Doug's Enmity Cycle (Inactive)

Game Master Doug Hahn

"Maybe we ask around town for someone known by this FF?" Eleanor grabs her staff and slowlt makes her way through town speaking with as many of the locals as she can, looking for a bit of direction.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

In the small office atop the raised platform is a toppled cabinet, inside of which is an ebony and silver music box with a winding key. Attached to this music box by a string is a note:

Note wrote:

“Dhia, I hope you find this to your liking. It reminds me of you. Your Friend, FF.”

Barker wind the music box and then checks if the key matches to the head that they are carrying.

"Hmm, if that does not work, we should ask around for that FF"

DIplomacy: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

Barker hears about Fingiliam Fenferen, a gnomish crafter who loves music and mechanics. Her workshop is only a few blocks away, on the same street. So, you end up turning back around and heading back.

An elegant wooden sign reads “Fingiliam’s Fancies” outside the door of this simple building. Inside, tinkling music plays softly from several places within the shop. The area near the door has shelves along two walls and a glass display case along the third, and a doorway leads to another room. The shelves are lined with small music boxes, some simple in design, others ornate works of art with intricate inlays, glass coverings, tiny bellows, fine strings, or small mechanical figures within. Some of these boxes are open to reveal the complex inner mechanisms. Next to the display case is a low wooden counter covered with a black cloth on which sit tiny gears, bells, screws, and springs. A gnome woman with a shock of purple hair looks up from the counter where she’d been carefully working, her eyes magnified by the series of lenses on her goggles. “Can I help you?” she asks.

Barker moves a bit closer

"My name is Barker, this lovely plum is Eleanor, and that is Zhrys and Zephrena. We are looking for a famous poet who gone missing, Valls. As part of our investigation took us to Tinkerer Dhia, but they were not home ... However we did found a music box and a card, can you tell us something about it?"

Diplomacy if needed: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

Zeph is instantly amazed at the gnome’s store. She loves the tiny clear music boxes, she points excitedly to Rhys and whispers loudly It shows the inner workings!

The gnome gently takes the box and turns it over in her hands, carefully examining it before popping the top open. She slides open a compartment on the underside, pulls out a key, then winds the box. She flips a switch, and the box begins playing. Fingiliam smiles at the sound. “Yes, I made this for Dhia. Do you know them?”

Eleanor looks to the others as her memory is fuzzy. "Were they at the poetry reading?"

They have done projects with poets in the past. She looks worried. Is something wrong?

"We never meet Dhia, we are looking for Valls and we got to believe that Dhia might now something about Valls missing. I can be that our lost poet whose name starts with V got kidnapped and we would like to find who and why did it. We got into a possessions of this clockwork head that every now and then recites us poetry relevant in some way to its creation." Explains Barker

"The lead that we were following related to people who could have done that, we found a letter saying: about 'capturing the tinkerer as well', and we believe that Dhia was that tinkerer."

Perc +10 to sense motive on the gnome hearing the knews

Was?

She grows very concerned and immediately asks who you are again and what you're going to do about her missing friend. Once she calms down a bit, she explains that she made the box for Dhia after one of their many coffee discussions in recent weeks. Dhia was curious about other methods for incorporating music into clockwork creatures, so Fingiliam thought to provide a sample music box that Dhia could study. The gnome doesn’t make clockwork creatures, although she understands how to do so. [b[]“More trouble than they’re worth, in my opinion,”[/b] she says.

possessions of this clockwork head

Let me look at that head!

Fingiliam places the head on the table. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" it asks in a mechanical voice as she pops off the top of its skull.

“Trying to help you. Now be quiet, you chatterbox!” she admonishes. She tinkers for some minutes. The gnome’s long eyebrows suddenly arch dramatically. “Dhia, you clever, clever human!” she says. Without taking her eyes off the device, she raises a hand to forestall any questions. “Hiding away a redundant recording device beneath the capture converter, eh? Smart,” she mutters. She pries open a panel in the back, fiddles with a few gears and springs with her tools, then closes it again. “All right,” she says to the mechanical head, tapping it on the nose gently with her finger, “what else have you got to say?” The device makes a few clicking and whirring noises.

“AHH. IT SEEMS TO BE ANOTHER PART OF THE POEM I HAVE BEEN PROGRAMED WITH.

In diffeerent voice — that of the sonorous poet Valls, it says,

‘Before we reach our goal,’ the bulbul said,

five majestic cities lie ahead.

