[PCO 2021] GM Silbeg's PFS2 2-06 The Crashing Wave (Inactive)

Game Master Silbeg

On an island off the coast of Jalmeray, the Pathfinders are called to action! The Society's friends at the Monastery of Unbreaking Waves are faced with a horde of sea devils seeking to level their recently-rebuilt temple and claim it for themselves. The Pathfinders arrive just as the invasion reaches a crescendo and must fight for their lives if they hope to protect themselves and their allies!

Sylvia Dyspell straightens her long black hair before nervously adjusting her glasses.

"Hello fellow Pathfinders, I can hardly believe I've been a field agent for almost two years now... I used to work in the Mortuary in the Grand Lodge, after defending my station during the waking of the Whispering Tyrant I got promoted to field agent. It's been exciting, but scary too."

Sylvia is unarmored and has a large reinforced tome attached to her belt via several brass rings along with numerous other magical trinkets and supplies.

A smartly-dressed, middle-aged elf, clad in studded leather armor arrives at the temple. He fishes out a flask and a brandy snifter and pours himself a drink. He takes a sip and surveys the group. With an air of superiority that is almost certainly undeserved, he introduces himself. "Yes, yes. Greetings. I'm Dr. Lazarus. You may call me Lazarus or simply Doctor." He nods to Sylvia, impressed with the tome she carries.

Dr. Lazarus pauses momentarily before continuing. "I'm a renowned forensics professor at the University of Osirion. You may have heard of me." After getting blank stares, he continues, "While somewhat skilled at healing..." he pats his healer's toolkit on his bandolier, "... I joined the Pathfinders to hone my investigative skills. That's how I make my living, you see. Relying on my books, uncovering clues, solving mysteries."

When he steps back, those nearby can see an elven curve blade sheathed over his shoulder, with a hammer strapped at his waist. The well-built scholar adds, "I can handle myself in battle if needed." He takes another sip of brandy as he meets the others.

The small goblin in leather armor enjoys some good time on the boat, perhaps because he fears a bit what may happen. After all they are going to Jalmeray, an island. An island is circled by water...

For my part, I've simply a passion... I hope you have nothing against fire? I love it.

A simple male goblin in a resume...

The keleshite woman is dressed as the people of her country. Her scimitar makes her look as a warrior but her holy symbol of Sarenrae calls back to more prayer and mystical virtue.

My name's Kyra and I does hope that the power of the goddess will help us in the accomplishment of our task on the island.

Then she stays quiet as she knows that they will need all their forces to triumph upon the evil forces they will have to face. Because they won't have been sent there otherwise.

Spell list modified: Cantrip Divine lance, Disrupt undead, Guidance, Stabilize; 1st lvl: Bless, Sanctuary, Command; 2nd lvl: Spiritual weapon (2x), Sound burst; 3rd lvl: Heal (4x), Sound burst heightened +1 (2x)

A largely built half-elf wearing full plate mail walks toward the group with no regard for who hears his approach. He wields a longsword which currently resides at his hip and a large shield which he seemingly never puts down. The shield has a brightly emblazoned emblem of Iomedae on its face.

He introduces himself as Leharas, Champion of Iomedae. Otherwise he speaks quite little. When he does speak up references are often made regarding "The One True God" and will often refer to others as "Non-believers."

Almost every time he speaks is in reference to allowing the unworthy a chance for redemption.

You are called to assemble on the deck of he Flawless Diamond, off the shores of Wavebreak Haven.

“I said keep it steady!” Captain Thernalore Vamys barks at the undine workers on the shore as the Flawless Diamond begins to drift. Wavebreak Haven is small, with only a few dozen buildings visible further inland. The dockworkers panic as the ship's hull collides with the pier, battered bushels of palm fronds failing to completely cushion the impact.

“Now look,” Thernalore leans over the rail and inhales deeply, ready to chastise the inexperienced crew, before she sees a familiar face approaching the ship. “The Society will reimburse you for any damages, captain.”

