[20:36] <@BradGM> The morning started a little off; First, Siluvaine did not return from her evening with Saer, then the owner informed you that Aithron left yesterday afternoon for a ‘personal matter’. Deciding to the Temple of Ulric rather than the couple of Witch Hunters whom they have letter of introduction/presentation for, the Party was suddenly joined by Siluvaine as they left the Imperial Inn.
[20:37] <@BradGM> . Nearing the Temple, the Party involved themselves in a small mugging-gone-wrong, helping the Wizard victim taking care of his attackers. After the dust settled, the Wizard introduced himself as Wolfgang Scheunacht, Master Wizard of the Bright (Fire) Order. They declined his offer of a bodyguard job, but informed them he can be reached at the Bright College or the Imperial Fortress if the Party changed their minds.
[20:37] <@BradGM> . At the Ulrican Temple, the Pary was struck by the presence of snow and the cold air; The large white timberwolf was just filling at this point. They met Gerhard Schiller, High Priest of Ulric in Altdorf and informed him of the current situation with the Red Flayer. Without much ado, Gerhard allowed the Party to search the Temple’s archives for clues, as himself seems more at home in the deep wood than in a smelling, dirty, over-populated Metropolis.
[20:39] <@BradGM> Gerhard "Please, follow me." *He takes a small hall and goes downstairs. "I'm afraid our archives are not as sustainable at the one in the Temple of Sigmar or the Palace, but there are documents dating from the time of Sigmar Himself!"
[20:39] <@Aithorn> ((old papers! good thing one of us can read)
[20:40] <@BradGM> ((two.5 of you; Ulrich and Sil, and soon Edge))
[20:41] <@Siluvaine> "That's good to hear. This may be our only chance to find the item."
[20:42] <@BradGM> He takes a candle and its pan, and enters the Archives. It is a mass of papers, parchemins, illuminated books, some paper are even locked behind a glass box..there is not alot of dust, but it is cold, quite cold, which may explain the well preserved nature of the documents.
[20:43] * @Siluvaine follows along, quarterstaff tapping on the floor occasionally. "Is there some sort of..order?"
[20:43] <@Edgerrin> "Feels like one of me halls down 'ere"
[20:44] <@Aithorn> ((it probably was dwarven originally))
[20:45] <@BradGM> ((yeah the Temple of Ulric is very old, just that it lost in power with the times))
[20:46] <@BradGM> Gerhard "I'm afraid we have been decades without permanents scribes. Most of our archives in the last 140 or 50 years were compiled in Middenheim."
[20:47] <@BradGM> And the Ulrican journal bit Prof. Zweistein found was dated 150 years ago.
[20:48] <@Siluvaine> "Compiled..in middenheim? As in the material is there?"
[20:51] <@BradGM> Gerhard "There is a daily journal, which is brought to Middenheim yearly and a report is complited there for our archives, while the journal is kept there, yes."
[20:52] <@Siluvaine> "Ah, well, hopefully we'll be able to find the information here..."
[20:52] * @Siluvaine looks at all the papers and sighs.
[20:53] <@Edgerrin> "If ye can point me in the right way I can help look. I ain't much use atreading yet."
[20:53] <@Edgerrin> "Gimme a picture of what we be looking fer."
[20:55] <@BradGM> Gerhard "If you are looking for a deamic artefact, I must warn you; you will find none here. They are usually stored elsewhere in Altdorf."
[20:55] * @Siluvaine describes the dagger as much as possible.
[20:55] <@Edgerrin> "So I just be looking for somthing with a dagger on it. Pretty obvious. Thought it might be hid more."
[20:56] <@Aithorn> ((in the famous words of Isaac Asimov "It pays to be obvious, especially if you have a reputation for subtlety.))
[20:57] <@Siluvaine> "well, unless you can suddenly read..."
[20:57] * @Siluvaine pulls out a scrap of paper and writes the phrase "Dagger of Yul K’chaum" for Edgerrin to pattern match.
[20:57] <@Edgerrin> "Not yet but I'm getter there."
[20:58] <@Edgerrin> "ah thanks missy. this helps a lot."
[20:58] * @Edgerrin starts looksing for something that matches
[20:59] <@BradGM> Roll search; Edge, you can't read, but Sil's note helps a little; roll it with a -10. You'll need a certain numbers of DoS to get it. Each roll equals 3 hours.
[21:00] <@BradGM> ((Sil can roll too)

[21:01] <@Aithorn> ((that's how *I* roll))
[21:01] * @Siluvaine starts the search, shuddering at the thought of being stuck here all day.
[21:01] <@Edgerrin> ((thank you *I*nquisitor)
[21:03] <@BradGM> You spend some time looking around. Edgerrin seems to be digging books after books with the word 'Dagger' and 'of' lot
[21:03] <@BradGM> 3 hours passes.
[21:03] * @Edgerrin will stack the books up for Sil to look at.
[21:03] <@BradGM> It is about midday. You can roll again or do something else.

[21:05] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 72 Failure by 1 degree!
[21:05] <@Siluvaine> ((Bah!))
[21:05] <@BradGM> Edgerrin, you feel like you're actually good for searching libraries and Archives, compared to the hapless Siluvaine. you you flips the pages of and small book, you suddenly see the exact wording "Dagger of Yul K'chaum"!
