[QUOTE="Ry, post: 3680784, member: 8314"] Problem: Zaivan Mandras typically eats at O Lucky Man, the nobles restaurant in Bidmarket. This is also where Javeed and his new girl, Olarah, dine as well. Zaivan will try to intervene if an assassin goes after Javeed. Threat: Zaivan is dating Olarah's "sister" - but neither Olarah nor her sister Jeniba are what they appear. Both are [url=http://esix.pbwiki.com/Cannibal+Doppleganger]cannibal dopplegangers[/url] seeking information for their [url=http://esix.pbwiki.com/Aboleth]aboleth masters[/url]. Zaivan and Javeed are in no immediate danger, since Olarah and Jeniba are trying to establish strong cover identities, but their associates and friends are. PCs are in special danger from Olarah, who will frequently look bored or desperate to leave whenever Javeed is not looking, and will jump at the chance to be "swept off" with a male PC - with the PC thinking it was all their idea (note to DMs: This kind of thing actually works). If Olarah is discovered, as soon as Jeniba learns of it she immediately tries to get Zaivan to a secluded spot to eat him (process takes one hour), then flees in his new identity. Resource: Zaivan is always happy to set up free travel for his friends; after all, one or another of his brother's many ships is usually in the harbour. Of course, if the PCs take him up on that, on this occasion he might have already set up travel for his friend Javeed (and forgot to mention this to the PCs), which could make the trip rather unpleasant. Reward: If the PCs save Zaivan from death (which can come from various sources), Guthran Mandras sends them a merchant's writ for 2000 gold, and offers them work. In the letter, Guthran asks that they be discreet about their affiliation with him, and that they continue to appear as more of Zaivan's ne'er-do-well friends. Guthran is deeply concerned about infiltrators into his organization, and although he is a cutthroat merchant baron, he is also a very intelligent man and a relentless foe of dopplegangers of any stripe.
