8/10/15
[20:22] <BradGM> The Party meet Grand Capitulary Stolz and learn that one of the Witch Hunter, a certain Bauer, was arrested by the Watch, having being found unconscious in possession of a forbidden book, the Liber Chaotica.
[20:22] <BradGM> . As the consequences of a guilty verdict could escalate things violently, the Party accepted to help Stolz proved Bauer’s innocence, in exchange of sanctuary at the Temple of Sigmar, including room and board, and a signed document allowing them limited authority to investigate on the Grand Capitulary’s behalf.
[20:22] <BradGM> . After Stolz used his Sigmarite Faith to cure the Party’s wounds, Edgerrin and Siluvaine left the Temple to gather tools and rest, Aithorn slept and Alexi searched the Library for maps and reckoned the book’s origin might be within one of Eastgate’s dens of many and any entertainments. After reporting to Stolz over supper, the Prty made their leave and left for Eastgate. The Trial is in *Three* Days.
[20:24] <Siluvaine> ((What time is it?))
[20:25] <BradGM> ((You ate supper, so I would say 7 PM or so, about 2 hours of sun left))
[20:27] * Siluvaine considers. "Do we have any idea how to prove his innocence? Just because we might find a cult doesn't necessarily mean we'll find some way to prove him innocent."
[20:29] * Aithorn "Maybe he left someone alive who could swear that he wasn't part of the cabal?"
[20:30] <Alexi> "Dot vould not be accepted by de Ulricans."
[20:32] <BradGM> ((Dun dun duuun))
[20:32] <Aithorn> "Would anything short of a miracle satisfy those who do not want to be satisfied?"
[20:32] <Alexi> "Mebbe dey ver schtupid und had a membership list?"
[20:33] <Aithorn> "We won't know unless we look."
[20:34] <Alexi> "Dot iz also true."
[20:35] * Siluvaine sighs and shrugs as they continue on, heading for the Eastgate area. "This is going to be a long 3 days."
[20:35] <Aithorn> "They were careless enough that a lone witch hunter was able to find them in a day and a half presumably without knowing of their existence beforehand."
[20:35] <BradGM> Eastgate is 10, 15 minute away from the Temple of Sigmar, the detours making the walk a bit longer.
[20:36] <BradGM> You arrive in the district near the Royal College of Music (#23)
[20:38] <Alexi> "Vell, now ve look for anyting odd, ya?"
[20:38] * Siluvaine glances around. "Maybe a bit more specific than that?"
[20:39] <Siluvaine> "Do you know any...less than reputable establishments?"
[20:40] <Alexi> "Hy hef not been in dis area before."
[20:41] <BradGM> Bauer was also arrested with a ceremonial dagger with the mark of Khorne; perhaps this could be helpful to remember.
[20:42] <Alexi> "Zomeplace vit pit fighting, or bear baiting?"
[20:42] <Aithorn> "Maybe we could find a bar that serves soldiers? A veterans's club?"
[20:44] <BradGM> You can ask around with gossip+30, since you're in Eastgate after all.
[20:45] * Siluvaine considers and nods. "Maybe you could wave that letter at the watch and get some information?"
[20:45] <Alexi> !dhroll 58
[20:45] <Diceling> Alexi: 42 Success by 1 degree!
[20:48] <Aithorn> !dhroll 29
[20:48] <Diceling> Aithorn: 45 Failure by 1 degree!
[20:49] <BradGM> Alexi, there are 3 fighting pits in Eastgate, 1 was destroyed during the siege, another is closed as the owner left with a free comapny, the last one, The Cock's Den, is onwed by a halfling near the Singing Moon (#24).
[20:50] <BradGM> Aithorn, none of the big, beardy men you approached wanted to talk to no "pansy bow usin' elf."
[20:50] <Alexi> "Vell, ve heff two real options. Dere is vun dot vas closed off a vile ago, und vun dot iz run by a runty."
[20:50] <BradGM> ..much less about a veteran's club.
[20:50] <Siluvaine> !dhroll 73
[20:50] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 47 Success by 2 degrees!
[20:50] <Siluvaine> "Fewer people is better at first?"
[20:51] <BradGM> ((Asking for what Siluvinae?))
[20:51] <Alexi> "Vell, it vould be easier to see if closed vun vas beink used."
[20:52] <Siluvaine> ((looking around for places with weird people hanging around, or odd deaths in the area))
[20:55] <BradGM> You cross some Watchmen Siluvaine and begin talking to them; the district has been calm since the siege, what with the army, milicia and the nobility gone, so apart fomr some brawling it's pretty calm.
[20:56] <Aithorn> "If they were involved with the Grey One, they'd prefer a place where others aren't likely to be. Or they'd use a full common room as it'd be full of victims."
[20:57] <Alexi> "Yah...Hy tink ve should check de closed vun fust."
[20:57] * Siluvaine nods her thanks and heads back to the group. "Yeah, I agree. The watch thinks the District has been pretty calm."
[20:57] <BradGM> When talked about the brawling, they talked of a few spots where the mercenaries and private guards hang out and vent out a little; one is the Sword and and Flail, another is the crossed Axes. Both are closer to the East gate, so a bit lowbrow.
[21:02] <Aithorn> "The empty one first then?"
[21:02] <Alexi> "Yah."
[21:03] * Siluvaine makes a note of the other trouble locations and nods.
[21:04] <BradGM> The closed pit, simply called the Wolf Pit, is a simple building in the middle of th e district, so not quite fancy, but not quite crass. The front door is boarded up with a faded note nailed on the door.
[21:04] * Alexi reads the note
[21:05] * Aithorn will try a perception test to see if there are footprints going in or out or possibly some blood drippings from a broken nose recently
[21:06] <BradGM> Do it Aithorn.
[21:06] <Aithorn> !dhroll 41
[21:06] <Diceling> Aithorn: 85 Failure by 4 degrees!
[21:06] <BradGM> Alexi, the note appears to be written in reikspiel, but you cannot read.
[21:06] <Aithorn> ((lol))
[21:07] * Siluvaine tries not to be superior, but leans forward to read the note.
[21:07] <BradGM> Aithron, you see nothing on the stoneworks.
[21:08] <BradGM> The note explain that the Wolf Pit is closed due to War and that it will open after 'Victory'.
[21:09] <BradGM> It's been there for a while, so it's getting weathered.
[21:09] <Alexi> work issues
[21:10] * Siluvaine shakes her head. "Just says it was closed for war."
[21:10] * Aithorn "I can't tell if anybody has been coming or going. But wouldn't the guards have said something if a new place had recently reopened in the area?"
[21:11] * Siluvaine shrugs. "Maybe?" She glances around and starts searching the area.
[21:11] <Siluvaine> ((looking for blood or anything unusual))
[21:11] <BradGM> Roll it, visual.
[21:11] <BradGM> ((k Alexi))
[21:12] <Siluvaine> !dhroll 60