[21:06] <@Edgerrin> "Eureka. I think I gound sumtinhg."
[21:06] * @Edgerrin holds out the books for the others to see.
[21:06] <@BradGM> He holds a small book.
[21:07] * @Siluvaine takes the book to look it over.
[21:08] <@BradGM> It is a journal. You recognized the writing as the same from the bit of the journal in Middenheim.
[21:11] * @Siluvaine starts reading the section. "Well, it seems familiar."
[21:12] <@Edgerrin> "anything that be helpful?"
[21:12] <@BradGM> He writes that he manages to secure the Dagger and brought it to 'Illuminator Stauz' so it "can be forever out of bound from any and all forces in this Plane."
[21:14] * @Siluvaine glances around. "Does anyone know what an Illuminator is?"
[21:15] <@Siluvaine> "And what do they mena by out of bounds?"
[21:15] * @Edgerrin shakes his head no
[21:16] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, you can roll common know (elves) -30
[21:17] <@Siluvaine> !dhroll 20
[21:17] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 19 Success by 0 degrees!
[21:17] <@BradGM> You heard of that term; it is a rank of Wizard is a College of Magic.
[21:18] <@Siluvaine> "Well, I hope their records are better kept."
[21:18] <@Aithorn> ((can we re-name her siri?))
[21:20] <@BradGM> ((not after she can't look well in an archives compared to the illeterate Dwarf slayer with a hand written note he doens't understand))
[21:22] <@Siluvaine> "Illuminator is a Wzard rank. We might be able to talk to Dieter Klemperer for more information."
[21:22] <@Edgerrin> (( I be Edjumacat ed now))
[21:22] <@BradGM> ((Well, you did spend 6 hours almost reading))
[21:24] * @Siluvaine stretches and looks around. "I wonder how long we've been down here."
[21:25] <@Edgerrin> "I be just learning ta read don't make me tell time too."
[21:26] <@BradGM> WEll, it's beena while, so you might be feeling a little hungry/thirsty.
[21:26] <@Edgerrin> "Do we have the informations we be needin'?"
[21:27] * @Edgerrin looks at a few more books trying to make out the words
[21:27] <@BradGM> Roll intelligence Edgerrin
[21:27] <@Edgerrin> !dhroll 38
[21:27] <Diceling> Edgerrin: 75 Failure by 3 degrees!
[21:28] <@BradGM> It's still gibberish to you.
[21:28] <@Edgerrin> (another time :) )
[21:28] <@BradGM> Or maybe it's just classical?
[21:30] <@Edgerrin> ((thats on the lsit to learn too ))
[21:30] <@BradGM> ((man, an educated party, how fun!))
[21:30] * @Edgerrin looks at the elves. 1"We be needin' anything else?"
[21:31] * @Siluvaine considers all the books and scrolls in the room. "I don't know, but we have other options to look for I think."
[21:32] <@Edgerrin> "Where ta t hen?"
[21:33] <@Siluvaine> "Food or the colleges."
[21:35] * @Edgerrin looks at Aithorn. 1"How bout you elf friend?"
[21:37] <@BradGM> Oh, Aithron's not here, actually.
[21:37] * @Siluvaine shrugs. "Lunch I suppose."
[21:37] <@Edgerrin> (oh)
[21:37] <@Edgerrin> "Lunch it be"
[21:37] * @Siluvaine gets up and starts to look for Gerhard or any other priest.
[21:38] * @Edgerrin follow
[21:38] <@Edgerrin> will follow
[21:39] <@BradGM> You get back to the upper hall. High Priest Gerhard is discussing with an old Nobleman of good stature. At the back, near the hall leading to the entrance, you see Aithorn patting Gerhard's large white timberwolf.
[21:39] <@Edgerrin> "Ya gota new friend?"
[21:41] * @Siluvaine walks over to Aithorn. "Found anything?"
[21:43] <@Aithorn> "Only that he likes being scratched behind the ears. And that some other elves have been in the area recently which is unusual."
[21:43] <@Siluvaine> "Avoiding the fighting?"
[21:45] <@Aithorn> "A possibility, but that depends on if they were my cousins or yours. When we have a moment's peace I intend to find out, but right now our focus is needed here."
[21:46] <@BradGM> ((OOOOOOooohhhh)))
[21:46] <@BradGM> ((cat fight!))
[21:46] * @Siluvaine nods slowly. "We might have found a lead. But its pointing to anther person."
[21:49] <@Aithorn> "Hopefully that person is about to eat dinner. I have spent last night and part of the morning searching for the passing elves where I met Carcharoth and Her Schiller I was hoping he could tell me where you were in the city but you found me instead."
[21:50] <@Siluvaine> "Carcharoth?"
[21:51] <@Siluvaine> ((quick afk))
[21:52] * @Aithorn scratches him behind the ears again before standing up, "Yes, didn't you meet him as well? He's quite the story teller. But enough about the pleasant things in life, where does the clue go?"
[21:54] <@Siluvaine> "Back to the colleges of magic."
[21:54] <@Edgerrin> "He aint me type."
