you guys post question OOC and kennon will tell me/us what Archon knows.
(1) How close was Dara to her family at the time when Archonus knew her?

(2) Did Archonus ever visit her family's home?

(3) If yes to (2) - While he was there, did he notice anything out of place? How's the security?

(4) Did Dara have any distinctive features or marks?

(5) Did Dara, or anyone in her family, carry a distinctive piece of jewelry? (locket, ring, bracelet, anything)

(6) Did she journal?

(7) Who are her parents? (what is their relationship with the king now? are they still living?)

(8) Who is she working for now - some of us still don't even know the basics.

There are a few. But, I'm sure I'll think of more.
 

Here's what Archon knows - it's up to Archon whether he shares it, IC.

Fairly close. Her older brother stood to inherit the duchy her family controls, and probably also become Head of House Goldenblade. There were no nearby nobles with male heirs her age, so she decided to join the talons. Her family was supportive, but not over-eager. About as you'd expect from a youunger daughter of a Great House.

(2) Did Archonus ever visit her family's home?
It's possible, but it wouldn't have happened while they were together. When in training for the talons, there are no vacations. You spend years in their care, learning their lessons, seeing family and friends only when they come to you, and sometimes not even then.

However, he might have met her or her family before he joined, since his father was also a noble.

(4) Did Dara have any distinctive features or marks?
She was very pretty.

(5) Did Dara, or anyone in her family, carry a distinctive piece of jewelry? (locket, ring, bracelet, anything)
If she did, she wasn't allowed to wear it while training. Archon wouldn't know.

(6) Did she journal?
Archon doesn't know.

(7) Who are her parents? (what is their relationship with the king now? are they still living?)
I don't know her parents names - the current head(s) of the House of Goldenblade. As of when Archon and Dara parted ways, they were on good terms with the king and council...as good as most, anyway. Both were still alive as of the time they parted ways, but her older brother was being groomed to take their father's seat.

(8) Who is she working for now - some of us still don't even know the basics.
Ol' Blue. She tried to recruit Randall and the Bluemages from Oceanus out from under you. Archon managed to talk them out of it. She left angry, and presumably returned to the North, though she may still be working in the South.

Nice job on friday, everyone!

But I should note that I was wrong - I still owe you a CR 12 treasure, found with the Cadaver Collector you fought at the end of the session. As soon as I get it whipped up, I'll post it here.

Yea, Treasure! :)
Did we already get the other treasure...? Was it all bones and metal spikes? :)
 

Obviously we only know if Arhconus tells us, but this gives him more if nothing else

Archon would know things like her favorite flower and what kinds of swords she likes to use. That's about it. If you want the REAL scoop on Dara request a presence with her or talk to AB if you really want to.
L'Aurel would want to know more about her weapon choices- yes Dara is working for ol' blue but we may have to fight her down the line or there may be something specific to her talents.
Or did he have info. on her practicing any magic...

Something about secrets and a reason not to keep them:
Things like if he had mentioned this 'A friend held by the bluestar' pre-pheonix/bluestar contract there is a possibilitity we could have gotten her back as part of the deal...... if we know if it in the future there is still a possibility.

EDIT: Also, did Archonus know any specifics of her mission/travel north with Laren Nightgrove (?whichever one it was?)?
Does he know now the specifics of what keeps her North? -Did AB tell him, Did he chat about it in Oceanus with her.....?

And thanks to our rogue- we avoided a few traps, and pre-emptively didn't cluster around a possible trap :)

And thanks to our new mage- had someone to along with the rogue and help out, and make sure we fanned out :)

Yeah - there was gems and a couple of crappy items. That's it.

She was not a spellcaster before she went north, although she was always a bright young woman. She doesn't really have a favorite sword, although for familial reasons she usually prefers single-edged longswords.

Indeed.

He did not know where she was going when she left Talon HQ. She didn't know where he was going, either. He *did* know that she was going to be travelling with Laren Nightgrove (who happens to be the King's half-brother).

In Oceanus, he learned that she was now an apparently willing (and fanatic) servant of the Bluestar. Apart from that, he does not know any specifics about what keeps her in the North. AB hasn't talked about her.
