Session #1: Strange Be(ginn)ings

General Summary

When the story left off, the rag-tag group of rebels and survivors found themselves in the heart of the Empire of Dreus, Waterdeep. After meeting together, Alex, the plague doctor from Silverymoon, Kiwi, a wood elf cursed with blindness, Kuro, a sharpshooting wood elf taking care of his daughter, Hope, a hot tempered fire genasi burning with rebellion, and Luthrin, a tiefling with a devilish tongue and attitude to back it up all met together. Alex noticed that the daughter of Kuro, a young girl named Aila, was suffering from a flu like disease that could greatly harm the body or mind of a child. However, since it was getting late, the group decided to rest before leaving for some sort of medicine the following day.
As the party awoke, everyone but Luthrin joined the group to visit a clinic created by the Court of Wellness to find a cure for Aila's disease. Due to the parties general distrust of the association in control of the clinic, they decided to find the cure themselves in the wilderness outside of the city, so they decided to exit the city of splendors and visit the wilderness in hopes of finding an herbal remedy to Aila's illness. Speaking to a squirrel, Kiwi finds some flowers that Alex knows will be a vital component in healing Aila, but the party is attacked by a pack of wolves. In the fight, Alex shows their predilection for magic, Hope, her trusty greataxe, and Kuro his proficiency with a bow.
After returning to the city and providing Aila with medicine for the time being, the party are offered a job by Fretarkis Geddarm. Geddarm, being an advocate against Dreus rule offers plenty of coin to the party for meeting him at the Yawning Portal, a tavern in Waterdeep frequented by adventuring types. Once there, a barfight of little coincidence breaks out, but during that fight, a troll climbs out of a well in the center of the tavern, bringing nine stirges with it.
As the party readies to square off with the new foes, they are joined by a new rabble of ne'er do wells. Finn, a wizard from a far off school, Grimace, a purple mutant from the mysterious organization known as McDonalds, Nunerez, a dishonored blue dragonborn soldier, and Sediment, an earth genasi who records history into her books. As the fight begins, three of the stirges are sated by the troll blood and return down the well.
The six left over are quickly dispatched by a sleep spell from Finn and the troll follows soon after, being slain by the proprietor of the tavern. After all of this the eight treasure seekers, excluding Kuro who was busy at the time, are given ten gold each by Fret to find his friend, Floon, who had gone missing recently. The job being taken by the original party, they ventured off until they find Renard, a friend of Floon's who was with him when he was captured.
Travelling with Renard, the adventurers travelled through the sewers to a hideout where they found Floon and saved him from a Mind flayer. After they return to Fret, the adventurers are thanked profusely, and given a mansion in Trollskull alley.
