← Prev: RPM:2 Sorcier Scum or Double Agent |
Starring: 🏹 Ehsan, Hugo, 🐺 Ildefons, 💃 Milady Rosalie
Guest Starring: Zephyrine,
Iosif Kettleblack, Lemuel, Camille, Donat Baguet, Armand Girard
Challenge: Sorcier attack on ships in the dock; Investigating the Ebenese Coins; Is Zephyrine a double agent?
Location: La Magie de Prison, Albatross Point Wharf, The Peasant & Courtesan, Eben Consulate
Date Played: 22 Nov 2016
Explosions at the Albatross Point Wharf
You rock back on your heels from the shock of a thunderclap and a pillar of violet flame erupts from the docks. As you make haste to the docks the streets are in chaos. The young are fearfully running in all directions while the more mature shopkeepers calmly but quickly close shutters and begin loading firearms. Another explosion rocks you, followed shortly by another, with each shock accompanied by a pillar of violet flame.
As you arrive at the docks you discover the burnt body of a Sorcier wizard smoldering in front of a large corpse of a wildblood of burden (an unintelligent wild blood, elephant) and a wagon full of what used to be caged dogs but are now piles of ash.
Further down the docks, a docked ship is bathed in purple flames that are turning orange and red as a natural fire catches on nearby buildings. Silhouetted by the flame are a motley mass of dock workers who are trying to put out the fire but can’t because of several well-placed longarmsmen.
Two more ships are sinking into the sea, one near the docks and another that is further away and barely visible through the smoke and haze of the fires. A soot-covered dockhand rushes you, pointing feverishly in the direction of another ship, and this one has a swirling vortex of runes coalescing above it.
💃 Milady Rosalie: Well, isn't this a site to see. It looks like the Sorcier have decided to really open up on us. It feel like they have gone a bit far, though. Usually they want people left to rule over, and this distraction is too vast for their usual modus operandi.
I know full well my duty is to get to the dock, but there was a boy that got separated from his mother that I had to care for first. I know what I went through when I lost my son, and there is no way I am going to bring that upon someone else.
This wasn't too hard of a task, but it was a bit emotionally draining. It let me get to the ships in time to try and nullify the floating runes above the ships. I had to focus all of my energy into it, and the backblast threw me through the deck into the ships hull. I wasn't injured, but it has been a long while since I've had an effect like that. I hope that my old powers aren't coming back. Curse of Blood's Betrayl, or whatever they called it. I do not wish to see or cause that much death again.
Hugo:
🎲 DM: In the chaos of the docks there was only so much that the characters could do, and so the fire from the explosions burnt down significant portions of the wharf.
The Questioning and Execution of Donat Baguet
💃 Milady Rosalie: The pompous braggart responsible for this appears to be an operative of the Sorcier, acting out of some sort of splinter group or the like. He appears to have some information, but it pretty tight lipped about it. When questioned about Zephyrine, he gave a noticeable tell. I put in the suggestion that Ehsan talk to to Zephyrine. One of them has a soft spot for the other, I'm not sure which. I'm sure there's a joke in there somewhere; if only Hugo were nearby.
It didn't take long, though, for orders to come up for his execution. Ehsan came up the stairs in a hurry, but a bit late, as the guillotine game down on Gahuet, leaving a Donat hole where his neck is. Hah! Puns are never in bad taste if they happen to the truly awful.
Hugo:
Questioning Zephyrine
Hunting with the Ebenese Envoys
💃 Milady Rosalie: Ugh, it looks like I have to spend the evening with some Eben 'Coons. Never trusted them, and when they took our bags to our room, they just stood there with their paws out, like they were expecting something.
There is a hunt going on. Evidently some take on a traditional fox hunt. I suppose there was some joy out of it all, and some of the Wildbloods honestly aren't that bad to be around. I do like the accompaniment of One Tusk at times, and a few here seems as driven as him. Though, I fear, some may be a bit too clever for their own good.
Hopefully Hugo is able to get some good information while we indulge in this activity.
Sneaking around the Embassy
Hugo:
Off Camera
🐘 One-Tusk: The Trade Federation's accountants took a look at their budgets, and decided that they were paying too much for longshoremen, and thus proposed a cut to wages. I had to drop everything and rush to a union meeting- this may become a strike. I hope it does not.
