OOC: I look around for any marked maps, papers, diaries, that may point to any evidence about these attacks.

			Let's find any evidence about these attacks. Brother, prepare your Draconic-reading ritual!

 

[Nicodemous]

I agree. Let us take some time to read these papers and find out more about this place. We obviously haven't made any friends here, so far. Good to learn as much as we can.

"What are we missing? the bandit said something about "his master" Is there another building or cave around here that we missed?"

Brocc takes the patent and clears a spot on the desk. Then removing a small dark red pouch for his pack, he sprinkles gray-white dust over the paper, mumbling softly.

As the ritual finishes, the letters of the page in fornt of you start to swirl dizzyingly, but eventually re-form themselves into script you can understand.

The Patent of Nobility starts with the name Vrak Tiburcaex* (Child Born of the Sword), details scores of generations, and ends with the name Bejik Vuthaner (Savior of the Black Spear).

(*Vrak is the name of the ghostly dragonborn you fought a few hours ago.)

Leafing through the books you found in the chest, you can now also read them. They appear to all be about Dragonborn ancestry, and denote hundreds of different family trees, name lists, etc. Vrak Tiburcaex is mentioned several times as a warrior who served in Ustraternes. The Vuthaner family name does not appear in these books.

There was a second Patent of Nobility among the items you retrieved from the chest. It also starts with Vrak Tiburcaex, but does not include the name of Vuthaner.

GM: Chris, roll a History check, and don't roll a 1

[sblock=More info]Go back and read the statements made by Vrak when you spoke with (and fought) her on pgs. 43 and 44 of this thread.[/sblock]

Brocc considers the historical context.

Brocc considers the historical context.

You are fairly certain that the older Patent of Nobility is genuine, and that the newer one (the one that ends with the name Bejik Vuthaner) is a forgery.

 

[Goel]

"Do you think there are anymore of those ghost dragonborn to show this to? Maybe if they knew he wasn't who he said he was they would help us."

 

[Nicodemous]

"Yes, but we only have our word that this is a forgery. The dragon born we fought before seemed unwilling to listen. Even though they KNOW this impostor has no honor. I am open to finding them and trying, but we should ready for another battle of the stubborn. Do we have any way of summoning the dragon born spirits?"

OOC: I want to roll a check to determine if we know how to find the spirits. What would that be?

GM: I would say Religion or Arcana - whichever you choose.
