Morning

D

trying to figure out his powers a bit... and eventually, my patron

P

is trying to figure out his Friend riddle

I’m made not of metal, wood, nor glass,
Though I am weaker, then stronger, as times pass.
I find all who seek me, and many who don’t,
And if you deny me, sometimes I won’t.
In the Grand City I am rumored missing,
Though in truth it is there I am most giving.
I bind the world, both true and token,
To begin, come to the place I am made from the broken.

Z

taking up too much space

I see a person crouching
found a man taking a shit...

Afternoon

P works on his riddle with help from Z
D keeps watch with help from P

Camp at the Abandoned Farmhouse

Little farm
Abandoned

Terry Wags spits out his chew and sounds nice

P detects magic

P has soo many crits

transmutation magic
very old, not recent

Z and P Scoping the joint

D stays with carriage
P sees two mounds of dirt
Z sees two wooden grave markers

• Ma
• Pa

Check with Terry Wags and he was here ~2 months ago
tell him parents are dead and ask about the kids
brother 9
sister 12

Z and P check out the farmhouse
place was inhabited and was abandoned

Z finds a basement
it's very dark
P mage hands a candle down into the basement
old crates and barrels and tools

stealth checks (at disadvantage)
all seems clear

they check the stables

clear

Z thinks barding was hastily thrown on a horse

they check the shed

P picks the lock
a bat flies out and smacks him in the face

What's going on here?

P thinks about the clues
this is a scene of violence

something related to the transmutation magic
killed a bunch of people
survivors departed on the last horse
traces of blood
deep gashes in the earth
damage isn't weather or wear or time

blood is focused in the back of the house and stables
magic is lined up with the blood

Z casts sleep on our mates

humanoid exits the house
limping
looks at the stable

a messy crop of hair, wearing a long trenchcoat with a high collar
a glint in it's eyes
steps into the light
we see a man

Z checks to see if he's undead, he is!

Z turns undead
he stumbles back

Save Ferris?

Z intimidates the f out of him

I'm a cursed wretch, I'm a vampire
would anyone please feed me?

P cuts his hand with a dagger
Z - make him sign your book first!

signs his name Ferris

P gives him a few drops

he wants more but won't ask for it

he took an oath not to harm any living creature
Z religion checks him, he's signs are god Torm (god of courage and self sacrifice)

Azuriel named herself planetar of Torm

His friend Shaw used to come

P asks Z and D to be nicer to him

He was a cleric of Torm in Karthan
Great Fortress Healis in Karthan

sharing drinks with a woman
an emerald earring cut as a star
all goes dark
so empty, so cold
she gave him something warm
he fled
Shaw found him and stopped coming around a month ago
from Karthan, job at a tavern in the city called the "Moist Clam"

D nat 1s an insight... he's nuthin

What now? Azurial, lady of steel perished thousand years ago?
our scriptures say she fell in battle between angels and demons

Wizard teamed up with angels to defend
the patron city of the lady of steel
the name of the city is lost to time

she was a high ranking angel
her great lover died on the battle field
Magnia Everstorm? no.

Angel Hadrin
is he as powerful as she?
black smithing

Torm severed his bond with him when he turned

P offers 1 pint of blood Z bends it into a wine bottle
he drinks about half

he gets hotter

For Shaw, if is in trouble, he wants to know what happened

werewolf happened here

he was hiding up in the attic

good for a month with that amount of blood

Ferris will keep first watch with Pim

F asks: Are you a goblin?
As far as I know, I'm a half-elf

he came up from slums of Karthan, found Torm
became a rising star there
starting his own sect and
working on a temple in Karthan

Tempis (god of war) is the main Karthan job

D: crits the watch perception!

Z is concerned that if she got turned into a vampire, would she not be able to be a cleric? She doesn't feel like there would be a change

Why Torm? shiny armor, got food sometimes from a Tempis temple
Tempis teaching not his bag, too morally grey
Torm was still war-aligned, similar... but more his bag, lawful good

Z asks about how could Azurial be okay by Torm and yet he isn't.

something weird going on in his situation.

Morning

It's nice and we depart

cliffs, see the sea

Karthan

enormous city
on the bay into the east
harbor with a port, ships, etc

far side of the city, a gigantic castle

Maps!
