New rumours heard throughout Oscura



  • *The Inquisitor Liriana was seen leaving the Temple of Caverns and heading down to the crypts.

    The workers down there state she spent some time sifting through the corpses ready for disposal in the fires. She clearly found the one she wanted and was seen carrying a body wrapped in linen into the Temple shortly after*



  • Activity appears to be humming around the Temple of Caverns. The Inquisitor and Imperceptor Liriana was seen carrying various heavy bundles into the temple and not reappearing for some time. Some say it was bodies of the dead, others rare materials and one rumour was that it was a new statue of Bane



  • Folk report seeing Chaevre' Vaelen sitting in her usual spot in the Shiny Coppers reading a book as usual, though none were able to approach her as the unnatural aura that once surrounded her has become significantly more discomforting to the point that normal people dare not approach



  • Rumour has it that Liriana was seen walking into Oscura one evening. Her armour scorched and a few spikes on her helmbent out of shape. The strange thing is that she stank of brimstone and smoke. Behind her she dragged a sled with a blanket covering the top, whatever was underneath she seemed to want to keep quiet, making her way quickly to the Undercity



  • Anar has left her spot at the inn.... *
    waves goodbye *

    Not long after the Half-orc Tanner, Buurbag, can be seen leading the dead beholders to the morgue to be "put on ice". Then she walks to the library in search of information on the anatomy of beholders.

    Buurbag would find books on aberrations but might find it difficult to garand their anatomy. Being creatures created with unnatural means they tend not to hand the same anatomy as most animals.
    Their outer shell is relatively soft and their bodies seem impervious to any form of magical restriction.
    Curing the hide though isn't overly difficult, similar to curing a beetle or umberhulk shell.

  • A hin gets off the boat from Peltarch, holding a rope that has three dead but floating beholders attached to it. She heads quickly and quietly to the Undercity, where after a brief discussion with one of the guards, she is escorted to the craft hall and back out again, leaving the dead beholders behind.

    Seems someone has commissioned a special work from a half-orc tanner...



  • Recently a number of dark and hooded people, all wearing matching tattered and battered robes have been seen entering and leaving Oscura. Whilst they have kept themselves to themselves, the stench of death and plague has been noted by any who pass to close to them



  • Safiya of Skuld is visible in the taverns and the public library looking to research a puzzle she encountered in Oscura's Crypts.

    It involves 6 thrones and 6 tomes, labelled for the 6 major elements (Life, Negative, Fire, Frost, And... 2 others she forgot)

    Perhaps there is ancient wisdom within!



  • Chaevre' announces she is ready for more enchanting requests. She may be contacted for prices.



  • The dwarf Gibs Skullkrushes is seen approaching people in Oscura with Ears to the Tribunal. With the recent increase in Duergar activity lowering the mine price might get more adventurers able to attack the Duergar and weaken their numbers. ((Who are the Tribunal members atm? I'll PM relevant DMs/players if needed))



  • ... And to Oscura the small group of dwarven stragglers followed the dark figure. All the way to the temple. Inside the temple of the Shadowlord, a sermon could be heard, speaking of the glories of Mask, and the wealth that his worship could provide. It is rumored that those persuaded by the dark priestess's words were then brought into the faith... while any who then refused while in the temple were not seen again.



  • @sickfish - Keira is happy to patrol. ((Or Jasmal, if you're shepherding some lower level people there))



  • @sickfish said in New rumours heard throughout Oscura:

    Gibs Skullkrusher, a Peacekeeper, is heard to be gathering folks for frequent Underdark scouting trips looking for Duergar.

    Buurbag the one-eyed bag merchant offers her spear and services to the blooded patrol
    Him who watches be happy make war on Darky Dorfs... Mine spear and mine blessings be readys, yes.

  • @davidnwn

    Whispers spread to the Banite Devote to Dreadlord Liriana, that a young blooded named Drake Gallion is requesting an audience with her.



  • Rumours circulate that the Dreadlord Liriana has taken a seat on Oscura sTribunal to represent the Black Fists Church



  • A cryer shouts about Duergar gathering in caves and attacking alla round the surface. Particularly the former city of Jiyyd.



  • Chaevre' Vaelen was seen leaving the city via boat, apparently she was to venture through the underdark to a place known as 'Gaunt Town' to see about starting trade
