Hey all,
I'm developing a small mystery in my game - the party knows that one person in the nearby town is a sorcerer with an elemental [Cold] bloodline and that they are being hunted by the villain.
They do not know who it is, hence the mystery. Knowing my players, they are probably going to start asking around town, looking for anyone 'frosty' and I would like to give them a couple dead ends or false leads.
So far I have two:
1. A gnome with blue hair, answers to the name "Icy". He is really a smuggler/fence whose speciality is diamonds.
2. A grizzled explorer/survivalist whose 2nd home is the high altitude mountains. Despite claims of his extraordinary abilities, he really is just an expert in mountaineering.
I was hoping to come up with at least one more and was wondering what other people's ideas are on the subject. What other types of people in a large town/small city would the party hear about while turning the rumour mill?
If it helps, the actual sorcerer is the barmaid of the local, big tavern. The place does boast the coldest drinks in town but the bartender covers for her by claiming to use a custom-made, extra large, icebox that he can keep filled all year.
Any ideas come to mind?
