[20:23] <@BradGM> Planning for tomorrow, the Party then took common rooms, except Siluvaine, and slept at the Happy Bear. Unfortunately, Aithorn and Alexi were victims of a robbery, as a few Crowns were missing off their purse the next morning. Starting their research near the Gunnery School, just as Gunpowder Week began in celebration, they learned of the whereabouts of Gerlach Baer, who is spending his days since his return at the Blind Piglet, a crummy tavern in Shantytown. Ulrich left the party again to follow a job offering on a large Oak in the middle of the Reikplatz about “big rats” that ate a whole ‘team’ send to kill them. Fearing Skavens, he only found a run-down tavern infested by mean rats that killed a couple of cats.
[20:23] <@BradGM> . Meanwhile, the Nuln officer was found drunk, but it was easy to get his to speak, costing only a few pints. The Flogged man explained that he and his unit were guarding the supply routes until they were attacked by Beastsmen. Baer claimed he was victim of Dark Magic that saw him run away and his unit was mostly killed off. Still, he was captured, arrested and flogged for cowardness before returning to Nuln, disgraced and renounced by his family and peers.
[20:23] <@BradGM> . He stated that he never went near St-Abelard, not even knowing the place, and that he sold his Arming Sword to a man for a few coins for some drinks. But not all was lost, he did informed the Party about the third officer, Rolf Vogt, who has a good reputation for his actions in the War. His father, Lord Randolf Vogt, was a former advisor to the Countess until he lost his position for unknown reasons to Baer. Both men are residing at the Vogt ancenstral home in the Heart of Altestadt, the Old City, home of Nuln’s richest and prominent citizens.
[20:23] <@BradGM> Time is about noon-ish, and you're near the Blind Piglet in Shantytown.

[20:28] * +Aithorn glances up at the thin strip of sky visible between irregular rooftops, "We'll never know if we don't ask. Where is the Old City?"

[20:42] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, you're told that it is the part of Nuln past the inner wall. Nobles, rich merchants (in the Kaufman Districts) and those close to the Countess live there. There is also the Temple Quarter there.
[20:44] <@BradGM> You also learn that there is a 1 penny tax per leg when you pass the inner wall.
[20:44] * +Siluvaine sighs and rolls her eyes at the cost and starts heading for the inner wall.

[20:45] <@BradGM> You keep going North and enter Weston. It is the middle class quarter of the City, and life seems to be rather good here. Sure the house and things are covered in a thin black dust, but there are actualy parks, and chidlren's play gorunds as well.

[20:49] <@BradGM> Edgerrin, you check in the garbage filled alleys of the city, but find no wheelchair unfortunately, and can't con your way out of the leg tax.
[20:49] * @Edgerrin pays the two pennies grumbleing something about taxing the working man to death.
[20:50] * +Alexi pays without complaint
[20:51] <@BradGM> You are in the Temple Quarter, surrounded by both splendor and grace. The quarter is slightly less busy than the others, as most Faith seems Gunpowder week as a week of debauchery and excess.
[20:51] <@BradGM> ((Alexi does it like a MAN))
[20:52] <@BradGM> Still, it is packed with the faithful and those seeking knowledge and serenity during a hecktic festival.
[20:52] <+Siluvaine> ((can I get an idea of just how explosive the petard I got from the kid is?))
[20:52] * +Ulrich just pays the tax and keeps walking
[20:52] * +Siluvaine continues on, looking for information on Vogt's house.

[20:57] <@BradGM> Vogt's house is localed in the heart of the Quarter. It is a one story building that occupied half of it's own block; a quarter the House, and the other quarter a small gardenbackyard. You also learn that he ued to live higher up the Hill, nearer to the Palace, but he recently moved to his ansentral home, after having his fall form grace with the Countness, as he took too long to build the Magnus Weapon.

[21:09] <@BradGM> The Gantry is well furshined with nice carpets on the floor and walls. You wait for 5 minutes until the Servant comes back "Please follow me into the boudoir."
[21:10] * +Siluvaine nods and steps inside, following the Servant when he returns.
[21:11] <+Ulrich> (YES! found two new horus heresy audio books! score!)
[21:13] <@BradGM> You are taken into a small well decorated salon with rather old, but quite sturdy and servicable furniture. There, a man in his late 20s/early 30 rise up form his seat. He's got long brown hair down to his shoulders, a rather good physique and wear light clothing of top quality in black, Nuln's official colour.
[21:13] <@BradGM> Roft "Thank you Albert. Welcome to my father's home. May I intrest you in a glass of brandy?"

[21:16] <+Ulrich> "not exactly, no"
[21:17] * +Siluvaine shakes her head.
[21:17] <@BradGM> He moves to a small desk and takes out ink and paper, but stops at Ulrich's speaking "Oh?"
[21:18] <@BradGM> He focuses on Ulrich for a moment "What say this? An Ulrican? Lying is rather below your kin, Ulrican."