[21:56] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10
[21:56] <Diceling> BradGM: 1
[21:56] <@Aithorn> "Your loss. But at least the colleges are close by, we should see what we find before the day is over."
[21:57] * @Edgerrin nods
[21:59] * @Siluvaine glances over to see if Schiller look to want to talk to them before they leave.
[22:00] <@BradGM> Gerhard excuses himself to the old nobleman, seeing as you look at him. "Leaving for the moment? Have you done any progress?"
[22:01] <@Siluvaine> "We think so, enough to give us another place to look for now. If this doesn't pan out, I'm afraid we'll have to return here to search more."
[22:02] <@BradGM> Gerhard "Very Well. I am in Altdorf for the week, I must make way for Middenheim by then. Glory to Ulric!"
[22:03] <@BradGM> He make the paws symbol of Ulric and returns to the Nobleman."
[22:04] * @Siluvaine turns amd heads in the general direction of the Colleges.
[22:04] * @Edgerrin follows
[22:05] * @Aithorn returns the gesture and then follows along with Sil and Edge
[22:06] <@Aithorn> Once they get out onto the street and into the stink, Aithorn mutters "I didn't miss this part."
[22:07] * @Siluvaine gets her herb scented handkerchief out and holds it up to her nose as she moves on. "You missed a fight earlier."
[22:08] <@BradGM> Well, it still smells as this morning; farm animals, like it's an open barn.
[22:08] <@BradGM> Indeed, there's a dead body where a couple of beggars are fighting open the pantaloons.
[22:08] <@BradGM> open=over
[22:09] <@BradGM> Let's keep it clean it's still daylight.
[22:09] <@Aithorn> (("fighting to open the pantaloons", yeah, let's keep it clean ;) ))
[22:09] <@BradGM> mid afternoon by the way!
[22:10] <@BradGM> ((yeah, I had a French thought for the pantaloons part, and got pour and over mizxed))
[22:11] <@Aithorn> "A fight? Did you go finding trouble without me? Is everybody alright?"
[22:11] * @Siluvaine moves on, heading towards the colleges of magic. She glances around, looking for signs of anyone following them or paying too close of attention. "Some ruffians setting on a wizard in the street."
[22:11] <@BradGM> You return to the Celestial College. Siluvaine it is as I described to you. Again, as you goes to knock a guard opens up and look you over "Yes, you're here to see...?"
[22:11] <@BradGM> Wait
[22:12] <@BradGM> no wsorry, go on.
[22:13] <@Siluvaine> "We're here to see Dieter Klemperer. Please tell him Siluvaine from the other day is here to talk to him again."
[22:14] <@BradGM> guard "Yes, do come in and wait in the lobby, while he's being checked up."
[22:15] <@BradGM> You are let in again, security seems quite lacking as before. After a few minutes, the Guard returns again "He's here, you can go see him. You remember the way?"
[22:17] * @Siluvaine glances around and tries to recall. "Down the hall, third on the right, up the left stairs for three floors and then the..second door on the left?"
[22:18] <@BradGM> Guard "That's right. Have a good afternoon y'lot."
[22:19] <@Aithorn> ((Then we get lost, and light a campfire in the hallway and sing kumbayah until someone finds us and gives us furhter directions
[22:19] <@Aithorn> ))
[22:19] <@Siluvaine> "You as well."
[22:20] * @Siluvaine heads down the hallway and follows the directions. "I wonder if its possible for the building to change.."
[22:20] * @Siluvaine continues to muse as she heads for Dieter's office.
[22:21] <@Aithorn> "It wouldn't be the first place to be not what we see."
[22:23] <@BradGM> You are not under escort or see anyone else as you reach the occult mile long door-filled corridor. You move in front of Dieter's door and you hear a "Come in." from within.
[22:24] * @Siluvaine lowers her hand before she knocks and enters.
[22:27] <@BradGM> His office is as you left it; Dieter is looking into his telescope out of a small window..that seems to be giving into a clear Nightsky. He doesn't bother to turn from his observation as you enter. "Welcome again. I expect news and demands."
[22:30] <@Siluvaine> "We were able to find a note in the Ulrican Temple that they were able to retrieve the dagger, but gave it to Illuminator Stauz to hide it where it would never be able to be found by forces on this plane."
[22:35] <@BradGM> Dieter "I have never heard of an Illuminator Stauz, but that would mean a Master Wizard of the Light College, and he have placed it in their Vault, to seal it from this reality.*
[22:36] <@Siluvaine> "Does..that mean we can just..forget about this, if its that safe?"
[22:37] * @Edgerrin smirks 1"Not bloody likely"
[22:38] <@Edgerrin> "Tis wishful thinkin' lass."
[22:39] <@BradGM> Dieter "If it was dormant when sealed and it was awaken during the events in Middenheim. It is still existing, hence dangerous."
[22:40] <@Aithorn> "If they put it somewhere then someone else can bring it back, some places are just harder to reach I guess."
[22:41] <@BradGM> ((No, just forget about it, it'll be ok!))
[22:41] <@BradGM> ((No need to go to adventure, just take a throwing knive to the knee and open up an tavern.))
[22:42] <@Siluvaine> "Well then. We have to confirm that its still there I suppose. Do you know anyone in the Light College that might be helpful?"
