Session 38: Blackmail Report

General Summary

Virion hides Tomas Primewater's journal within his matress by cutting a slit into the underside of the matress. He also puts his healer's kit in to try and cover up what's hidden. He also puts his own journal in there.

After he hides his things, he hears a knock at the front door. He then vomits into a chamber pot from all the alcohol, and is still very drunk. Eliander knocks again. Virion yells "One moment!" and vomits again, getting rid of some of the alcohol. Finally he gets to the door.

"Sir Sylvene, are you alright?" Is all Eliander says. Virion explains that he's ill and wants to lie down. The group asks if they can come in for a few questions, though; they're concerned because of the Primewater probe.

Virion invites them in and has them sit down, they have a brief exchange and confirm that Virion (who lies through his teeth) didn't steal anything.

Virion heads back with the others to the party claiming he's recovered, but Ingo goes home. Leading us to Ciaran:

While all this has happened, Ciaran has finished searching the main building, and plans to move on to the storage building. One Gaseous Form later, and they're in.

Searching the premises yeildings nothing interesting: though Ingo does have more paperwork and a cache of gold in this room. Seeing nothing else, she plans how to cover his tracks. Ciara unlocks the doors, and using his cloak she sneaks out to Crabber's Cove, where they collect 9 crabs in an bedroll. Three crabs are put into the storage area. Ciaran then casts Enlarge/Reduce. The first resists, but the second fails. Now, one of the crabs is halfling-sized. Ciara breaks some flower with a crab claw. They then go into the other house and unleash more crabs, enlarging them one by one six times ("once per crab").

They then hear a crash from the other room. Investigating, they find the crabs have accidentally broken through the wooden wall, revealing a secret room. They investigate it, breaking open a chest and finding documents implicting Ingo as someone else running from the Overchief. Unfortunately, Ciara also opens a giant crate, reavlig a massive monster of metal and wood. The construct attacks as Ciaran flees in gaseous form and wildshape, but it's no use; she gets to the door and is swiftly knocked unconcious.

Interrogation, two Eliander Fireborns, the Bilious Saber has Ingo as a captive. The Rambunctious Devil is a keelboat with clockwork oars.

Innik is MCing at the Oweland night. Virion is giving a bladesong performance the first night of the festival. The group comes up with a draconic passphrase: What's your favorite color? and the counterphrase: Periwinkle (Captain Fireborn's favorite color is Periwinkle).
