[20:20] <@BradGM> After a brief investigation, it was concluded that the young Alptraum was innocent of the murder; mostly because Leitdorf was brutally killed, his face now but a mass of gnawed flesh, and the murderer left behind a tooth, which Alptraum does not lack.
[20:21] <@BradGM> An almost unseen line of blood droplets was also discovered, which indicated that the Killer discreetly left the vessel. The next day also had its event as an attacked coach was seen on the shoreline, and a party went to investigate it under a light rain. Apart from remains and a single body, nothing was found; coins were lying all over, markings of dubious nature were everywhere, telltale signs of Beastsmen being the culprits.
[20:21] <@BradGM> The Party did find an invitation to the Countess’ Ball as well. Arriving finally at Nuln, which smells as foul as Altdorf, the party asked about for a few locations before following Aithorn to the Happy Bear Inn, a dockside establishment which has a very good reputation amongst the Emperor Wilhelm’s Marines and Crew.
[20:22] <@BradGM> As you enter, the sound of chatter from the thirty pairs inside the large interior stop and turn around to look you over.
[20:24] * +Siluvaine glances around, wondering if all new arrivals get this treament, or if someone hates dwarves or something.
[20:24] * +Ulrich looks them over back
[20:24] <+Siluvaine> ((damnit, quick brb))
[20:25] <@BradGM> ((No, usual thing when you get inside a new tavern; you guys simply don't move about wehn drinking.))
[20:25] * +Aithorn glances around trying to see if there is a table or two next to each other that they can grab
[20:29] <@BradGM> There's tables about, as the place is large enough that is is only half-filled.
[20:30] <@BradGM> After a moment, the patrons return to thier drink and talk.
[20:33] * +Aithorn starts moving through the crowd towards a table
[20:33] <@BradGM> You're barely sat down that a servant comes around "Welcome folks. What'll be for you?"
[20:35] <Alexi> n
[20:36] <+Siluvaine> ((sorr about that, had to get sometihngdone real quick)
[20:36] <+Ulrich> "ale, please"
[20:36] * +Aithorn orders an ale as well, sadly not likely as good as the Emperor Wilhelm
[20:37] <+Aithorn> 's
[20:37] * Alexi will order ale
[20:37] * +Siluvaine does the same and waits for the servant to leave. "Plans?"
[20:38] <@BradGM> He nods it down and leave, returning within two minutes.
[20:38] <@BradGM> 3 pennies each.
[20:39] * +Siluvaine sips the ale carefully.
[20:40] <@BradGM> "Just call for Petr if you need anything."
[20:40] <+Siluvaine> "Before you go, do you have rooms available?"
[20:40] <+Aithorn> "We need to scout a graveyard and find a swordsmith or garrison clerk. It probably be good to know what this ball is as well."
[20:41] <@BradGM> Petr "Yes, the best rooms on the WaterFront!"
[20:43] <@BradGM> Petr "15 pennies for the common room, 15 shillings for a double room, and a 30 shillings for a privae room."
[20:44] * +Siluvaine tries not to wince, really.
[20:44] <@BradGM> Petr "We also have private rooms if you'd prefer some calm when drinking and eating."
[20:45] <+Ulrich> (per night right?)
[20:46] <@BradGM> Petr "Only a Crown a night, eveng ot your own servant. Tip not included, of course. Hehe." *He grins, and you can see he's wearing a silver teeth.*
[20:46] <@BradGM> ((yes, per night))
[20:47] * +Siluvaine is surprised he doesn't have gold teeth with the rates he's charging. "Very well, thank you."
[20:48] <@BradGM> ((He's only a servant))
[20:48] <+Aithorn> "Siluvaine, if you opened up your own inn here, you could send the money back to Marienburg and buy out the other merchants in short order"
[20:49] <+Siluvaine> "Quite likely."
[20:52] <+Siluvaine> "Are we going to stick together, or split up to cover more ground?"
[20:55] <+Aithorn> "We've been attacked by beastmen and had a murder happen under our nose, I would go together. What do others think?"
[21:00] <+Aithorn> "We can leave my kinsmen to safeguard Magister Marsner while she prepares for her ritual, hopefully we can accomplish our piece as quickly."
[21:01] <+Siluvaine> "I am sure something will delay us. That seems to be our luck."
[21:02] <+Ulrich> (stick together)
[21:02] <@Edgerrin> "That be fine with me."
[21:04] <+Siluvaine> "Brother Stefan first then?"
[21:05] <+Aithorn> "He could save us a lot of walking. Sounds like a fine idea to me.""
[21:06] * +Siluvaine lets the Magister know of our plans, and akss if we need to be on the look out for any materials for the ritual if its to be done here.
[21:07] <@BradGM> Marsner was with you all this time, simply being silent as the tomb.
[21:08] <@BradGM> Marsner "I shall visit the Gardens of Morr for this. I had planned to stay there."
[21:08] <+Siluvaine> ((not creepy at all!))
[21:09] <Alexi> ((I've been there in Vermintide. I dun like that place))
[21:09] <@BradGM> Marsner "I can arrange for my 'keepers' to have celles for them as well, if they bear ill sleeping with the dead."
[21:10] <+Aithorn> ((is it a name for a graveyard? or a temple? or are they the same thing for Morr-ians?))
[21:10] <Alexi> ((sure seemed like both to me))
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((Yeah cemetary, usually got a temple there as well.))