[21:22] <+Siluvaine> "His Monestery actually."
[21:22] * +Ulrich visibly angered "I am no lier sir"
[21:24] <@BradGM> Roft "Well, I was in Middenheim to relive the siege, Nuln was bloodied first, and won the day, if only at great cost. I have saw villages burned and farms raized, everyone slaugthered like cattle. But I'm afraid I have not come across no Monastery, nor any place bearing the name St-Abelard."
[21:27] * +Siluvaine sips her drink and considers. "When exploring the Monastery for the Churches, we stumbled across one of the 7 swords."
[21:27] <+Ulrich> (why does everyone want to provoke a priest of Ulric..I don't get it.)
[21:27] <@BradGM> Roft "Seven Swords?"
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((It was not meant as an insult, more like a surprised reaction))
[21:29] <@BradGM> He smiles slgihtly "Ha, do you mean the Seven Swords the Countness gave to Nuln's seven officers?"
[21:29] <+Siluvaine> "You were gifted one of 7 swords made by Grunbar Grimmsson," she pauses and nods.
[21:30] * +Aithorn pulls out the Nulner sword strapped to his pack. "We were hoping to return it to it's proper owner."
[21:31] <@BradGM> Roft "Indeed I was, and I am honoured to say the Countess' trust in me was not misguided."
[21:32] <@BradGM> Roft "Ha, a Noble gesture indeed, but I'm afraid you'd fare better inquiring at the Imperial Gunnery School about who is without his sword."
[21:32] <@Edgerrin> "Yers be similar ta this one?"
[21:33] <+Ulrich> "mind showing it to us?"

[21:34] <+Ulrich> (great midns and all that lol)
[21:35] <@BradGM> Roft "Yes, all Seven were." *He gets up and raises a finger in a "one moment" move. He goes to a cabinet and, taking a small key out of his pocket, unlocks it. He opens one door, revealing a pair of small weapons, two main-gauche and sword-breaker, then the other, showing off a pair of pistols and a third one with 6 barrels set on a rotating system. In the cabinet proper are a pair of rapiers, a single foil, a buckler and with the Arming Sword hung in the middle.
[21:36] <@BradGM> He takes it out and shows it to you "I quite assure you Dwarf, this blade is the genuine affair."

[21:40] <+Siluvaine> "Do you happen to know where the other owners are? We've found 3 so far."
[21:40] <@BradGM> Roft "Yes, al Seven were, from what I was told."
[21:40] <@Edgerrin> "Tis a shame that the smith who forged these fine weapons now rots in a cell."
[21:41] <@Edgerrin> "A waste of fine talent."
[21:41] <@BradGM> Roft "But tell me, why all the complications to meet me when you could have simply left it at the Gunnery School? Or is it that you wish him to saave face and perhaps gather some rewawrd?"
[21:41] <@BradGM> Roft "Is that so? Unfortunate indeed."
[21:42] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "The gunnery school has proven itself less than helpful."
[21:42] <@Edgerrin> "WE be looking fer the owner, not looking fer a reward. church bisiness."
[21:42] * +Ulrich check to feel if anything "unnatual is in the area"
[21:43] <@BradGM> No, all seems fine Ulrich.
[21:45] <@BradGM> Roft "Well, I'm not one to be a churchgoer, but I would be willing to leand a hand. What may have happened at the Monastery that intrest the Churches so?"
[21:46] <+Ulrich> "lending a hand may mean actually taking those pistols out and having to use em."
[21:47] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "A few artifacts have gone missing. We need to find out of they were recovered by whoever was there, or if they have fallen into the hands of the Beastmen."
[21:47] <@BradGM> Roft "Well, I'm not one to turn back form danger, but I'm afraid I'm not the...investigative sort."
[21:48] <@BradGM> Roft "Thought I do know that most calamity that Nuln suffered originated form the Sewers."
[21:49] * +Ulrich snorts "like what?"
[21:49] <+Ulrich> "rats?"
[21:49] <@BradGM> Roft "It is said to be a nest of Mutants, cultitsts and more sinister sorts. That there is a place called the Market, where mutants gather freely and plot the city's destruction, but those are mostly chidlren's stories."
[21:50] <@BradGM> Roft "Yet there are continuous stories, or rumours, about mutants sightings near the Reik."
[21:51] * +Ulrich gets visabbly excited..."mutants..."
[21:51] <+Ulrich> "where is this place?"
[21:52] <@BradGM> Roft "What, the Market? It is deep underground, but a rumour, a superstition, if it exists, no one ever saw it and lived to tell of it."