[21:12] <Diceling> BradGM: 68
[21:12] <BradGM> !dhroll 31
[21:12] <Diceling> BradGM: 88 Failure by 5 degrees!
[21:14] <BradGM> You spend some time looking around the Wolf Pit. Apart fomr a couple of old pool of vomit, you see no sign of blood or indication of an entry, forceed or otherwise.
[21:14] <BradGM> The sun is getting under the ramparts. There's about an hour left of sunlight before it starts to get dark.
[21:14] <Alexi> "So..ve try de Runty's von now?"
[21:15] <Aithorn> "Let's do it."
[21:16] * Siluvaine shakes her head. "One more thing I want to try."
[21:16] * Siluvaine opens herself to the winds of magic, examining the area.
[21:17] <BradGM> Roll magic sense Siluvaine.
[21:17] <Siluvaine> !dhroll 69
[21:17] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 95 Failure by 2 degrees!

[21:17] <Siluvaine> !dhroll 69
[21:17] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 33 Success by 3 degrees!
[21:17] <BradGM> ((curses!))
[21:18] <Aithorn> ((next time Brad is a player, not the GM, he should name a character after Snidely Whiplash))
[21:19] <BradGM> Siluvaine, you oberserve the Winds of Magic. As with most of the winds in the streets of Middenheim, there appears to be a contnual 'magical' snowfall covering everything. The Wolf Pit seems to be getting a bit more snow and you can feel cold winter winds blowing aorund it as well. The onwer must be a Ulrican and pioous, no wonder he left with the army.
[21:20] <BradGM> ((I did one sorta like that in Pathfinder; Montégu Castor, Esq.))
[21:20] <BradGM> ((even had his own carriage and manservant))
[21:21] * Siluvaine shivers and shakes her head. "I don't sense anything unusual. Maybe if we don't find anything else we can try breaking in and checking beneath?"
[21:22] <Siluvaine> "So where to now?"
[21:22] <Alexi> "Yah, but vit no tracks und no sinds uf violence, dis is not likely de place."
[21:22] <Alexi> "Vell, de only udder open place iz de Runty's vun."
[21:23] <Aithorn> "The halfling's inn could work. The guards did mention brawling at two other places, that could be a lead to follow if the Halfling gives us nothing."
[21:24] * Siluvaine nods and lets one of the others get directions to the Cock's Den.
[21:24] <BradGM> The Cock's Den is a few blocks West of the Wolf Pit. It is currently open, with a pair of large doormen informing you, quite politely, of the 5 pence cover.
[21:24] <Alexi> "Yah, yah."
[21:24] * Alexi pays for the three of them
[21:25] <BradGM> Doorman "Enjoy your evening m'lord."
[21:27] * Siluvaine shudders at the thought of what the clientele might be with the doorsmen considering Alexi a lord.
[21:28] * Alexi nods and heads inside
[21:28] <BradGM> THe large building gives actually opened up inside Ulricberg, making it both a cooling place to be in summer, and giving the palc quite the decor. After going down a small flight of long stairs, you arrive in the main area where about half the 30 talbes are occupied. There is a central pit about 10 meters wide in the middel, where people stand, or can pay to get a seat for a fight. A surprisingly tough looking Halfling, he's got a hook instaead of a right hand, is walking behing the long counter to your left, talking to the patrons there.
[21:28] * Siluvaine heads inside to look over said clientel.
[21:29] <BradGM> The patrons appears to be a mix of everyone; some looks like students, other pages, artisans, burghers, trademen..
[21:30] <BradGM> You do see a few other doormen goons here and there; they don't seems to be taking security lgihtly here.
[21:30] <Siluvaine> "Well, if this is the place, I doubt its going to be..easy."
[21:30] * Siluvaine settles down to consider the winds here.
[21:31] <BradGM> Roll it again Siluvaine.))
[21:31] <Siluvaine> !dhroll 69
[21:31] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 33 Success by 3 degrees!
[21:32] * Aithorn orders an ale
[21:33] <BradGM> You get served in short order; 1 pence. The servant lass ask if you'd like to eat as well "Th'boss a halflling wouldn't you know, tastes great!"
[21:34] <BradGM> Siluvaine, the winds appears normal here, but it seems more like it is taking in the city's own influence rather than it's own; The halflings are not a magical race nor one affected by chaos after all.
[21:34] * Aithorn pays for the ale, "Maybe dinner some other time, thank you."
[21:35] <BradGM> Servant "Well, signal me if you need anything."
[21:36] * Siluvaine sighs and shakes her head. "I don't sense anything here, but it could be masked I suppose. And it seems rather..busy."
[21:36] * Siluvaine takes a seat and watches.
[21:37] <Alexi> "Vell...der vos de destroyed place too. But hy thought dot vun vould not be likely."
[21:38] <Aithorn> "It's a good way to do what you want without maiming your friends if you can get others involved."
[21:39] <BradGM> Siluvaine and Aelxi, the servant lass comes around asking if you'd like a drink/meal
[21:39] * Siluvaine gets an ale as well.
[21:39] <BradGM> 1p
[21:40] <Alexi> "No tank hyu."