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((There was one in Middenheim.))
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((And in Altdorf))
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((Just..not a place to really go, usually..))
[21:11] * +Siluvaine nods. "I'm sure that will be fine."
[21:11] <+Aithorn> ((or rather, just once ;))
[21:12] <+Ulrich> "if we got our lodging settled, i'll be finishing my ale and heading over to the Temple of Ulrich for a while. I ned to concicrate this beasty head."
[21:12] <@BradGM> Maedhros "I can tolerate the smell of death, but I cannot stand this filthy stench that pollutes this area."
[21:13] <+Siluvaine> "It can always be worse."
[21:14] <+Aithorn> "Then you should have no problems. The humans stay away from these Gardens of Morr."
[21:14] <+Ulrich> "for good reason"
[21:15] <@BradGM> Lindara "You sleep near your dead?"
[21:15] <+Ulrich> "do not tally there for too long, there are worse things than zombies in them so i've been told"
[21:19] <+Siluvaine> "I am sure the Gardens here suffer no such troubles."
[21:19] <Alexi> "Vell, hyu kin hope."
[21:20] <+Aithorn> "Do we know where to find this Brother Stefan?"
[21:20] <@BradGM> Marsner "Mere peasant superstition, I assure you."
[21:21] <+Siluvaine> "He's the Steward at the Iron Dungeon."
[21:23] <@BradGM> (( http://dark-heresy.wikispaces.com/file/view/cityofNuln.JPG/599926358/cityofNuln.JPG ))
[21:23] <@BradGM> ((Not that your characters know the city, 'mind.))
[21:24] <@BradGM> ((With luck, it'll turn into a street fight!))
[21:24] <Alexi> ((Axe will fight the street! Axe knows no fear!))
[21:26] <@BradGM> ((Well, make those gossip rolls))
[21:27] <+Aithorn> "The Iron Dungeon? Sounds easy enough to find. Getting in may be a different story, but we'll leave that to the minstrels."
[21:27] <+Siluvaine> !dhroll 63
[21:27] <@Diceling> Siluvaine: 24 Success by 3 degrees!
[21:27] <@BradGM> ((Hehehe))
[21:27] <@BradGM> (((What, no!))
[21:27] <+Siluvaine> "Our letter of introduction should help."
[21:29] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, you call Petr, and he tells you that the Iron Tower is the big tower past the Great Bridge.
[21:29] * +Ulrich leaves for the Temple of Ulric to take care of the beastman head, pray, and introduce himself to the local Sect.
[21:30] <@BradGM> Roll gossip Ulric, as you didn't get it last session.
[21:30] <+Siluvaine> "Well, so much for staying together."

[21:32] <@Diceling> Ulrich: 44 Success by 0 degrees!
[21:35] <@BradGM> You're told to reach the Temple Quarter, by simply climbing up toward the Palace.
[21:35] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "To the Tower I suppose."
[21:38] <@BradGM> It still rains outside, but you can see a tower sticking out in the middle of the Reik like a finger pointing toward the sky. From where you stand, it seems to be bleeding some dark, oragne-red blood from the ironed windows and small platforms here and there.
[21:41] * +Aithorn shudders involuntarily at the tower as they make their way through the streets
[21:41] <@BradGM> You can walk on the waterfront, to reach the Tower.
[21:41] <+Aithorn> ((what is our smell du jour? still rotting meat?))
[21:41] <@BradGM> ((Aw, well if you insists..))
[21:41] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10
[21:41] <@Diceling> BradGM: 2
[21:41] <@BradGM> ((damn, almost a 3!))
[21:42] * +Siluvaine sighs at the rain and covers up as much as she can and heads off to the tower.
[21:42] <@BradGM> It smells like manure!
[21:42] <@BradGM> WET manure!
[21:44] * +Siluvaine grimaces and holds the handkerchief to her hand as she makes her way to the Tower.
[21:44] <@BradGM> You past near the Great Bridge, the only Bridge that crossed the Reik completely at its widest point. Across the large road, you reach the Handelbezirk quarter, where you get into heavy chariot traffic.
[21:46] <@BradGM> This palce seems to be mostly nice merchants and fancy restaurants and 'café' places.
[21:46] * @Edgerrin feels right at home
[21:47] * Alexi tugs at his collar
[21:48] * +Siluvaine figures it will go back down a bit as they get closer to the Iron Tower.
[21:49] * +Aithorn is trying not to get run off by a chariot as they follow the river
[21:49] <@BradGM> You loose an hour just moving throught, as the ehavy traffic and the numerous people unloadings goods, are blocking the way and don'T care. Alsmot you can hear insults and talk backs in al the 'human' languages in the Old Wolrd; Reikspiel, Estalians, Tileans, Bretonnans.
[21:51] <@BradGM> You reach a small bridge, which a plaque indicates is the Glory Bridge, which corssed to Aver island. The Island itself seems to be just a field with a dozen thightly grouped trees. a small fortified barracks and a tavern called the Barking Dog. The Taverns has a set of double doors, like a barn, in which the main door is located.
[21:53] * +Siluvaine looks around. "SOme sort of park maybe?"
[21:55] <@BradGM> As you are closer, you can see that the Iron Tower is actually made of Stone. There are metal parts, mostly the grim gargoyles, the barred on the few windows, and the ramp around the vigil-occupied small watch deck.
