[QUOTE="Andrew Moreton, post: 7392305, member: 6920268"] The session were the players neatly avoided actually using any of the maps we prepared. At the start the team was rushing to prevent the arson at the alkelest factory, a messenger was sent to the local police station and the main body of the team accompanied by Lt Dales soldiers raced towards the factory . Manual soared ahead on Roger to investigate at this point the dice turned on him. Manual overflew the factory and noticed a wagon on the side next to it, so he landed on the factory roof on the far side from the wagon and moved stealthily towards the wagon however he had been seen landing by the brother Valandro (the bloodrager) who saw him and the bat and moved to intercept, in his high pitched squeaky voice Manuel challanged him and then seeing that was being ignored ducked away as the now large Valandro charged after him, seeing a large Half dragon with a greatsword bearing down on him he leaped from the roof top aiming to catch Roger, he missed by 1 and plummetted 40 feet down, that hurt, Valandro glided down after him and he turned to run to Roger now waiting for him and ate an attack of opportunity , fortunatly we use the hero point rules and 2 hero points later Manual was unconcious on Roger's back flying back towards the rest of the party. By the time everyone reached the factory everyone was gone the arsonists new Manual was an RHC officer from his challange and fled thinking his reinforcements were closer. The party assumes that they were part of the conspiracy and finding the incendiaries in the wagon are certain that most of the fires were started by these guys not Gale, they find in the RHC records information about the 2 half dragon mercenary arsonists and make a note to try and track them down . They then move on to trying to find Dr Von Reckinghausen, they are worried they are under surveillance after the man in shadows found them on the mountain top and if they try to follow the messanger to him they may lead the assassin to him. So Padme and Nevla creep out of the RHC in disguise while the rest of the team go and have breakfast with two of the secretarial staff dressed up as Nevla and Padme. These two track the messanger into Eastern parity lake where they encounter a fake robbery , Nevla does not believe it for a minute and they fail to chase the criminals however they except the invitation of a dozen thugs (although they mention the joy of visiting low level opponents in about 10 levels to revisit this conversation). Lorcan Kell offers to help them find the doctor to the backdrop of his brutal show , Nevla never promises to help him but works out this must be the same shipment they plan to intercept tonight and says he may hear of something later this night. She leaves mutterring to herself about hiring the arsonists to burn down this theatre. They hate Lorcan Kell and will be happy to deal with him later. The group meets back up at the breakfast bar , where they hear from Gale, they agree to meet and consult their calanders they realise they have Smugglers to intercept tonight, the letter to the doctor asked for a meeting this afternoon and tommorrow Nevard is staging his rally so they decide to meet immediatly and send only Nevlar and Manual while the other three and some constables aim to meet the doctor , as the doctor never shows up as the invitation was not delivered they don't do much. Nevlar and Manual meet with Gale, Manual stops Roger eating the Hummingbirds because it may offend Gale instead he gets Bat-Treats. Gale talks to them she suggests avoiding politics and explains she is aiming to move away from direct action to politics and gives them her information to aid their investigation and promises to assist further if she can. Nevla and Manual believe her , they ask her some questions confirming that she is not invovled in the arsons and why she attacked the tax collector, they think she is misguided but her heart is in the right place and encourage her to move away from direct action.
