Tavern Rumors of Peltarch
-
A tough Damaran, a servant of Kelemvor, is seen frequenting many inns, drinking and warning travellers.
"Careful of that lot in Norwick, if you get sent to prison, they call undead on you. Farkers, ask that mage Arlinn if you don't beleive me. Kelemvor will strike them all down for such farking shite."

_Strange whipers circulate around the city, it seems there is a huge party going on, but nobody seems to be able to find it.
One thing is for sure, empty ale bottles and Steins have been finding their way onto the streets…and even a drunken reveller can be found at times passed out in the shadows..._

@b5ab2ad374=Caoimh:
After much heated debate at a rather tense meeting of the Senate, surrounded by rumours that prominent Norwickian militiaman Devlin was facing banishment, the outcome appears to have narrowly emerged in his favour, with the casting vote of the Elder Senator being needed to break a deadlock. Good news for Devlin, a setback for those who would see him banished.
Devlin simply smiles and wags his brow once, as he hears the news, and turns on his heels with a whip of his cloak. He is seen exiting the city with a little bit of bounce to his step, but remains silent and modest.

_A most unusual occurance, at least, unusual for its timing, has come about in Peltarch.
Snow, not seen in the realm for many a year was falling in the Commons, and in the middle of Summer no less!
Those present did not worry themselves with questions as to why, preferring instead to enjoy themselves and take the time from their lives to unwind a bit with this most marvellous spectacle._

Adrian on his part does not seem pleased with the decision at all, and even less so with the manner in which Senator Ashald broke the tie. It seems that Ashald based his decision on the flip of a coin.

_Another perilous day for the plain folk of Peltarch as unforeseen (and mildly bizarre) threats to life, limb and emotional stability erupted from the Icelace and the thin air. Gastrognome and gobsworth, Perriwig P. Doubleday, spends his afternoon gossiping over scones about how the Docks were awash with smallish scaled invaders - a cohort of skilled adventurers putting the questing reptiles to the chopping block, with prejudice extreme.
No time to rest, however, for our civil slaughterers. Retiring to the Commons, a familiar sonic boom heralded the swivel eyed arcane strumpet Leanna. Crying the wizarding equivalent to a "view halloo", the blue clad quarry dragged in her wake a swarm of vast, poisonfanged serpents from the ether, with a sweet tooth for adventurer's flesh. What with the commoners beating hasty retreats at the hostile slitherers, none were laid low by vile poison - and what injuries there were among the small gathering of adventurers were hastily restored by the divines on hand.
Lesson to the wise in Peltarch: stay inside this winter. And spring. Summer too. Oh, and don't forget the Autumn…_

A blonde women seems to be sat in Ashald park alot recently, often looking like she is frozen apart from the slight movment of her lips.. She seems harmless but people avoid her just in case she has escaped from an asylm, it is unsure of what shes doing but every now and then a flicker can be seen near her. is it imagination? or something in the corner of citzens eyes? or something else?
-
Senator Ronan Redralen has been seen with a stressed look about him. The usually cheery sorcerer walks about, running his hand through his hair, or walking quick-paced about the city, as if in a hurry. Quite unusual behavior for him.
-
_Rumour has it that a giant brown bear attacked a caravan on its way to the city. Several adventurers were seen heading that direction afterwards, and returning several hours later with some goods and two bags dripping with blood.
A small hin dressed in green was then seen making her way to the Temple of the Triad with the goods, and leaving the Temple empty handed.
The blood filled bags were taken to the crematorium._

As some may have noticed, lately Merial and Benji had been fairly distant, to the point where when near each other, they hardly acknowledged it. Finally, after secluding herself in the Valley for more than a week, Merial was seen traveling to Peltarch where she found Benji and took him to the commons where they talked for several hours. Some may have heard Benji offer Merial a drink, and with an expression mixed of sadness, fear, and nervousness, she accept the offer. They disappeared into the Mermaid for several more hours, and when they returned, they both wore relieved and happy smiles, Benji leading Merial off towards the Legion hall hand-in-hand. It would seem the little couple have finally made up
-
_A recent disturbance in the Docks district has lead to a small residential house being sealed off by the guard, it's windowpanes smeared with blood on the inside. Rumours speak of terrible screaming from inside, the investigating guards retreating with grievous wounds before Captain Fortesque himself entered the house, flanked by Cerulean Knight Lycka and Oghman priest Terren. Whatever evil lurked inside, the trio seems to have dealt with swiftly, stepping back outside with grim expressions.
Furthermore, tragedy seems to have struck one of the staff at the Mermaid, the more sinister of rumours claiming the woman in question was brutally mutilated and delivered to the inn in bloodied chunks. Whatever the truth may be, there is no doubt that the incident has left the remaining staff rattled._
-
_Marie has been seen going to visit Benji, bringing him paper and charcoal so that he can continue to work on plans whilst imprisoned.
Gotta give a gnome… err... hin something to do, right?_
-
_Benji finds himself in jail after playing a prank on Devlin of the Norwick Militia. Rumor has it the charge is a lesser assault charge for use of a 'Gnomish Pranking Device.'
Benji seems to be in good spirits as he receives a few visitors.
Rumor has it he's even in the market for another set of Gnomish Hand Zappers or any equally funny gnomish gag._

Senator Martoushca Leaffall returns from her "diplomatic" voyage to Karatur dressed in a kimino and other "Eastern" accessories. She even hands out a good number of souvenirs*. Anyone spotting her at meal time would even catch her having a go at eating with a pair of sticks.
*Cheap nasty crap of no real use.
-
_Rumours spread about exact look-alikes of known citizens and adventurers cropping up of late, causing much confusion regarding true identity. Though some might attribute this to the whimsy of self-proclaimed god-child Leanna, others give the phenomenon a darker, more sinister name - doppelgangers.
Also, at the Lucky Ferret Inn, a ruckus of some sort seems to have occurred as Captain Fortesque could be observed entering and leaving the building, four or five guardsmen in tow. A short while later, a group of Black Sails exited, carrying the still form of barmaid Claire off towards the ferry to Oscura._
-
_* The waitresses at the Inn are overheard talking about a certain Senator who, though usually cheery with them is now one of quiet contemplation.
He is seen walking out the western gates and talking with the gaurds then returning to the Sentate unless having a meal at the inn or visiting the home of Eli and seems only to smile any longer when having a moment or two to play with her children. *_
-
There seemed to be some sort of disturbance at the College, what exactly it was is unknown, but almost a dozen bodies were taken to the Temple and carts of stone were hauled out and dumped into the Lake
-
After a long and mostly unexplained absence, Sir Aeadan has returned to the city. He is seen regularly in the poorer parts of the docks, where he offers aid and blessings to those most in need, and performs the ritual known as Torm's Table with any who are willing.
-
Albry has been seen traveling to Peltarch on a more regular basis than normal, which most of her time there is spent with Aelthas and Lycka when she can find them