[22:42] <@Aithorn> ((Brad, that's what happens to all the frisbees in my car. Daemon possessed artefacts? We should be so lucky...))
[22:42] <@BradGM> ((Also,reading about champlain, in one of his last adventure, he took an arrow to the knee))
[22:42] <@BradGM> ((hahaha))
[22:45] <@Aithorn> "And if we may impose a bit more, directions to the Light College would be greatly appreciated as well."
[22:46] <@BradGM> Dieter "Naturally. I know of a member of the Bocage club who is an Illuminator. Illuminator Messner, good chess player."
[22:48] <@BradGM> Dieter "And now you'd appreciate an arrangement for a meeting."
[22:49] <@Siluvaine> "If you could. That seems to be the next step in our search."
[22:49] * Retrieving #shadowrun modes...
[22:50] <@BradGM> Dieter "I'll send him a message via the club for a meeting tonight. Would sundown would be acceptable?"
[22:52] <@Aithorn> "Very. Thank you kindly."
[22:52] <@BradGM> Dieter "Where are you lodged again?"
[22:55] <@Aithorn> "We have taken rooms at the Smoking Table at the moment."
[22:55] * @Siluvaine nods. "That would be fine, thank you."
[22:56] <@BradGM> ((IMperial Inn))
[22:56] <@Aithorn> ((what he said))
[22:57] <@BradGM> Dieter "I shall send a messsage to you there."
[22:58] <@Siluvaine> "Thank you very much."
[23:00] * @Siluvaine waits to see if Dieter has anything else, before heading off.
[23:01] <@BradGM> You leave as Deiter doesn't even turn around to look at you leave or bid you goodbye.
[23:03] * @Siluvaine follows the path back, nodding to the guard before heading outside, though she takes a deep breath before going out to the Altdorf air.
[23:04] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10
[23:04] <Diceling> BradGM: 3
[23:05] <@BradGM> The sun moved in the sky, and the wind brings the smell of sour milk in your nostrils.
[23:05] <@Edgerrin> 'This city almosts smells worse than a den of goblins."
[23:05] * @Siluvaine grimaces and starts back towards the the Inn.
[23:07] * DjGirls (hasan@195.142.zj.oz) has joined #shadowrun
[23:07] * DjGirls (hasan@195.142.zj.oz) Quit (User has been banned from DarkMyst)
[23:07] <@Aithorn> "At least the den of goblins won't keep you around for long time."
[23:09] <@Siluvaine> "Hmm?"
[23:11] <@BradGM> Back at the Inn, it seems to be almost empty, a third of the place is occupied. There seems to be having a few logs rather than chairs here and there.
[23:11] <@Aithorn> "Clearly someone has been sending more letters."
[23:12] <@BradGM> It's about 4 :30 PM
[23:14] * @Aithorn heads straight for a table and some food
[23:14] <@Siluvaine> "Maybe there was a chair tax and they decided to avoid some of it."
[23:16] <@BradGM> The servant brigns food and drink; he's got a piece of bloody cloth in one of his nostril.
[23:16] <@Aithorn> "Doesn't look like they took that one sitting down."
[23:17] <@Edgerrin> "what happened 'ere mate?"
[23:18] <@BradGM> Servant "Couple of ididots started a fight over sumthin' or another...had to kick'em out..took a few of us."
[23:18] * @Edgerrin nods
[23:19] * @Siluvaine takes a seat.
[23:19] * @Edgerrin sits also
[23:20] * @Aithorn nods appreciatively at the food and gets ready to go to work
[23:20] <@Siluvaine> "Well, nothing to do until we hear from Illuminator Messner."
[23:22] <@BradGM> You still got 4-5 hours until the meeting, doigng anything in perticular?
[23:22] <@BradGM> ((We might ahve that meet next session, but for now?))
[23:23] <@Aithorn> ((some careful grooming and clothes cleaning))
[23:23] <@Edgerrin> ((resting and eating))
[23:23] <@Siluvaine> ((oh. Slightly longer than expected Hmm))
[23:24] <@BradGM> Those who return to thier rooms to clean or whatever notice that seomone searched throught your things
[23:24] <@BradGM> If you left money, it's gone.
[23:25] <@Siluvaine> ((let money? pfft))
[23:25] <@Edgerrin> ((Ha Ulric is still asleep in our room :) ))
[23:25] * @Aithorn will check through his bag to see if anything else is gone
[23:26] <@BradGM> Nothing else is missing.
[23:27] * @Aithorn also goes to warn Edge and Sil to see if the same thing happened to them
[23:28] <@Edgerrin> "Yeah someone riffled thru me stuff. The only valuable I had 'ere was me broken hammer."
[23:28] * @Siluvaine nods. 'Maybe the fight was a distraction? Still, we're paying enough that this is annoying."
[23:29] <@BradGM> Indeed, your things were searched, but apart from any money you left behind, there is nothing missing.
[23:29] <@Edgerrin> "That it is. I thought this was a classy joint."
[23:30] <@BradGM> *End of Session***
[20:36] <@BradGM> The morning started a little off; First, Siluvaine did not return from her evening with Saer, then the owner informed you that Aithron left yesterday afternoon for a ‘personal matter’. Deciding to the Temple of Ulric rather than the couple of Witch Hunters whom they have letter of introduction/presentation for, the Party was suddenly joined by Siluvaine as they left the Imperial Inn.