The authority of Venture-Captain Rashmivati Melipdra puts an end to the turmoil. The middle-aged Vudrani carries herself with the upright posture of a martial artist as she moves to meet the ship, though she does have trouble finding purchase with her cane as she crosses the sand. Meleeka Sanvara, a muscular monk in tan robes, runs ahead of the venture-captain with a gangplank.

“Greetings, Pathfinders. As you can see, we are in dire need of experienced volunteers. But I'm getting ahead of myself.” Meleeka helps the venture-captain onto the deck of the ship before stepping aside to allow several dockhands room to begin unloading cargo. “The Society has enjoyed a mutually beneficial relationship with the Monastery of Unbreaking Waves since—”

A scream from the shore interrupts the briefing. A porter claws at the blood-soaked sand as he is dragged into the sea with a trident in his chest. A battle cry drowns out the victim's screams as several scaly raiders emerge from the bloody brine, charging with teeth and spears. The shore erupts into chaos, and the Venture-Captain calls out over the din of battle to establish order..

“Pathfinders,” Melipdra turns and gestures toward the carnage. “Protect the porters! Meleeka and I will lead the monks in defense of the ship and stop the sea devils from reaching the settlement! Hurry!”

reminder that you each have a hero point. In discussion thread, please let me know if you have any glyphs or other ways to get extra hero points. I will get the map up tomorrow morning at the latest.

Please place your tokens in the dotted box on slide #2 of the google slides.

Still need Leharas to fill out the macros sheet
Kyra please set up your tag line and profile!

AMBUSH at the briefing!!!
Kyra, Dr. Lazarus, Sylvia is/are up.

Quick note: please feel free to look into the turn tracker, this is spoilered just to reduce space. Also, the more you can give me on your profile for potential botting instructions, the easier it will be for all. Remember, we have only a little more than a month to complete this scenario, which can be fast for a PBP

When the sea creatures appear, Dr. Lazarus surveys the situation. He attempts to strategize an attack against the sea devil to the north.
Devise a Stratagem: 1d20 ⇒ 9 (Roll is used for subsequent attack roll.)

Seeing a possible opening, Lazarus draws his hammer and hurls it at the purple sea devil.

+1 Striking Returning Grabthar's Hammer (w/ Stratagem) + Range Penalty: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 - 4 = 20
Damage + Strategic Strike: 2d6 + 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3) + (5, 4) + 3 = 18

Actions: ◆ Interact (draw weapon), ◆ Devise Stratagem, ◆ Strike

The clerical woman isn't long to react when the creatures arrive.

Devils, you will suffer the fire from the good!

Fire ray towards the purple: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16

Fire ray towards the purple, hero point reroll: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28

Damage: 6d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4) = 23

Then she draws her scimitar.

Please always call out the token color to identify. If we have anyone with color blindness, please let me know, and I will start using other ways to designate which token is which. Thank you!

Dr. Lazarus throws his hammer at purple, striking the creature!

Kyra follows up by casting a fire ray focus spell at him, critically striking! The sea creature collapses, smoldering, and quite dead.

Sylvia is up!

Kyra pregen has 48 HP.

As purple is down and I can't post until tomorrow at same hour I post my action. I hope it's not a problem.

The goblin says enthusiastically seeing the result of Kyra's spell:

Yes, fire, fire, more fire!

And he casts another spell fire upon Red and Black.

Fireball: 6d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 2, 5, 4, 5, 1) + 4 = 27 Black takes also +3 for Blood magic if it failed his save

Reflex DC 21.

Okh is not up right now. Please watch the turn tracker and my posts to see who is up.

Sylvia takes a moment to try and recall knowledge about the critters.

Arcana +12, Nature +8, Occultism +11, Religion +8, Society +10. Sylvia has Dubious Knowledge.

She then casts Gudiance on Dr. Lazarus and Leharas.

Okh cannot target red and black. They are not quite within a single 20' Burst. I have put down a template to show this. It could get black and teal. I will hold resolving the fireball until I have a decision, either from Okh, or from a party consensus.

Where oh where will the fireball go?!!!
Okh is/are up.

Well see post Thursday, 12:54 pm. above and I've set the template.

