Episode 2: Waterdeep Questionables

The party heads south into an alley and sees what looks like a ruined bar. Front-facing windows are smashed, one building has a ship's anchor lodged in the roof. The party comes to this building and can see through the windows what appears to be a few customers and a bartender. They enter silently. The patrons pause their chatting as the party enters. Spade walks up to the bartender "Aaayyy! One drink for me and..." He turns to the party that follows meekly. Aychem looks like he's already looking to fight some drunk in the corner. Roland is scanning the place. Korth sits businesslike next to Spade. Rake walks over to the nearest patron and says "Hi. Have you seen a red-head guy in here? He was supposedly in here like two days ago. Real rich looking?" Charisma check 16 DC13 SUCCESS. The man shifts in his chair "Yeah, he was here with his buddy. Or two of them. Yeah one left and another came to meet him. There was this gang of guys who followed them out when they left. They hang out over by Candle Lane. Your friend is probably over there." Rake responds "Oh we're not...well...Thank you very much." and tosses him a gold piece. As he walks away the man pockets the coin and says "Look for the snake symbol on the door." The party walks out while Spade chugs his tankard. He slams the glass down, slams a silver down, and runs his tiny legs after the group. *CLANG-CLANG-CLANG-CLANG* "Good ale!" he says as he reaches the party outside. They head out of the alley, heading eastward to avoid Useless Knicknacks, and then turn northward on The Way of the Dragon. A short way finds them hanging a left at Candle Lane. Gloom envelops the narrow alley as dark as a dungeon - and it smells bad too. The only light that pierces the shadows is a faint flickering from down the lane. The characters come to this streetlamp and see the snake symbol on a door to a warehouse. Aelar says "That's the Zhentarim logo." Spade looks up at Aelar then back at the door "...that's the snake..." Rake turns around and says "Alright guys, lets take this nice and slow, quiet as we can. If we find our guy, we get him out silently if we can, and if we can't, report to the authorities. Deal?" All the other party members nod except Aychem, who begins cracking his knuckles. "A fight?" He cocks an eyebrow. Rake gulps. "Do we want to fight?" He asks the group. Aelar responds "I'd prefer a short rest, but -" Korth interjects "Me too." Aychem turns to them "CAN you fight?" Aelar is silent. Korth grins, flashing a snout full of pointed teeth "Ya." Aychem looks to Rake. Rake looks to Roland and Spade, who both draw their weapons. "Alright," Rake says determinedly. "We go in quiet, we take a winnable fight, we save the guy." The group walks into the concrete yard in front of the entrance. They approach the front door and realize it's locked. Aychem moves to the front and attempts to pick the lock 16 SUCCESS The door swings open and the party quietly enters. Tables and chairs have been tossed across the floor. The corpses of a dozen men lie along the walls, their rapiers and daggers lying nearby. On the north side of the area, stairs rise to an open level above. Four short, avian creatures with long beaks and black feathers look over in surprise from where they stand in the middle of the warehouse. Each wears a hooded cloak and wields a shortsword.

The warehouse lights on fire and begins burning as 4 ash'd kenkus, 1 ash'd Rake, 1 ash'd Spade, 1 ash'd Korth, 1 unconscious and badly burned Aelar, 1 unconcious and badly burned Roland, and 1 unconscious and badly burned Aychem fall to the ground.

Aelar death saves fail success fail success success! Roland death saves success success success Aychem death saves fail success fail fail Aelar wakes up 1 hour later and surveys the damage, excited at the ash but surprised that wild magic was fortunate enough to generate a fireball. He forgets about this afair and heads back to the temple of Seldarine. Roland wakes up 2 hours later, sees that his companions have become ash, and debates whether he should continue to help Volo or not. While thinking, he notices what can only be a ghostly duplicate of Rake rise from one of the piles of ash. Warbled and nearly silent sounds ghastily echo through the warehouse as the ghostly Rake gestures in frustration "What!? No!! Fireball!? What!? How?? NO!" The ghost drops to it's knees, hands gripping his head as he pulls it into his chest "no..." Time appears to freeze. Roland feels himself pulled to the ground and sucked back into an unconscious state. when he wakes up, he's fired his arrow into the 1st kenku and is turning to see lightning erupting from Korths staff... It's as if they've travelled back in time... when *FWOOSH* a fog cloud centered on Korth manifests, effectively blinding everyone in the fight.