To Aspenthar's sands, where banners twirl,
Mighty legions march, their power unfurl.

and Duwwor's embrace, with flowers bright,
An Oasis of peace, bathed in gentle light.

and Lamasara's heart, where the muses dance,
Art and beauty weave in timeless romance.

and Merab's streets where cultures 'twine,
A cosmopolitan jewel of worlds aligned.

and Magic amidst the rocky hills' embrace,
sustaining Pashow's unnatural place.

The eyes in the head roll up and it screams in a woman's voice, full of rage:

ENOUGH, FOOLS! Gag them and drag them to Hamari's riveboat. GO!

Barker fetches for the head and hangs it on his belt

"Sorry pal, I was not aware that she will mess in your head, but I guess it unblocked something in you, that's good. Soon you will be singing kumbaya next to the fireplace."

Barker comments

"Does anyone knows Who Hamari is? How many riverboats could there be here?" asks Barker looking a bit concerned

There are many gambling boats and pleasure barges in the city. ask around and find that the ship Fickle Wind. It's a former cargo vessel that has been beautified and repurposed as a gambling hall. Its owner, Hamari, spent years with the ship going up and down the Junira. He decided to spend his savings to refurbish it only a few months ago but it's been closed since.

Off to the boat?

Zephrena thanks the gnome tinkerer for her help and compliments her work.

She speaks with her comrades. Yes, I think heading for the boat is next step. She hesitates a few moments thinking. So, do we think that last voice, the angry woman screaming was the bad guys who busted in and took Valls?

Barker taps at his mandolin for a moment.

"That would be my guess, she sounded vicious and angry, I once forgot to buy my girlfriend flowers for her birthday and she sounded very much the same ..."

Barker spaces out for a moment and then shakes his head

"Yeah lets go to the boat, Eleanor my dear tell me, how well do you play poker?"

"I think it sounded like the person we heard before, but I'm not sure." Rhys shrugs nonchalantly. "I'm sure we'll run into her eventually. Especially if we keep following this trail to the boat."

"Not very well I'm afraid. But I could feign a bit if needed. Use my age to our advantage." She offers a sly smile.

Moored by several sturdy ropes is a rather large, ornate dhow. It lacks sails, although most of the rigging is in place. The ship has been painted a garish green, and gaudy gold leaf highlights the many geometric carvings along the upper hull from bow to stern. Colorful flags wave in the light breeze coming off the river, and a series of green and blue lanterns hang from the rigging. A sign that reads “closed” is strung across the gangplank.

Of course you go aboard.

Two masts rise from the main deck of the ship, the foremost one leaning slightly toward the bow. A few tables and chairs have been arranged in neat rows. Two closed hatches are between the masts, while a stairway near the bow leads below deck. Toward the stern is a single door leading to an enclosed area below the quarterdeck, and stairs on either side lead to the quarterdeck itself.

From the top of the gangplank, Zephrena and Holly see an empty ship deck; there are piles of scrap by each mast. All is quiet. map updated

"Not very well I'm afraid. But I could feign a bit if needed. Use my age to our advantage." She offers a sly smile.

"Fellow performer once told me: 'If you can't spot the sucker in your first half hour at the table, then you are the sucker'" laughs Barker as he looks around the empty ship deck

"Do you think that gambling happens downstairs?"

The bard walks on the deck and looks around for any clues or signs of someone being dragged

Barker

In places where magic, alchemy, and engineering converge, there are often unforeseen side effects on the environment and its inhabitants. Scrapborn sometimes result from this strange convergence.

Mostly, scrapborn appear to be walking piles of assorted junk, seemingly assembled at random. Their actual bodies are vaguely humanoid with delicate, spongy green skin. They secrete an adhesive that allows them to gather up debris and attach it to their bodies for protection.

Scrapborn like to rip off pieces of peoples' armor and add it to their own already-strong protection. This is what happened to Zeph

Rare; only a S on a 19 on the die

______

Zeph slips away from the worst of it, but her beautiful plate armor takes damage, ignores hardness: 1d8 ⇒ 2 CS, S

______

ref: 2d20 ⇒ (20, 14) = 34

Holly smacks their target which target?: 1d2 ⇒ 1 while the other one avoids much of the blast. Eleanor notes it is resistant to electricity and takes no damage.

Zeph's target blocks her attack, sacrificing some of its armor to reduce the attack. Hardness 15 == 15 damage on the crit, but lowers AC for a time

The creature is unfazed by her intimidation. Failure