[21:55] <@BradGM> You must past the Iron Bridge, which is as sinister of the Tower.
[21:56] * +Siluvaine turns and trudges in direction of the Iron Bridge.
[21:57] * +Aithorn tries to take as long as possible a walk through the pleasant greenery before leaving for the Iron Bridge
[21:58] <@BradGM> The road seems to keep going o the South shore of the Reik, but the Tower itself occupied most of the small island. Surrounded by an iron fence, the inside grounds are covered in a thin cover of mud. There is a pyre, itself also fenced, to the side.
[22:00] * +Siluvaine looks for signs of guards as she heads for the tower.
[22:00] * +Aithorn approaches the door trying to not look like an armed-to-the-teeth mercenary and looks for a door knocker or a sentry.
[22:01] * @Edgerrin doesnt bother with subtlty
[22:01] <@BradGM> There is a door-knocker yes. Using it, the door opens after a moment.
[22:01] <@BradGM> Guard "What is your business here?"
[22:02] <+Siluvaine> "We're here to meet with Brother Stefan."
[22:03] <@BradGM> Guard "On what business?"
[22:04] <+Aithorn> "The Church of Sigmar has sent us here."
[22:05] <+Siluvaine> "We have a letter of introduction from Witchhunter Hoffer."
[22:05] <@BradGM> Guard "Hmm..wait here."
[22:05] <@BradGM> The door slams shut. It takes a good 10 minutes before it opens up again "Come in, follow me."
[22:07] * +Aithorn enters the tower before removing his hood and trying to shake off as much rainwater as he can without getting it all over the others
[22:08] * @Edgerrin shakes the rain off like a dog.
[22:09] * Alexi doesn't bother and just drips where he stands
[22:09] * +Siluvaine lowers her hood once inside and looks around, following the guard.
[22:10] <@BradGM> The Guard takes you inside, the smell is rather foul. You get a couple of floors up, into an office with both a window and a small desk. There is a old man, perhaps 50, quite pale and reminicent of a scibe rather than any sort of Priest or WitchHunter. He is holding a pair of lenses over his eyes, looking at some papers.
[22:12] <+Siluvaine> "Brother Stefan?"
[22:12] <@BradGM> Stefan "Yes. So what is this about?"
[22:12] <+Ulrich> !dhroll 57
[22:13] <@Diceling> Ulrich: 18 Success by 3 degrees!
[22:13] * +Siluvaine pulls the letter of introduction out and hands it over.
[22:13] <@BradGM> He looks up from his papers, at the lot of you, before taking the letter.
[22:14] <@BradGM> Stefan "Hm. Dark times, still."
[22:15] <+Siluvaine> "Quite,"
[22:16] <@BradGM> Stefan "So what are you course of action? With Gunpower week starting tomorrow, things will be rather chaotic."
[22:17] <+Siluvaine> "We hope to find the owner of hte sword that we found. With that we might find the Chalice."
[22:18] <+Aithorn> "We found something north of Altdorf, we were hoping you could tell us a bit more about a sword we found."
[22:21] <@BradGM> Stefan "I'm no armourer, but let's see it."
[22:22] <+Siluvaine> "The markings on it are from Grunbar Grimmsson."
[22:25] <@BradGM> Stefan "Ah yes, him."
[22:26] <+Siluvaine> "Our next step is to find him. Perhaps he'll recognize the blade."
[22:28] <@BradGM> Stefan "Guard, take them to Grimmsson's cell."
[22:29] <+Siluvaine> "Cell?"
[22:30] <+Aithorn> "What was his crime?"
[22:30] <+Ulrich> !dhroll 54

[22:30] <+Siluvaine> ((could be cell like a monastic cell))
[22:31] <+Aithorn> ((in a place called the Iron Dungeon?))
[22:31] <@BradGM> Stefan "Yes, he's been arrested by Orders of the Countess herself. He's ben in our coldest cell."
[22:31] <+Siluvaine> "Is this a recent development?"
[22:34] <@BradGM> Stefan "He's been here for 3 months, he should be dead by month's end. His lungs."
[22:35] <+Siluvaine> "Ah, so not a result of the artifact."
[22:35] <@BradGM> Stefan "I doutb he knows anything about this matter or anything even related to it."
[22:36] * +Siluvaine nods. "Well, its a good thing we got here when we did."
[22:38] * +Aithorn if we keep doing things like this, we may be labeled 'disturbers of the peace'. "Let's go see what Grimmsson has to say."
[22:38] <@BradGM> You get taken up in the tower, as the smell of sweat, desease and dead is all around you. The Guard is using a torch to move, as there is no natural light coming from the outside.
[22:40] * +Aithorn wraps his hood over his nose and tries to keep to the center of the hallway
[22:40] <+Ulrich> !dhroll 54
[22:40] <@Diceling> Ulrich: 34 Success by 2 degrees!
[22:42] <@BradGM> You get to the cell, which is rather cold. The Guard stands inside, sword drawn. Grimmsson is lying on his dirty and humid pile of hay. He seems weaken, thin, his bare feets and hands were seems to be been nsnapped by roddens.s
[22:42] * +Siluvaine does the same. Who knew they'd look back with longing on the smells of Altdorf?
[22:43] <@BradGM> Guaard "Look alive, criminal, you have visitors."
[22:45] * +Siluvaine looks over Grimmson.
