ooc: Any arrangement regarding meeting place or time?
[sblock=Jerrel and Julian]Heading to some of his regular haunts first, Julian and Jerrel find little information either Vark or Vanthus. Both the Empty Grave and the Bloodthristy Pelican garner little. Taking Alix's advise the two head over to Shadowshore via one of the small ferrymen who move passengers around the bay.
Spending some time amongst some of the roughest, shadiest corners of Sassarine the two find out a little bit of information on both subjects. At the Skinned Man they discover that Soller Vark is a smuggler, his crew smuggles dangerous and exotic animals into Sassarine for sale in Shadowshore's black markets. You even find a lead on an exotic flying monkey that his crew brought in which was sold to one of the more well to do merchants of the Merchant's district, Orimander.
Of Vanthus, the two find an interesting lead at the Plucked Parrot. According to one man who'se nose lookes like it has been broken at least three times, Vanthus has been seen in the area. He was often seen in the company of a known smuggler named Penkus.[/sblock]
[sblock=Rystil Arden]Rowyn Kellani prooves to be a difficult person to track down any information on. She was not a student at the academy, like many of Alix's connections amongst the nobility. That and the fact that she is a good 6 years older than he, or more, removes him from many of the circles she may have frequented. What little information he does dig up is that she can normally be contacted through her family and that her favorite colour is red. How long it takes to see her or where she is prooves too difficult for him to dig up.[/sblock]
[sblock=Nathan]Nathan checks the areas that Julian and Jerrel plan to pass. Cudgel, Champion's District, Noble District, and Sunrise all turn up empty. In the Merchant's District, people remember seeing Vanthus here and there, although no one's seen him recently. Everyone assumes his is still living at the Vanderboren manor.[/sblock]
[sblock=Tereg]Tereg finds it easy to grab a hiding spot near the Blue Nixie. After only 15 minutes he determines that there are probably about six or seven thugs, though he has not seen someone matching the description of Vark that Lavinia provided. Most are just lounging around the ship in the early dusk. Four of them head below with mugs in their hands.
EDIT: While it is possible to see the number of thugs from where he is, Tereg finds it odd that the Nixie is not docked at Pier 5 as Lavinia said. Indeed it is anchored in the bay a good 100ft from the docks. The ship sits at rest with its sails bundled and its anchor lowered.
ooc: yup no worries on the fun RP
