[QUOTE="Viking Bastard, post: 255106, member: 509"] . When one needs to find someone native to Gromnburg, one always talks to Leeta Townsbuckle who knows every Gromnburgian in town. Leeta is a big woman. Not only physically, but in thought and attitude. When the Gromnburgians started flooding into Serpent City all needing jobs that just weren’t there she started her own business. ‘Leeta and Co.’ makes everything from clothes to cheap furniture and even weapons. Everything she manufactures is made by hand by Gromnburgians. She even runs a very successful ‘escort’ service. Some would say she ‘uses’ the poor saps but she would say herself that she ‘exploits’ them. She says it sounds more classy. [b]Picture of Leeta Townsbuckle[/b] [img]http://dungeon3e.thedamned.ca/cops_n_robbers/potraits/leeta.gif[/img] The capes find Leeta paying salaries to her workers in front of one of her businesses down in the lower wards. After some interrogation Leeta admits to know who the killer is but ain’t prepared to give the identity away just like that. Although the “witch-hunter” is a fruitcake he never harmed her or any of her people. Just some lowlifes that deserved to die anyway. She is on the other hand ready to give the information in exchange for something else. When the PCs offer her money, she shakes her head. “Ya have a problem, we have a problem.” she explain and tells them of some dweeb that has been preying on some of her girls. “Weird guy, unnatural.” She says, “I sent some of the guys to whack him, but he easily kicked the crap out of them. Tore one’s head clear off. Yer all are trained to deal with this kinda crap ain’t ya? If ye want to know where to find the witch hunter, ye find this sod first! He keeps out in the ole’ church over in the Gromnburg district.” Intrigued, the capes head out to the Gromnburg district. . When the immigrants from Gromnburg first arrived they took over an practically abandoned part of town formerly known as the Burnt District (originally it was known as the Harrgard district as the Gnomes of Harrgard ran a gunpowder factory there, but after a rather nasty accident involving one of the factory workers, a hot cup of coffee and a torch, the factory blew up and took the whole district with it. After that it became the home of all the homeless people that even the scum of the other Lower Wards didn’t want). The Gromnburgians started by burning all the bums, beggars and other homeless people and then they tore the whole district down and rebuilt it. Now, Little Gromnburg is probably the cleanest place of the lower wards. It’s also the only part of the city that’s built out of wood in any real volume, the Gromnburgians believe that the black stone that the rest of the city is built from is the sign of the corruption of the devil. The old church is the only building that the Little Gromnburg locals didn’t tear down, seeing that even if it was built by the corrupt foreigners it was still the house of God. They don’t use it though, and built their own church a couple of blocks away. [/QUOTE]