[21:41] <BradGM> Servant "Oh, here for the fight huh? Well, you'd better think it twice; fight's starts only when the sun's down, so you got a while to wait.
[21:42] <Siluvaine> "Anything unusual with the fights?"
[21:45] <BradGM> Servant "No no, they're still good...just more amateurs."
[21:48] <BradGM> Servant "most of the fighters were in the milicia, and they all got called, but there's always fans to jump in the pit and fight"
[21:48] <Alexi> "Dot's too bad."
[21:50] * Siluvaine nods. "Quite."
[21:51] * Siluvaine pays for the ale and sips it, considering. "Should we see what this place is like after dark, or try the third place?"
[21:52] <Alexi> "Visit de tird place now, mebbe come bek here later."
[21:52] <Aithorn> "We know this will be open for a while yet, and any action won't start for a while. Let's come back."
[21:53] * Siluvaine nods and takes a few more sips before she puts the ale down and stands up. "Alright."
[21:55] <BradGM> THe places Siluvaine heard were a bit south, near the drunken Temnplar (#25), not in the closed zone, but close to it.
[21:55] <Siluvaine> ((we're going to try the destroyed fighting pitfirst I think))
[21:56] <Alexi> ((Yeah))
[21:58] <BradGM> The destroyed fighting pit is within the destroyed and closed off section. you should be able to move around if you're discreet about it.
[21:59] * Siluvaine tries to be as discrete as possible.
[21:59] <BradGM> if you got silent move or concealment, you can move about easy.
[22:00] <Aithorn> ((woohoo))
[22:00] <Alexi> ((yeah. No.))
[22:01] <BradGM> The destroyed fighting pit is just that, destroyed. nothing is left but charred remains of a building surrounding a hole in the gorund.
[22:01] <Siluvaine> ((not me))
[22:01] * Alexi looks for any signs of traffic, or combat
[22:02] * Siluvaine attempts to assense the winds here.
[22:02] <BradGM> The place seems to be devoid of any activity since the siege.
[22:02] * Aithorn does the same
[22:02] <BradGM> Sil, roll it
[22:02] <Siluvaine> !dhroll 69
[22:02] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 96 Failure by 2 degrees!
[22:02] <Siluvaine> ((Bleh))
[22:03] <BradGM> You get strong emotions from the area, as it was the center of the horde's assault on Middenheim; many died here, in great suffering, too recently for you to filther out right now.
[22:04] * Siluvaine shivers and shakes her head. "I can't tell anything here. Too much to filter out, its all jumbled."
[22:04] <Alexi> "Vell....dot vos de last vun on my list."
[22:05] <Aithorn> "Maybe we check out one of the places the guards talked about?"
[22:06] * Siluvaine nods. "Brawling could be a sign. The Sword and the Flail first?"
[22:07] <Aithorn> "One is as good as the other, do we know where it is?"
[22:07] * Elttaes (Elttaes@93.sub-65-239-721.myvzw.com) has joined #shadowrun

[22:09] <@BradGM> Both the Sword and Flail and the Crossed Axes are within 2-3 blocks from you are they are a little lowbrow in terms of entertaiment value.
[22:09] <@BradGM> ((yeah np take your time))
[22:10] * +Siluvaine heads for the Sword and the Flail, glancing around to see if it seems like they're being followed at all.
[22:10] * Elttaes is now known as Edgerrin
[22:11] <@BradGM> Well, it's Eastgate, at sunset in a few, so hard to say who's the shadower and who's the pubber.
[22:13] <@BradGM> The Sword and Flaiul is a simple looking 2-story building of stone and wood, that's only difference with the others around it is the fact that it got a sign with a crossed sword and flail hanging over the door.
[22:13] <@BradGM> ((BRB, oven's beeping))
[22:13] * +Siluvaine glances around and looks to see what kind of people are entering the Sword and Flail.
[22:14] * @Edgerrin after a day of searching finally finds his friends at the Swoed and Flail.
[22:16] <+Aithorn> ((drinking song time! http://www.lspace.org/fandom/songs/wizards-staff-2.html))
[22:16] <@BradGM> You wait a little, lingering around at the corner. You see 4 men, looks like horse escorts or sorts, entering the place.

[22:18] <@BradGM> ((like guards that rides on horses.))
[22:19] <+Siluvaine> ((Ah))
[22:20] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, there is no wind within the building, like Middenheim's magical snow melts away a few inches from the place. Furthermore, thisis not just melting, but more like it's being blown away. You have seen this once before, at Kurdan's tomb in the Darkwald, consecrated to Khorne.
[22:20] * +Siluvaine pauses. "Oh. Well. We should look around before we go in."
[22:20] <@BradGM> ((So, Aithorn, am I to understand that wizards got big dicks?))
[22:22] <@BradGM> ((or just that it' some sory about maigc?..osorta ben drinking today ))
[22:23] <+Aithorn> ((lol, a little discworld bawdy song that's all))

[22:25] <+Aithorn> ((O.o, than it's a comic parody))
[22:25] * +Siluvaine starts moving around the outside of the building and looking for signs of blood or violence, and extra entrances, like doors to a basement or something.