[22:47] <@BradGM> He truns around slowly, coughing. He spit some thick, yellow mucus and look at you all, with a stare of not knowing who are you and why you're there.
[22:48] <@BradGM> Grimmsson "W..whut?"
[22:48] <+Siluvaine> "We need your help."
[22:49] * +Aithorn holds up Edgerrin's sword enough to show Grimmsson's symbol etched on the blade. "We need to know how many of these there are and what happened to them."
[22:51] <@BradGM> Grimmsson "Oh *coughs* leave me be, they brought me pain enough.."
[22:54] <+Siluvaine> "The swords did?"

[22:01] <Ulrich> "no thanks"
[22:02] <Ulrich> (sorry was a bit afk.)
[22:03] <BradGM> You keep moving up,, and you enter what seems to be more of a middle class area, shops, eateries, there's even a few children parks and a few trees here and there.
[22:03] * Ulrich keeps walking, making sure to keep his money pouch well protected
[22:03] <Ulrich> (are there children playing in the park?)

[22:07] <BradGM> You arrive to a set of walls, past that, you enter a whole new place. Past that, you enter the Temple Quarter,where you quickly see the Temple of Verena, a rather large and beatiful structure.

[22:17] * Ulrich knocks on the front door

[22:21] <BradGM> You wait outside. nothing happens.

[22:47] <BradGM> ((doing waht now?))
[22:49] * Ulrich will wait around to let the local priesthood know I am in the city.
[22:50] <BradGM> It takes an hour until a well build and stern man enters the chapel "What in the name of Ulric are you doing here?" *He looks around at the head and yourself.
[22:53] <Ulrich> "I was concecrating the kill to Ulric, Hello, I am Ulrich."
[22:54] * Ulrich gets up to shake the mans hand
[22:57] <BradGM> ((lemme get the name fhte guy.))
[23:00] <BradGM> Priest "I am Father Erik Fuchs, High Priest in Nuln."
[23:01] <Ulrich> "I am just a Lowely priest, Good to meet you my Lord"
[23:02] <BradGM> Fuchs "A good kill. Where was it?"
[23:05] <Ulrich> "on a boat, of all things. damned thing got one o those giant horns stuck in a strut"
[23:07] <Ulrich> "My Dwarf slayer friend split it down the spin as it tried to free itself, it was a good kill"
[23:07] <BradGM> Fuchs "Ah, you did not kill it?"
[23:09] <BradGM> He seems a bit sadden by the news.
[23:11] <Ulrich> "I unfortunately was tied up in helping to kill another"
[23:11] <BradGM> Ulrich "Ah, and it fell into the Reik, I suspect?"
[23:17] <Ulrich> "the captian of the boat was less than pious lets just say. He would not allow the keeping of the rest of the dead as offerings"
[23:17] * Ulrich frowns deeply at the memory of the confrontation
[23:19] <BradGM> Fuchs "Still, a watery grave was too good for them. Still, we must celebrate your arrival! With the beginning of gunpowder week, the temple of Sigmar will once again parade it's wealth to get the faithful's money and decaden spirt!"
[23:24] <Ulrich> "Thank you, The temple of Sigmar?"
[23:25] <BradGM> Fuchs "Yes! Always displaying wealth in place of religious conviction! Such weakness is sickening!"
[23:26] <Ulrich> "you do not have good standings with them?"
[23:28] <BradGM> Fuchs "Quite noot! Our brothers of the White Wolf are quite zealous and so I can be allowed to be more vocal than usual with them around."
[23:31] <Ulrich> "ah, I see."
[23:32] <Ulrich> "strength in numbers..so to speak."
[23:33] <Ulrich> "speaking of which, I am with, I must admit rather strange, band of friends, which have important business within the city."
[23:34] <Ulrich> If I could at some time call on you for assistance or advice on a few mattes I would be greatly in your debt."
[23:35] <BradGM> Fuchs "Of course, bu first, let us meet our Knightly brothers."
[23:35] <Ulrich> "none of us have been to this city before, and as you said, festivities are going to be rather active for the near future."
[23:35] <Ulrich> "Of course"
[23:35] * Ulrich signals for him to lead the way
[23:36] <BradGM> *End of Session***
[20:20] <@BradGM> After a brief investigation, it was concluded that the young Alptraum was innocent of the murder; mostly because Leitdorf was brutally killed, his face now but a mass of gnawed flesh, and the murderer left behind a tooth, which Alptraum does not lack.
[20:21] <@BradGM> An almost unseen line of blood droplets was also discovered, which indicated that the Killer discreetly left the vessel. The next day also had its event as an attacked coach was seen on the shoreline, and a party went to investigate it under a light rain. Apart from remains and a single body, nothing was found; coins were lying all over, markings of dubious nature were everywhere, telltale signs of Beastsmen being the culprits.
[20:21] <@BradGM> The Party did find an invitation to the Countess’ Ball as well. Arriving finally at Nuln, which smells as foul as Altdorf, the party asked about for a few locations before following Aithorn to the Happy Bear Inn, a dockside establishment which has a very good reputation amongst the Emperor Wilhelm’s Marines and Crew.
[20:22] <@BradGM> As you enter, the sound of chatter from the thirty pairs inside the large interior stop and turn around to look you over.
[20:24] * +Siluvaine glances around, wondering if all new arrivals get this treament, or if someone hates dwarves or something.
