Tavern Rumors of Peltarch



  • Rumors speak of a treasure hunt to be taking place lead by Cyrian.
    No one knows what the treasure is and there is no map either but anyone who wanted to go find it was told to meet at the peltarch commons until Cyrian returns from his old man rest.

    ((going grocery shopping but treasure hunt will take place in about 45 from the time of this post. Treasure hunt will be in the kuo toa caves))



  • Another day, another glorious adventurers expedition to the… sewers. Allestor "The Slayer" Hollins lead a small party into the smelly below, though what began as a simple quest for garlic seems to have developped into something quite a lot more scary, at least judging by the pale face and wobbly knees of local unarmed fighter Nica Aelthasdottir. A dark cult is mentioned, as is the wisdom of giving scythes a wide berth.



  • Willow loiters around the city for a day or so, her usual care-free skipping replaced by a hobbling sort of walk. Rubbing at sore knees and backside before sprawling out under a tree, she comments out loud while chugging something from a bottle:

    "Bunnies suck hard enough, but those elite trained battle bunnies are just ~vicious~! Kept bowling me over to bite relentlessly with those great big gnashing teeth, evil pink eyes aglow! Big as ponies too, kicked like a mule and screamed like banshees! Beware the Bunny Wrangler, bewaaaare!"

    To what extent the vagrant Windrider is taken seriously is unknown, as is the content of her bottle.



  • Citizens looking at the Commons a day or so ago were suddenly startled by a large booming sound and a rush of wind that seemed to bowl many people down. Standing in their midst was chaotic demigoddess Leanna, a frequent visitor to the Jewell. She warned a band of adventurers that they should not go to the Kobold Warrens because dire battle bunnies were gathering there and preparing an attack on the City. Following another blast of sound and wind, she then disappeared.

    Willow, Elaine, Elvewyn, Shesarai, Gnarl, and Marty disregarded her advice (as she no doubt intended) and promptly headed for the Eastern Swamps to investigate. They returned much later, apparently victorious, claiming that they did indeed encounter an army of viscous dire purple bunnies. The bunnies were all defeated, but their powerful mage wrangler escaped, so it all could happen again some day.

  • @31bac321ef=AubreyMaturin:

    One night recently, several orphan children and their guardian Serena gathered near the Icelake Bathhouse in the Residential District where they were treated to a series of stories and songs. The old elf Raryldor told them long tales about a City Mouse and a Country Mouse, and also the legend of the Snow Queen. A red-haired cleric told them about the Ugly Duckling. Then a hinnish bard sang for them, and danced with a penguin for the longest time while telling a tale about a giant (who stood near and grimaced fiercely). The hin then passed out sweets to all, and the children rushed to hug the old elf and thank him. All agreed that it was a wonderful experience and that it ought to be done again sometime.

    Some folks argue amongst themselves about the identity of said right sized singer. Some say it was in fact a hin, others could swear it was a gnome. Both groups decided to take the argument to the streets where they were promptly told to shut up by Captain Lisa.

  • Guards note that an older fellow passing through Market Gate with a bag of turnips and a bow was inquiring about who might be the current Captain of the Defenders. They share the small tale and laugh about his bag of turnips in the taverns and barracks about town.



  • :: there's a rumour that Chea Allin, low ranking Cerulean Knight is scamming people with false foretells. even Gnomes can be seduced into her 'truths' even if they consider it rubbish. ::



  • There's a nasty rumor going about the residential district that a recent influx of orphans has garnered the need for more willing advocates.

    On the other hand, there's a delightful rumor going about the same district that many of these orphans were recently witnessed being advocated for, treated to stories, and lovingly doted upon by none other than…. Raryldor?



  • An old man wearing practically nothing was briefly spotted in an alley near town hall. Later, he was shabbily garbed and sent south on the river by a one eyed man.

    The next day a dark robed figure was seen escorting this same old man through town. But the old man was no longer shabbily clothed and wore fine looking leather and carried a bow. None of the merchants admit to having seen him, though Kala smirked a bit when asked about him.



  • Near the western gates of Peltarch was a grizzly sight, a loyal guard of the city lying in a pool of blood after being torn into by some manner of beast. Investigators were quick to the scene searching for clues while the body was taken away to be put to rest.



  • A beautiful, wild redhead prances across the city after the celebration of the Night Stalk, stuck with a proud smile in her face as she hums something about the drops fallen from the Moon and a Shard of Selûne. Soon she vanishes through the south gates and into the wilderness.



  • The full moon brought a small crowd of faithfuls to Selûne's shrine outside the Lighthouse temple, where it is said a celestial appeared from above and bright moonfire flared, blessing each supplicant. Joyous dancing rounded the Night Stalk off before the sun reclaimed the sky with dawn's arrival.



  • This year's Neap Tide, held by Istishia's shrine in the docks, proved a joyous event for all, in particular for Estella, initiated into the faith and completing her first Ride, praised be Istishia! The event also saw some rather unusual guests arriving by water, namely two sea elves who brought some just as unusual weaponry with them for a sale. Yet all was not well, as something troubling stirred below - and so a team of volunteers were sent down into the chill waters of the Icelace, returning victorious and grinning, a while later. Popular rumour has it the dashing young Cerulean Jonni Aelthasson beheaded a great shark!



  • Raryldor will quietly, and discretely, check on the elves and do what he can to ensure their well-being.



  • Sirion happens upon the inn, asking about the liberated elves.



  • A mage dressed in a deep red velvet cloak is seen carrying a basket full of bottles of rum. She is leaving from the Mermaid at exact the same time everyday heading towards the docks.



  • _As the sun drops below the horizon one night, the bright pink cloak of the well known Defender Aelthas was seen heading into the Mermaid with a few of the Lighthouse Temple staff at his side.

    A short time later the Temple staff, Aelthas and a small group of robed women left the Mermaid and headed straight for the Lighthouse Temple, all disappearing inside and not coming out.

    Does the pink werewolf have a new harem even at his tender old age… and his wife is allowing it?_



  • Suddenly the Inn of Peltarch becomes overpopulated with female elves. When asked, some will tell the story about being freed slaves from a ship, and that they are waiting for some person to point them to a place they can live at.
    Rumor is also, that far away into the sea, a burning ship could be spottted, and shortly after a large creature "docked" in peltarch ground, dissapearing all of the sudden.



  • Rumours continue to buzz about mysterious body doubles, said to be anything from sheer illusion to monsterous doppelgangers - or the even further remote possibility of everyone and their uncle having an identical twin! One disturbing rumour even claims Guard Captain Lisa herself has an identical double, far less lawful…
