Gypsy Gossip

Tala speaks around the fire of some dark elf maybe a drow, a mass of spiders and a grey something that was HUGE!
"PETS what the heck does he mean by pets…." grumbles

Rumors spreads of a girl who was seen running through the area covered from head to toe in mud screaming "I'VE BEEN JYNXED!"
According to the rumors, she was wearing only rags and was covered so completely in mud that it was impossible to discern her facial features or hair color, or even her race, only that she was, in fact, female.
When asked what had happened she exclaims wildly:
"I've been JYNXED! I fell asleep with all my belongings. Gold, clothes, weapons, armor, everything! When I woke up I was miles from where I was camping. I awoke in a large puddle of mud. There was a man standing over me dressed in all black. I could barely see his face, but I think he had white hair."
"He said, 'FOR YOUR SINS YOU HAVE BEEN JYNXED!'. Then he disappeared into the darkness."
When asked which way and where, she she vaguely points off into the distance and then runs away. She hasn't been seen since.

_Another ghost was seem walking through the camp. It was followed into the forest by a female knight in blue armor, a woman in dark mail with the look and odor of death about her, and a robed Gold Elven female.
Shortly afterwards the woods were rocked by tremors, and keening howls and flashes of energy could be sighted inside.
The three reemerged from the wood, and shotly after an enormous being of undeath approached the gate. The dark-mailed woman confronted it, and the two exchanged words. It then vanished into the wood, apparently repulsed by some unseen force, or perhaps persuaded to depart.
The three limped back into the camp, badly wounded. They rested a time and then set off to the east.
It is unclear who they were. They do not appear to be Gali, but someone claims to have seen them with Elder Arandor in the Inner Camp._

_Rumours circulate that a rather striking and dashing gambler has taken the Oath to join the Gypsy Camp.
Other rumours seem to say that an annoying, talkative man who is always shuffling cards is being seen around the camp way too often.
The gambling Oath-Taker also speaks of starting up some sort of Gypsy Game Night, for fun and possibly profit._

Olivia has been seen less than usual and keeps to herself and her business even more than before… the only time outsiders can get a glimpse of her is when she buys a combat dummy from Dart and takes it out to practice with her sword ..... also, she seems less confident than ever
-
A not so heated argument broke out by the fires between the two Gali, Rolan and Oreth. Apparently Rolan has gotten quite tired of people preaching to him about his faith and so him and Oreth went to settle their differences outside the camp
Several words were passed between the two, most notably Rolan telling Oreth he shall not abandon his faith and telling Oreth if he wishes to strike him down then to do it now. Oreth was heard saying that he doesn't believe him and shall not fight him until he has proven to him that he truly follows the Black Hand. The matter seems to have been settled for the time being.
After returning to the fires Rolan was seen drinking an abundance of wine and drunkingly walked off into the woods to be by himself glaring at Oreth
-
Devath has been seen taking his belongings and leaving the camp, and hasn't been seen since. To any who made the effort to talk to him, he said that he wants to stay in the Heyokarr camp for a while, until he sorts out a few things. He doesn't know if he'll return to the gypsy camp any time soon, and wishes the Rom and Gali the best of luck.
-
Rumours fly that Oreth, Sy'wyn, and the Gaje Elf Eluriel have been ranging far and wide trying to buy a cow. The reasons why seem to have something to do with dragon feces. The Rom are as confused as you are.

_- Hey, you know what I saw last night?
- What?
- That tribal guy, Dev, dancing and chanting around a fire, just outside the camp. He wasn't wearin' too much, and he was covered in red and blue tattoos.
- What do you think that was all about?
- I don't know. Must be some kind of ritual or something. I watched him for a while and then left. He didn't come back until morning, when I found him sleeping it off by the camp fires.
- Strange.. I'll keep an eye on him.
- Yeah, let's just hope he's not preparing to hunt Rom or something._

::shortly after arthro's leaving the camp, many gali and romani alike noticed fadia, sickened and pale, leaving the camp with Sy'wyn. She returned alone, a few hours later, bloodied, haggard, and quite obviously furious, rambling something about a bear, and malarites::
-
Undead have been spotted in the woods again, and the rumors fly that a large colossal mass of undead flesh appeared shortly after an Elder of the camp showed up at the gates of the spider woods. The mass gave forth a message that it spoke for the high priest Rela, and was seeking his soul, currently in possesion of a demon. The sun rose before more could be said. The Gali were told once again to not forget… the curse is not yet broken.
-
:: it is rumored that two women Gali and a man were seen preparing for a long journey, speaking of going to some far away desert one of the women seemed adiment about going home to free those that she had left behind. It is also rumored that the women left a map to where it is that she is going, and a stone that if it stops glowing will signify that she has died ::
-
Word gets around about some Pelatrch Magistrate that was looking for Dev ((Nars Trader))… and was quite rude about it too. Some twiggy looking blond fellah with a loud mouth on him.
-
Sy'wyn can be seen seeking counsel from Tara, Katya and the King. He is holding a sheaf of papers which he ruffles through as he passes to and from each. Anyone with sharp eyes would notice that three seem to be Peltarch issued arrest warrants, one seems to be someone's oath papers that Sy'wyn has pulled, and the remainder is a long report written in Sy'wyn's own carefully penned hand. He is often heard mumbling something about a "thieves haven" and at one point stops to pen something else onto his report.
//I am on quite often.. catch me IG when you have time and i will happily sit in on an Elders meeting, or else a PM will do fine//
-
Bow can be seen around the fire rambling on about a similar winged wench explained by Elrin. Word has it that the lady peed on a few of the camp memebrs out in the woods, then flew away with an evil cackle. Some also hear about a meeting with a tree lady who appeared after a short battle with some spider-like creatures. Bow also says that the tree lady seemed pretty desperate, and Bow explains that he thinks the driders are moving closer into town, endangering the inhabitants.
-
Since Kaona left Anakore he has not been seen as often in the Camp as before, anymore, yet he still is a common sight at the fires during his off hours from his job in the city. When he show's up, he seems joyous, eager to share a tale or even a song with the locals. It seems life is treating him well.
-
_Arandor and Tala tell tale of a 'winged demon wench' seen in the spider woods… Some believe she was a harpy. They advise travellers to be wary of them, and above all... do not let them them fly above you.
...Several days later, unrelated rumors spread of giant shrieking mushrooms in the camp storage and recently discovered mines... The Rom and Gali are warned to stay clear of them, beetles are drawn to the noise... Fire seems effective._
-
Rumor has it there's been a gay dwarf running around camp lately muttering to himself.

Folks, please try to keep the nature of your posts rumors, not just rehashing of a factual event. Generalize them. They should not be a blow by blow… and they should not be entirely factual. Not to pick on SarahSmiles but to alter her post so that it is suitable for the Gypsy Rumor thread it could read something like this:
Penny and Darryanna were seen having a heated conversation with some gaji they called Vance something-or-other. They even came to blows and afterwards Darryana could be seen yelling at a dwarf (who some recognized as Storn) when he healed the gaji after the battle.
-
//relating to pennys post
_Darryanna came upon the scene late….after Penny had draged Vance away from the fires and he had drawn his sword...darry quickly stepped out of the shadows and tried to place herself between them....she whistled and called her companion down from a limb above them trying to get Vance to leave peacefully
After the breakdown in talks darry sliced Vance down from behind as he tried to escape......vented her anger on storn after he healed vance then followed Vance north after he finally left....confronting Malvado on the way_
