Session 1 Report, The Beginning in Beregost

General Summary

Session 1, May 25 2021

• Characters arrived in Beregost

• Characters shared how they arrive and why they’re in Beregost

• Heinrich - arrived on foot. Seems to be looking for a man named Vivius who did not pay after being guided by Heinrich through a treacherous jungle.

• Heard the town cryers and after some hesitation made their way to the Strange Manor, where they met in the reception room and described their individual characters appearance

• Heinrich - has short auburn hair with a big bushy beard. In the middle of his beard he has a tuft of black hair. His skin is light, but weathered. He has black eyes and his build is more slender and lithe than most dwarves. His arms seem to be disproportionate as his hands hang past his knees. He has tattoos on his arms and legs that are difficult to perceive through his dense body hair. He has a pungent bag attached to his belt and it seems its various stains come from the contents within.

• Penny - has mini bagpipes and cooking utensils

• Rysar - has a staff with a clock dial on the top of it

• Nestolis - doesn’t wear shoes and trousers that are nice, but worn

• Tiffany - conspicuously inconspicuous to the trained eye

• Chayton - was fascinated by the clock of Rysar

• After the characters met Raum Thelee and Naito Failynn they were escorted to Lady Morrigan Strange’s study, where they were told what needed to be accomplished and that they had 3 days to get it back before the festival began

• After being seated back at her desk, Nestolis approached and asked, (I believe) if Lady Strange had sent word to Nestolis’ father, Strange said she had not but would do it indeed.

• The characters were then escorted to the Lady Strange’s collection, the scene of the crime… players described what they saw

• Nestolis recognized a few items in the collection, having sent a few item to Strange for caretaking

• Rysar was nervous about large person standing behind him

• Pennie, picked a tooth off the glass shelf and then saw the silver gloves with severed hands and put the tooth back

• Heinrich, noticed a birdcage in which a portion of the back panel appeared to have been blown open by an explosion, and it contained a few feathers in the bottom of the cage

• Chayton saw a battle axe, giant axe that belong to Zor the ruthless

• Heinrich casts faerie fire to “highlight” a couple of clues as to who might have stolen the orb, which there are three of

• The casting revealed a bit of course dark brown hair, next to the empty orb as well as a hoofprint next to a window

• Raum was asked to open the window and Pennie went out and found a few more broken tiles, she “leaped” back inside

• After some debate, the party went out to the grounds to perform the scrying ritual, which Heinrich successfully casted.

• A half-man half-goat was seen through the ritual, going down some stairs into the darkness

• After the ritual was over and Raum was putting the material components up, a young girl caught the attention of Pennie and Nestolis… talking with Nestolis the young girl, Nancy Finn said that she is worried about her soon to be husband Ryce and that she has not seen him since this incident and that she saw the creature last night heading toward the East. Nestolis gave the young girl a scarf and told her to follow the emblem on it and that she would meet Nancy tomorrow afternoon.

• After this the characters headed back to Beregost to rest for the night and make preparations for their journey to the Ulcaster Ruins

• Nestolis talked the innkeeper into letting them all stay at the Morning Lord’s Rest, except that Heinrich has to leave his bag outside