[22:31] * +Aithorn starts looking around the corners of the building
[22:31] * @Edgerrin will be of what help he can
[22:32] <@BradGM> Apart form the main door, there is a back door leading to the backhouse in the small yard out back. There are windwos on the second floor as well, but buildings all around.
[22:33] <+Siluvaine> "It reminds me of the tomb."
[22:33] <+Alexi> "Dot's not goot."
[22:34] <@BradGM> No one sees any blood marks or anything like that around.
[22:35] * +Siluvaine shakes her head. "No, its not."
[22:35] <+Alexi> "Und ve dun know how many uf dem dere are..."
[22:38] <@BradGM> The backdoor suddnely opens! one of the horse escorts goes to the backhouse.
[22:39] * +Siluvaine considers. "Well, that doesn't seem too dangerous for now..."
[22:40] * +Siluvaine heads in via the front door.
[22:41] * +Alexi will follow
[22:41] * +Aithorn goes along as well
[22:42] <@BradGM> The interior is as simple as the exterior. A 6 meter long counter at the far end in front fo rows of beer barrels, and a bare drinking area, devoid of charis or tables. There is a single door to the right of the counter; it must lead to the back door.
[22:43] <@BradGM> There are the 4 horse escorts, 3 other bearded locals, and the man behind the coutner, a greasey-hair man in his 40s with numerous scars on his arms and face.
[22:44] * +Siluvaine avoids trying the winds inside and glances around. "Well," she says quietly, letting the others take the lead.
[22:45] <@BradGM> ((haha))
[22:45] <@Edgerrin> "Drink!"
[22:47] <+Aithorn> "Is there any scumble on tap?"
[22:50] <@BradGM> Owner "We got beers and ales and whisky, if you want that fancy elf stuff, better got up the street a bit missy." *The patrons laughs*
[22:50] <@BradGM> Owner "You should do like th'dwwarf; just drink!"
[22:51] * +Siluvaine gets an ale.
[22:51] <@Edgerrin> "Jus' pour me a pint mate. A big pint!"
[22:51] * +Aithorn gets an ale as well
[22:52] <@BradGM> It's a pence a pint
[22:52] <@BradGM> Needless to say, Edgerrin gets his first.
[22:52] <@Edgerrin> "Thank ye my good man."
[22:54] * @Edgerrin pays the man and tips him an extra pence.
[22:55] <@BradGM> Owner "Thank ,ye for th'patronage. I saw a few of you in my time, but never with elves. You must be desperate somethin' rare."
[22:55] * +Siluvaine sips her drink and glances at Alexi. "You should try going through the door, see what's through there," she says quietly.
[22:56] * @Edgerrin chuckles, 1"Elves be not all bad."
[22:56] * @Edgerrin winks at Sil
[22:56] * +Alexi will get up and stretch before heading to the back door
[22:59] <@BradGM> Alexi, the door gives into a staircase to your right that goes up and down and to your left is the back door.
[22:59] <@BradGM> Owner "Bah..Never saw much of those, butt they' don't stirke me as tough.*&*
[23:00] <+Alexi> hmm...do the stairs look like they creak?
[23:01] * +Siluvaine refuses to comment as she takes a small sip.
[23:01] <@BradGM> They are made of wood..so hard to say...maybe?
[23:01] <+Alexi> me will take the stairs down then
[23:02] <+Alexi> err

[23:03] <+Alexi> ((Thought I updated my sheet online. Should be 42. Oh well))
[23:03] * +Alexi looks around
[23:03] <@BradGM> The basement is carved into the mountain stone. This is where the owner keeps his barrels of drinks and his empty ones are also piled here. Roll perception or search.

[23:04] <@BradGM> ((pff!))
[23:04] <+Alexi> so. yeah. I'll take that :)
[23:05] <@BradGM> While looking around, you notice that there is a bit of blood on an empty barrel. Looking further, you can see a faith light coming from under the lot. They are positioned to hide a secret passage further within the Ulricberg.
[23:06] * +Alexi quietly moves some of the barrels
[23:06] <@BradGM> ((You got concealment?))
[23:07] <@BradGM> ((Or silent move?))

[23:11] <@BradGM> You mocve the empty barrels Alexi, but you do rub over the stone a few times. You can see shaodws moving in front of the light coming from below, down past the 6 foot ladder and to your left and out of direct view.
[23:11] * +Alexi pauses to see if they come forwards
[23:12] <@BradGM> They do not, but you are certain that they are expecting you.
[23:13] * +Alexi will head back the way he came then