[21:55] <@BradGM> Roft "There is a place I've heard while studying at the Gunnery School, called the Maze. It was said to be located in Shantytown, where one can easily loose itself in the labyrinth alleys and streets. From the stories, Mutants roamed free there and pray on the weak and foolish and ate them raw and alive."
[21:56] <@BradGM> Roft "But I've never confirmed it and travelled there, I had no need to travel tehre to get a night's worth of exitement."

[22:03] <@BradGM> Roft "No, I did not; we were not in the same unit, nor were we even of the same army; I recall one was a Knight, another was an artillery officer as well."

[22:15] <@BradGM> ((and good one too))
[22:15] <+Ulrich> "what do you of the man?"
[22:15] <+Siluvaine> "Well, either we were lied to by one of them, its one of the 4 others, or its the one that bought the sword from Baer."
[22:15] <+Siluvaine> "For all we know, one of the two we talked to bought the sword from Baer."

[22:17] <+Ulrich> "and less corruptable"
[22:17] <@BradGM> ((Tolzen is a Knight btw.))
[22:19] <@BradGM> Time is about 1-1:30 PM
[22:19] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "I'm sure they thought the same as the Priests in Middenheim."
[22:20] <+Ulrich> "i said less corruptabel, not incorruptable"
[22:21] <@BradGM> ((BRB, gonna take drape s out of dryer))
[22:21] <+Siluvaine> "I suppose if its corrupting, maybe this market or maze might be useful, but just as likely to kill us from what he was saying..if they exist."

[22:25] <@Edgerrin> "Who be sendin' the patrols out? Maybe we should be talkin' ta them. the dead at the church were all wearin' the symbol of the countess." Maybe we shuld be askin' her."
[22:26] <@BradGM> ((That would be the Nuln's Army who's paperwork is at the Gunnery School))
[22:26] * +Siluvaine nods. "I suppose we can try the School again."
[22:27] <+Aithorn> "The countess would likely remember the names at least of the commanders if nothing else. Though if the stories are true that even the Emperor is coming to the banquet then perhaps the war is all but forgotten here."
[22:27] <@BradGM> You would realise that army papers describing the troop movement and patrol routes might be off-limits to whoever demands them.
[22:28] <@Edgerrin> "Let's see. Her men be dead, she locks the smith up, she might know or be hiddin' sumthin."
[22:28] <+Alexi> "Dot vould mek sense, yah."
[22:30] <+Ulrich> "not easily proved though, and likely to get our necks stretched if we go in saying so"

[22:33] <@BradGM> So where to, Gunnery School, or the Palace?
[22:33] <@BradGM> Or elsewhere?
[22:33] <+Siluvaine> ((Urf))
[22:34] <@BradGM> You are in the nice part of town, high end shops and restaurants and such.

[22:35] <+Aithorn> ((if we've got some shops nearby, i'll take a look for an armorer to try and buy my ghost strider leather armor))

[22:39] <@BradGM> Aithorn/Ulrich, as you walk, you come across a T intersection where the two shops facing you are "Azrel's Fine Axe Shoppe" and "Samanga's Imported Elven Goods."
[22:39] <@BradGM> So fancy the shops are they both have a couple of guards at the front door.
[22:39] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[22:40] <+Ulrich> "looks like a bit of shopping is in order.."
[22:40] <+Aithorn> ((tough decision..... option 3: The Happy Halfling Ice Cream Shoppe, 35 flavors...))

[22:41] * +Ulrich heads into the Axe shop
[22:42] <+Ulrich> "ello?"
[22:43] <@BradGM> Samanga is an actual Elf from a trading family from Estalia. His goods vary from the usual item and tools made by elven hands and with an elven estetic, with weapons, armour and clothing reminescent of Ulthuan or more 'continental' elves.
[22:44] <@BradGM> Azrel's a Norscan, from his wild red hair and beard to his thick accent. His shop's got every sort of Axe you can think of, from everywhere, and of every quality.
[22:46] * +Aithorn starts browsing around and asks Samanga how long it would take to get fitted for a suit of leather armor, assuming they have any of a suitable quality

[23:06] <@BradGM> There are Axe from most provinces of the Empire, you can recognise something simialr to what you had back home even. There are others of Bretonnian style, most are of good or best quality. There are also Norscan axes, similar to those the Northern Marauders have, minus the Chaotic symbols on it. Quaity varies fomr normal to best. There are also Kislevite Axes of normal to best quality, Dwarven Axes being all of good or best quality. There are also 2 odd looking things, like clubs made of stone or bones with stranges engraving on it.