"Alright." Rake says, dusting off his hands "A winnable fight eh?" he turns to Aychem. Aychem is ducking to the robes of the Kenku and rummaging for loot. Rake turns to the rest of the party and says "Let's loot these, hit a perimiter, see if we can find a redhead." From one of the pockets of the Kenku, Aychem pulls a sack of 17cp and stowes it. The party loosely disbands and explores the warehouse, checking out the dead bodies and the boxes of supplies. As they're exploring, Rake has an idea. "Guys," he turns, excited "everybody find a black suit that fits." And begins digging into the box to his right. As he looks he says "That way, if we ever need them, we can blend in. Eh?" He looks to spade, who is pulling himself over the edge of a box and falling in facefirst. His feet kick in the air "I like it!" The party grabs black garb and continues searching the warehouse. They find a room beneath the stairs. They can hear what seems to be a man struggling, gagged. They look between themselves and Aychem steps up to slam through the door. Next time: Rescue

Episode 1: Waterdeep Wonders

"swap out one villain for another at any time" Villain: Manshoon "feel free to embellish and change what you will" "given how strictly laws are enforced in waterdeep, it's possible that the adventure could end with one or more of the characters being exiled, sentenced to several years of hard labor, imprisoned, or put to death. If that's how their adventure ends, so be it. Hopefully, your next group will fare better." Friends: Rake is friends with Jalester Silvermane Spade is friends with Meloon Wardragon Aelar is not friends with anybody. Roland is friends with threestrings Korthkepesk is friends with bonnie Aychem Houre is friends with Yagra Stonefist

The party of 6 are drinking and playing bone dice in The Big Hole. They sit around a sturdy wooden table lit by a brightly burning candle and littered with plates cleared of food and half-drained tankards. The sounds of gamblers yelling and drunken adventurers singing bawdy songs nearly drown out the off-key strumming of a young bard three tables over. Then all the noise is eclipsed by a shout: "Ya pig! Like killin' me mates, does ya?" Then a seven-foot-tall half-orc is hit by a wild, swinging punch from a male human whose shaved head is covered with eye-shaped tattoos. Four other humans stand behind him, ready to jump into the fray. The half-orc cracks her knuckles, roars, and leaps at the tattooed figure - but before any blood is drawn, a crowd of spectators clusters around the brawl. Rake turns to the group "Any o' you know them?" while Aychem practically overturns the table with a shove from his massive arm as he starts towards the fight, grimacing. Korth glances between Rake, Roland, Spade, and Aelar, who looks amused at Aychem's apparent anger, and shakes his snout slowly. Spade shrugs and watches Aychem nearly flip another table, sending two chairs flying with his legs as he reaches the back of the crowd. Roland does a visual scan of the perimeter then watches Aychem roar "OUT OF THE WAY!" (intimidation check 1+4CRITFAIL) at the exact same time, two of the four men jump in on the fray while roaring themselves. The crowd is deaf to Aychem’s bellow. Aychem begins shoving the crowd out of the way and reaches the fight.

Yagra stands and dusts herself off "Thanks Aychem, but you know I had that." Aychem chuckles "I know." Yagra grins "You just can't resist a fight, can you." Aychem replies "You're welcome." And turns to head back to the group. Durnan clears the crowd away and picks up Krentz' unconscious body then looks towards the door. Waiting is the last quiverying, fearful Xanathar bandit. Durnan heads towards the door so his bar can be rid of this scum when shouts of alarm suddenly ring out. A hulking creature climbs up out of the big hole in the ground  - a monster with green warty skin, a tangled mess of wiry black hair, a long, carrot-shaped nose, and bloodshot eyes. As it bares yellow teeth and roar-howls, you see a half dozen bat-like creatures fly up behind it in pursuit. Everyone in the tavern moves away from the monster except the barkeep, who drops Krentz and runs towards the bar while watching the beast and shouting "TROOOLL!!' The party is stunned as the 9-foot tall troll before them roars away the crowd, leaving their table the closest. 3 of the batlike stirges flitter over to Aychem and Spade and attack.

Magic particle effects surge out through his arms into the staff and burst forth as he casts Chaos Bolt 8+5WHIFF wild magic surge as tides of chaos restores but *POOF* Korthkepesk turns into a potted plant. Spade looks bewildered at where Korth once stood "Wha-?" turns to the troll "Uhh." Looks back to the potted plant as he runs towards the troll and swings his hammer 14HIT 1+2 3DMG 77DMG/84HP Rake attacks with quarterstaff 16HIT 7+3 10DMG KO Durnan runs over to the nearest lantern, grabs it, runs halfway back and chucks it at the unconscious troll lying on the ground. The oil splashes across its torso. "Burn it! It's gonna come back unless we burn it!" Aelar grins "gladly" and casts burning hands downwards at the corpse. His eyes light up as the flames cackle and consume the troll, fueled by the oil.

