Rumors heard throughout Oscura.



  • Frances looks interrested somewhat when she hears about auction.



  • Rumours of an upcoming auction hosted by the Black Sails reach Oscura via the docks. While few specifics are yet known, it's suggested that anyone favouring skill and finesse over brute strength will find a multitude of high quality items available - for the right price.



  • Chaevre' is heard inquiring about purchasing property in Oscura and about opening a kiosk in the docks to sell merchandise

    ((Dunno which dm to contact for Oscura housing. If someone can let me know i would appreciate it))


  • Legion

    Freelancing thief in Oscura his name starts witha a D



  • Chaevre' has been seen in the Oscuran trade hall asking for any miners who are able to mine Onyx gems to contact her



  • A group of adventurers is seen leaving the Keep of the Fallen, after several hours within, doing the Gods know what. They apparently spoke with someone called "The Vizier" about new business opportunites that may arise. Who this Vizier is or where he's from is unknown, but one thing's for certain: While he was there, the otherwise haunted tower was pretty much devoid of life. Ehr… Unlife.



  • A troll, or more likely someone poly-morphed into a troll was seen carrying a large piece of cargo or equipment wrapped in a tarp onto the Leviathan. Once across the gang plank, the mysterious item was tied up and slowly lowered down through the cargo hatch via the overhead pulleys.

    About a day later, a glorious looking and freshly painted cannon was raised back through the cargo hatch.

    For those that frequent the crumbling docks… They would have observed the Leviathan's carpenter doing several days of meticulous work building a rotating and uncovered turret to hold the beastly deck gun.

    Anyone who knows ship building or siege construction and gets a chance to look at the cannon up close. Would notice that the amount of force the turret is built to restrain is, very significant. Much more so than for any other traditional cannon of this size.

    Rumours amongst the other Oscuran ship crews and dock workers begin to circulate, that this cannon is not of this world.

    Once work on the cannon is fully completed, it thereafter remains securely covered with a tarp.



  • The Leviathan was out of port for a while.. Almost a couple weeks again.

    Upon Leviathans return the owners and guests departed the ship. Everyone disembarking with the thousand yard stare, that says I've just been to hell and I'm exhausted.



  • These days Cray spends most of his time on the Leviathan, basically taking up full time residency there.

    He can often be seen from the crumbling docks as he putters about the deck and rigging. Sometimes even retiring to the crow's nest with a cigar and brandy.

    For those that spend a considerable amount of time in the docks, they would observe or overhear that Cray runs a tight ship, he is a stickler for rules, procedures and principles. But as long as the ship remains up to spec, spick and span. Cray is otherwise easy going with the crew, encouraging them to enjoy themselves and treating them as valuable employees.

    It has also been rumoured amongst the sailing crowd, that Cray has been overheard talking excitedly about the subject of black-powder canons… The Leviathan is currently not outfitted with such, but it could be something Cray is contemplating?

    ((Any PC tinkerers, engineers, or smiths could perhaps profit from approaching Cray and broaching the canon subject with him.))



  • _The Leviathan was out of port for almost two weeks.

    Shortly after her docking back in Oscura, the ships owners disembarked and headed for the Shiny Coppers.

    The Leviathan crew stayed on board for sometime after the ships return. Conducting routine maintenance and re-supply. The next day however, the crew is seen throwing some coin around town and heard taking about a trip to the Moonsea._



  • Alvaniel Danicen is seen moving between the local drinking establishments having a drink or two and then moving on… she seems intent to listen to the local gossip and see who is present.



  • Cray has been asking around Oscura about Teresa Smith… He alludes she's wanted for questioning, but he won't say regarding what.

    Cray has offered a thousand gold for information regarding her whereabouts.



  • Chea mentions once she hears:

    • expecting curses in retaliation and as deterrent. such things happened, happen, and perhaps will happen… once one heard: 'a curse of worms in Your ass', which reduced nation's wood surplus significiantly... due to a worms plague... rather unpleasant but happens. one suspects other versions of this curse such as 'would you like some worms in arse?'


  • _Unofficial sources rumor that a strategic and thought to be unassailable keep straddling the Damara and Narfell border has been taken by rebel forces seeking to overthrow the Dragonsbane administration. Piles of bodies and livestock suspected to comprise the garrison, have been burnt in pyres outside the keep, either as a sign of victory or warning, by rebels clad in protective gear.

    The fall of the "Hanged Man" Keep, so colloquially know as smugglers have been caught and executed at the keep, comes as a shock to many, including pilgrims who travel to the shrine of Helm there to see a relic believed to stem from the Time of Troubles used by the Ever-Vigilant himself. Mercantile interests are viewing the change in hands with guarded optimism._



  • Long time resident Trent Lormain can be seen asking around about these missing people. Asking about usual and unusual hangouts, people they have been seen talking to, non blooded that are out of place in the city. Also asking if they were seen taking possibly a love interest suddenly



  • _Oscuran Guard, Illath Deathsand, has been reported missing.

    His personal belongings are reported to be gone, and he was reported missing whilst off-duty. He is normally a guard around the Temple in the city._



  • Sipping wine at her usual spot in front of the fire Mystic over hears some talking… "how peculiar" she mutters to herself



  • _Rumours spread of another missing person in Oscura, Aldo Westgate, renowned mercenary.

    He was last seen in his room at the Coppers, currently not on a contract, and after not paying his bill for a few days, Black Lotus guards found his room empty and a lot of his belongings left behind… yet no one saw him leave._



  • The rumor of the mysterious disappearance of the Shar prieast reaches the docks. While Mystic is delightfully busy measuring up the ship’s crew for uniforms, she overhears them talking. A bit annoyed over having to quit doing what she’s doing she tells the sailors she has to finish this up later. She leaps off the ship and heads up to the temple to see if she can find out what this rumor is all about.



  • _Lesser priest of Shar, Noam Jherral, has been reported missing.

    The Church is believed to be on high alert, and rumour has it that he has disappeared without a trace._
