Tavern Rumors of Peltarch



  • Rumor has it that the elf known as Faelar has been seen going inside the orphanage with a bag stuffed with something and coming out with nothing.

    Rumor also has it that, in the swamp, several koblods have been found with their throats cut. There was no sign of a struggle. It looks like robbery was the possible motive.



  • With the success of the first menu during the last season, the young Ilmatarian monk Miala after much experimenting had come up with the new menu with more options, ready to serve to all employees and patrons of the Temple of the Triad, the senate, and with the assistance of the other city cooks, the Peltarch military.

    The breakfast menu includes a savory saffron rice porridge topped with with crispy pieces of salt pork, a poached quail's egg and sauteed celery root slices. For those who must eat on the go, a lightly spiced flaky apple strudel with tiny bits of candied ginger all about it for a more chewy texture contrast as well as offering more play on the tongue could be chosen as well.

    For lunch, coconut curried beef or fowl served mild, spicy, and extra spicy (A waiver must be signed to access the later) stewed with peppers and potatoes served on jasmine rice, or if someone prefers something a little lighter, braised duck wanton soup, with broth made from a stock of braised duck, locally farmed onions and shallots, ginger, and spices; wantons made from thin rice paper squares stuffed with lean locally grown beef and harvested crayfish. Both meals are served with summer rolls, the soft moist rice-paper rolls filled with locally grown lettuce, icelace shrimp and ground cooked wild boar, served with a side of sweet and salty peanut sauce. For dessert, dark chocolate blended with cream cheese sandwiched between two fresh soft ginger bread cookies.

    For dinner, every other night Miala can be seen preparing and roasint a large wild boar, skin crisp and salty on a spit with tender flesh, steamed rice buns cooked in banana leaf filled ground beef, light cheddar and broccoli, fresh rye bread, mashed potatoes, and a gravy made from pork fat drippings and sauteed onions. Desserts include strawberry rhubarb pie, or a refreshing cup of shaved ice topped lychee syrup.

    Often as she can, Miala runs to the city hall and takes the orders of each individual, and delivers the food personally to all members of the senate. Rumors could be also heard that a large plate of apple strudels can often seen being delivered to an especially appreciative senator.

    _A very twitchy elf, dirty and wild looking, was accosted by two legionnaires in the commons.

    …All he had done was introduce himself when asked to.

    Though there were no witnesses, a nearby party arrived during, and fled with one of the attackers using spells of invisibility

    the poor elf wandered off into the gloom again, rambling in broken sentences_



  • Hearing about the food, Hammer gives some thought to enlisting in the Defenders.



  • _As the scents of fresh foreign spices and ginger permeate the air as eastern Kara-turan influenced food seems to float about the city. Rumor spreads of a new cook hired by Sir Roland named Miala, was hired to work for the city of Peltarch as a cook, making meals for soldiers on duty as well as the temple of the Triad. She can often be seen waiting in the docks early in the morning, speaking to the import merchants for the freshest ingredients and produce.

    Menu options for this season (one IRL week) include Savory slathered strips of tender boar meat marinated in a sweet ginger sauce topped with sesame seeds and caramelized onions, with stir fried veggies are served to order mild for most, and spicy for the bold, and -very- spicy for the extremely adventurous.

    For those with more nautical tastes, food from the Wu region is provided, as fresh thin sliced raw pieces of delicate whitefish and freshwater lake salmon are lightly brushed with a small side of something called soy sauce, a salty flavorful sauce made from eastern soy bean extract. The sides served with it include a seaweed salad with sesame oil and white rice vinegar, along with vegetables deep fried and crusted with a flaky thin batter._



  • _Chancellor Biswan of Norwick arrives in Peltarch by boat with a small escort and a herald.

    The group proceeds directly from the docks to city hall._

  • A young elven women could be seen in the Peltarch commons going into a long story of a man with hooks for hands luring her to an abondond ship and attacking her near the docks, when asked for detailed information,other than the hooks, she recounts that he wore only one boot, speaking with a hiss and as soon as the sun rose he ran off screaming , leaving his clothes behind on the ship



  • Darius Durano, once again is seen often in the Docks Districts offering his aid to those who toil with the day to day workings in and around the docks. When he comes accross those who are sick he does what he can to remove sickness from the poor and heal those who are injured.



  • Word spreads of a savage beating and possible cannibalism of a gnome just outside the city. There seemed to have been a fisherman selling scrolls to earn some coin for bread. He knew of a stash of scrolls in which the gnome was interested. However, upon arriving at the spot, the fisherman shows two massive claws that started tearing into the flesh of the young wizard. It wasn't long before the gnome was knocked out and the "fisherman" began to slice and devourer his flesh. If it wasn't for a cleric that happened to be passing by, the gnome may no longer be with us.



  • Early on some mornings Pherdur can be seen heading to the docks district wearing a tunic rather than his usual armour. There he freely aids alot of the dock workers in their daily duties which mainly include hauling ship cargo to or from the boats. His demeanour towards the people at the docks is generally polite, well mannered and helpful.



  • Labur's most recent brew has just came out of the brewery. The critics have claimed it to be his best brew yet! It is a standard ale of average quality with hints of honey. He is seen giving out samples around the commons to anyone interested in trying it.

    //trashed 20 gp for samples



  • Rumor has it that The Simple Merchant Extraordinaire have been sponsoring various games in the Peltarch commons with a high likely hood of people winning prizes. How long these games will last is up to any one to guess.



  • _A great roar rang out from the West of the City shortly before the shadow of great wings passed in front of the moon.

    Another rumour speaks of undead orcs somwehere to the south._



  • _Hammer reports to the guard that he and a group were stalked in the swamps. First by a helmeted man in red-brown clothes who claimed to be there for the "view". Sometime later, they were approached by a helmeted man in black and purple armor – the same man, judging from the voice -- who demanded the group to kneel and give him gold. When the group refused, he turned invisible with an omnious "we'll see".

    Seems he forgot to chuckle darkly on leaving._



  • Rumour spreads of some drunk "goon" killing his friends at the bottleneck alley apartments. Three bodies were found.



  • Ael'Que lets people know he is offering a 100 gold piece reward for anyone who can tell him the last known location or last person seen with Maria. He spreads word of this throught Peltarch



  • _Something seems to have happened at the Gaol recently, the Guard seeming to double in force around it and turning back anyone wishing to enter for a few days.

    Some stories say a prisoner is dead at the hands of the prison Guards, others say Cerulean Knights who were inside suddenly went mad and turned their spells on the Guards and prisoners, other stories say that the prison broke out in a riot and is being contained. Some even whisper about Magistrate Borodin turning all the prisoners to stone as she was seen walking out not to long after it was locked down.

    Whichever story might be right, one thing is certain, the Guard seems to have an increased presence around the Gaol and it doesn't appear as if they are going anywhere, anytime soon._