[20:24] * +Ulrich looks them over back
[20:24] <+Siluvaine> ((damnit, quick brb))
[20:25] <@BradGM> ((No, usual thing when you get inside a new tavern; you guys simply don't move about wehn drinking.))
[20:25] * +Aithorn glances around trying to see if there is a table or two next to each other that they can grab
[20:29] <@BradGM> There's tables about, as the place is large enough that is is only half-filled.
[20:30] <@BradGM> After a moment, the patrons return to thier drink and talk.
[20:33] * +Aithorn starts moving through the crowd towards a table
[20:33] <@BradGM> You're barely sat down that a servant comes around "Welcome folks. What'll be for you?"
[20:35] <Alexi> n
[20:36] <+Siluvaine> ((sorr about that, had to get sometihngdone real quick)
[20:36] <+Ulrich> "ale, please"
[20:36] * +Aithorn orders an ale as well, sadly not likely as good as the Emperor Wilhelm
[20:37] <+Aithorn> 's
[20:37] * Alexi will order ale
[20:37] * +Siluvaine does the same and waits for the servant to leave. "Plans?"
[20:38] <@BradGM> He nods it down and leave, returning within two minutes.
[20:38] <@BradGM> 3 pennies each.
[20:39] * +Siluvaine sips the ale carefully.
[20:40] <@BradGM> "Just call for Petr if you need anything."
[20:40] <+Siluvaine> "Before you go, do you have rooms available?"
[20:40] <+Aithorn> "We need to scout a graveyard and find a swordsmith or garrison clerk. It probably be good to know what this ball is as well."
[20:41] <@BradGM> Petr "Yes, the best rooms on the WaterFront!"
[20:43] <@BradGM> Petr "15 pennies for the common room, 15 shillings for a double room, and a 30 shillings for a privae room."
[20:44] * +Siluvaine tries not to wince, really.
[20:44] <@BradGM> Petr "We also have private rooms if you'd prefer some calm when drinking and eating."
[20:45] <+Ulrich> (per night right?)
[20:46] <@BradGM> Petr "Only a Crown a night, eveng ot your own servant. Tip not included, of course. Hehe." *He grins, and you can see he's wearing a silver teeth.*
[20:46] <@BradGM> ((yes, per night))
[20:47] * +Siluvaine is surprised he doesn't have gold teeth with the rates he's charging. "Very well, thank you."
[20:48] <@BradGM> ((He's only a servant))
[20:48] <+Aithorn> "Siluvaine, if you opened up your own inn here, you could send the money back to Marienburg and buy out the other merchants in short order"
[20:49] <+Siluvaine> "Quite likely."
[20:52] <+Siluvaine> "Are we going to stick together, or split up to cover more ground?"
[20:55] <+Aithorn> "We've been attacked by beastmen and had a murder happen under our nose, I would go together. What do others think?"
[21:00] <+Aithorn> "We can leave my kinsmen to safeguard Magister Marsner while she prepares for her ritual, hopefully we can accomplish our piece as quickly."
[21:01] <+Siluvaine> "I am sure something will delay us. That seems to be our luck."
[21:02] <+Ulrich> (stick together)
[21:02] <@Edgerrin> "That be fine with me."
[21:04] <+Siluvaine> "Brother Stefan first then?"
[21:05] <+Aithorn> "He could save us a lot of walking. Sounds like a fine idea to me.""
[21:06] * +Siluvaine lets the Magister know of our plans, and akss if we need to be on the look out for any materials for the ritual if its to be done here.
[21:07] <@BradGM> Marsner was with you all this time, simply being silent as the tomb.
[21:08] <@BradGM> Marsner "I shall visit the Gardens of Morr for this. I had planned to stay there."
[21:08] <+Siluvaine> ((not creepy at all!))
[21:09] <Alexi> ((I've been there in Vermintide. I dun like that place))
[21:09] <@BradGM> Marsner "I can arrange for my 'keepers' to have celles for them as well, if they bear ill sleeping with the dead."
[21:10] <+Aithorn> ((is it a name for a graveyard? or a temple? or are they the same thing for Morr-ians?))
[21:10] <Alexi> ((sure seemed like both to me))
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((Yeah cemetary, usually got a temple there as well.))
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((There was one in Middenheim.))
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((And in Altdorf))
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((Just..not a place to really go, usually..))
[21:11] * +Siluvaine nods. "I'm sure that will be fine."
[21:11] <+Aithorn> ((or rather, just once ;))
[21:12] <+Ulrich> "if we got our lodging settled, i'll be finishing my ale and heading over to the Temple of Ulrich for a while. I ned to concicrate this beasty head."
[21:12] <@BradGM> Maedhros "I can tolerate the smell of death, but I cannot stand this filthy stench that pollutes this area."
[21:13] <+Siluvaine> "It can always be worse."
[21:14] <+Aithorn> "Then you should have no problems. The humans stay away from these Gardens of Morr."
[21:14] <+Ulrich> "for good reason"
[21:15] <@BradGM> Lindara "You sleep near your dead?"
[21:15] <+Ulrich> "do not tally there for too long, there are worse things than zombies in them so i've been told"
[21:19] <+Siluvaine> "I am sure the Gardens here suffer no such troubles."
[21:19] <Alexi> "Vell, hyu kin hope."
[21:20] <+Aithorn> "Do we know where to find this Brother Stefan?"
[21:20] <@BradGM> Marsner "Mere peasant superstition, I assure you."