[20:37] <@BradGM> . Nearing the Temple, the Party involved themselves in a small mugging-gone-wrong, helping the Wizard victim taking care of his attackers. After the dust settled, the Wizard introduced himself as Wolfgang Scheunacht, Master Wizard of the Bright (Fire) Order. They declined his offer of a bodyguard job, but informed them he can be reached at the Bright College or the Imperial Fortress if the Party changed their minds.
[20:37] <@BradGM> . At the Ulrican Temple, the Pary was struck by the presence of snow and the cold air; The large white timberwolf was just filling at this point. They met Gerhard Schiller, High Priest of Ulric in Altdorf and informed him of the current situation with the Red Flayer. Without much ado, Gerhard allowed the Party to search the Temple’s archives for clues, as himself seems more at home in the deep wood than in a smelling, dirty, over-populated Metropolis.
[20:39] <@BradGM> Gerhard "Please, follow me." *He takes a small hall and goes downstairs. "I'm afraid our archives are not as sustainable at the one in the Temple of Sigmar or the Palace, but there are documents dating from the time of Sigmar Himself!"
[20:39] <@Aithorn> ((old papers! good thing one of us can read)
[20:40] <@BradGM> ((two.5 of you; Ulrich and Sil, and soon Edge))
[20:41] <@Siluvaine> "That's good to hear. This may be our only chance to find the item."
[20:42] <@BradGM> He takes a candle and its pan, and enters the Archives. It is a mass of papers, parchemins, illuminated books, some paper are even locked behind a glass box..there is not alot of dust, but it is cold, quite cold, which may explain the well preserved nature of the documents.
[20:43] * @Siluvaine follows along, quarterstaff tapping on the floor occasionally. "Is there some sort of..order?"
[20:43] <@Edgerrin> "Feels like one of me halls down 'ere"
[20:44] <@Aithorn> ((it probably was dwarven originally))
[20:45] <@BradGM> ((yeah the Temple of Ulric is very old, just that it lost in power with the times))
[20:46] <@BradGM> Gerhard "I'm afraid we have been decades without permanents scribes. Most of our archives in the last 140 or 50 years were compiled in Middenheim."
[20:47] <@BradGM> And the Ulrican journal bit Prof. Zweistein found was dated 150 years ago.
[20:48] <@Siluvaine> "Compiled..in middenheim? As in the material is there?"
[20:51] <@BradGM> Gerhard "There is a daily journal, which is brought to Middenheim yearly and a report is complited there for our archives, while the journal is kept there, yes."
[20:52] <@Siluvaine> "Ah, well, hopefully we'll be able to find the information here..."
[20:52] * @Siluvaine looks at all the papers and sighs.
[20:53] <@Edgerrin> "If ye can point me in the right way I can help look. I ain't much use atreading yet."
[20:53] <@Edgerrin> "Gimme a picture of what we be looking fer."
[20:55] <@BradGM> Gerhard "If you are looking for a deamic artefact, I must warn you; you will find none here. They are usually stored elsewhere in Altdorf."
[20:55] * @Siluvaine describes the dagger as much as possible.
[20:55] <@Edgerrin> "So I just be looking for somthing with a dagger on it. Pretty obvious. Thought it might be hid more."
[20:56] <@Aithorn> ((in the famous words of Isaac Asimov "It pays to be obvious, especially if you have a reputation for subtlety.))
[20:57] <@Siluvaine> "well, unless you can suddenly read..."
[20:57] * @Siluvaine pulls out a scrap of paper and writes the phrase "Dagger of Yul K’chaum" for Edgerrin to pattern match.
[20:57] <@Edgerrin> "Not yet but I'm getter there."
[20:58] <@Edgerrin> "ah thanks missy. this helps a lot."
[20:58] * @Edgerrin starts looksing for something that matches
[20:59] <@BradGM> Roll search; Edge, you can't read, but Sil's note helps a little; roll it with a -10. You'll need a certain numbers of DoS to get it. Each roll equals 3 hours.
[21:00] <@BradGM> ((Sil can roll too)

[21:01] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 80 Failure by 2 degrees!
[21:01] <@Aithorn> ((that's how *I* roll))
[21:01] * @Siluvaine starts the search, shuddering at the thought of being stuck here all day.
[21:01] <@Edgerrin> ((thank you *I*nquisitor)
[21:03] <@BradGM> You spend some time looking around. Edgerrin seems to be digging books after books with the word 'Dagger' and 'of' lot
[21:03] <@BradGM> 3 hours passes.
[21:03] * @Edgerrin will stack the books up for Sil to look at.
[21:03] <@BradGM> It is about midday. You can roll again or do something else.
[21:03] <@Edgerrin> !dhroll 28
[21:03] <Diceling> Edgerrin: 6 Success by 2 degrees!
[21:03] <@BradGM> ((Jesus Christ))

[21:05] <@Siluvaine> !dhroll 60
[21:05] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 72 Failure by 1 degree!
[21:05] <@Siluvaine> ((Bah!))