[23:16] <+Alexi> "Der iz a tunnel in der beer cellar. Hy tink dey iz expecting me."
[23:16] * +Siluvaine looks around. "Do something now about it, or wait till later?" she asks quietly.
[23:17] <+Alexi> "Dot depends. Dey could run."
[23:18] <+Aithorn> "They are on alert, we can't take the chance that they could run. We'd never find them in 3 days."
[23:19] <+Siluvaine> ((how many are in the bar?))
[23:19] <@BradGM> ((7 patrons and the owner.))
[23:20] <@BradGM> ((For now; the sun is setting, so the night's still young.))
[23:20] <+Siluvaine> "Maybe we can get some watch here first? If the patrons help them..."
[23:24] <@BradGM> ((It's almost 11:30..ok it we stop it here for tonihgt?))
[23:24] <+Aithorn> "Or just go down and then sneak out the side))
[23:26] <+Siluvaine> ((sounds good. Can do the fight next week))
[23:26] <@Edgerrin> ((sounds good))
[23:26] <@BradGM> *End of Session*
[20:22] <BradGM> The Party meet Grand Capitulary Stolz and learn that one of the Witch Hunter, a certain Bauer, was arrested by the Watch, having being found unconscious in possession of a forbidden book, the Liber Chaotica.
[20:22] <BradGM> . As the consequences of a guilty verdict could escalate things violently, the Party accepted to help Stolz proved Bauer’s innocence, in exchange of sanctuary at the Temple of Sigmar, including room and board, and a signed document allowing them limited authority to investigate on the Grand Capitulary’s behalf.
[20:22] <BradGM> . After Stolz used his Sigmarite Faith to cure the Party’s wounds, Edgerrin and Siluvaine left the Temple to gather tools and rest, Aithorn slept and Alexi searched the Library for maps and reckoned the book’s origin might be within one of Eastgate’s dens of many and any entertainments. After reporting to Stolz over supper, the Prty made their leave and left for Eastgate. The Trial is in *Three* Days.
[20:24] <Siluvaine> ((What time is it?))
[20:25] <BradGM> ((You ate supper, so I would say 7 PM or so, about 2 hours of sun left))
[20:27] * Siluvaine considers. "Do we have any idea how to prove his innocence? Just because we might find a cult doesn't necessarily mean we'll find some way to prove him innocent."
[20:29] * Aithorn "Maybe he left someone alive who could swear that he wasn't part of the cabal?"
[20:30] <Alexi> "Dot vould not be accepted by de Ulricans."
[20:32] <BradGM> ((Dun dun duuun))
[20:32] <Aithorn> "Would anything short of a miracle satisfy those who do not want to be satisfied?"
[20:32] <Alexi> "Mebbe dey ver schtupid und had a membership list?"
[20:33] <Aithorn> "We won't know unless we look."
[20:34] <Alexi> "Dot iz also true."
[20:35] * Siluvaine sighs and shrugs as they continue on, heading for the Eastgate area. "This is going to be a long 3 days."
[20:35] <Aithorn> "They were careless enough that a lone witch hunter was able to find them in a day and a half presumably without knowing of their existence beforehand."
[20:35] <BradGM> Eastgate is 10, 15 minute away from the Temple of Sigmar, the detours making the walk a bit longer.
[20:36] <BradGM> You arrive in the district near the Royal College of Music (#23)
[20:38] <Alexi> "Vell, now ve look for anyting odd, ya?"
[20:38] * Siluvaine glances around. "Maybe a bit more specific than that?"
[20:39] <Siluvaine> "Do you know any...less than reputable establishments?"
[20:40] <Alexi> "Hy hef not been in dis area before."
[20:41] <BradGM> Bauer was also arrested with a ceremonial dagger with the mark of Khorne; perhaps this could be helpful to remember.
[20:42] <Alexi> "Zomeplace vit pit fighting, or bear baiting?"
[20:42] <Aithorn> "Maybe we could find a bar that serves soldiers? A veterans's club?"
[20:44] <BradGM> You can ask around with gossip+30, since you're in Eastgate after all.
[20:45] * Siluvaine considers and nods. "Maybe you could wave that letter at the watch and get some information?"
[20:45] <Alexi> !dhroll 58
[20:45] <Diceling> Alexi: 42 Success by 1 degree!
[20:48] <Aithorn> !dhroll 29
[20:48] <Diceling> Aithorn: 45 Failure by 1 degree!
[20:49] <BradGM> Alexi, there are 3 fighting pits in Eastgate, 1 was destroyed during the siege, another is closed as the owner left with a free comapny, the last one, The Cock's Den, is onwed by a halfling near the Singing Moon (#24).
[20:50] <BradGM> Aithorn, none of the big, beardy men you approached wanted to talk to no "pansy bow usin' elf."
[20:50] <Alexi> "Vell, ve heff two real options. Dere is vun dot vas closed off a vile ago, und vun dot iz run by a runty."
[20:50] <BradGM> ..much less about a veteran's club.

