[QUOTE="Cypherblade, post: 9779743, member: 7048389"] A short session today [spoiler] [HEADING=2]Two new newspapers appear this summer:[/HEADING] [LIST] [*][B]The Flint Observer[/B] (Summer 85–91) [*][B]The Alarm Bell[/B] (Summer 89) [/LIST] [HEADING=2]Summary – [/HEADING] [LIST] [*]The Kaybeau Arms Expo is coming soon. [*]Repair works on Cauldron Hill face new delays. [*]Fey protests against antisocial violations of old traditions. [*]“Wicked Gates” toll checkpoints on the subrail. [*]Anti-corruption call addressed to Governor Stanfield. [*]Artifact exhibition led by Professor Hans Weber. [/LIST] [HEADING=2]Summary – [/HEADING] [LIST] [*]Strongly critical of the Kaybeau Arms Expo. [*]Mischief in Cloudwood and Bole linked to protests against antisocial measures? [*]Too much iron in the new railway network causing strange phenomena? [*]Foreign delicacies conquer Risur. [/LIST] [HEADING=2]1st of Autumn[/HEADING] We report to [B]Sgt. Sarah Lockheart[/B] (Local Police) at the Kaybeau Expo in Central Park. About twenty exhibition stands are present: [LIST] [*]Risuri Army, with miniature battle displays. [*]Steel plating, 5 inches thick, demonstrated with a cannon at 5 meters. [*]Ministry of Railways shows a diorama and model of current and planned railway lines. [*]A steel tower is being constructed during the expo. [*]Cailenfuel. [*]Canned vegetables. [*]A small tent with a mechanical music organ. [*][I]Pemberton Industries[/I]: The [I]B.E.A.R.[/I] (Battle Enhanced Animalistic Replicant) project will be unveiled tonight at 9 PM. [*][B]Nevard Sechim[/B] is there, selling a sour alchemical drink. [*][B]Cippiano[/B] also makes an appearance. [*]A stage is being set up — Staf spots [B]Rock Rackus[/B] among the crowd. [*]Gnomes run a booth with a [I]Badgergun[/I]. [*]A half-giant demonstrates a seven-shot firearm. [*]Steam-powered armor, crafted by halflings — they also have a flamethrower. Staf tries to trip the power armor, but fails. [/LIST] Ayleen tries to negotiate a bulk discount on +1 magical ammunition but fails the challenge of hitting the bullseye. She ends up buying 10 bullets for personal use. Kane investigates the [B]Temple of Uriel[/B], but finds it half-destroyed and devoid of any lingering divine Light. He also checks on the [B]Kell Guild[/B], which seems to have lost influence compared to [I]La Famiglia[/I]. [HEADING=2]Evening – The BEAR Demonstration[/HEADING] We gain entry using the invitations provided by Pemberton and enjoy the refreshments. Pemberton gives a speech and presents the [B]B.E.A.R.[/B], a large mechanical construct piloted by a gnome named [B]Dolf[/B], wearing a futuristic helmet. Ayleen casts [I]Detect Magic[/I] and senses powerful enchantments — particularly in the gnome’s helmet and in the BEAR’s core. A volunteer is requested for a mock duel with the BEAR. Under some peer pressure, [B]Staf[/B] is pushed forward. He steps up to the challenge and opens with a few solid, swift strikes and grappling attempts, but can’t gain a proper hold. The BEAR retaliates — biting, then delivering four crushing blows straight to Staf’s face, knocking him out cold. Staf is revived briefly on a stool and receives loud applause for his bravery. [B]Pemberton himself[/B] approaches and discreetly slips him a gemstone in thanks. [/spoiler] [/QUOTE]