[21:05] <@BradGM> Edgerrin, you feel like you're actually good for searching libraries and Archives, compared to the hapless Siluvaine. you you flips the pages of and small book, you suddenly see the exact wording "Dagger of Yul K'chaum"!
[21:06] <@Edgerrin> "Eureka. I think I gound sumtinhg."
[21:06] * @Edgerrin holds out the books for the others to see.
[21:06] <@BradGM> He holds a small book.
[21:07] * @Siluvaine takes the book to look it over.
[21:08] <@BradGM> It is a journal. You recognized the writing as the same from the bit of the journal in Middenheim.
[21:11] * @Siluvaine starts reading the section. "Well, it seems familiar."
[21:12] <@Edgerrin> "anything that be helpful?"
[21:12] <@BradGM> He writes that he manages to secure the Dagger and brought it to 'Illuminator Stauz' so it "can be forever out of bound from any and all forces in this Plane."
[21:14] * @Siluvaine glances around. "Does anyone know what an Illuminator is?"
[21:15] <@Siluvaine> "And what do they mena by out of bounds?"
[21:15] * @Edgerrin shakes his head no
[21:16] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, you can roll common know (elves) -30
[21:17] <@Siluvaine> !dhroll 20
[21:17] <Diceling> Siluvaine: 19 Success by 0 degrees!
[21:17] <@BradGM> You heard of that term; it is a rank of Wizard is a College of Magic.
[21:18] <@Siluvaine> "Well, I hope their records are better kept."
[21:18] <@Aithorn> ((can we re-name her siri?))
[21:20] <@BradGM> ((not after she can't look well in an archives compared to the illeterate Dwarf slayer with a hand written note he doens't understand))
[21:22] <@Siluvaine> "Illuminator is a Wzard rank. We might be able to talk to Dieter Klemperer for more information."
[21:22] <@Edgerrin> (( I be Edjumacat ed now))
[21:22] <@BradGM> ((Well, you did spend 6 hours almost reading))
[21:24] * @Siluvaine stretches and looks around. "I wonder how long we've been down here."
[21:25] <@Edgerrin> "I be just learning ta read don't make me tell time too."
[21:26] <@BradGM> WEll, it's beena while, so you might be feeling a little hungry/thirsty.
[21:26] <@Edgerrin> "Do we have the informations we be needin'?"
[21:27] * @Edgerrin looks at a few more books trying to make out the words
[21:27] <@BradGM> Roll intelligence Edgerrin
[21:27] <@Edgerrin> !dhroll 38
[21:27] <Diceling> Edgerrin: 75 Failure by 3 degrees!
[21:28] <@BradGM> It's still gibberish to you.
[21:28] <@Edgerrin> (another time :) )
[21:28] <@BradGM> Or maybe it's just classical?
[21:30] <@Edgerrin> ((thats on the lsit to learn too ))
[21:30] <@BradGM> ((man, an educated party, how fun!))
[21:30] * @Edgerrin looks at the elves. 1"We be needin' anything else?"
[21:31] * @Siluvaine considers all the books and scrolls in the room. "I don't know, but we have other options to look for I think."
[21:32] <@Edgerrin> "Where ta t hen?"
[21:33] <@Siluvaine> "Food or the colleges."
[21:35] * @Edgerrin looks at Aithorn. 1"How bout you elf friend?"
[21:37] <@BradGM> Oh, Aithron's not here, actually.
[21:37] * @Siluvaine shrugs. "Lunch I suppose."
[21:37] <@Edgerrin> (oh)
[21:37] <@Edgerrin> "Lunch it be"
[21:37] * @Siluvaine gets up and starts to look for Gerhard or any other priest.
[21:38] * @Edgerrin follow
[21:38] <@Edgerrin> will follow
[21:39] <@BradGM> You get back to the upper hall. High Priest Gerhard is discussing with an old Nobleman of good stature. At the back, near the hall leading to the entrance, you see Aithorn patting Gerhard's large white timberwolf.
[21:39] <@Edgerrin> "Ya gota new friend?"
[21:41] * @Siluvaine walks over to Aithorn. "Found anything?"
[21:43] <@Aithorn> "Only that he likes being scratched behind the ears. And that some other elves have been in the area recently which is unusual."
[21:43] <@Siluvaine> "Avoiding the fighting?"
[21:45] <@Aithorn> "A possibility, but that depends on if they were my cousins or yours. When we have a moment's peace I intend to find out, but right now our focus is needed here."
[21:46] <@BradGM> ((OOOOOOooohhhh)))
[21:46] <@BradGM> ((cat fight!))
[21:46] * @Siluvaine nods slowly. "We might have found a lead. But its pointing to anther person."
[21:49] <@Aithorn> "Hopefully that person is about to eat dinner. I have spent last night and part of the morning searching for the passing elves where I met Carcharoth and Her Schiller I was hoping he could tell me where you were in the city but you found me instead."
[21:50] <@Siluvaine> "Carcharoth?"
[21:51] <@Siluvaine> ((quick afk))
[21:52] * @Aithorn scratches him behind the ears again before standing up, "Yes, didn't you meet him as well? He's quite the story teller. But enough about the pleasant things in life, where does the clue go?"