[21:21] <+Siluvaine> "He's the Steward at the Iron Dungeon."
[21:23] <@BradGM> (( http://dark-heresy.wikispaces.com/file/view/cityofNuln.JPG/599926358/cityofNuln.JPG ))
[21:23] <@BradGM> ((Not that your characters know the city, 'mind.))
[21:24] <@BradGM> ((With luck, it'll turn into a street fight!))
[21:24] <Alexi> ((Axe will fight the street! Axe knows no fear!))
[21:26] <@BradGM> ((Well, make those gossip rolls))
[21:27] <+Aithorn> "The Iron Dungeon? Sounds easy enough to find. Getting in may be a different story, but we'll leave that to the minstrels."
[21:27] <+Siluvaine> !dhroll 63
[21:27] <@Diceling> Siluvaine: 24 Success by 3 degrees!
[21:27] <@BradGM> ((Hehehe))
[21:27] <@BradGM> (((What, no!))
[21:27] <+Siluvaine> "Our letter of introduction should help."
[21:29] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, you call Petr, and he tells you that the Iron Tower is the big tower past the Great Bridge.
[21:29] * +Ulrich leaves for the Temple of Ulric to take care of the beastman head, pray, and introduce himself to the local Sect.
[21:30] <@BradGM> Roll gossip Ulric, as you didn't get it last session.
[21:30] <+Siluvaine> "Well, so much for staying together."
[21:30] <@BradGM> I guess he's a...*put on sunglasses.* Lone Wolf.))
[21:31] <+Ulrich> )
[21:31] <@BradGM> Time's about 1 PM

[21:32] <+Ulrich> !dhroll 47
[21:32] <@Diceling> Ulrich: 44 Success by 0 degrees!
[21:35] <@BradGM> You're told to reach the Temple Quarter, by simply climbing up toward the Palace.
[21:35] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "To the Tower I suppose."
[21:38] <@BradGM> It still rains outside, but you can see a tower sticking out in the middle of the Reik like a finger pointing toward the sky. From where you stand, it seems to be bleeding some dark, oragne-red blood from the ironed windows and small platforms here and there.
[21:41] * +Aithorn shudders involuntarily at the tower as they make their way through the streets
[21:41] <@BradGM> You can walk on the waterfront, to reach the Tower.
[21:41] <+Aithorn> ((what is our smell du jour? still rotting meat?))
[21:41] <@BradGM> ((Aw, well if you insists..))
[21:41] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10
[21:41] <@Diceling> BradGM: 2
[21:41] <@BradGM> ((damn, almost a 3!))
[21:42] * +Siluvaine sighs at the rain and covers up as much as she can and heads off to the tower.
[21:42] <@BradGM> It smells like manure!
[21:42] <@BradGM> WET manure!
[21:44] * +Siluvaine grimaces and holds the handkerchief to her hand as she makes her way to the Tower.
[21:44] <@BradGM> You past near the Great Bridge, the only Bridge that crossed the Reik completely at its widest point. Across the large road, you reach the Handelbezirk quarter, where you get into heavy chariot traffic.
[21:46] <@BradGM> This palce seems to be mostly nice merchants and fancy restaurants and 'café' places.
[21:46] * @Edgerrin feels right at home
[21:47] * Alexi tugs at his collar
[21:48] * +Siluvaine figures it will go back down a bit as they get closer to the Iron Tower.
[21:49] * +Aithorn is trying not to get run off by a chariot as they follow the river
[21:49] <@BradGM> You loose an hour just moving throught, as the ehavy traffic and the numerous people unloadings goods, are blocking the way and don'T care. Alsmot you can hear insults and talk backs in al the 'human' languages in the Old Wolrd; Reikspiel, Estalians, Tileans, Bretonnans.
[21:51] <@BradGM> You reach a small bridge, which a plaque indicates is the Glory Bridge, which corssed to Aver island. The Island itself seems to be just a field with a dozen thightly grouped trees. a small fortified barracks and a tavern called the Barking Dog. The Taverns has a set of double doors, like a barn, in which the main door is located.
[21:53] * +Siluvaine looks around. "SOme sort of park maybe?"
[21:55] <@BradGM> As you are closer, you can see that the Iron Tower is actually made of Stone. There are metal parts, mostly the grim gargoyles, the barred on the few windows, and the ramp around the vigil-occupied small watch deck.
[21:55] <@BradGM> You must past the Iron Bridge, which is as sinister of the Tower.
[21:56] * +Siluvaine turns and trudges in direction of the Iron Bridge.
[21:57] * +Aithorn tries to take as long as possible a walk through the pleasant greenery before leaving for the Iron Bridge
[21:58] <@BradGM> The road seems to keep going o the South shore of the Reik, but the Tower itself occupied most of the small island. Surrounded by an iron fence, the inside grounds are covered in a thin cover of mud. There is a pyre, itself also fenced, to the side.
[22:00] * +Siluvaine looks for signs of guards as she heads for the tower.
[22:00] * +Aithorn approaches the door trying to not look like an armed-to-the-teeth mercenary and looks for a door knocker or a sentry.
[22:01] * @Edgerrin doesnt bother with subtlty
[22:01] <@BradGM> There is a door-knocker yes. Using it, the door opens after a moment.
[22:01] <@BradGM> Guard "What is your business here?"
[22:02] <+Siluvaine> "We're here to meet with Brother Stefan."
