Tavern Rumors of Peltarch



  • _::The Defender Shallyah brings forth her task force to form a line across the street, sorrounding the senate building. Some of the Defenders appear hastily uniformed as they've probably been torn from their families or off-duty day to attend this emergency. They dutifully try to prevent riots from happening by quickly dissuading the most violent individuals and keeping them from harming anyone - including themselves - with exemplary patience and discipline and avoiding arrests whenever possible.

    Sergeant Shallyah herself appears as usual calm and neutral as she reminds the citizens that altering the public order is against Peltarch's law, and they should orderly return to their homes and await for official announcements::_

    EDIT by DM Skippy: Post approved



  • _As word filters through Peltarch that Senator Leaffall has publicly denounced Senator Mariston Thel, the Defenders, and two bardesses Val Kyrie and Lycka Zomsdottir as the hin attempts to overthrow the senate, people begin massing in public areas, calling for "Mad Marty's head, make the loony dead!"

    The Defenders, for their part, don't seem to be inclined to stop them from chanting or gathering, but they do stop them from causing any harm.

    In more sensible quarters, the demand for Senator Leaffall's resignation is made._



  • It circulates in various circles that the bard Bon Ausbourn is offering to assist senatorial candidates in their election campaigns.



  • A sickly plague stricken man was seen escorted to the fest hall by Celia, Rey and Jason, the others notified the town officials, that the hall should be placed under quarentine. Some time later a party moved out west to investigate the horrifying undead plague…


  • Council of Moradin

    The dwarf, who is also dressed in a deep blue and gold patern, looks at the man, and poders if they could form a band or something.

    Quiclky, the thought is pushed away from his mind, only because he needs to speak with Jake about a uniform.

    He follows the man into the building, trying to explain, he needs to see the records of private sessions held almost 7 years back, when Norwick was taken by the Ostromog's forces.



  • ::A resplendent figure in Gold and Blue armour visits the insistent dwarf at the doors, and after listening to his request, indicates that he speak with the guard and invites him to present his concerns to the Senate chambers::


  • Council of Moradin

    The pudgy dwarf known all around as the weave engineer is seem around the Jewel's Senate doors, asking about how and to who he should adress a request about the private meetings held by the Senators.

    It is said, and he stresses that a lot, a matter of the utmost importance.

    Huzzah!



  • Once upon a recent time, there were… two Cecils? Pfah... naaaah. Couldn't be. Could it?



  • ::The Peltarch Defender known by the name of Shallyah was seen leaving hurriedly southwards. As she paced hurriedly from the college and through the commons she appeared to carry with herself a large pack with supplies and several maps rolled under her arm. She rode her fine mare southwards not to be seen ever since, for a couple of tendays now. However, Shallyah's mare is reported to be hitched in Norwick, where a young boy is feeding and taking care of it::



  • Meanwhile, the Order's First Swordarm Ashena Teroldys appeared to be practicing her oratory skills on a small crowd recently… the young paladin talking at such length as to drive a green-panted sailor in a scruffy duster to drinking, and a white armored warrior to snoring unconciousness. A born public speaker?



  • Dwin Dolvak is seen much more often than normal. He spends most of his time with other dwarven members of the community and is frequently seen buying rounds of ales at the city's public houses.



  • Moigan is spending most of his time in the town making conversation with the locals and introducing himself, all the while finding out what topics the people really want the senate to start addressing.



  • Lights can occasionly be seen dancing around the commons?!?! Whats going on!!!



  • "Now we're in for it!" people were heard to say. Bright lights appeared all around the Commons one evening at dusk, accompanied by a great rumbling sound and a shaking of the earth. Bright circles appeared on the ground surrounding the Commons wall, and inside the inner circle of benches where the sundial used to be.

    Several of those who saw it ran around casting defensive spells, alerting guards and closing the city gates. But in the midst of the lights and rumble, a shining figure appeared. Dressed as a celestial, he took the shape of a half-orc. He warned that the wards he had just placed would be their final line of defense. Soon they would need them for an assault was coming.

    The celestial half-orc was cunning and fun-loving. He made the observers guess who he was warding them against. Peltarch Defender Shallyah got it on the first response: Baron Locke!!! After he left, the mage Maria detected the presence of divine magical wards inside the Commons walls. When the undead army of the Baron Locke comes, this will be the place of refuge.



  • _Often times on the night of the full moon, a females voice can be heard singing alongside the lizardmans, sometimes in the noticeable tongue of the dragons, sometimes an angelic voice as she sings in celestial.

    Each morning after, a familiar figure in the colors of the Divine Shield exits the swamps, a sad look on her face as she heads for the Temple to get some sleep._



  • _Anyone who enters the swamps near Peltarch would find them absent of all lizardmen… all but one. He seems to come and go with the winds, and speaks with those who travel through the area, warning them against entering the caves.

    Should any raise arms against him, he simply steps back into the trees and disappears.

    If you go to the swamps on the night of a full moon, you may hear him singing, the sound of his voice echoing along the banks of the Rift River._



  • Rumors spread that the young mage Elessar Winsbane had passed through town walking hand in hand with a ravishingly beautiful half elven scout. They apparently sat in the commons for a while keeping to themselves and left together after a short time.



    • those around would see Arthur in very poor health and condition lead by both Varia and Reynauld Du Luc onto a boat for Norwick, rumor says he was last seen entering the Grapevine inn where the door was locked from the inside by both Reynauld and Varia for his safety *


  • Cheers and loud laughs are heard from within Raul&Marie's appartment. Anyone with a bit of a brain would notice they are celebrating something in there!



  • Rumours go around Peltarch of a Zhentarim raiding party going through the kobolds of all places, and killing or burning everything they could find. Thankfully, swamps are very wet places and don't burn well, so the fire didn't spread, but what could Zhents be doing in Narfell, and in the Kobold caves?