[20:50] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 47 Success by 2 degrees!
[20:50] <Siluvaine> "Fewer people is better at first?"
[20:51] <BradGM> ((Asking for what Siluvinae?))
[20:51] <Alexi> "Vell, it vould be easier to see if closed vun vas beink used."
[20:52] <Siluvaine> ((looking around for places with weird people hanging around, or odd deaths in the area))
[20:55] <BradGM> You cross some Watchmen Siluvaine and begin talking to them; the district has been calm since the siege, what with the army, milicia and the nobility gone, so apart fomr some brawling it's pretty calm.
[20:56] <Aithorn> "If they were involved with the Grey One, they'd prefer a place where others aren't likely to be. Or they'd use a full common room as it'd be full of victims."
[20:57] <Alexi> "Yah...Hy tink ve should check de closed vun fust."
[20:57] * Siluvaine nods her thanks and heads back to the group. "Yeah, I agree. The watch thinks the District has been pretty calm."
[20:57] <BradGM> When talked about the brawling, they talked of a few spots where the mercenaries and private guards hang out and vent out a little; one is the Sword and and Flail, another is the crossed Axes. Both are closer to the East gate, so a bit lowbrow.
[21:02] <Aithorn> "The empty one first then?"
[21:02] <Alexi> "Yah."
[21:03] * Siluvaine makes a note of the other trouble locations and nods.
[21:04] <BradGM> The closed pit, simply called the Wolf Pit, is a simple building in the middle of th e district, so not quite fancy, but not quite crass. The front door is boarded up with a faded note nailed on the door.
[21:04] * Alexi reads the note
[21:05] * Aithorn will try a perception test to see if there are footprints going in or out or possibly some blood drippings from a broken nose recently
[21:06] <BradGM> Do it Aithorn.
[21:06] <Aithorn> !dhroll 41
[21:06] <Diceling> Aithorn: 85 Failure by 4 degrees!
[21:06] <BradGM> Alexi, the note appears to be written in reikspiel, but you cannot read.
[21:06] <Aithorn> ((lol))
[21:07] * Siluvaine tries not to be superior, but leans forward to read the note.
[21:07] <BradGM> Aithron, you see nothing on the stoneworks.
[21:08] <BradGM> The note explain that the Wolf Pit is closed due to War and that it will open after 'Victory'.
[21:09] <BradGM> It's been there for a while, so it's getting weathered.
[21:09] <Alexi> work issues
[21:10] * Siluvaine shakes her head. "Just says it was closed for war."
[21:10] * Aithorn "I can't tell if anybody has been coming or going. But wouldn't the guards have said something if a new place had recently reopened in the area?"
[21:11] * Siluvaine shrugs. "Maybe?" She glances around and starts searching the area.
[21:11] <Siluvaine> ((looking for blood or anything unusual))
[21:11] <BradGM> Roll it, visual.

[21:14] <BradGM> You spend some time looking around the Wolf Pit. Apart fomr a couple of old pool of vomit, you see no sign of blood or indication of an entry, forceed or otherwise.
[21:14] <BradGM> The sun is getting under the ramparts. There's about an hour left of sunlight before it starts to get dark.
[21:14] <Alexi> "So..ve try de Runty's von now?"
[21:15] <Aithorn> "Let's do it."
[21:16] * Siluvaine shakes her head. "One more thing I want to try."
[21:16] * Siluvaine opens herself to the winds of magic, examining the area.
[21:17] <BradGM> Roll magic sense Siluvaine.

[21:18] <Aithorn> ((next time Brad is a player, not the GM, he should name a character after Snidely Whiplash))
[21:19] <BradGM> Siluvaine, you oberserve the Winds of Magic. As with most of the winds in the streets of Middenheim, there appears to be a contnual 'magical' snowfall covering everything. The Wolf Pit seems to be getting a bit more snow and you can feel cold winter winds blowing aorund it as well. The onwer must be a Ulrican and pioous, no wonder he left with the army.
[21:20] <BradGM> ((I did one sorta like that in Pathfinder; Montégu Castor, Esq.))
[21:20] <BradGM> ((even had his own carriage and manservant))
[21:21] * Siluvaine shivers and shakes her head. "I don't sense anything unusual. Maybe if we don't find anything else we can try breaking in and checking beneath?"
[21:22] <Siluvaine> "So where to now?"
[21:22] <Alexi> "Yah, but vit no tracks und no sinds uf violence, dis is not likely de place."
[21:22] <Alexi> "Vell, de only udder open place iz de Runty's vun."
[21:23] <Aithorn> "The halfling's inn could work. The guards did mention brawling at two other places, that could be a lead to follow if the Halfling gives us nothing."
[21:24] * Siluvaine nods and lets one of the others get directions to the Cock's Den.
[21:24] <BradGM> The Cock's Den is a few blocks West of the Wolf Pit. It is currently open, with a pair of large doormen informing you, quite politely, of the 5 pence cover.
[21:24] <Alexi> "Yah, yah."
[21:24] * Alexi pays for the three of them
[21:25] <BradGM> Doorman "Enjoy your evening m'lord."
[21:27] * Siluvaine shudders at the thought of what the clientele might be with the doorsmen considering Alexi a lord.
[21:28] * Alexi nods and heads inside
[21:28] <BradGM> THe large building gives actually opened up inside Ulricberg, making it both a cooling place to be in summer, and giving the palc quite the decor. After going down a small flight of long stairs, you arrive in the main area where about half the 30 talbes are occupied. There is a central pit about 10 meters wide in the middel, where people stand, or can pay to get a seat for a fight. A surprisingly tough looking Halfling, he's got a hook instaead of a right hand, is walking behing the long counter to your left, talking to the patrons there.
[21:28] * Siluvaine heads inside to look over said clientel.
[21:29] <BradGM> The patrons appears to be a mix of everyone; some looks like students, other pages, artisans, burghers, trademen..
[21:30] <BradGM> You do see a few other doormen goons here and there; they don't seems to be taking security lgihtly here.
[21:30] <Siluvaine> "Well, if this is the place, I doubt its going to be..easy."
[21:30] * Siluvaine settles down to consider the winds here.
[21:31] <BradGM> Roll it again Siluvaine.))
[21:31] <Siluvaine> !dhroll 69
[21:31] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 33 Success by 3 degrees!
[21:32] * Aithorn orders an ale
[21:33] <BradGM> You get served in short order; 1 pence. The servant lass ask if you'd like to eat as well "Th'boss a halflling wouldn't you know, tastes great!"
[21:34] <BradGM> Siluvaine, the winds appears normal here, but it seems more like it is taking in the city's own influence rather than it's own; The halflings are not a magical race nor one affected by chaos after all.
[21:34] * Aithorn pays for the ale, "Maybe dinner some other time, thank you."
[21:35] <BradGM> Servant "Well, signal me if you need anything."
[21:36] * Siluvaine sighs and shakes her head. "I don't sense anything here, but it could be masked I suppose. And it seems rather..busy."
[21:36] * Siluvaine takes a seat and watches.
[21:37] <Alexi> "Vell...der vos de destroyed place too. But hy thought dot vun vould not be likely."
[21:38] <Aithorn> "It's a good way to do what you want without maiming your friends if you can get others involved."
[21:39] <BradGM> Siluvaine and Aelxi, the servant lass comes around asking if you'd like a drink/meal
[21:39] * Siluvaine gets an ale as well.
[21:39] <BradGM> 1p
[21:40] <Alexi> "No tank hyu."
[21:41] <BradGM> Servant "Oh, here for the fight huh? Well, you'd better think it twice; fight's starts only when the sun's down, so you got a while to wait.
[21:42] <Siluvaine> "Anything unusual with the fights?"
[21:45] <BradGM> Servant "No no, they're still good...just more amateurs."
[21:48] <BradGM> Servant "most of the fighters were in the milicia, and they all got called, but there's always fans to jump in the pit and fight"
[21:48] <Alexi> "Dot's too bad."
[21:50] * Siluvaine nods. "Quite."
[21:51] * Siluvaine pays for the ale and sips it, considering. "Should we see what this place is like after dark, or try the third place?"
[21:52] <Alexi> "Visit de tird place now, mebbe come bek here later."
[21:52] <Aithorn> "We know this will be open for a while yet, and any action won't start for a while. Let's come back."
[21:53] * Siluvaine nods and takes a few more sips before she puts the ale down and stands up. "Alright."
[21:55] <BradGM> THe places Siluvaine heard were a bit south, near the drunken Temnplar (#25), not in the closed zone, but close to it.
[21:55] <Siluvaine> ((we're going to try the destroyed fighting pitfirst I think))
[21:56] <Alexi> ((Yeah))
[21:58] <BradGM> The destroyed fighting pit is within the destroyed and closed off section. you should be able to move around if you're discreet about it.
[21:59] * Siluvaine tries to be as discrete as possible.
[21:59] <BradGM> if you got silent move or concealment, you can move about easy.
[22:00] <Aithorn> ((woohoo))
[22:00] <Alexi> ((yeah. No.))
[22:01] <BradGM> The destroyed fighting pit is just that, destroyed. nothing is left but charred remains of a building surrounding a hole in the gorund.
[22:01] <Siluvaine> ((not me))
[22:01] * Alexi looks for any signs of traffic, or combat
[22:02] * Siluvaine attempts to assense the winds here.
[22:02] <BradGM> The place seems to be devoid of any activity since the siege.
[22:02] * Aithorn does the same
[22:02] <BradGM> Sil, roll it