[22:03] <@BradGM> Guard "On what business?"
[22:04] <+Aithorn> "The Church of Sigmar has sent us here."
[22:05] <+Siluvaine> "We have a letter of introduction from Witchhunter Hoffer."
[22:05] <@BradGM> Guard "Hmm..wait here."
[22:05] <@BradGM> The door slams shut. It takes a good 10 minutes before it opens up again "Come in, follow me."
[22:07] * +Aithorn enters the tower before removing his hood and trying to shake off as much rainwater as he can without getting it all over the others
[22:08] * @Edgerrin shakes the rain off like a dog.
[22:09] * Alexi doesn't bother and just drips where he stands
[22:09] * +Siluvaine lowers her hood once inside and looks around, following the guard.
[22:10] <@BradGM> The Guard takes you inside, the smell is rather foul. You get a couple of floors up, into an office with both a window and a small desk. There is a old man, perhaps 50, quite pale and reminicent of a scibe rather than any sort of Priest or WitchHunter. He is holding a pair of lenses over his eyes, looking at some papers.
[22:12] <+Siluvaine> "Brother Stefan?"
[22:12] <@BradGM> Stefan "Yes. So what is this about?"
[22:12] <+Ulrich> !dhroll 57
[22:13] <@Diceling> Ulrich: 18 Success by 3 degrees!
[22:13] * +Siluvaine pulls the letter of introduction out and hands it over.
[22:13] <@BradGM> He looks up from his papers, at the lot of you, before taking the letter.
[22:14] <@BradGM> Stefan "Hm. Dark times, still."
[22:15] <+Siluvaine> "Quite,"
[22:16] <@BradGM> Stefan "So what are you course of action? With Gunpower week starting tomorrow, things will be rather chaotic."
[22:17] <+Siluvaine> "We hope to find the owner of hte sword that we found. With that we might find the Chalice."
[22:18] <+Aithorn> "We found something north of Altdorf, we were hoping you could tell us a bit more about a sword we found."
[22:21] <@BradGM> Stefan "I'm no armourer, but let's see it."
[22:22] <+Siluvaine> "The markings on it are from Grunbar Grimmsson."
[22:25] <@BradGM> Stefan "Ah yes, him."
[22:26] <+Siluvaine> "Our next step is to find him. Perhaps he'll recognize the blade."
[22:28] <@BradGM> Stefan "Guard, take them to Grimmsson's cell."
[22:29] <+Siluvaine> "Cell?"
[22:30] <+Aithorn> "What was his crime?"
[22:30] <+Ulrich> !dhroll 54
[22:30] <@Diceling> Ulrich: 16 Success by 3 degrees!
[22:30] <+Siluvaine> ((could be cell like a monastic cell))
[22:31] <+Aithorn> ((in a place called the Iron Dungeon?))
[22:31] <@BradGM> Stefan "Yes, he's been arrested by Orders of the Countess herself. He's ben in our coldest cell."
[22:31] <+Siluvaine> "Is this a recent development?"
[22:34] <@BradGM> Stefan "He's been here for 3 months, he should be dead by month's end. His lungs."
[22:35] <+Siluvaine> "Ah, so not a result of the artifact."
[22:35] <@BradGM> Stefan "I doutb he knows anything about this matter or anything even related to it."
[22:36] * +Siluvaine nods. "Well, its a good thing we got here when we did."
[22:38] * +Aithorn if we keep doing things like this, we may be labeled 'disturbers of the peace'. "Let's go see what Grimmsson has to say."
[22:38] <@BradGM> You get taken up in the tower, as the smell of sweat, desease and dead is all around you. The Guard is using a torch to move, as there is no natural light coming from the outside.
[22:40] * +Aithorn wraps his hood over his nose and tries to keep to the center of the hallway
[22:40] <+Ulrich> !dhroll 54
[22:40] <@Diceling> Ulrich: 34 Success by 2 degrees!
[22:42] <@BradGM> You get to the cell, which is rather cold. The Guard stands inside, sword drawn. Grimmsson is lying on his dirty and humid pile of hay. He seems weaken, thin, his bare feets and hands were seems to be been nsnapped by roddens.s
[22:42] * +Siluvaine does the same. Who knew they'd look back with longing on the smells of Altdorf?
[22:43] <@BradGM> Guaard "Look alive, criminal, you have visitors."
[22:45] * +Siluvaine looks over Grimmson.
[22:47] <@BradGM> He truns around slowly, coughing. He spit some thick, yellow mucus and look at you all, with a stare of not knowing who are you and why you're there.
[22:48] <@BradGM> Grimmsson "W..whut?"
[22:48] <+Siluvaine> "We need your help."
[22:49] * +Aithorn holds up Edgerrin's sword enough to show Grimmsson's symbol etched on the blade. "We need to know how many of these there are and what happened to them."
[22:51] <@BradGM> Grimmsson "Oh *coughs* leave me be, they brought me pain enough.."
[22:54] <+Siluvaine> "The swords did?"

[21:47] <BradGM> You cut throught the slums, where buildings are made of rickedy wood and the citizens seems to be your usual scum.
[21:48] <BradGM> Near some dump of a tavern called the Resting Reaver, some weaseliy character stand in an allaey "Hey Boss, How 'bout a meat pie! 2 pennies!"
[22:01] <Ulrich> "no thanks"
[22:02] <Ulrich> (sorry was a bit afk.)
