the fight. Feeling oddly lighter, Hakon checks his equipment... did that priest run off with his spare helmet?

Zova continues chasing a pig into a drug den. One of the patrons there is not amused by her intrusion and comes at her with his sword drawn. Zova quickly makes short work of him and picks up the sword and his suit of armor, figuring that the bloody heap on the ground has no further use for either. The armor is light and well-fitting, so Zova puts it on thinking it may help with any fights she may get herself into. What she didn't realize, however, is that the armor is enchanted to speak, and it hurls some insults at a nearby group of nobles.
Zova quickly leaves the establishment before she draws even more unwanted attention and returns to a plaza area where she runs into Hakon. The shifter draws two berries imbued with Sarenrae's healing powers and splits them with Hakon as the two of them have a short breather to recover before moving on.

Hour of Incitation
After safely depositing one of the requisite pig in the pit, Varian finds his opponants charging madly to at him. I guess they would prefer not score points in this "game." Well...to hell with them!
Instead of doding out of the way, Varian lets loose powerful vampiric energies that have gotten sharper in this corrupted city. One of his rough opponants falls in the mud while the others flee to safety. None of them are mad enough to face this kind of power. Even Radovan has kept to the periphery.
Feeling his power, with only a little bit of nausea, Varian flies into the nearby tenements where Zadim has cornered one more of the noisy swine. Varian is able to snatch the pig and gets ready to return it for yet another point.

Seeing the scuffle moving into the open Plaza, Zadim heads that way, intent on finding a greasy pig to capture.
He throws himself into the fight, finally coming away holding somebody else's large Scythe. "That's no weapon for a melee like this! Much too clumsy for close combat!" he mutters, as he throws it to one side.
He also finds a suit of armor that somebody had doffed during the melee. Thinking that it might at least help him from these gouts of flame that keep burning the armor off of him, he stores it somewhere for now.
At last, his prize! Zadim scoops up the slimey pig in his arms, poised to run back to the pits with it to claim his point!
As the flames once again burn Zadim's armor clean off him, he quickly replaces it with the Gray Maiden armor he'd found earlier. Although not really his style, it will at least shield him from damage.

Not long after entering the establishment, Hakon senses an eerie aura emanating from a strangely-dressed figure in an... unnaturally dark corner of the den, even one as seedy as this. Nobody sits by them, nor near them. And the more Hakon looks, it seems as though the darkness around the individual somehow grew darker even as they remained perfectly in view.
They wore a hat, but Hakon could not make out their face underneath... or could they? There was something there, something shifting, something...
The figure turns their head up, and locks eyes with Hakon. For a moment, Hakon was neither Blackjack nor Guardsman, but was back as a younger skald, locking eyes with... Girt Bearwearer?
Hakon froze. The face of the man who murdered his huscarl, his friends, his brother stared back at him. It should have evoked fury. Righteous, blinding, vengeful fury.
Instead, Hakon froze in terror.
The figure stood up, approaching. The den seemed to disappear around them, like nothing existed but the figure and Hakon. It grew close, lifting a withered arm at Hakon, and only when the thing was nearly touching him did Hakon fight through the paralyzing fear, shouting out a war-call and swinging out with both of his magical daggers to slice off the arm of the creature.
The creature - not Girt, something wearing his face like a cloak of fear - screeches and vanishes into thin-air, or perhaps returned to its proper world.
But the fear lingered, both upon Hakon and the witnesses to the terrifying spectacle before them.

