Updated: 18/01/2007The Heroes: - Christopher Van Edefelt, Human Fighter 1 - Bo'Ndaga Yutu, Wild Dwarf Wilderness Rogue 1 - Vhalen, Wild Elf Cloistered Cleric of Sheverash 1 - Nova Furas, Human Sorceress 1 - Kilmer Geraldi, Human Swashbuckler 1The Story: The Adventurers arrived in Tashluta each with different purposes, all there for their own reasons. However, one thing united them - They had caught the attention of one Lavinia Vanderboren, eldest daughter of the local minor nobles, the Vanderborens. Her mother and father had recently died, and her and her brother Vanthus were their only two children. Lavinia was in need of the five adventurer's help, and sent a dark skinned dwarven druid to deliver each of them an important message, and then to get their responce. This was accomplished easily enough, with each of the five recieving the same note:Greetings, and I trust this message finds you in good health!My name is Lavinia Vanderboren, and I humble request your attendance at dinner at my estate on Festival Street and Blue Skint Lane tomorrow evening. I think that I can present you with an opportunity uniquely suited to your skills. Please inform the carrier of this letter of your responce to this invitation, and I hope to be speaking to you soon!Lavinia Vanderboren Some questioning, some answering without a second's thought, they all agreed to this dinner. The dwarf left, content in he knowledge that Lavinia's guests would attend. The next evening, the group set out individually for the Vanderboren estate in the Merchant district, and their first encounter together. Answering the door was a halfling woman by the name of Kora, Lavinia's maid. She was wizened-faced, and who Lavinia knew to be notoriously forgetful. Bo'Ndaga arrived first, swiftly followed by Vhalen, the elven cleric. After them arrives Nova Furas, the young female no older than 14. Kilmer was the forth to arrive, and finally Christopher. The young woman requested water, which the halfling fetched, along with an extra glass, and conversation soon began between the five adventurers. It was after a while that Kora recounted the guests and noticed she had forgotten that there were only five guests arriving, as opposed to the six she had believed (thus the spare glass), and, with a series of stammered apologies, she rushed off to inform Lavinia.Almost as soon as the halfling woman has left on her duty, a group of four other people entered the atrium where the heroes were waiting. These included a half-elf at the lead, carrying six or so differently-shaped knives, the dark-skinned dwarf who had delivered Lavinia's message with his wolf companion, a human woman, attractive yet hauty-looking in dark purple robes and brandishing a curved spear, and, at the back of the group, a man in a polished breastplate with a bastard sword sheathed diagonally across his back. They seemed to pay no attention to the newly formed group of adventurers, save the wolf companion. However, the half-elf at the lead did stop to look the party up and down before announcing "Hmm. You must be the help Lavinia's bringing in to do the chores. Best of luck to ya!" and then leading his group out of the front door without another word or even a glance back.</blockquote>