Teal save DC21: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Black save DC21: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29

Both of the Sea Devils manage to avoid the worst of the damage.

Black moves forward into the water, then swims forward. It then throws its trident at Okh. The trident hits the side of the boat, just missing Okh.
trident (w/ cover): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20

Then teal moves forward as well.

The charge of the Sea Devil Brigade!!!
Laheras is/are up.

Leharas smiles at the Sea Devil moving toward him. This beast must be looking for a way out of this realm.

He raises his shield and cautiously approaches the creature (Teal) that on the dock. You never can be too careful with these treacherous creatures. Leharas then swings his sword and strikes at the beast. Be gone, DEVIL!

+1 Striking Longsword : 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 222d8 + 4 ⇒ (5, 4) + 4 = 13

Raise Shield, Stride, Strike. All done.

What are the terrain issues like? Gangplank? How deep is the water etc?

What are the terrain issues like? Gangplank? How deep is the water etc?

The gangplank goes down 5' from the ship to the dock. We'll call that a trained balance check

The dock is level, just above the water. The depth of the water varies, in a gradiation, dropping off about 5' per 15' from the shore. It will be an untrained check to climb up out of the water onto the dock[/ooc]

Leharas, can you please put your stat block on your profile? This will slow down the game. Again, a template is here

Since I didn't post this earlier, we'll say Laheras made his check.

Laheras strikes the sea devil on the dock!

The red sea devil swims up to the dock, and climbs up.
athletics DC10: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

He then tries to bite Laheras, but misses.
bite vs FFAC 25: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20

They should have known better!!!
Kyra, Dr. Lazerus, Sylvia, Okh is/are up.

Studying the battlefield, Dr. Lazarus considers his attack options.

Devise a Stratagem vs. Red: 1d20 ⇒ 8 (Roll is used for subsequent attack roll.)

Feeling a surge of magical guidance, the Doctor nods to Sylvia in appreciation, takes aim and flings his hammer at the nearest red sea devil.

+1 Striking Returning Grabthar's Hammer (w/ Stratagem) + Guidance vs. Red: 1d20 + 15 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 24
Damage + Strategic Strike: 2d6 + 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 6) + (6, 2) + 3 = 22

Then, as he sees Kyra drawing her scimitar, Lazarus decides to pay it forward, casting Guidance on our cleric. "Aim well, my dear lady."
Kyra has a +1 on an action of her choosing during her upcoming turn.

Actions: ◆ Devise Stratagem, ◆ Strike, ◆ Guidance

Sylvia waves her hands together as she conjures forth a flaming sphere on the teal monstrosity.

Teal fire damage: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 2) = 7
Basic reflex DC 20 (+ Success negates)

Sylvia then takes a step closer to the edge of the ship.

The cleric casts a spell towards the Black one.

Divine Lance, Guidance: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 = 23

Damage, Good: 3d4 + 4 ⇒ (3, 2, 4) + 4 = 13

Then she casts Guidance upon Okh.

The goblin continues to cast spells as well. First another fire one against he Black one.

Elemental toss: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 1 = 21

Damage:3d8 + 4 ⇒ (3, 5, 3) + 4 = 15

Then he casts an electric spell upon both Red and Black.

Electric arc:3d4 + 4 ⇒ (2, 1, 1) + 4 = 8

reflex DC 21

Dr Lazarus plans his attack, and hits hard.

Sylvia casts her spell, a ball of fire appearing over teal, who doesn't avoid it.
reflex DC20: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15

Kyra learns that these creatures are indeed evil!

Okh's fire hits black, and then his lightning is cast! However, both appear to avoid some of the damage.
black DC21: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24
red DC21: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28

Black retrieves his trident (which has a rope attached), and throws it at Okh!
barbed trident vs AC20: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

He then ducks under water.

Teal then tries to bite and claw Laheras.
bite vs AC25: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18
claw vs AC25: 1d20 + 11 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 4 = 18
claw vs AC25: 1d20 + 11 - 8 ⇒ (5) + 11 - 8 = 8

Swing and a miss and a miss and a miss

This is your last chance for Redemption, Fiend! Surrender now or I will strike you down where you stand!