Durnan turns to the group as Korth *POOF* becomes a silver lizardfolk sorcerer again "you fought well." Rake grins "Thanks!"

A figure approaches the party against the tide of people keeping their distance from the danger and stands before the party. He strokes his mustache, adjusts his floopy hat, and tightens his scarf. "Volothamp Geddarm, chronicler, wizard, and celebrity, at your service. I trust you've noticed the violence in our fair city these past tendays. I haven't seen so much bloodshed since my last visit to Baldur's Gate! But now I fear i have misplaced a friend amid this odious malevolence. "My friend's name is Floon Blagmaar. He's got more beauty than brains, and I worry he took a bad way home a couple nights ago and was kidnapped - or worse. If you agree to track him down with all due haste, I can offer you ten dragons apiece now, and I can give you each ten times that when you find floon. May i prevail upon you in my hour of need?" He holds out small pouches of gold. Rake answers "Sure!" glancing at the rest of the party eagerly. Aychem answers "Yeah, we'll take your gold." Spade says "We'll find your friend." "Gladly." Roland says. Aelar and Korth accept their pouches silently. Rake continues "So, got any clues as to his whereabouts? Where he was last seen or anything like that?" Volo answers "He's a handsome human male in his early thirties with wavy red-blonde hair. He was dressed in princely garb when I last saw him. Two nights ago we were drinking at the Skewered Dragon in the Dock Ward. I recommend you start there." Roland scans the perimeter for a man that matches this description. Spade pipes up "A trip! To the dock ward! Ayy!" as he begins walking merrily towards the door. Rake nods to Volo and Durnan and the party exits into the streets. They turn left out of The Big Hole and zig-zag their way southbound on Snail Street. Along the way, one of the side-streets is cordoned off by the City Watch. Lying on cobblestones are a half-dozen corpses, seemingly the victims of some terrible skirmish. Watch officers have disarmed and arrested three bloodied humans and are in the midst of questioning witnesses. One of the officers is ushering passers by "Go on, nothing to see here." The party passes quietly. As the party gets deeper into the dock ward, tall, densely packed tenements cast shadows over most of the ground. Most streetlamps are smashed. The smell of salt and poop alternate as the party walks past rows of run-down buildings. The characters turn left off Snail street and continue on fillet lane. Korth asks "It's one of these, right?" Roland answers "We're in the right general area." Aelar adds "Should be between Fillet lane and Net street, so it could be one of these or could be around the corner." The party scans the buildings, but most of them are dilapidated or utterly barren. One nearby building stands out from the others. It has a deep purple facade, and in its window hangs a stuffed beholder. Above the door hangs a sign whose elaborate letters spell out "Useless Knicknacks." The beholder catches the eye of Spade "Spooky." The party stops, intrigued by this apparently open store surrounded by a veritable sea of collapsing, abandoned architecture. They enter. A cloud of lavender-scented purple smoke trails out of the shops door as the party walks in. Every wall is painted purple, and every dusty item on the shelves is dyed violet. The hairless old gnome sitting cross-legged on the counter wears plum-colored robes. His cheeks are decorated with nine purple face-painted eyes. The gnome lowers a pipe and exhales a cloud of lavender smoke before raising his hand. "Hail and well met! Come browse the shelves of the most curious curiosity shop in the world!" "Curious indeed" mumbles Aelar. The characters begin to browse the shelves. Rake finds a petrified mouse "Gross." Spade finds a purple glove "Nice. How much for this?" The gnome responds "4 gold." Spade is taken aback. "What does it do?" The gnome pauses a moment and opens his mouth but stops himself, looks around and says "Keeps...the hands warm." Spade looks at the glove and at the shelf. "Do you have the other one?" The old gnome responds "...no." Spade looks down at the glove and then back to the shopkeep. "2 gold?" The gnome grins "2 gold." Spade purchases a purple glove and grins brightly as he dons it.  Aelar finds a purple mechanical canary inside of a lamp. He thinks to himself 'Burn it. Set it ablaze. That canary has no business being there.' He looks to his teammates, valuable meatshields, and continues walking the aisles. Roland finds a rank insignia and picks it up, admires it, and puts it back. Korth finds a tiny silver icon of a raven with purple eyes. He turns to the gnome "Does this do anything?" The gnome, getting peevish now begins "The items here are storied and decorative..." Korth puts it back, ignores the gnome, and begins heading towards the door. Aychem finds a silver skull the size of a coin. "Cool" he says, as he pockets it. Sleight of hand check 6+5 11 on DC12 SUCCESSWITHATWIST. The party leaves with the gnome yelling angrily "AND DON'T COME BACK!". Aelar mumbles "Agreed." Next Time: The Skewered Dragon
