::New rumours heard in the Mermaid::



  • Days after the deaths at the watchtower, Dentin is dragged into the city by scouts, looking pale and worn. He is taken to the temple right away. Two days later he again leaves the temple, looking back as his old self.


  • DM

    The Magistrate is seen looking for a defender officer or captains to offer a full report of the death of the defenders at the outpost, and is reportedly highly displeased that their bodies were not recovered.

    "We will not have our defenders re-animated and sent back against up, who is responsible for this mess?"

    Also, he is seen striding about the city speaking to traders and pointing to an entry in an old book, he is also wandering about the city looking concerned for news on Mecizq a cleric of mystra.



  • _A beautiful red haired woman walks into the badger, she can't be more older than thirty winters, infact she looks to be perhaps twenty five or six years of age. She is draped in the robes of the late Syne Bloodmyst and sits down alone in the Mermaid, she stares from a corner table at the innkeep awaiting news to arrive her about those she seeks to hear word from. Ordering nothing but a cheese and fine winter wine she keeps to herself.

    When her eyes catch another looking over to her she offers them a polite smile and raises her cup in cheers_



  • _Rumour quickly spreads about how ghouls attacked the watchtower, and only a handful of Defenders were there to defend it. Those who survived speak of how Sergeant Strauss and a small unit of Defenders were killed within moments by the powerful undead, however no bodies were found afterwards.

    There are some who say that Dentin found a nemesis in the recent undead attacks, this being his second death to the ghouls so far._



  • A familiar sight around the city, the blue plated Cerulean Mecizq is conspicious in his abrupt absence, no word was apparently left of any trip, yet he is no longer standing around the commons or the trade house as he was often seen doing.



  • Rumor has it a ship sank this morning in the harbor. A small merchant ship anchored in open water seems to have just sank with no warning. No survivors or bodies were recovered.



  • Rumor has it it odd sounds have been heard from local citizens homes. Apparently from under the homes. This has caused a bit of a stir and talks of haunted houses run about.



  • Dwin Dolvak, dressed in his finest robes has been asking around the Mermaid for an enchanter that could assist him with a project.

    He makes it very clear that money is no object.

    He also mentions the name Attentus several times, in that someone has said that he would be one possible candidate.

    ((PM if anyone is interested))



  • Shortly after the supper hour one night, Hjoichi Olsen is seen exiting Mariston Thel's abode with a worried look on his face. For the next several days it was noticed that much of his time going between the Order Watchtower and the Town Hall Library.



  • An explosion, large enough to be noticed across the civic district, happened at the Defender HQ one evening. As only Defender personel normally allowed inside the HQ, rumours as to the cause of this explosion fly. Many bring up a possible connection to the explosion that happened in the sewers some time ago.



  • Two armoured figured returning from a kobold expedition can be heard as they pass through the commons, talking on the ghoul fever thats causing issues. Apparently it can strike the living, causing people to slowly turn, while still looking like normal humans, though it would be curable by Daisies magic, and they are heard to remark that any feeling ill should see Daisy for a checkup.

    Following this they vanish into the temple of Tyr and remain for several hours.



  • A young, pretty city elf who goes by the name of Caling is looking for work.
    She claims to be a 'relocation specialist and removal expert'. She can be contacted at Bjornik Halehammer's Locksmith and mechanition emporium where she helps out part-time.

    'Anything considered, except really bad things like killing and stealing, unless it's funny.'



  • Word travels around that the Kuo-Tua are becoming more active outside their caves. According to some people, they have been sending small raiding parties into the pass, but retreat back to their caves if they have the lesser force.



  • Recent events in the crafters hall have left great big holes in the floor. The master crafters seem rattled, ranting on about undead creatures emerging from below. A party of adventurers ventured down into the sewers to investigate the matter and were spotted leaving after a lenghty period of time, all alive but looking much worse for wear. The source of the undead infestation remains as yet unknown.



  • [A young man with light brown hair is often seen in the Peltarchian commons, chatting casually or studying from a small dark blue book, the holy symbol of Mystra embedded on it's hard cover.]



  • _Foilir Dolvak, puts his feet up on his desk and instructs Nor that the Master Smith does not meet with dead men.

    Eating an apple and drinking an ale, he laughs as he prepares to go visit the Stonemasons._



  • Though officially declared dead, the Gondar priest Dentin Strauss walks into the city gates late one evening, looking older and greyer than before, and non too pleased, heading directly to the Defender HQ. In morning, he walks around the city, meeting with many craftsmen and merchants. Apparantly, he is attempting to set up a gathering of the city's workers.



  • Sir Richard Luis is seen leaving the city numerous times to train Squire Frazh. It appears the commute is slightly taking a toll on him for he is spending less time speaking with people in the commons. His dedication to the children is unwavering and is seen still helping with the orphanage. His eyes show of a knight that is tired but his heart and atittude show that of determenation and perseverance.



  • His mental fatigue seemingly passed, Dentin has regained his former dedication, despite an apparant death to a wild animal. More open and social than before, he seems to have found his balance once more.



  • Fairbright Glass, young Imam of Torm, was seen sadly carrying the body of a young woman in from the Western Foothills to Priestess Daisy. When asked he claims to not know the woman but only found her lying in the field, near to the gate. He gathered what he could of her things and holds them in the hopes that someone comes to claim them.