The creature answers by biting and clawing ineffectively at Leharas's armor.

Very well. You have been warned.

+1 Striking Longsword: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 252d8 + 4 ⇒ (4, 2) + 4 = 10

Strike at Teal. Whether it is still up or not will determine my next action. I will raise my shield regardless. If Teal is still up, I Step out of Flanking. If Teal drops, I strike again at Red.

With his strike, Leharas drops teal.

Please go ahead and roll your attack against red, Leharas

Perfect! I had a feeling that might take him out.

Leharas looks down at the fallen Sea Devil in disgust. You made your choice, beast!

Leharas turns around, hoisting his shield I the air to focus his attention on the Sea Devil that tried attaching him from behind. You shall share the fate of your companion.

+1 Striking Longsword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 272d8 + 4 ⇒ (3, 1) + 4 = 8

Full turn is Strike Teal, Raise Shield, Strike Red

Leharas kills the second sea devil with his second attack!

And then there was one

The cleric casts another spell towards the devil, even underwater.

Divine lance: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29

Damage: 3d4 + 4 ⇒ (2, 3, 4) + 4 = 13

The goblin casts also a spell in the direction of the sea devil.

Ray of frost:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25

Damage:2d4 + 4 ⇒ (4, 1) + 4 = 9

Does underwater mean concealed?

Dr. Lazarus targets the remaining sea devil beneath the water.
DC 5 Flat Check for Concealed: 1d20 ⇒ 10

After targeting the sea devil, Dr. Lazarus calculates the wind speed velocity of an african swallow and forms an attack strategy.
Devise a Stratagem: 1d20 ⇒ 18 (Roll is used for subsequent attack roll.)

Using the wind current to his advantage, he hurls his hammer in the direction of the sea creature.

+1 Striking Returning Grabthar's Hammer (w/ Stratagem): 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (18) + 15 = 33
Damage + Strategic Strike: 2d6 + 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (2, 4) + (2, 2) + 3 = 13

Note: If the Concealed Flat Check isn't necessary, please use the first d20 roll (a 10) for the Devise roll. Which would make the attack roll a 25, instead of 33.

Sylvia rolls her firey boll over to the other monstrosity on the deck.

fire: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 3) = 11
Basic Reflex 20, success negates.

Sylvia then fires an electric arc against both monsters.

electric damage for both: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (4, 2) + 4 = 10
Basic Reflex DC 20

Aquatic Combat Rules

Kyra's bold of divine energy hits the sea devil, finishing him off.

Meanwhile, Maleeka finishes off the last of her opponents with a fiery punch! (See slide #3 for Malipdra and Maleeka) Several Vudrani
monks and other inhabitants arrive soon after, including Melipdra and Rirzik (an undine gnome). They report that the remaining sea devils have been defeated and the settlement is safe.

Venture-Captain Malipdra thanks you, and awards you two lesser elixirs of life. Additionally, one of the dockhands thanks you profusely, offering you his scrimshaw whistle made of dragon turtle ivory.

“Only one? You’ve been bested, Meleeka,” Melipdra finishes dressing a wounded porter while gesturing toward her assistant. The martial artist drops the smoldering remains of a sea devil’s torso into the sand and returns to the pier to rummage through the scattered crates. The venture-captain continues the briefing. “Like I was saying, the Society has enjoyed a mutually beneficial relationship with the Monastery of Unbreaking Waves. The local undines have made great strides in rebuilding the monastery since we defeated the undead responsible for the school’s disappearance.

Maleeka supplies four potions of water breathing to each of you. She also unpacks a pair of swim fins for each of you. "Please make use of these, but also please return what you haven't used when you return."

See slide #4 for under water combat rules

"But the tradition now faces a new threat. An incursion of sea devils is attacking the monastery. You might know them as sahuagin. I was told that the monastery needed our help, but to see a shiver of this size make it to Wavebreak Haven means the situation must already be dire. We must come to the aid of the Unbreaking Waves, now!”[/b] She gestures to the surf, where a short figure is soothing several half-horse, halffish creatures. “Rirzik here will escort you by hippocampus to the underwater monastery, where Grandmaster Remendi is organizing the resistance.”