To Defeat: Combat 11 OR Perception Survival 6
If undefeated, shuffle this monster into a random location.
If defeated by a combat check, suffer 1d4 Combat damage.
Zova spots one of the badgers climbing out of the pits. Recognizing the danger this could cause, she rushes over and coaxes it safely outside of the arena. The poor thing doesn't deserve to be trapped inside a giant hole, and she senses its relief once it is able to breathe fresh air once more.
On her way back, one of the greased pigs that previously escaped the arena also runs into Zova. Unlike the badger, she knows that if this pig is released it will be quickly captured and killed anyway for meat, so she might as well help her team win the game with it if it will die regardless. She puts it into the pit the badger escaped from, as it will at least not die immediately there due to there no longer being an angry animal present to attack it.
Afterwards, Zova spots Zadim at the plaza. She heads there, with her arrival providing enough interruption for one of the so-called emperor's lackeys to quickly swipe a nearby scroll. With the help of one of the Nobles that she befriended, she tries to calm down down the previous owner of the scroll and promises that she will reclaim and return it. However, she is unsuccessful in doing so.

Hour of Asmodeus's Tyranny
->
Squealing Pig in hand, Varian spies the Shinglesnipes (the opposing team), taking position around his pit in order to block the point. Varian takes note of their numbers...many...and their formation...sloppy. Too Many. None are guarding their pit.
"Radovan, get ready to block their pig pit. It's time to finish this game!"
At that, Varian makes a show of running toward the pit, pig squealing all of the way. Plotting the probable trajectory of the other team's toughs, he launches himself to the side at just the right time. In response the Shinglesnipe thugs slam into each other. Varian dances backwards holding the pig at arms length in front of him, taunting his opponanents. They trip over themselves in a clumsy attempt to snatch the pig. Varian jigs to the right hopping on top of an over turned cart, then, flips over a the last defender, then neatly deposits the pig in it's pit with its two brethern.
The crowd roars in approval. And throws a scroll at his feet. Grateful, he snatches up the scroll. And boasts, "Is that all you've got? Throw me something more substantial and I'll give you a show!"
A grave fellow with a slight curl in his lips throws Varian a workable shield. "That will have to do!" Varian turns to see the mass of Shinglesnipes scattered with some attempting to reinforce their goal...in vain, as Radovan has set a number of obstacles in their path. Someone tries to though a vial Varian's way but it breaks agaisnt his cloak harmlessly.
Varian cracks his knuckles readying spell and his wand, approaching the opposing team's pit. Lightning, and Frost crackling through his fingers, force growing within the wand. Normally these things require finesse to aim, bu Varian's target is clear.
In an instant power magic force launch at the crudely dug pit destroying any semblance of it's previous form. It no longer can hold much of anything, let alone scared pigs.
Radovan looks up addressing the Emporer, "I guess that means we win."
The emporer lurches to his feet and bellows, “Two out of three!” only to be told by a nervous thug that they’ve run out of pigs. For a moment, the emperor seems ready to strap the thug into the Tall Knife. An instant later he regains his composure, "A curious win, to be sure. Congratulations." The crowd erupts in support!
The emporer proclaims this new team the winners with the accompanying invitation to his balcony.
Concerned that there is something else at play, Varian fades back into the Tenements.

Hour of the Paladin
It appears this Emperor is not so anxious to meet us.
As Zadim tustles with the Emperor's thugs, Varian takes advantage of the confusion and rushes the stairs. He's greeted by a poisonous miasma. Varian wraps his shield cloak around his face and persists.
As he's about to reach the balcony, Varian discovers the source of the foul miasma. A pet demonling regarding the wizard as less than a threat. Varian quickly peruses his scrolls, and pulls a smokey one out. The demonling begins to approach, not wishing to prolong the kill. Varian quickly scans the cursed document, then drops the ground with chalk in hand sketching a small but precise glyph, then shuffles backward.
The demonling registers surprise as it loses the ability to move of its own volition and in fact finds itself being drawn to the glyph. As its form touches the glyph, it's material form dissapates into nothing...or at least nothing that can be detected on this plane.
Staring at this display from his perch on the balcony is none other than Pilts Swastel, who strikes a more pathetic figure this close up. His royal costume, threadbare. And his face marked by the blood veil. Seeing Varian's power, a flash of fear flits across his face. He gathers himself and a calm almost hypnotic voice leaves his lips, "You have proven yourself! And I am pleased to welcome you to this court."
For a moment, Varian is almost taken in, but he knows a thing or two about royalty. Vagrant or not, they cannot be trusted! Varian approaches as if to offer himself to this supposed king, lulling the man into a false sense of superiority. As he get's close, Varian lunges grabbing a hold of Pilts tight...draining the life away from him.
Pilts shrieks pulling away with all his might. While the blood fades from his face, he manages to take a drink of a handy elixir and is able to slide his hand free with quickness and grace. Having escaped Varian's death grip, he flips supernaturally off of the balcony landing in the streets below. Quickly he's lost in the crowd.
Varian grits his teeth, and casts yet another spell...this time a wave of nausea hits him. But he is now floating a foot above ground. Varian takes to the skies, looking this way and that. He thought he saw Pilts' figure alone in the plaza, but it was just some ragged priest. He then flies to a den of iniquity and sure enough spots the emporer slipping in.
Zova and Zadim run out of the Emporer's "throne room," finding Radovan with a smug expression. "He's all yours, Zadim. Make it count."

