Tavern Rumors of Peltarch

A bloodied knight returns from the southern swamplands, warning the guards at the gates of an increased hostility from the scaly inhabitants nearby - small and big. An electric bolt of lizardman design still fizzles, buried into the folds of a blue cloak.

_A small party is seen coming up from the south early one morning. Many recognize Therean traveling with another younger elf who seems to be new in the region along with a Half-orc humming a tune as he walks and a lady who moves quickly and furtively always on her guard.
Rumors begin to spread that the group was ambushed by bandits south of Peltarch. A bad lot calling themselves "Sweety's Gang" made up of worshipers of Umberlee and Talos. Seems they had some "business" with the musically inclined Half-orc, but their ambush went south._

A group of intrepid sewer patrollers, led by Sir Rath Ashald-Jorinsen and including Lady Ashena, Cecil, Walter, and Romulus; ventured into the Peltarch sewers to further investigate rumors of a vampire, and look for the missing children. What they found was deeply disturbing.
Not far inside under the Docks District, the ghost of a Peltarch guard was detected fleeting past them. The party gave chase, but the ghost disappeared near the area where the Vampire was encountered by Rath and company a few weeks ago. Voices and the sound of chanting were heard. A Cyriicist cultist ran at them but Romulus shot him before he could speak. Two more cultists attacked and were quickly dispatched by the powerful party.
Then the ghost of a small girl appeared alone. She seemed scared and tried to talk, but no sound came. Then the ghost of a Peltarch guard appeared nearby, drew a weapon, and stabbed the little girl in the heart. She collapsed on the floor and the guard's ghost disappeared.
Trying to investigate, the party reached the broken platform over sewer waters where the vampire was last seen. Walter, the most magically attuned, detected something popping around his head, as if a bubble had burst. Rath found an anchor and some rope, and Cecil, the strongest, tossed it across the stinking waters to a door that had previously been unreachable.
Romulus, the most dexterious of the group, crossed over and opened the door. He found the small room behind it empty, but the door slammed shut behind him and locked. Blood was seeping from the floor and began flowing under the door. Romulus used an amulet that allowed him to see invisibility, and made sure that the room was empty, except for the blood. He then used a universal key to open the door and cross back to his companions.
Cursing the bloody mad Cyricists, Rath and Ashena led the party back the way they had come. Walter again detected a poping sound. Afterwards, the party was attacked by a dozen slow-moving, halberd wielding, War Dead zombies. These had not been seen before. When they were safely destroyed, the party cleared the entire sewers of all the cultists, undead, slime, and oozes; then did the same to the barrows below. Nothing more unusual was detected. This mystery remains unsolved.

Apparently, orcs decided to try to wake the western tower, being slain by the guards inside, then pushed back by valiant adventurers, including Rath and his noble mount, Aspera, a redcloak somewhwere in the mix, and a defender or two, among others. A heroic fight pushed the orcs back where they belong!

A strange sight takes place at a pier in the docks district, with the flamboyant crew of a privately owned sloop-of-war identified as the Drake are seen outfitting their vessel with silver chains and small ballistae. Joining them in this is one rather corpulent knight frequently seen about Norwick, known to some as Sir Roderick and others as Sir Sandwich.

Of a group of four, at least Walter returned later to the city with one of these creepy cloaks. He bragged that no ghoulish garments going to make Dermin and him turn tail and flee; notably, the grip he bears on the 'dormant' cloak is firm and unrelenting, its unlikely that he eased his grip on the thing until it was safely in Cerulean care…

Rumors spread around peltarch that there were many cloakers spotted in the damp caves. adventurers should be extremely careful when heading down there.

Labur is seen running around the city at all hours of the day, entering shops gathering supplies and running back to the Peltarch Brewery. Few are able to stop him and he seems to have hung up his plate armor…at least for the time being. What ever he is up to he seems to be pleased doing it.

Not to long ago in the Temple of the Triad, a ghostly looking, loose lipped troll was seen ripping some kind of black goo off of the face of a darkly clad elven woman who was tied to a bench with silk rope while Victoria Beatrix, a priestess of Lurue was constantly healing her to ease the pain. Shorty after a there was some screeching as a shadow emerged from the goo and dissipated, due to the holy wards put on the temple.
They were asked to leave shortly after as they were making quite a disturbance.

Prudish tongues may wag and cluck disparagingly about a recent incident at the commons. It is said the ground positively churned with grease, mud and the slick, bare naked bodies of two swaggering sailors grappling and cursing. A third (decently clothed) one first doubled over laughing, then was grabbed by the ankles and shaken upside down by the other two, who swiftly scavenged the various shiny objects that fell out.
