[QUOTE="mikeawmids1, post: 9250738, member: 7030604"] [U]The Enemy Within (Warlock!) Session 4, 25/01/2024[/U] The PCs return to the Merchant Guildhall. While they plot the best way to reach Magirius, Adeline spots Crusher Braugen lead a group of burly looking dudes out of the building. The goon squad splits up into smaller groups and head off in different directions. Adeline and Kalvin shadow one group to Magirius' house. Stammig confronts Crusher Braugen. The former prizefighter is looking for Kalvin, and suspects Stammig knows where the fugitive jongleur is hiding. Fritz sees his friend being manhandled into an alley and runs to alert the Watch. Unfortunately, he is waving around a loaded blunderbuss and the guards arrest him for possession of a martial weapon. Stammig manages to escape from Braugen and his men, grabbing a sheaf of parchment from the prizefighter's belt before disappearing into the backstreets. The parchment depicts crude charcoal sketches of both Kalvin and Gustaf. The PCs bail Fritz out of gaol, and try to warn Captain Goertrin that something dodgy is going down at the Merchant's Guildhall. The Captain insists that the party leave the investigation to the professionals and sends them on their way. The PCs disregard Goertrin's recommendation and return to the Guildhall. Kalvin purchases make-up and a false nose to disguise his identity, then he and Stammig go inside. They request a meeting with Magirius, which is declined. Instead, they ask to see a random merchant with an office on the same floor as their quarry. They schmooze their way through the meeting, then hide in a broom cupboard and wait for everyone to go home. When it becomes apparent Kalvin isn't coming back, Adeline and Fritz attend the rendezvous with the suspected cultists without him. The two men spook when they learn Magister Lieberung has bailed, but Adeline and Fritz are able to grab one man and drag him back to the inn for interrogation. Meanwhile, Kalvin and Stammig emerge from their hidey-hole and break into Magirius' office. The noise of splintering wood attracts the night watchman. While Stammig fights the guard, Kalvin hoovers up some much needed clues; a handwritten note stating the members of the Ordo Septinarius will gather tonight at the home of Councilman Johannes Teugen, and a diary detailing Magirius' initiation into the cult. Stammig is incapacitated and taken into Watch custody! Kalvin flees into the night. The remaining PCs question the captured cultist. He is not talking. "Hail Zentis!" he shrieks, before biting through - and swallowing his own tongue! Fritz is in the process of throwing the body out the window when the Watch arrive to round up the rest of Stammig's known accomplices. There's an akward moment as the two groups just stare at one another in stunned silence - and then all hell breaks loose. TBC [I]Next session scheduled for 01/02/2024[/I] [/QUOTE]