[23:54] <@BradGM> *End of Session***
[20:23] <@BradGM> Planning for tomorrow, the Party then took common rooms, except Siluvaine, and slept at the Happy Bear. Unfortunately, Aithorn and Alexi were victims of a robbery, as a few Crowns were missing off their purse the next morning. Starting their research near the Gunnery School, just as Gunpowder Week began in celebration, they learned of the whereabouts of Gerlach Baer, who is spending his days since his return at the Blind Piglet, a crummy tavern in Shantytown. Ulrich left the party again to follow a job offering on a large Oak in the middle of the Reikplatz about “big rats” that ate a whole ‘team’ send to kill them. Fearing Skavens, he only found a run-down tavern infested by mean rats that killed a couple of cats.
[20:23] <@BradGM> . Meanwhile, the Nuln officer was found drunk, but it was easy to get his to speak, costing only a few pints. The Flogged man explained that he and his unit were guarding the supply routes until they were attacked by Beastsmen. Baer claimed he was victim of Dark Magic that saw him run away and his unit was mostly killed off. Still, he was captured, arrested and flogged for cowardness before returning to Nuln, disgraced and renounced by his family and peers.
[20:23] <@BradGM> . He stated that he never went near St-Abelard, not even knowing the place, and that he sold his Arming Sword to a man for a few coins for some drinks. But not all was lost, he did informed the Party about the third officer, Rolf Vogt, who has a good reputation for his actions in the War. His father, Lord Randolf Vogt, was a former advisor to the Countess until he lost his position for unknown reasons to Baer. Both men are residing at the Vogt ancenstral home in the Heart of Altestadt, the Old City, home of Nuln’s richest and prominent citizens.

