Rumors heard throughout Oscura.

A beaten and battered Benji is seen sprinting out of the underdark with a gang of Kuo Toa in tow. After he makes it through the gate covered by Oscuran arrows he thanks the guards.
Later, on his way to the boat, he's heard sputtering curses about Kuo Toa, the cheap ale, and Raryldor.

A party of surfacers skulked into the city last night, and were later found passed out in the vicinity of the Well of Souls and arrested for their obvious vagrancy. The story goes that they were lead by a pompous jerk who called himself a Knight, but never stopped whining and moaning about the injustices of the city. "I think he's confusing the term knight with jackwagon, HAR HAR," one man jokes over and ale, and the patrons of the Coppers laugh in an uproar.

Being ever so studious, Ferdinand makes time to look through each book and spends his evenings reading what he can.

Some new books have arrived at the library, apparently being dug out of some old archive. According to the librarian Lauren, who has already read most of them, they aren't of any real interest, more about simple curiosity.

There was some kind of altercation between Anna Kursk and Neferhetep Sakhmet in the Shiny Coppers… onlookers tried to reason between them before they left in an unusual hurry.
Since hearing rumours swirl from the coppers, Vladimir has been notiocably less plesent towards any Sakhmet or their affiliations, slaves, traders or mamuluks

Sarantha lately is seen wandering out of oscura, clumsily wearing some scale armor, wielding a buckler and a light mace. She heads out to hunt the rock snakes, most often coming back with a lot of snake bites bleeding all over the place. She doesn't seem the adventuring type so it's anyones guess why she is doing this, perhaps she is learning to defend herself.
-
Brynden, the crimson haired Oscuran has not been seen in Oscura too much of late. When he is, however, he is wearing a black hooded cloak (Hood down, not covering his head) with no emblem of any kind, and spends a good amount of time in the cemetary.
Strange.
-
A young woman has been seen lately going about Oscura running errands. One day however she was not seen doing her usual routine, but when she is seen again she appeared beaten, bruised, and bloody. She appears to be furious, disappearing into the temple.
-
Rumors float throughout Oscura that a New Inquisitor has been selected by the Tribunal, the identity is not yet known. But the people of Oscura are ever eager to find out.
-
Ekmen Kyzanos was seen to have a long meeting with Thayan wizard Alesander Donamin in the backroom of the Coppers. The topic gives a little room for guesses as Alesander was one of those who had rented some time ago exploded mansion from the Kyzanos family.
-
Very loud noises deep back in the living quarters of the shiny coppers disturbs the calm abruptly. The commotion ends by the sound of one last crash that leaves the door trembling. A low whisper of a monologue follows. After another short while the door opens and one dark figure leaves the area. The living quarters however, is empty as if the man had been fighting himself.
-
A mage arrives by boat to Oscura from Peltarch. She makes conversation at the docks then heads on in to Oscura proper to browse the wares on display at the alchemy store.
Her clothing comprises a simple red robe and fur cloak. Several scroll cases are suspended from the sash at her waist, interspersed with pouches containing spell reagents. She is neat in appearance; the head-scarf covering her hair having kept away the wind-swept look.
-
At the Shiney Coppers there was a brief but heated arguement between a blue haired pale skinned human wearing black sails colours and his slave, a dark skinned gnome wearing a talisman of talos . The row ended when the human flicked the cigar he was smoking at the gnome, and then threatend the gnomes destruction.
-
A young woman, about the age of 16 or so, was seen wandering about Oscura seemingly lost. She kept her head down, looking up from time to time to make sure she wasn't about to stumble into someone or something. Those who get a glance at her face when she does look up will notice that her cheeks are flushed and her eyes moist. It is not hard to tell the young woman has been crying a lot, though why can be anyones guess. After wandering for a while she finally finds a place to sit, and covers her face with her hands and begins to sob more. Should anyone approach she quickly wipes her eyes and sniffles back a sob trying, and failing, to hide it.

A fine Peltarch lady sat by the park, slipping one foot forward to smooth dust off outrageously pretty red boots. Her hair was swept up under an extravagant and rather jaunty orange hat that’s the perfect compliment to the glorious red and orange silken gown she wore.
With a waft of delightful peach scent trailing after her, the dilettante swept into The Coppers in all her finery looking really rather proud of herself.
Likely of more interest than her was the ornate jewellery at her neck. Magnificent tendrils of gold-colored metal surrounding a large red gem glowing with clear bright light.
But not for long.
Because she disappeared off out of the common room hand-in-hand with a Lady of the Night!
How frightfully daring!
-
Brynn, as she is known, is seen more and more frequently around Oscura with Brynden Blackwater. Clad in less woodsy attire; her leathers are now now more like his ensamble, shades of black: complete with dark shadows swirling around her breasts, chest and neck from her collar. A new large doublebladed sword is at her back and matching scimitars at her hips. Steel eyes rimmed in black look more wary than usual and the rumor of her having recently been the casualty in a very messy assasination attempt after having been blooded for a mere 6 hours has become a prominant subject on the tongues of the commoners.
-
A Man in fine garmets and masked by a dark cloak is seen entering the Library and searching through various books, spending a few moments with each book, reading a few passages and flipping through pages. After a while his curiosity seemingly satisfied he leaves, disappearing into the shadows of the city.
-
An elf in silver plate with a name of bright red hair flowing loose strides into the library. She browses the shelves, sitting down to leaf through a number of volumes on the underdark; maps, and its denizens and heroes.
-
Brynden Blackwater stands at the coppers, his armor dented in covered in the blood of 3 different people, including his own. He snarls and answers questions depending on who is asking, but he doesn't look happy. Cymbline stands next to him with a certain blank look in her eye…
It seems they were involved in this little altercation.