[22:03] <BradGM> You keep moving up,, and you enter what seems to be more of a middle class area, shops, eateries, there's even a few children parks and a few trees here and there.
[22:03] * Ulrich keeps walking, making sure to keep his money pouch well protected
[22:03] <Ulrich> (are there children playing in the park?)
[22:06] <BradGM> (no it's raining)
[22:06] * Ulrich keeps walking
[22:06] <Ulrich> (looks for an alchemical or exoctics store to replentish some of his supplies)
[22:07] <BradGM> You arrive to a set of walls, past that, you enter a whole new place. Past that, you enter the Temple Quarter,where you quickly see the Temple of Verena, a rather large and beatiful structure.
[22:08] <Ulrich> "hmm, Verenians..."
[22:10] * Ulrich keeps walking
[22:11] <BradGM> Yuo walk around, You see numerous temples..but no Ulric. Roll gossip+10
[22:12] <Ulrich> !dhroll 57
[22:13] <Ulrich> (18)
[22:13] <Ulrich> (main room)
[22:14] <BradGM> You're indicated to a side street, where you find the Temple of Ulric being nothing more than a sturdy stone chapel with a connected building.
[22:16] <BradGM> It is rather practical rather than ornated.
[22:16] <Ulrich> "well, here we are"
[22:17] * Ulrich knocks on the front door
[22:21] <Ulrich> (that it?)
[22:21] <BradGM> You wait outside. nothing happens.
[22:26] <BradGM> Entering, you found yourself in a chilly nate, where large Wolf skins is covering the walls.
[22:27] <Ulrich> "Why would anyone kill Wolves so large..."
[22:27] <Ulrich> "hello?"
[22:28] * Ulrich dumps his trophy sack by the door and looks around
[22:30] <BradGM> Roll intelligence.
[22:30] <Ulrich> !dhroll 54
[22:31] <Ulrich> (16)
[22:32] <BradGM> Well, it's still ealry afternnon..perhasp they are still eating or napping?
[22:32] * Ulrich looks for a place to concecrate the kill
[22:33] <BradGM> There's an altar.
[22:36] * Ulrich will place the head on the alter and pray
[22:38] <BradGM> Roll Theology
[22:40] <Ulrich> (i don't have that)
[22:40] <Ulrich> (oh, wait yeah i do, lol)
[22:41] <Ulrich> (34)
[22:43] <BradGM> You do the proper rituals and incantations to pelase Ulric and consecrate the kill in His name.
[22:44] <Ulrich> (sweet)
[22:47] <BradGM> ((doing waht now?))
[22:49] * Ulrich will wait around to let the local priesthood know I am in the city.
[22:50] <BradGM> It takes an hour until a well build and stern man enters the chapel "What in the name of Ulric are you doing here?" *He looks around at the head and yourself.
[22:53] <Ulrich> "I was concecrating the kill to Ulric, Hello, I am Ulrich."
[22:54] * Ulrich gets up to shake the mans hand
[22:57] <BradGM> ((lemme get the name fhte guy.))
[23:00] <BradGM> Priest "I am Father Erik Fuchs, High Priest in Nuln."
[23:01] <Ulrich> "I am just a Lowely priest, Good to meet you my Lord"
[23:02] <BradGM> Fuchs "A good kill. Where was it?"
[23:05] <Ulrich> "on a boat, of all things. damned thing got one o those giant horns stuck in a strut"
[23:07] <Ulrich> "My Dwarf slayer friend split it down the spin as it tried to free itself, it was a good kill"
[23:07] <BradGM> Fuchs "Ah, you did not kill it?"
[23:09] <BradGM> He seems a bit sadden by the news.
[23:11] <Ulrich> "I unfortunately was tied up in helping to kill another"
[23:11] <BradGM> Ulrich "Ah, and it fell into the Reik, I suspect?"
[23:17] <Ulrich> "the captian of the boat was less than pious lets just say. He would not allow the keeping of the rest of the dead as offerings"
[23:17] * Ulrich frowns deeply at the memory of the confrontation
[23:19] <BradGM> Fuchs "Still, a watery grave was too good for them. Still, we must celebrate your arrival! With the beginning of gunpowder week, the temple of Sigmar will once again parade it's wealth to get the faithful's money and decaden spirt!"
[23:24] <Ulrich> "Thank you, The temple of Sigmar?"
[23:25] <BradGM> Fuchs "Yes! Always displaying wealth in place of religious conviction! Such weakness is sickening!"
[23:26] <Ulrich> "you do not have good standings with them?"
[23:28] <BradGM> Fuchs "Quite noot! Our brothers of the White Wolf are quite zealous and so I can be allowed to be more vocal than usual with them around."
[23:31] <Ulrich> "ah, I see."
[23:32] <Ulrich> "strength in numbers..so to speak."
[23:33] <Ulrich> "speaking of which, I am with, I must admit rather strange, band of friends, which have important business within the city."
[23:34] <Ulrich> If I could at some time call on you for assistance or advice on a few mattes I would be greatly in your debt."
[23:35] <BradGM> Fuchs "Of course, bu first, let us meet our Knightly brothers."
[23:35] <Ulrich> "none of us have been to this city before, and as you said, festivities are going to be rather active for the near future."
[23:35] <Ulrich> "Of course"
[23:35] * Ulrich signals for him to lead the way
