Tavern Rumors of Peltarch
-
_A rumour about a mutilated and chewed kobold runs around the City of Peltarch.
Some claim that the kobolds have turned into cannibalism, eating their own kin in effort to try and make the race strong with only the best of soldiers. Some speak of hungry travellers, some of dark rituals, some even claim to have seen tribesmen walking about the area in search for food.
Even the physical appearance of the kobold is questionable: Some claim it to be chewed to the bone, some speak of ripped arms and legs while others claim the heart to have been missing. Someone even says that the kobold was drained of all the blood, like a vampire of legends had attacked it.
Whatever is the truth, it is hard to make out from the speakings of old wives and eager young boys dreaming of becoming fearsome adventurers one day._

Rumors swirl of a Fire Giant sighting in the western farmlands.
-
Troff Legion officers General Theaon Thorn and Captain Romulus Grey came into the Peltarch Commons to report a major gnoll ambush on the road through the Nars Pass. Three gnoll witch docters and more than half a dozen diseased gnoll younglings attacked the two Legionaires, but were beaten by some serious spell casting. Theaon and Romulus then recruited Peltarch Defender Shallyah, Swordsman Andrew, and young Elvira for a patrol through the Gnoll woods and den. Young diseased gnolls have continued to congregate outside the woods since then, but at least no more casters were among them.

Rumours has it that Mystic River is descreetly asking around for the location of the Reshnor residence.
-
As the mageling Mystic is quietly resting by the tree in the commons the sundial makes a clicking sound and strange small tin men errupted from it attacking anyone close. With the help of Robyn it could finally be put to an end. What were those things?
-
The red mageling was seen walking through the south gate giggling happy with a huge box of chocolate. Her eyes twinkling, satisfied and obviously suffering from a sugar high, licking her delicate fingers clean from what ever creamy cacao that was left
-
Despite the chaos and tragedy of recent events, some well-known locals look to be in fine spirits. Luke, Sabre, Korlis and the red-clad merchant Scarlet can often be seen conversing, typically taking their business over to the Lucky Ferret. Rumours may spread about a new store being added to the dockside tavern, though clearly it's early days yet.
-
Mystic is seen visiting Vanities and other shops looking to purchase the finest dress coin could buy
-
_Word goes around the Jewel that there are a quartet of new merchants in town, working out of the Seafarer offices. An elven master craftsman, an elven enchanter, an elven potion and comestibles merchant, and an elven clothier and seamstress (hem hem!).
For the moment they seem to be setting up shop and getting to know the city, but when asked they advise that they're in Peltarch for business, and they intend on making gold while the sun shines._
-
_::An exotic visage is spotted once again in the fair city of Peltarch. The crimson Mulhorandi entrepreneur known by the name of Scarlet has returned, and has made mention in mercantile circles that she has brought business opportunities from the City of Shadows.
She appears to be on the lookout for business partners to offer her exotic goods and perhaps venture with in an enterprise or two::_
-
Rumours speak of bright lights and dark fires battling it out in a dramatic show across the Commons, centering on the sundial. The source for the display was a matter of some speculation with the onlookers, some of them travelling below the city looking for answers.
-
Local guards speak of a warrior clad in red and black single-handedly challenging an orc chieftain (said to have been half again as big and twice as strong as the defender) outside the west walls. While strength and tenacity proved in the orc's favour, skill and discipline won the day as the Lady of Norwick stood triumphant over the felled chieftain.
-
Rumor spreads that painbarer Jason Selious has uncovered and reforged the staff of Ilmater along with his companions, when asked though Jason is said to humbly admit that Albryanna deserves all the credit for this last venture and that if not for her, they would have failed.
-
It seems a much sought after treasure was finally found, according to a couple of smug sailors lounging underneath a tree in the commons.
-
Tavern wags have been passing on some wierd rumors in the city the past few days. Something about gold, platinum, mithryl and adamantium ore deep in the Cold Caves, but protected by frost giants and winter wolves. Another rumor says a procession of adventurers carrying three bodies paraded through the Commons en route to the Temple of Triad, where they were met by a winged celestial. No doubt these rumors have been considerably embellished in the telling!
-
A young elven woman, not known of these parts, is seen on a nearly daily basis in the commons engaging almost anyone in conversation providing they can speak elven. Apparently her common is far beneath bad and made all the worse by her very thick accent. Providing one can speak with her she'll engage in nearly any subject though it's quite apparent her eyes glaze over at the mention of politics, though even then she smiles and simply nods politely.
-
Rumors say that on a patrol through the caverns below a strange looking crystal was found. The half Orc tried to chip of a chunk but it was still intact when the venturers left for fresh air
-
The red mageling swaggers (too) into the Mermaid, although this is one quiet and dull evening. A waitress is mentioning the opportunity of business. Mystic quickly finishes her rich, spiced and blood red wine and heads out the door looking for Cray.
-
_Cray swaggers into the Mermaid on a busy evening. With a glass of ruby red wine held delicately in his hand, he works the room.
Cray talks to merchants and well known adventurers, letting it be known he wants to buy large quantities of any potions, scrolls, and magic items. Cray is always sure to mention, that he pays much higher rates than any other merchant._

_Walter's baffling activities continue beyond the walls of Defenders' HQ. Rumor has it that he's been seeing young, lithe women to the upstairs of Peltarch's number one house of ill repute, and keeping them occupied for many an hour. The dissatisfied women that emerge from behind closed doors would at least perhaps be comforted by the coinful gain of Walter's exploits.
Although such women are normally discrete, the rumor emerges that he's been benchpressing young maidens as a part of his new workout routine. It seems that there are few lengths that Walter will not dare to take on a much leaner form – speculation given that this may have something to do with the coming wrestling games at the Lucky Ferret.
Walter remains a baffling enigma of oddness, and awkward habit._