[21:11] <+Ulrich> (YES! found two new horus heresy audio books! score!)
[21:13] <@BradGM> You are taken into a small well decorated salon with rather old, but quite sturdy and servicable furniture. There, a man in his late 20s/early 30 rise up form his seat. He's got long brown hair down to his shoulders, a rather good physique and wear light clothing of top quality in black, Nuln's official colour.
[21:13] <@BradGM> Roft "Thank you Albert. Welcome to my father's home. May I intrest you in a glass of brandy?"
[21:14] <+Ulrich> "yes"
[21:14] <+Ulrich> "that would be wonderful"
[21:15] * +Siluvaine nods. "That would be nice, yes."
[21:16] <@BradGM> He signals the servant who prepares some drinks for you "Please, do sit down. As you may know, I am Roft Vogt. Albert told me you are representative of the Church of Sigmar? It is already time for the annual donation?"
[21:16] <+Ulrich> "not exactly, no"
[21:17] * +Siluvaine shakes her head.
[21:17] <@BradGM> He moves to a small desk and takes out ink and paper, but stops at Ulrich's speaking "Oh?"
[21:18] <@BradGM> He focuses on Ulrich for a moment "What say this? An Ulrican? Lying is rather below your kin, Ulrican."
[21:19] * +Siluvaine shakes her head again. "Its a matter of importance, the churchs are working together. Or as much as they ever do. This has to do wtih St. Abelard."
[21:20] <@BradGM> !dhroll 23
[21:20] <@Diceling> BradGM: 51 Failure by 2 degrees!
[21:20] <@BradGM> Roft "I'm afraid I'm not quite familiar with that Saint, Miss."
[21:21] <+Aithorn> "We have heard that you were in the army Nuln sent out recently. We were hoping you could tell us where your travels took you."
[21:22] <@BradGM> Albert the Servant serves you all a small glass of brandy. It's the good stuff too!
[21:22] <+Siluvaine> "His Monestery actually."
[21:22] * +Ulrich visibly angered "I am no lier sir"
[21:24] <@BradGM> Roft "Well, I was in Middenheim to relive the siege, Nuln was bloodied first, and won the day, if only at great cost. I have saw villages burned and farms raized, everyone slaugthered like cattle. But I'm afraid I have not come across no Monastery, nor any place bearing the name St-Abelard."
[21:27] * +Siluvaine sips her drink and considers. "When exploring the Monastery for the Churches, we stumbled across one of the 7 swords."
[21:27] <+Ulrich> (why does everyone want to provoke a priest of Ulric..I don't get it.)
[21:27] <@BradGM> Roft "Seven Swords?"
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((It was not meant as an insult, more like a surprised reaction))
[21:29] <@BradGM> He smiles slgihtly "Ha, do you mean the Seven Swords the Countness gave to Nuln's seven officers?"
[21:29] <+Siluvaine> "You were gifted one of 7 swords made by Grunbar Grimmsson," she pauses and nods.
[21:30] * +Aithorn pulls out the Nulner sword strapped to his pack. "We were hoping to return it to it's proper owner."
[21:31] <@BradGM> Roft "Indeed I was, and I am honoured to say the Countess' trust in me was not misguided."
[21:32] <@BradGM> Roft "Ha, a Noble gesture indeed, but I'm afraid you'd fare better inquiring at the Imperial Gunnery School about who is without his sword."
[21:32] <@Edgerrin> "Yers be similar ta this one?"
[21:33] <+Ulrich> "mind showing it to us?"
[21:34] <@Edgerrin> "Can we see it fer comparison? Want ta make sure we got the authentic article and not a ruddy copy."
[21:34] * +Ulrich looks at Edg and nods
[21:34] <+Ulrich> (great midns and all that lol)
[21:35] <@BradGM> Roft "Yes, all Seven were." *He gets up and raises a finger in a "one moment" move. He goes to a cabinet and, taking a small key out of his pocket, unlocks it. He opens one door, revealing a pair of small weapons, two main-gauche and sword-breaker, then the other, showing off a pair of pistols and a third one with 6 barrels set on a rotating system. In the cabinet proper are a pair of rapiers, a single foil, a buckler and with the Arming Sword hung in the middle.
[21:36] <@BradGM> He takes it out and shows it to you "I quite assure you Dwarf, this blade is the genuine affair."
[21:36] <+Ulrich> "edg, check it"
[21:37] <@BradGM> You can roll Trade(smith) +30 Edgerrin
[21:37] * @Edgerrin grabs the sword he found. 1"May i compare the two?"
[21:38] <@BradGM> Roft "I have no objections, Dwarven workmanship is rather extrodinary."
[21:38] <@Edgerrin> !dhroll 89
[21:38] <@Diceling> Edgerrin: 24 Success by 6 degrees!
[21:38] <@BradGM> Indeed Edgerrin, Roft's Sword is the same one that you have, made by Grimsson.
[21:39] * @Edgerrin hands the sowrd back to Roft. 1"Me thanks sir. They look t a be of the same make."
[21:40] <+Siluvaine> "Do you happen to know where the other owners are? We've found 3 so far."
[21:40] <@BradGM> Roft "Yes, al Seven were, from what I was told."
[21:40] <@Edgerrin> "Tis a shame that the smith who forged these fine weapons now rots in a cell."
[21:41] <@Edgerrin> "A waste of fine talent."
[21:41] <@BradGM> Roft "But tell me, why all the complications to meet me when you could have simply left it at the Gunnery School? Or is it that you wish him to saave face and perhaps gather some rewawrd?"
[21:41] <@BradGM> Roft "Is that so? Unfortunate indeed."
[21:42] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "The gunnery school has proven itself less than helpful."
[21:42] <@Edgerrin> "WE be looking fer the owner, not looking fer a reward. church bisiness."
[21:42] * +Ulrich check to feel if anything "unnatual is in the area"
[21:43] <@BradGM> No, all seems fine Ulrich.
[21:45] <@BradGM> Roft "Well, I'm not one to be a churchgoer, but I would be willing to leand a hand. What may have happened at the Monastery that intrest the Churches so?"
[21:46] <+Ulrich> "lending a hand may mean actually taking those pistols out and having to use em."
[21:47] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "A few artifacts have gone missing. We need to find out of they were recovered by whoever was there, or if they have fallen into the hands of the Beastmen."
[21:47] <@BradGM> Roft "Well, I'm not one to turn back form danger, but I'm afraid I'm not the...investigative sort."
[21:48] <@BradGM> Roft "Thought I do know that most calamity that Nuln suffered originated form the Sewers."
[21:49] * +Ulrich snorts "like what?"
[21:49] <+Ulrich> "rats?"
[21:49] <@BradGM> Roft "It is said to be a nest of Mutants, cultitsts and more sinister sorts. That there is a place called the Market, where mutants gather freely and plot the city's destruction, but those are mostly chidlren's stories."
[21:50] <@BradGM> Roft "Yet there are continuous stories, or rumours, about mutants sightings near the Reik."
[21:51] * +Ulrich gets visabbly excited..."mutants..."
[21:51] <+Ulrich> "where is this place?"
[21:52] <@BradGM> Roft "What, the Market? It is deep underground, but a rumour, a superstition, if it exists, no one ever saw it and lived to tell of it."
[21:52] <+Ulrich> "no man, by the reiver, where by the river?"
[21:52] * +Siluvaine tries not to look askance at Ulrich's ferverance.