[21:54] <@Siluvaine> "Back to the colleges of magic."
[21:54] <@Edgerrin> "He aint me type."
[21:56] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10
[21:56] <Diceling> BradGM: 1
[21:56] <@Aithorn> "Your loss. But at least the colleges are close by, we should see what we find before the day is over."
[21:57] * @Edgerrin nods
[21:59] * @Siluvaine glances over to see if Schiller look to want to talk to them before they leave.
[22:00] <@BradGM> Gerhard excuses himself to the old nobleman, seeing as you look at him. "Leaving for the moment? Have you done any progress?"
[22:01] <@Siluvaine> "We think so, enough to give us another place to look for now. If this doesn't pan out, I'm afraid we'll have to return here to search more."
[22:02] <@BradGM> Gerhard "Very Well. I am in Altdorf for the week, I must make way for Middenheim by then. Glory to Ulric!"
[22:03] <@BradGM> He make the paws symbol of Ulric and returns to the Nobleman."
[22:04] * @Siluvaine turns amd heads in the general direction of the Colleges.
[22:04] * @Edgerrin follows
[22:05] * @Aithorn returns the gesture and then follows along with Sil and Edge
[22:06] <@Aithorn> Once they get out onto the street and into the stink, Aithorn mutters "I didn't miss this part."
[22:07] * @Siluvaine gets her herb scented handkerchief out and holds it up to her nose as she moves on. "You missed a fight earlier."
[22:08] <@BradGM> Well, it still smells as this morning; farm animals, like it's an open barn.
[22:08] <@BradGM> Indeed, there's a dead body where a couple of beggars are fighting open the pantaloons.
[22:08] <@BradGM> open=over
[22:09] <@BradGM> Let's keep it clean it's still daylight.
[22:09] <@Aithorn> (("fighting to open the pantaloons", yeah, let's keep it clean ;) ))
[22:09] <@BradGM> mid afternoon by the way!
[22:10] <@BradGM> ((yeah, I had a French thought for the pantaloons part, and got pour and over mizxed))
[22:11] <@Aithorn> "A fight? Did you go finding trouble without me? Is everybody alright?"
[22:11] * @Siluvaine moves on, heading towards the colleges of magic. She glances around, looking for signs of anyone following them or paying too close of attention. "Some ruffians setting on a wizard in the street."
[22:11] <@BradGM> You return to the Celestial College. Siluvaine it is as I described to you. Again, as you goes to knock a guard opens up and look you over "Yes, you're here to see...?"
[22:11] <@BradGM> Wait
[22:12] <@BradGM> no wsorry, go on.
[22:13] <@Siluvaine> "We're here to see Dieter Klemperer. Please tell him Siluvaine from the other day is here to talk to him again."
[22:14] <@BradGM> guard "Yes, do come in and wait in the lobby, while he's being checked up."
[22:15] <@BradGM> You are let in again, security seems quite lacking as before. After a few minutes, the Guard returns again "He's here, you can go see him. You remember the way?"
[22:17] * @Siluvaine glances around and tries to recall. "Down the hall, third on the right, up the left stairs for three floors and then the..second door on the left?"
[22:18] <@BradGM> Guard "That's right. Have a good afternoon y'lot."
[22:19] <@Aithorn> ((Then we get lost, and light a campfire in the hallway and sing kumbayah until someone finds us and gives us furhter directions
[22:19] <@Aithorn> ))
[22:19] <@Siluvaine> "You as well."
[22:20] * @Siluvaine heads down the hallway and follows the directions. "I wonder if its possible for the building to change.."
[22:20] * @Siluvaine continues to muse as she heads for Dieter's office.
[22:21] <@Aithorn> "It wouldn't be the first place to be not what we see."
[22:23] <@BradGM> You are not under escort or see anyone else as you reach the occult mile long door-filled corridor. You move in front of Dieter's door and you hear a "Come in." from within.
[22:24] * @Siluvaine lowers her hand before she knocks and enters.
[22:27] <@BradGM> His office is as you left it; Dieter is looking into his telescope out of a small window..that seems to be giving into a clear Nightsky. He doesn't bother to turn from his observation as you enter. "Welcome again. I expect news and demands."
[22:30] <@Siluvaine> "We were able to find a note in the Ulrican Temple that they were able to retrieve the dagger, but gave it to Illuminator Stauz to hide it where it would never be able to be found by forces on this plane."
[22:35] <@BradGM> Dieter "I have never heard of an Illuminator Stauz, but that would mean a Master Wizard of the Light College, and he have placed it in their Vault, to seal it from this reality.*
[22:36] <@Siluvaine> "Does..that mean we can just..forget about this, if its that safe?"
[22:37] * @Edgerrin smirks 1"Not bloody likely"
[22:38] <@Edgerrin> "Tis wishful thinkin' lass."
[22:39] <@BradGM> Dieter "If it was dormant when sealed and it was awaken during the events in Middenheim. It is still existing, hence dangerous."
[22:40] <@Aithorn> "If they put it somewhere then someone else can bring it back, some places are just harder to reach I guess."
[22:41] <@BradGM> ((No, just forget about it, it'll be ok!))
[22:41] <@BradGM> ((No need to go to adventure, just take a throwing knive to the knee and open up an tavern.))
