Orlock's Bane (FAFO 15)

Last session - the aftermath of blowing up Profit of Pot and Karaoke fall out.
Tommy and Toni (water demons??) appreciated that the NPCs tried to stop the fall out and stem the violence, and we are welcome back at any time. They expressed dismay that poor Bruno was in a boating accident and the staff of Profits of Pot were all killed (oops) And of course the store was blown up. Newspapers are painting it as an insurance deal went bad, and Bruno was embezzling, and died.
We now EACH have an extra dot in Resources.
Next task??
Decided to find some herbs - a local witch has harvested some Orlock's Bane. We are to get him some. Riobhca Warwick - she lives in Roger's Park. What does this do? It's very dangerous for vampires. Might be fatal. Not sure how it harms.
Chicago hustler with cash economies, who launders money for devils. He has been inconsistent, and has been making mistakes, and this needs to stop.
Danger has risen to level 3. Chort has recommended us to lay low for a week or so. Janice also recommends that.
 
Andee's mom is getting courted with flowers.
Meet at the Library.
Look for more info on Riobhca just to see if we can get info on her instead of just showing up. Found info on her from the Shadow Web. There is a lot of occult discussions. With research Roger's Park Social. It's a few blocks from her apartment. There is a picture of her apartment building on her record. They bill themselves as a community center, but they have a lovely cocktail menu. There seems to be almost a club dedicated to finding her, and people look for her when looking for unusual object. She is talking about SUPER GARLIC for sale.
 
She sets up a time to meet at the club, 9pm. Don't let her give you anything, no gifts. No food, or things connected with food. And don't let her have the last word. Never allow her to cross the threshold into your place. The letter M that you can out in a doorway or portal that stops from them from crossing into the threshold. Leslie is going to stay outside. Riobhca is in a corner booth, and she is talking to a younger woman. (Samantha Granz) Samantha is negotiating something, and she is not getting her way. She is trying to be respectful, but she is not getting her way. Riobhca is listening and letting Samantha talk. Samantha gets up and heads out. She is not angry, but is frustrated. Samantha has a nasty scar on her neck. Samantha is looking for "whispered" garlic. She wants the werewolves to move 2 blocks south, and they won't agree to that.
 
Doug walks over to Riobhca. She is drinking whisky. Sliver, clove, bowl. Three sizes. Money is worthless to her. Someone is persistent and following her. You guys work for Chort? Need someone followed because need to know if this is someone good to sell. He's a Chicago local, but he's never had any interaction with anything supernatural. He's pit forward a considerable offer. Look into who is standing behind him? Riobhca is fine getting this for Chort, but she can't go sniff after the guy who wants to buy from her. Who is he shilling for and what they plan to do. She has a big leather pouch and pulls out this beautifully obsidian with gold fillagree business card. It is a thin slice of rock. She has a sense of... he seems so solidly routed in reality. SO MUNDANE. Would guess that he has never been in contact with the supernatural or had a serious dream in his life.