[21:53] <+Aithorn> !dhroll 51
[21:53] <@Diceling> Aithorn: 46 Success by 0 degrees!
[21:53] <@BradGM> !dhroll 63
[21:53] <@Diceling> BradGM: 29 Success by 3 degrees!
[21:54] * +Ulrich grins hawkishly at Edg, "some purging would be a welcome distraction"
[21:54] * +Aithorn successfully hides a look at Ulrich and his enthusiasm.
[21:55] <@BradGM> Roft "There is a place I've heard while studying at the Gunnery School, called the Maze. It was said to be located in Shantytown, where one can easily loose itself in the labyrinth alleys and streets. From the stories, Mutants roamed free there and pray on the weak and foolish and ate them raw and alive."
[21:56] <@BradGM> Roft "But I've never confirmed it and travelled there, I had no need to travel tehre to get a night's worth of exitement."
[21:56] * +Ulrich grins even larger showing his pearly white teeth! "sounds wonderful!"
[21:57] * +Siluvaine sips her drink and considers.
[21:57] <@BradGM> Roft "I would still advise caution. The Watch do not quite patrol Shantytown, and are rumoured to never neter to Maze, as with much of the dre g living near it."
[21:57] <+Siluvaine> ((Brb))
[21:57] <+Alexi> "Dot chust means dere vill be less confusion ven de fighting starts."
[21:58] * +Ulrich haha where I was from there is no watch at all, ever. haha"
[21:58] <+Aithorn> ((Alexi, ever heard of Chesty Puller?))
[21:58] <+Alexi> (Yep!)
[21:58] <+Ulrich> (brb i got to do a smokes run)
[21:59] <+Aithorn> ((what you just said sounds a lot like him))
[21:59] <+Alexi> ((heh heh))
[22:01] <@BradGM> Roft "Yes well, it may be folly, but you seems the ressourceful sort."
[22:01] <+Aithorn> "If we may lend a hand to this city, we might. But our errand for the church will not wait and the people watching over us are not known for their patience. We still need to find the owner of this blade, did you meet any of hte other commanders before you returned home?"
[22:03] <@BradGM> Roft "No, I did not; we were not in the same unit, nor were we even of the same army; I recall one was a Knight, another was an artillery officer as well."
[22:05] <+Ulrich> (we are not retreating, we are attacking walking backwards!)
[22:06] <@BradGM> ((tactical repositionning))
[22:06] * +Siluvaine nods and sips her brandy as she considers. "Well."
[22:06] <+Aithorn> ((They are in front of us, behind us, and we are flanked on both sides by an enemy that outnumbers us 29:1. They cant get away from us now!))
[22:07] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[22:08] <+Ulrich> (that guy was the orginaly Rambo lol)
[22:08] <+Aithorn> ((indeed he was))
[22:10] <@BradGM> ((There was a 40k quote similar to this: the ennemy got us surrounded. Good that means we got the initiative as we can fire and attack from any direction!))
[22:10] <+Siluvaine> "Thank you for your help, it seems our search continues."
[22:10] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[22:11] <@BradGM> Roft "My pleasure, I wish you good luck in your inquiries."
[22:11] * +Siluvaine finishes her drink and gets to her feet.
[22:12] <@BradGM> Albert the Servant escorts you back to the front door, and into the busy streets of Nuln.
[22:12] <@BradGM> ((Excetpt if soemone had anything else?))
[22:12] <+Ulrich> (probably based commisar Yarrick on him, dude just wont die)
[22:14] * +Ulrich nods and walks out
[22:14] * +Aithorn "We've met with all three that we know of; and no closer than when we got here. At least we have a headstart on the Witchhunters when they learn we've found nothing."
[22:14] <+Aithorn> ((that was when we were back out on the streets))
[22:15] <@BradGM> ((ok))
[22:15] <@BradGM> ((and good one too))
[22:15] <+Ulrich> "what do you of the man?"
[22:15] <+Siluvaine> "Well, either we were lied to by one of them, its one of the 4 others, or its the one that bought the sword from Baer."
[22:15] <+Siluvaine> "For all we know, one of the two we talked to bought the sword from Baer."
[22:16] <@Edgerrin> "I place good money that the others be dead and that the sword i found be one of theirs."
[22:16] <+Aithorn> ((bbl))
[22:16] <@BradGM> ((k))
[22:17] <+Siluvaine> "Perhaps we should see if the Gunnery school has anything on deployments."
[22:17] <+Ulrich> "one is a knight, he would probably be dead before giving up his sword"
[22:17] <+Ulrich> "and less corruptable"
[22:17] <@BradGM> ((Tolzen is a Knight btw.))
[22:19] <@BradGM> Time is about 1-1:30 PM
[22:19] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "I'm sure they thought the same as the Priests in Middenheim."
[22:20] <+Ulrich> "i said less corruptabel, not incorruptable"
[22:21] <@BradGM> ((BRB, gonna take drape s out of dryer))
[22:21] <+Siluvaine> "I suppose if its corrupting, maybe this market or maze might be useful, but just as likely to kill us from what he was saying..if they exist."
[22:22] <@BradGM> ((back))
[22:25] <@Edgerrin> "Who be sendin' the patrols out? Maybe we should be talkin' ta them. the dead at the church were all wearin' the symbol of the countess." Maybe we shuld be askin' her."
[22:26] <@BradGM> ((That would be the Nuln's Army who's paperwork is at the Gunnery School))
[22:26] * +Siluvaine nods. "I suppose we can try the School again."
[22:27] <+Aithorn> "The countess would likely remember the names at least of the commanders if nothing else. Though if the stories are true that even the Emperor is coming to the banquet then perhaps the war is all but forgotten here."
[22:27] <@BradGM> You would realise that army papers describing the troop movement and patrol routes might be off-limits to whoever demands them.
[22:28] <@Edgerrin> "Let's see. Her men be dead, she locks the smith up, she might know or be hiddin' sumthin."
[22:28] <+Alexi> "Dot vould mek sense, yah."
[22:30] <+Ulrich> "not easily proved though, and likely to get our necks stretched if we go in saying so"
[22:30] <+Siluvaine> "Or just locked away on her say so."
[22:30] <@Edgerrin> "If she aint behind this she might gives us help ta clear 'er name and it twould give us a bit mer clout."
[22:32] <@Edgerrin> 'with the gunnerny and troop movement at least."
[22:32] <@Edgerrin> 'or we tell'em we be going ta sick t he witch hunters on em."
[22:32] <+Ulrich> "I think if a better chance of dying than not"
[22:33] <+Ulrich> "lets follow up our other leads before going on a witch hunt so to speak"
[22:33] <@BradGM> So where to, Gunnery School, or the Palace?
[22:33] <@BradGM> Or elsewhere?
[22:33] <+Siluvaine> ((Urf))
[22:34] <@BradGM> You are in the nice part of town, high end shops and restaurants and such.
[22:35] <+Siluvaine> ((pondering))
[22:35] <+Ulrich> "let us check wit hthe gunnery school"
[22:35] <+Aithorn> ((if we've got some shops nearby, i'll take a look for an armorer to try and buy my ghost strider leather armor))
[22:36] <+Siluvaine> "Probably for the best, maybe they'll help."
[22:37] <+Ulrich> (I could look for a double handed axe while there too i guess)
[22:37] <@BradGM> Roll search+20 or Gossip+30 Aithorn.

