[QUOTE="StreamOfTheSky, post: 6311581, member: 35909"] The other thing is, I would put the conversation...at least the speeches by each NPC...in an info token as I post it and leave it there for posterity. I don't mind posting it on here, but sadly we didn't quite reach the next morning last session, so I don't know if I want to post it *before* the session anyway... If you go around town you might meet some NPCs who'll be at "tomorrow's" meeting; or you could potentially do something that would then get brought up by someone in the meeting, so I'm very uncomfortable posting it "out of sequence." I will be updating an info token with the speeches by the NPCs as it goes along if it's easier for you to read that than in the chat. I actually have been updating info tokens around Seaquen as you go to the areas, not sure if anyone's been checking them. Anyway, rather than make another post.... Recap of last session: [sblock]Sophia went off on her own to investigate Paradim Dogwood's shop and what she discovered seemed to scare her. Something related to the abducting of young women around the town. She cavalierly brought four drugged out barely able to walk girls back to your ship in plain view of various townsfolk without offering any sort of explanation, and some saw through her disguise (making it look even sketchier....catsuit didn't help, either). She urged the party to rush back to investigate Majestic Creations for evidence...w/o any idea what "evidence" there was left to find, but a crowd of angry townsfolk lead by the ever-irritating Pickens Frankart swarmed around you. Lyceum guards broke it up, escorted you back to your ship, took the girls back to deliver to their families, and ordered you not to raise anchor for the foreseeable future and not to go back to the shore and stir up trouble again tonight. After some debate about going back anyway, you rested and headed to Lyceum. On the way, you met Tiljann again, who said you should check out the Wayfarer's theater in the (north) Harbor District.
