Fists of the Long Death

[The Thayan Menace]

Flamerule 23 (Late Afternoon)

You spend a couple of hours conversing with some questionable individuals near the Cathedral of Shadows, discretely inquiring about how one might acquire stealth-enhancing potions.

Out of all your contacts, only an old toothless Rashemi vagrant seems to offer any useful advice.

"Well ... Trade Town used to have a really good black market, but that place was emptied during the Night of the Red Knives. Hell, I suppose you could always just go to the Maskarrans and ask them for some potions."

[Make a DC 12 Sense Motive check.]

[Make a DC 10 Intelligence check.]

 

[Ra'Faz]

[Sense Motive= 2]
[Intelligence check= 20]

You sense that this man is genuinely trying to help you, however it suddenly dawns upon you that he might not be able to.

After all, most locals know that the Church of Mask and the thieves' guild of Bezantur are one and the same.

No reputable thieves' guild would ever sell its stealth magic to non-members. Why would they give non-licensed rogues a competitive advantage?

Perhaps you would be better served trying a different approach and/or looking in a different part of town.

 

[Ra'Faz]

I will head down to the dock area and look around. I'm not really sure what to look. I will find a porch to sit on and look at the work being done by the people of Thay.

I'm looking for a shady fellow. Some one that would eat your children and ask for seconds. I'm looking for a low life. I will ask about where one might accquire illegal goods.

I'm willing to fork some coin over for some good information.

{I will do this untill 7 bells}

[Before you head off to the docks, I will let you make a DC 10 Knowledge (Thay) check to see if you would know about taking another approach to your illegal activity.]

Hmmm ... there has to be another method to acquire these potions; a simpler way ....

 

[Ra'Faz]

[Knowledge Thay check= 14]

...Humm I know there is a better way to get these.

Checks the sky to see how late it is.

Many noble houses of Bezantur are active in all sorts of business activities, including nefarious ones.

[Do you know any nobles?]

Plus, the Red Wizards have a lot of creative leeway when it comes to interpretations of the law.

[Do you know any red wizards?]

[Better yet, do you know any noble families with red wizards?]

Think, Ra'Faz ... think ....

[After thinking about it some more, I have been a bit of a nitpicker about all this .... No matter; I'll take care of it ....]

While you are looking up at the sky, you hear a pleasant voice speak to you in flawless Rashemi.

"Is there anything I can help with you, son? Any merchandise perhaps?"

A swarthy non-descript man in a dark cloak stands before you; twin short swords hang from his belt.

[Despite my generosity, understand this: the items that you desire are essentially illegal and ethical merchants will not sell them to you.]

 

[Ra'Faz]

The only noble family that I know is Kesia's family. But I not dear go and ask them. I would have to explane too much and I might not make it back haha.

[I really need to see Kesia's family and let them know what happend. Its eating at me. Its the right thing to do. I know I didnt get her killled, she did that all herself.]

[But I think they might blame Ra'Faz. Plus his mother still works for the family and I dont want to get her in trouble. So it is best to avoid them. I just know I will run into them again. It is always worse to get caught. It seems like I'm hiding and running.]

[I'm not sure but could I use Zax's Family or {{Mikes or toon}} Family?]

[Thats all I know]

 

[Ra'Faz]

[Who said I was looking for an ethical merchant <wink>.]

I was staring at the sky thinking how I should deal with Kesia's family.....

"..Humm why yes there is something I do need. Can you help me?"

I pull out a piece of parchement with three items written in Rashmi....Invisiblity, elixir of hiding and sneaking.

"This is what I'm seeking." <Hands the note to the man>