[22:38] * +Alexi still can't afford his armor so oh well :P
[22:39] <@BradGM> Aithorn/Ulrich, as you walk, you come across a T intersection where the two shops facing you are "Azrel's Fine Axe Shoppe" and "Samanga's Imported Elven Goods."
[22:39] <@BradGM> So fancy the shops are they both have a couple of guards at the front door.
[22:39] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[22:40] <+Ulrich> "looks like a bit of shopping is in order.."
[22:40] <+Aithorn> ((tough decision..... option 3: The Happy Halfling Ice Cream Shoppe, 35 flavors...))
[22:41] * +Aithorn heads for Samanga's
[22:41] <@Edgerrin> ((mmm coconut icecream))
[22:41] * +Siluvaine does as well.
[22:41] <+Ulrich> (yumm meat pie flavored ice cream)
[22:41] * +Ulrich heads into the Axe shop
[22:42] <+Ulrich> "ello?"
[22:43] <@BradGM> Samanga is an actual Elf from a trading family from Estalia. His goods vary from the usual item and tools made by elven hands and with an elven estetic, with weapons, armour and clothing reminescent of Ulthuan or more 'continental' elves.
[22:44] <@BradGM> Azrel's a Norscan, from his wild red hair and beard to his thick accent. His shop's got every sort of Axe you can think of, from everywhere, and of every quality.
[22:46] * +Aithorn starts browsing around and asks Samanga how long it would take to get fitted for a suit of leather armor, assuming they have any of a suitable quality
[22:47] * +Siluvaine just browses for now (brb)