[22:03] <BradGM> You get strong emotions from the area, as it was the center of the horde's assault on Middenheim; many died here, in great suffering, too recently for you to filther out right now.
[22:04] * Siluvaine shivers and shakes her head. "I can't tell anything here. Too much to filter out, its all jumbled."
[22:04] <Alexi> "Vell....dot vos de last vun on my list."
[22:05] <Aithorn> "Maybe we check out one of the places the guards talked about?"
[22:06] * Siluvaine nods. "Brawling could be a sign. The Sword and the Flail first?"
[22:07] <Aithorn> "One is as good as the other, do we know where it is?"

[22:09] <@BradGM> ((yeah np take your time))
[22:10] * +Siluvaine heads for the Sword and the Flail, glancing around to see if it seems like they're being followed at all.
[22:10] * Elttaes is now known as Edgerrin
[22:11] <@BradGM> Well, it's Eastgate, at sunset in a few, so hard to say who's the shadower and who's the pubber.
[22:13] <@BradGM> The Sword and Flaiul is a simple looking 2-story building of stone and wood, that's only difference with the others around it is the fact that it got a sign with a crossed sword and flail hanging over the door.
[22:13] <@BradGM> ((BRB, oven's beeping))
[22:13] * +Siluvaine glances around and looks to see what kind of people are entering the Sword and Flail.
[22:14] * @Edgerrin after a day of searching finally finds his friends at the Swoed and Flail.
[22:16] <+Aithorn> ((drinking song time! http://www.lspace.org/fandom/songs/wizards-staff-2.html))

[22:19] <+Siluvaine> ((Ah))
[22:20] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, there is no wind within the building, like Middenheim's magical snow melts away a few inches from the place. Furthermore, thisis not just melting, but more like it's being blown away. You have seen this once before, at Kurdan's tomb in the Darkwald, consecrated to Khorne.
[22:20] * +Siluvaine pauses. "Oh. Well. We should look around before we go in."
[22:20] <@BradGM> ((So, Aithorn, am I to understand that wizards got big dicks?))

[22:31] * @Edgerrin will be of what help he can
[22:32] <@BradGM> Apart form the main door, there is a back door leading to the backhouse in the small yard out back. There are windwos on the second floor as well, but buildings all around.
[22:33] <+Siluvaine> "It reminds me of the tomb."
[22:33] <+Alexi> "Dot's not goot."

[22:41] * +Alexi will follow
[22:41] * +Aithorn goes along as well
[22:42] <@BradGM> The interior is as simple as the exterior. A 6 meter long counter at the far end in front fo rows of beer barrels, and a bare drinking area, devoid of charis or tables. There is a single door to the right of the counter; it must lead to the back door.
[22:43] <@BradGM> There are the 4 horse escorts, 3 other bearded locals, and the man behind the coutner, a greasey-hair man in his 40s with numerous scars on his arms and face.
[22:44] * +Siluvaine avoids trying the winds inside and glances around. "Well," she says quietly, letting the others take the lead.