[22:42] <@Siluvaine> "Well then. We have to confirm that its still there I suppose. Do you know anyone in the Light College that might be helpful?"
[22:42] <@Aithorn> ((Brad, that's what happens to all the frisbees in my car. Daemon possessed artefacts? We should be so lucky...))
[22:42] <@BradGM> ((Also,reading about champlain, in one of his last adventure, he took an arrow to the knee))
[22:42] <@BradGM> ((hahaha))
[22:45] <@Aithorn> "And if we may impose a bit more, directions to the Light College would be greatly appreciated as well."
[22:46] <@BradGM> Dieter "Naturally. I know of a member of the Bocage club who is an Illuminator. Illuminator Messner, good chess player."
[22:48] <@BradGM> Dieter "And now you'd appreciate an arrangement for a meeting."
[22:49] <@Siluvaine> "If you could. That seems to be the next step in our search."
[22:49] * Retrieving #shadowrun modes...
[22:50] <@BradGM> Dieter "I'll send him a message via the club for a meeting tonight. Would sundown would be acceptable?"
[22:52] <@Aithorn> "Very. Thank you kindly."
[22:52] <@BradGM> Dieter "Where are you lodged again?"
[22:55] <@Aithorn> "We have taken rooms at the Smoking Table at the moment."
[22:55] * @Siluvaine nods. "That would be fine, thank you."
[22:56] <@BradGM> ((IMperial Inn))
[22:56] <@Aithorn> ((what he said))
[22:57] <@BradGM> Dieter "I shall send a messsage to you there."
[22:58] <@Siluvaine> "Thank you very much."
[23:00] * @Siluvaine waits to see if Dieter has anything else, before heading off.
[23:01] <@BradGM> You leave as Deiter doesn't even turn around to look at you leave or bid you goodbye.
[23:03] * @Siluvaine follows the path back, nodding to the guard before heading outside, though she takes a deep breath before going out to the Altdorf air.
[23:04] <@BradGM> !roll 1d10
[23:04] <Diceling> BradGM: 3
[23:05] <@BradGM> The sun moved in the sky, and the wind brings the smell of sour milk in your nostrils.
[23:05] <@Edgerrin> 'This city almosts smells worse than a den of goblins."
[23:05] * @Siluvaine grimaces and starts back towards the the Inn.
[23:07] * DjGirls (hasan@195.142.zj.oz) has joined #shadowrun
[23:07] * DjGirls (hasan@195.142.zj.oz) Quit (User has been banned from DarkMyst)
[23:07] <@Aithorn> "At least the den of goblins won't keep you around for long time."
[23:09] <@Siluvaine> "Hmm?"
[23:11] <@BradGM> Back at the Inn, it seems to be almost empty, a third of the place is occupied. There seems to be having a few logs rather than chairs here and there.
[23:11] <@Aithorn> "Clearly someone has been sending more letters."
[23:12] <@BradGM> It's about 4 :30 PM
[23:14] * @Aithorn heads straight for a table and some food
[23:14] <@Siluvaine> "Maybe there was a chair tax and they decided to avoid some of it."
[23:16] <@BradGM> The servant brigns food and drink; he's got a piece of bloody cloth in one of his nostril.
[23:16] <@Aithorn> "Doesn't look like they took that one sitting down."
[23:17] <@Edgerrin> "what happened 'ere mate?"
[23:18] <@BradGM> Servant "Couple of ididots started a fight over sumthin' or another...had to kick'em out..took a few of us."
[23:18] * @Edgerrin nods
[23:19] * @Siluvaine takes a seat.
[23:19] * @Edgerrin sits also
[23:20] * @Aithorn nods appreciatively at the food and gets ready to go to work
[23:20] <@Siluvaine> "Well, nothing to do until we hear from Illuminator Messner."
[23:22] <@BradGM> You still got 4-5 hours until the meeting, doigng anything in perticular?
[23:22] <@BradGM> ((We might ahve that meet next session, but for now?))
[23:23] <@Aithorn> ((some careful grooming and clothes cleaning))
[23:23] <@Edgerrin> ((resting and eating))
[23:23] <@Siluvaine> ((oh. Slightly longer than expected Hmm))
[23:24] <@BradGM> Those who return to thier rooms to clean or whatever notice that seomone searched throught your things
[23:24] <@BradGM> If you left money, it's gone.
[23:25] <@Siluvaine> ((let money? pfft))
[23:25] <@Edgerrin> ((Ha Ulric is still asleep in our room :) ))
[23:25] * @Aithorn will check through his bag to see if anything else is gone
[23:26] <@BradGM> Nothing else is missing.
[23:27] * @Aithorn also goes to warn Edge and Sil to see if the same thing happened to them
[23:28] <@Edgerrin> "Yeah someone riffled thru me stuff. The only valuable I had 'ere was me broken hammer."
[23:28] * @Siluvaine nods. 'Maybe the fight was a distraction? Still, we're paying enough that this is annoying."
[23:29] <@BradGM> Indeed, your things were searched, but apart from any money you left behind, there is nothing missing.
[23:29] <@Edgerrin> "That it is. I thought this was a classy joint."
[23:30] <@BradGM> *End of Session***