[22:48] <@BradGM> Samanga "Well, I do have fine bark leather I acquired from a friend in Bretonnia, I would need to take your measurements and a month's time to work the leather into form. A deposit would also be required."
[22:49] <@BradGM> Azrel "Depends on whät you're fighting, or what kind of impression you want to make."
[22:50] <+Aithorn> ((ouch))
[22:51] <+Ulrich> "i be fightin just about everything, but I would like me a nasty Beastman gutter, something to really make em think twice about fightin me."
[22:52] <+Aithorn> "I have found much in my travels, the desposit is no problem, but I have an errand that will not wait. In a month, I will be needed elsewhere."
[22:53] <+Ulrich> "got anything special?"
[22:56] * +Aithorn clinks a hand against his coin pouch, "Perhaps there are others who could do the job as well who would appreciate a customer more."
[22:59] <@BradGM> Roll charm or barther Aithorn.

[23:02] <+Ulrich> (what do they look like, beyond just an axe, lol)

[23:05] <+Aithorn> "All the sooner to return to the good life, once I am done cleaning up your messes, round-ear."
[23:06] <@BradGM> There are Axe from most provinces of the Empire, you can recognise something simialr to what you had back home even. There are others of Bretonnian style, most are of good or best quality. There are also Norscan axes, similar to those the Northern Marauders have, minus the Chaotic symbols on it. Quaity varies fomr normal to best. There are also Kislevite Axes of normal to best quality, Dwarven Axes being all of good or best quality. There are also 2 odd looking things, like clubs made of stone or bones with stranges engraving on it.
[23:06] * +Aithorn walks out in a huff
[23:07] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, roll charm -20 to ask Samanga about clothing after Aithorn's move.

[23:12] <@BradGM> Samanga calm himself as you ask for something else "Ah yes, I still have a good selection of clothing and masks for the Ball, it is still a week away and people are still wondering who wil wear what."
[23:12] <@BradGM> Azrel "Just for yöu, 200 Cröwns."

[23:35] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, most clotihing seems to be in season in Nuln, which means the cheaspest set is 20 Crowns. as for the Masks, most seems to be of animals, while others are quite bland (a simple one coloured thing)

[23:37] * +Siluvaine nods and thanks Samanga, inquiring how soon they must have the order to get it just right.
[23:38] <@BradGM> Merchant "I'm quite sorry, but I won't make exceptions to the first Elf that comes stroling in here with a full purse and loose my select clientele!"
[23:38] * +Alexi will go looking for a hattery store (since I don't think I've gotten a new Hat yet)
[23:39] <@BradGM> Samanga "Well, I would need at least 2 days to make the adjustments, but for a good fee, a few hours, as long as you don't do anything sudden."
[23:39] <@BradGM> ((You did back in altdorf, but nothing in the Nuln fashion, no.))
[23:40] <@BradGM> Roll search+20 or gossip+30 Alexi!
[23:40] <+Aithorn> "I will try to return here in a month. If I am able to come back this way."
[23:40] <@BradGM> The Merchant takes your mesurements and your order Aithorn.
[23:40] * +Siluvaine nods. "Of course, thank you for taking the time to talk to me."

[23:40] <@Diceling> Alexi: 31 Success by 2 degrees!
[23:41] <@BradGM> Alexi, you quickly spot a hat store, the "Hatter's Hut."
[23:42] <@BradGM> ((oh man, and it's late as well))
[23:42] <+Alexi> ((Well, up to you then, but I had a humorous bit here planned))
[23:43] <@BradGM> ((fine by me, it's the others that I'm wondering about))
[23:43] * +Alexi strolls into the hattery, looking inside
[23:43] <+Ulrich> im done for the night. :) )
[23:44] <+Aithorn> ((i'm good to keep going for the humorous bit, but otherwise probably best to call it))
[23:45] <+Ulrich> (i'll watch, but i got nothing left i need to do for today)
[23:45] <@BradGM> The owner is there Alexi, an old man who's busy working on a bonnet.
[23:45] <@BradGM> (ok, go Alexi))
[23:46] <+Alexi> "Ho dere." Alexi puts his axe on the counter. "Dis is Axe. Hy requirez a hat dot vould be fit to be seen in Axe's company."
[23:47] <@BradGM> Owner "w-what?" *He looks at you wondering if you're serious*
[23:47] <@BradGM> Owner "Are you serious?"
[23:47] * +Alexi frowns
[23:47] <+Alexi> "Hy ham sorry, hy did not know hyu vos hard of hearink."
[23:47] * +Alexi speaks louder
[23:47] <@BradGM> !dhroll 75
[23:47] <@Diceling> BradGM: 14 Success by 6 degrees!
[23:47] <@BradGM> The owner shakes at Alexi's loud yelling.
[23:48] <+Alexi> "HY NEEDS A HAT DOT VOULD BE NIZE VIT AXE."
[23:48] <@BradGM> Owner "Ok, ok! please don't hurt me."
[23:48] <+Alexi> "HY VOULD NOT DO DOT."
[23:50] <@BradGM> The Owner runs around in his shop, nervously looking at hats and Alexi and his Axe. After a few moments, he returns with a fancy triangular shaped hat with a large feather in it "H-Here, it's from Tilea, real fashion this season!"
[23:50] <+Aithorn> ((nice, when does Axe get his own hat))
[23:50] <@BradGM> ((I was thinking he was shopping a hat for his Axe, until I read the whole thing))
[23:50] <+Alexi> "HMM. DOT DOES LOOK GOOT. HOW MUCH DO HY PAYS FOR DOT?"
[23:51] <@BradGM> Owner "Only F-four Crowns."
[23:51] <+Ulrich> (LOL)