Rirzik steps forward, smoothing his turquoise eyebrows, and takes a deep breath, “I have enough hippocampi for everyone. They were a little spooked by all the noise, but I calmed them down.”

“And the Society came through with the supplies!” Meleeka interrupts, hauling several large bags across her shoulders as she rejoins the group on the beach. “There are enough potions and fins for each of you. I wish I could join you, but as my fire burns brighter on dry land, I think I’ll be better off seeing to the defense up here.”

Melipdra rests a hand on her agent’s shoulder in reassurance. “There is more to a battlefield than the front lines. Support our allies on the shore however you can, and remember to not lose sight of the bigger picture. Helping our allies means helping to preserve a still largely undocumented tradition. We must not let the Unbreaking Waves become another casualty of this senseless violence.”

Sylvia adjusts her glasses "I... I don't think I've ever been on a mission underwater before" she comments with some anxiety. "I guess there's a first time for everything though."

Leharas looks down at the heavy suit of metal downing his body. After a moment of quiet contemplation he looks up at the Venture-Captain.

This will certainly be interesting. I usually sink to the bottom of water. Regardless, I will do my part and put and end to these devils' insurrection.

Impressed with his companions' effectiveness, Dr. Lazarus nods with approval. "Well done, well done, lads and lasses." He looks around to see if anyone is injured. Seeing the party remarkably healthy, he offers to help Melipdra tend to the wounded porters.

After the healing is complete, Lazarus cries out, "Brandy all around!" He fishes out a flask from his pack, and pours a round in several mugs for whoever is interested. He then pours some for himself into a proper brandy snifter, and savors a long sip.

When Maleeka speaks of the sea devils attacking the monastery, the Doctor pulls out a writing pad and takes careful notes. Lazarus asks, "Yes, yes ... do you expect them to be similar to the two types of creatures we just fought?"

Lazarus Pursues a Lead on the sahuagin. He can have 2 leads. If we believe we'll see more of the Impalers and Scouts, he'll Pursue a Lead on each.

Lazarus graciously accepts the water-breathing potions and fins and mutters, "All that underwater training may finally pay off...." He then follows the group to the hippocampi.

Who wants to claim the Lesser Elixirs of Life? Maybe our Wizard and Sorcerer?

Sure, Sylvia will take one

Well I suppose I can forget to play with fire once underwater or do you have a way for such an issue?

The clerical woman takes her new equipment and prepares herself to go underwater.

"Sorry, Okh. If I knew how to do that, I would be joining you," replies Maleeka.

In reply to Dr. Lazerus, Remendi says, “Our intelligence has confirmed sea devils and sharks. But the exact details of other threats are difficult to confirm given the variety of sea life in the region and unpredictable cunning of our enemy.”

"To help you, we'll be feeding you information as soon as we receive it. As reports come in, Zulfibha will dispatch animal messengers to your location to keep you informed. Once we eliminate the sea devil threat, I will be more than happy to share our order’s secrets."

The cleric is ready to go.

The goblin does himself a reason and thinks about the spells that he will still be able to use.

Sylvia provides herself with numerous magics.

Wand of Mage Armor(1), Longstrider(2), and False Life(2)

Going to keep us moving, but feel free to post any preparations

The sea is calm as the hippocampi diligently follow Rirzik’s lead, diving beneath the waves. The temperate waters are clear enough to see the monastery only minutes after leaving the shore, a sprawling complex of over two dozen buildings flanking a precipitous bubbling trench. Impressive gardens of colorful seaweed and coral dot the landscape in labyrinthine paths. The pristine trails are ominously deserted. All signs of life are concentrated around the tallest structure at the center of the monastery—the great hall, carved out of twisting stone accented with glowing sapphires. About fifteen minutes after leaving the shore, the hippocampi reach the doorway, where a trio of undine monks stand watch. The youngest swims before Rirzik’s hippocampus and holds out his hand. The mount bucks as the guard refuses to step aside.

