The missing package - NotSoShort -RP Event #1

by Aryn Kelpeth

I was strolling around the Orde market after having just been at the white pantheon temple to convert to the seven when a young lad caught my attention, he was spreading the word that an old lady named Eugenia Cowel who runs a general store was in need of assistance.
 
I decided to lend my strength and met 6 other who also answered the call:
Orkan - An orc running the a newsletter called "da bloody newz", I have read those before and he is quite talented at entertaining at the very least. He was also a Paladin following "some god", my guess is that he's following someone in the black pantheon. He didn't respond to the code phrase.
Dust - A gray kobold, he seemed a little sheepish but I can't blame him. Dolten is a cruel place to grow up in. His heart is in the right place.
Uvo - A strange halfling, almost seemed a bit... feral? A bit similar to what happens when I see too much blood.
Tarkus - Another orc, this one seemed a bit less of a goofball. Military background and a prosthetic leg.
Fritz - A tinkering gnome, clever and cunning. Seemed a bit obsessed and had a scattered mind but a good and smart person nonetheless.
Varen - A cautious man who responded to the cultist code phrase. Will investigate further after the job is done.
 
We investigated around the area and eventually was told of suspicious activity around the city gates. There we found scraps of paper wrapping from the package we're looking for leading out of the city, a child told Orkan that a monster was carrying crates out of the city. The child has an active imagination but the trail did leave to a forest outside Orde.
We followed footsteps and broken branches leading to a river, on the other side behind a rock we found the package, which was a bunch of groceries thrown around the place. The thief was no where around, we decided to simply deliver the groceries back as asked. The only thing missing from the groceries were the fish which is odd but Eugenia didn't seem to mind.
We got paid 50 gp for the trouble.
