Darksun Killer In Ravenloft PT I

[dead_radish]

Tallask nods to the dwarf. "A wise woman told us to seek you out, that you would help us. We're looking for anything on him - why he died, who killed him, who saw it, where he died, whatever."

He then lapses back into silence.

"The body..? oh yes..here", Krook digs into his pocket. His eyes look to the heavens with his tongue sticking out the corner of his mouth. After rummaging for a moment he switchs to the other pocket and pulls out a nasty looking bundle, "Got it!"

"This is the proof I was looking for that the kid was a noble"

He unwraps the cloth exposes a decayed hand with a large ring on it. He spits onto it and trys to clean it but finds all of his clothes are much nastier than the surface of the ring he is trying to clean. A city- slave offers a rag which Krook gleefully takes.

"House Attar...guess this is the missing boy. Strange, he was expecting a gold mine but thus far seven parts of him have appeared here in my sewers." Krook looks perplexed.

Krook looks around then hands the ring to a servant. "You know what to do with it." The servant looks nervously at the two of you then runs off.

Krook looks long and hard at you now. "I hope you find out whom did this. I haven't told others but I have found pieces of humans for the past week now. Usually only gnawed remains...nothing identifiable like this. Whoever or whatever is doing this needs to be stopped. It may interfer with the sewer ecosystem and I can't allow that. What specifically can I help you with?" Krook now appears like a very dirty dwarf on a mission rather than the idiot he has been appearing like.

 

[Ashrem Bayle]

"We appreciate your help. We may have need to call on you as a guide should we have to enter the sewers to further investigate." With that, he nodded slightly. "We must be going, but we shall return soon."

With another slight nod that took in everyone, he turned and continued on. As he walked, he looked to Tallask. "What do you think? Some kind of creature hiding in the sewers?"

 

[dead_radish]

Tallask shrugs. "It could well be - there's things in the wilds that could easily do this. But to try to hide the pieces in the sewers, if that is what is happening...." He turns to call back to Krook as they are leaving. "Friend dwarf - two questions. Have you found any wounds that seem to be made by weapons? And did you find any bodies in the sewers, or have the parts been purposefully thrown there?"

 

[Jarval]

Odten goes up to one of the huddled humans and speaks up.

"You Haas?"

The Dwarf thinks long and hard. I know not if these were killed by claw or weapon. I know the non-stricted areas of the sewers and nothing could do that that lives within it. Some injuries are claw and bite marks for sure. Others....I'm not as sure. I am convinced the bodies were placed here to hide them however. The parts are too scattered to suggest a creature....some parts were hidden in cracks and the such. Fah!


"You Haas?" Odten asks.
"Ahhhhh!" yells a started man. His eyes are crazed and he is pale. "The dragon's ghost has come for me!" He trys to claw and crawl further into the pile but can not get a hand hold.


"pi$$ off Vander! At least MY son is willing to learn his father's way. He dosen't want want to dress up as a templar wanna-be" The templar grows tense and flush. "I am a templar you fool! If you were not of higher standing I would have you put into the mines with your son!"
"Is that a fact? your boy made the templerate? Bah- good for him. He is doing better than his father by far."

"Please...please gentlemen...calm yourselves. Both Jayde and Dukotti feel a warm feeling of compliance wash over them. Dukotti takes a seat no longer the tense warrior he normally is. Jayde (Psi Craft) recognizes the use of psionics to control emotions. You suspect it originates from the fake eyes in the head piece.

Suddenly the bartender and several others look busy. In walks a large man, an obvious warrior, in the garb of a senior templar. He looks about sternly at everyone. He then moves to the bar. Sweetened water is prepared for him immediately by the bar tender. He takes a sip then gulps it in one single swallow. Straightening his head upright he slowly turns to Jutter.

"Word has it Quarlla never went to the mines....he was doing something else. What do you have to say of that Nobleman Jutter Attar?"
"Remember- I am the High Templar of Justice within this city. I AM the law."

Jayde recalls his name to be Tenk. He has the power to back up his threats to the nobleman.

 

[Jeremy]

Drinchek looks at Odten then wonders what his take of him would be. Thinking better of it, he turns the other way so as not to give the addled man more visions.

 

[Velenne]

Dukotti sits down, a somewhat curious look upon his face. He blinks and looks directly at each of the people talking in turn. His warrior instincts sort them from greatest to weakest threat but for some reason it doesn't really matter to him. He'll watch the exchange and wait for Jayde to do something important.

 

[Jarval]

Clicking his tongue in annoyance, Odten attempts to calm the human.

"You still live, so I doubt I am the Dragon's ghost. We're here to help you, and who knows, maybe you'll get some coin as well."

The man stares beyond you, not at you. You....You are not templars...do you work for them? Do you work for Tenk? If you work for the High-Templar of Justice then I saw nothing. tears flow freely down his cheeks from both eyes.

This man is obviously suffering from a complete emotional breakdown and require patience and coaxing of information.



Jutter Attar looks suddenly pale...my son is lost to me..this I can answer honestly. What more would you have of me master of justice and the arena?

Does everyone else leave Krook now to his duties?
