Some unexpected life events have been sucking a lot of time.[/sblock]The halfling clambering down from his stool and moving over to the quill case seems to be quite alarmed by all this."that's ... well... that's quite a terrible thing. To be going on."His eyes go wide when D'Rawth's names comes up. "He's already been here....  You know I always said it was odd that he survived the attack on the monastery when so many died" [sblock=History 10]It's common knowledge that D'Rawth was selected by Mayor Brunt to lead the abortive attack on the monastery on Mykronos' Sanctuary; the attack was disastrous, close to a hundred mercenaries, adventurers, and assorted brave souls transported to the isle in the waning days of the Day of Darkness. Even accounting for resurrections less than 10 survived. [/sblock][sblock=Who is D'Rawth][sblock=History 15]An adventurer of some renown, he was an early companion of the five and, one of <a href="http://www.enworld.org/wiki/index.php/L4W:The_Five#Aurelia_Carenvale" target="_blank">Aurelia Carenvale</a>'s many paramours.D'Rawth was a rake and a showman, a swordsman and a mage; who's signature move on the battle field involved teleportation[/sblock][sblock=History 20]It's commonly believed that he clashed with both <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/../wiki/index.php/L4W:The_Five#Jeronel_Threehammer" target="_blank">Threehammer</a> and <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/../wiki/index.php/L4W:The_Five#Mauros_Esthanapiros" target="_blank">Esthanapiros</a> which was what caused him to leave the group. The dwarf over matters of honor and the mage, apparently, had difficulty with his swelled ego (a charge that could also be leveled at Esthanapiros himself).[/sblock][sblock=History 25]D'Rawth never adventured again, though he would remain in the public eye for years; he often held soirees for adventurers at the large, rundown manse he purchased in Overgrowth and ran a successful business tutoring lordlings in swordmanship.He was linked by rumor to several saterical plays.He lost his arm, and apparently, was badly scarred in the ill fated raid. In the year since the he's been seen rarely; always wearing a heavy black cloak in public. He no longer takes students.His stock in Daunton is not good; he was apparently pelted with rotten garbage by a mob and disappeared. [/sblock][/sblock]The halfling all but runs back to his little chest, quickly producing an over sized piece of paper. The SCREAMER it proclaims across the top; it appears to be covered in hand written text on both sides, ink alternating with charcoal.  Words are crossed out and smudged out, articles are delineated by scrawled lines (also smeared out in at least one place). I would be more than willing to... lend this to you. Until the crisis is resolved, of course. The halfling pulls out another sheet of paper, scrawling SOLD OUT: THE SCREAMER in neat letters. He then pulls out another, and writes the same thing, this time using a carefully ground red ink.[sblock=The Last Screamer]Brunt lies! Hidden L'irkash wedding ritual.... cultists summon elemental abomination, and offer younger daughter as payment! Brunt lies again!"Elite" squad of guardsmen shake down halfling streetdwellers, real crooks lounge nearby. Why are they laughing? SECURE BECAUSE OF BRIBES!Brunt wastes tax money, and MOCKS the gods.Priest: Brunt's sacrilege dooms Daunton to more dark days. Slum-dwelling Jade refugees, convert to local religions, but ONLY FOR FOOD! There is a short article where where every word begins with 'b' (and the writer has apparently not been troubled to make up new words as when there was nothing appropriate); the first line reads Brunt's boluminous bunions burst balefully! Blasphemous bundles bring bawdy brotestations. Hand drawn eye-like markings have appear near two articles, The L'irkash wedding ritual, and  "Elite" squad.[/sblock]</blockquote>