[22:52] <@BradGM> Needless to say, Edgerrin gets his first.
[22:52] <@Edgerrin> "Thank ye my good man."
[22:54] * @Edgerrin pays the man and tips him an extra pence.
[22:55] <@BradGM> Owner "Thank ,ye for th'patronage. I saw a few of you in my time, but never with elves. You must be desperate somethin' rare."
[22:55] * +Siluvaine sips her drink and glances at Alexi. "You should try going through the door, see what's through there," she says quietly.
[22:56] * @Edgerrin chuckles, 1"Elves be not all bad."
[22:56] * @Edgerrin winks at Sil
[22:56] * +Alexi will get up and stretch before heading to the back door
[22:59] <@BradGM> Alexi, the door gives into a staircase to your right that goes up and down and to your left is the back door.
[22:59] <@BradGM> Owner "Bah..Never saw much of those, butt they' don't stirke me as tough.*&*
[23:00] <+Alexi> hmm...do the stairs look like they creak?
[23:01] * +Siluvaine refuses to comment as she takes a small sip.
[23:01] <@BradGM> They are made of wood..so hard to say...maybe?
[23:01] <+Alexi> me will take the stairs down then
[23:02] <+Alexi> err
[23:02] * +Alexi will take the stairs down then
[23:02] <@BradGM> Roll agility.
[23:02] <@BradGM> !dhroll 32
[23:02] <Diceling> BradGM: 2 Success by 3 degrees!
[23:02] <@BradGM> You creep down the stairs without a sound.
[23:03] <+Alexi> ((Thought I updated my sheet online. Should be 42. Oh well))
[23:03] * +Alexi looks around
[23:03] <@BradGM> The basement is carved into the mountain stone. This is where the owner keeps his barrels of drinks and his empty ones are also piled here. Roll perception or search.
[23:04] <@BradGM> !dhroll 31
[23:04] <Diceling> BradGM: 7 Success by 2 degrees!
[23:04] <@BradGM> ((pff!))
[23:04] <+Alexi> so. yeah. I'll take that :)
[23:05] <@BradGM> While looking around, you notice that there is a bit of blood on an empty barrel. Looking further, you can see a faith light coming from under the lot. They are positioned to hide a secret passage further within the Ulricberg.
[23:06] * +Alexi quietly moves some of the barrels
[23:06] <@BradGM> ((You got concealment?))
[23:07] <@BradGM> ((Or silent move?))
[23:07] <+Alexi> ((nope!))
[23:07] <+Alexi> ((My skill selection is the suck))
[23:07] <@BradGM> ((That would be 16%))
[23:07] <@BradGM> ((Still wanna roll?))
[23:08] <@BradGM> ((I suppose so...))
[23:08] <@BradGM> !dhroll 16
[23:08] <Diceling> BradGM: 37 Failure by 2 degrees!
[23:08] <@BradGM> ((Fate?))
[23:08] <+Alexi> ((yeah))
[23:08] <+Alexi> !dhroll 16
[23:08] <Diceling> Alexi: 64 Failure by 4 degrees!
[23:08] <+Alexi> pfft
[23:09] <@BradGM> !dhroll 67
[23:09] <Diceling> BradGM: 52 Success by 1 degree!
[23:09] <@BradGM> !dhroll 67
[23:09] <Diceling> BradGM: 84 Failure by 1 degree!
[23:09] <@BradGM> !dhroll 25
[23:09] <Diceling> BradGM: 43 Failure by 1 degree!
[23:09] <@BradGM> !dhroll 25
[23:09] <Diceling> BradGM: 49 Failure by 2 degrees!
[23:11] <@BradGM> You mocve the empty barrels Alexi, but you do rub over the stone a few times. You can see shaodws moving in front of the light coming from below, down past the 6 foot ladder and to your left and out of direct view.
[23:11] * +Alexi pauses to see if they come forwards
[23:12] <@BradGM> They do not, but you are certain that they are expecting you.
[23:13] * +Alexi will head back the way he came then
[23:15] <@BradGM> Roll agility again, +30 due to your knowledge of the stairs.
[23:15] <+Alexi> !dhroll 72
[23:15] <Diceling> Alexi: 33 Success by 3 degrees!
[23:15] <@BradGM> You get back up the stairs and into the bar area like nothing happened.
[23:15] * +Alexi will sit back down
[23:16] <+Alexi> "Der iz a tunnel in der beer cellar. Hy tink dey iz expecting me."
[23:16] * +Siluvaine looks around. "Do something now about it, or wait till later?" she asks quietly.
[23:17] <+Alexi> "Dot depends. Dey could run."
[23:18] <+Aithorn> "They are on alert, we can't take the chance that they could run. We'd never find them in 3 days."
[23:19] <+Siluvaine> ((how many are in the bar?))
[23:19] <@BradGM> ((7 patrons and the owner.))
[23:20] <@BradGM> ((For now; the sun is setting, so the night's still young.))
[23:20] <+Siluvaine> "Maybe we can get some watch here first? If the patrons help them..."
[23:24] <@BradGM> ((It's almost 11:30..ok it we stop it here for tonihgt?))
[23:24] <+Aithorn> "Or just go down and then sneak out the side))
[23:26] <+Siluvaine> ((sounds good. Can do the fight next week))
[23:26] <@Edgerrin> ((sounds good))
[23:26] <@BradGM> *End of Session*