"Friends, these are the Pathfinders that are coming to help." says Rirzik. The attitude of the guards immediately and visibly shifts as they bow and gesture you to the central building. Rirzik departs with the hippocampi, while the guard leads you past the foyer of the school to meet with Grandmaster Remendi and her wife Zulfibha, both being human undines.

A sprawling elliptical arena has been converted into a makeshift war room. A swirling roil of bubbles and currents fills the center of the fighting pit, flanked by a pair of undines meditating on its churning eddies. Within the confines of the sphere float numerous colorful coral figurines in a three-dimensional map of the monastery and surrounding areas. A school of tiny, colorful fish swims into the room. The figurines on the map begin to move as the fish whisper to the undines, several of the coral lumps are forcefully ejected into a half-filled net near the ceiling.

“Pathfinders,” a stern voice calls out from the other side of the arena. Grandmaster Remendi takes only a moment to look away from her work before returning to watching the sphere. “I wish I could properly receive you, but I’m afraid we don’t have any time to spare. Excuse me.”

Remendi turns to Zulfibha with a raised brow, muttering to her wife while focusing on the movement of the coral. In response, Zulfibha raises a religious symbol of Gozreh, and a small cod zips to her shoulder. After a few short words, the fish darts out of the room. Remendi turns to an anxious merfolk on the other side of the arena. “And you can send the supplies to Afmari!”

“Excuse me,” Remendi says as the merfolk glides out of the arena. “I’ll try to make this brief. The sea devils are beginning to converge. We’ve been able to hold them off on the open waters, but our forces are stretched too thin to handle concerns away from the front lines. We need an elite team capable of responding quickly as the silt clears. Your performance at Wavebreak Haven has proven your skills.” A cuttlefish speeds past and whispers a message directly to Remendi, breaking her train of thought as she pounds her desk with a clenched fist.

“I’ve received your first mission. Rirzik will guide you and we will keep in contact. Please, for the sake of our school and our students, help us defend the Unbreaking Waves!”

Questions?

Sylvia shakes her head "Sounds like haste is important, let us make our way with Rirzik."

As he doesn't know what to ask, the goblin follows the lead to the mission.

Without making an expression to give away his feelings, Leharas looks around and is taken aback by what he is experiencing. The sheer beauty of his surroundings is enough to make him want to forget his duty and explore the depths all day. His discipline kicks back in before too long as he is snapped back to reality.

Yes, we must defend your people. Please lead the way. Let us make haste!

Remendi directs you to a field hospital set into a series of canverns in a nearby reef. "“Someone has disrupted the magic keeping our central field hospital from flooding. Investigate the disturbance and fix the wards. Do not let any blood spill into the sea.”

Remendi hands Sylvia a magical pearl containing magic to repair the ward. Rirzik explains that the field hospital is located in a series of old eel caves, kept dry with magic to minimize the complications of underwater surgery and make it more difficult for oceanic predators to enter. The hospital also houses non–water-breathing allies from shore who are put at risk by the failing wards.

Rirzik leads the way down a steep crag toward a shimmering reef. Blood red coral grows on the side of an underwater ridge spotted with cave entrances. A large, magical air bubble forming a film around the largest opening. Past the bubble’s film, a tunnel strung with bioluminescent algae stretches into a series of caves, and though the air is breathable, water streams in from several points, forming a wet layer on the ground. Injured monks and rescued sailors lie in makeshift cots throughout the ward. Supplies are strewn across the floor. Three exhausted medics run from patient to patient, taking readings and performing triage.

Odru greets you. She explains that the coral that anchors the air bubble magic has begun to bleach, and she suspects foul play from one of the other medics. She explains that you have five main activities here.

a. Investigate the hospital *
b. Repair the wards
c. Question Ordu (female undine elf surgeon) *
d. Question Sythi (male elf nurse) *
e. Question Rahla (female undine half-elf pharmacist) *

Each character should pick on of these activities, and I will address each person in turn. Please move your tokens to the location you are investigating.
* Dr Lazerus may choose to pursue a lead on any of these.
