New Acquaintances Report

General Summary

Peridot and Leonidas met for the first time in the Day’s Rest Inn. They are both looking for Ellowyn and now they need to work together to prove themselves to the New Dawn.
Even though both Baggsy and Roggers are pretty useless, they had a bit information on what to do next. It is their ‘trial’, a way in to the New Dawn.
There is an old dwarven blueprint called SILVERROD#16 that Dot and Leo need to find and create. The execution is up to the duo but because of Dot’s situation they’re on a schedule. It is probable that the news of Dot’s disappearance are going to reach the Upper levels in a couple of days.
Creating a pure silver rod is expensive and the rod needs to be worth 500 silver pieces, at least. Unfortunately, both of them are absolutely broke and the most important thing is to find some money, one way or another.
Dot and Leo were not ready to commit a crime just yet and wanted to find a way to deal with things the legal way. Dot knows mortals in town and she’s pretty sure that at least Diamond can help them.
Even with her background, Dot doesn’t know anything about ancient Dwarven blueprints. She was never really into history. Because of that they needed to start asking around for the blueprints.
They met up with Silversmith Laurell who is, unfortunately because he’s a bitch, one of the best and most resourceful smiths in town. Laurell’s Silver and Jewellery is a shop on the Guilds’ Way where only the snobs can afford to visit. Dot and Leo were not warmly welcomed.
It seems like Laurell and Papa Lee don’t see eye to eye.
It doesn’t stop Laurell from giving a word of advice to Dot. Don’t go digging around too deep about past things. Drakkens don’t like that. But Laurell’s a bitch and no one listens to him anyways so screw him.
Next on the list was one of Dot’s acquaintances blacksmith Briar who operates on the edges of the town together with her apprentice Evander. Even though Briar didn’t have any useful information, Evander could tell the duo about a place called Dwarven Archive where a lot of ancient Dwarven Blueprints are stashed. Unfortunately he didn’t know where it is located but he mentioned that Die could probably know with all her academic interests.
Next on the agenda was to find a way to make some quick cash. They wandered to the notice board where they got interested in two jobs.
First the duo went to the Temple of Meliora to talk with Potion Master Glanna of Meliora who is organising a mission to collect ingredients from the caverns. She was ready to pay 20 silver per day. Her crew was leaving in the morning at 6am.
The other job was from the council head Thorsten Rustfang. The town needs help with exterminating the rats that have begun to move in a strange way. His secretary Silas told the duo more about the mission and they decided to take it. It would pay them enough to forge the silver rod. 50 gold pieces for a job done 100 gold pieces for solving the mystery surrounding the rats and their strange behaviour. 150 gold pieces for solving it and quick. (Yes,yes, very CR3 with Lord Eshteross, sue me>D)
Most of the rat attacks had happened on the poorer areas, especially the district of Ashbrook. Silas told that the Academy of Auspicious Future (AAF) had an animal expert who could tell them more about the rats. His name is Korrin.
Now Dot and Leo are on their way to AAF to talk with Korrin and hoping to find Die after her lectures.

and because the DM doesn’t know how write notes, the report is absolute chaos. Sue me.
