Message: <blockquote data-quote="lykkenthrope" data-source="post: 9350952" data-attributes="member: 7045440">Session 2: Cruelpigs party do not read upon pain of ToadThe group approached the depository tower and hesitantly entered. They ran into “Rivereye” and he thought that Sorian was Peppin. This didn’t immediately cause concern more than it caused the Barbarian to be annoyed. “Rivereye” led “Peppin” to a random locker for them to speak the password. This is when Torrent confirmed there was no password. Vic, the group Wizard, checked and saw the lockers did indeed have a type of arcane lock on them.“Rivereye” seeing the writing on the wall went to flee but was grabbed by Sorian and lifted into the air and transformed back in Larion. Without further inspection our Sorcerer (from a safe distance himself) cast “knock” to open the locker. Vic thankfully had a scroll for Counterspell and stopped the trap from engaging. Larion used this distraction to attempt to escape. He called for Help and the Lantern came downstairs.Larion was cornered by a friendly Grom, an unfriendly Sorian, and scary shadow Ze. Reshi attacked Larion as he was grappled so the Lantern engaged. (going off script) The Lantern made psychic contact with Grom, the only non-hostile party member and convinced Grom to make the party let larion go and promised to lead them to Shaelis.[SPOILER="PCs really dont read"]Grom is my unknowing Trillith Host, so I saw the opportunity to have this be a way for his Trillith to start communicating wtih him.  The Lantern will leave when they finish with Shaelis, but thinking of still having a voice speak to Grom and if he thinks its the Lantern then...yay?[/SPOILER]They found Rivereye who told them he overheard those who attacked him saying they needed to keep the case safe for Shaelis. Larion was allowed to flee. Rivereye then returned to his post and the group went to Gabal’s School. They took a small rest on a quiet street before approaching the school right after dawn to an angry crowd.The crowd saw Vic’s magical arm and pegged her as a mage. As the crowd was growing more tense, Diogenes exited the school gates to help pacify the mob. Welcoming the group in, the group was concerned that Gabal was not there and began demanding to see his office. Diogenes, not knowing anyone in the group, became defensive. When asked where they could find Shealis, Diogenes expressed his dislike for the Mage, but before he could explain why he didn’t like her Sorian picked up Diogenes and Raged.Ze, who split off when the situation began to escalate, had been inside the dorms investigating, but not having found much except for a scared student.The Lantern quickly spoke to Grom and said that Shaelis was in the dormitory, so they group went there. Leaving Diogenes shaking his fist at them.Being led to Shaelis door, Sorian and Grom knocked and told her they were here about this case.Shaelis opened the door and was already casting a spell at them. And that’s where the session ended.</blockquote>