Notes for Zova:
Notes for Zadim:
Zova continues to rush towards the Tenement to cut off a potential escape path for the slippery Pilts Swastel.
Zadim looks around the Den, and then at Pilts. "Alright Pilts, time to finish this" he growls, before flinging a Shuriken at him.
After a rousing game of Blood Pig, you ended the reign of Emperor Pilts. His crowd dispersed, grateful for the loss of their insane tyrant.
“Hi. I’m Laori Vaus of the Brotherhood of Bones,” says the elf. “Wasn’t it fun to be covered in pig blood? And weren’t those squeals delightful?”
You assure her that it and they were not.
“To each your own. Anyway, it was the only way I could get to Salvator Scream.”
The artist is chained to an easel, busily painting in the Emperor’s theater, Exemplary Execrables. His recent work is violent, colorful, and uninspired.
“Do you have any older works?” asks Laori.
Salvator produces three paintings, and they are indeed more inspired. One depicts a blue dragon towering over a castle while its citizens are impaled. This makes Laori’s day.
“Such a dreary life,” Scream says. “Before we escape Old Korvosa, we need to rescue the seneschal. Only he can depose the queen.”
Reward
Each character gets a hero point. A character gets the Loot ally Salvator Scream. Rally the supporter Laori Vaus.

Hero Point: Card Feat (either Blessing or Weapon, depending which I add to the deck)
At the artist Salvator Scream’s suggestion, you ascend to a palace at the highest point of Old Korvosa. It’s a breathtaking structure built in the Vudrani style, with windows that rise to tapered points, minarets, and domes. Statues of elephants and six-armed deities keep watch outside the gates.
Your host, a resplendent merchant lord named Glorio Arkona, hears how your efforts have left the Arkonas as the only real power on the quarantined island. You see a satisfied glimmer of appreciation in his eye.
“You have done well for my people,” he says. “And now there is the matter of the queen. Obviously, as a citizen of some renown, I must serve the Crown with all my loyalty. Betrayal is not in the Arkona blood, you see. But there are ways to unseat even the most tyrannical of monarchs.”
“The seneschal Neolandus Kalepopolis has gone missing,” you say. “We have reason to believe you know where he is. Perhaps also his ally, Vencarlo Orisini.”
“Ah,” says Glorio. “Yes, you are most direct. It is true that the seneschal is the only person who can legally depose a Korvosan monarch. And we are all about the law here, which is why we have quite legally made him our guest in the Vivified Labyrinth below our castle. Returning him to you is... a trifle complicated. While I cannot enter the labyrinth, I can tell you how to enter it. Simply rotate the elephant statue in the garden and you can come and go as you please.”
That was all you needed to hear. For Salvator Scream may not have known where the Arkonas kept the seneschal and the sword master, but he did know the Arkonas were all replaced by rakshasas, animal-headed demons with malice in their hearts. Now, with weapons drawn, you’ll make it clear that you know as well.
