The seaport town is a constant bustle of activity as ships dock to unload supplies and to take on fresh crew. Many of the stories she picks up are tantalizing but by and large do not relate to her goal. She hears rumors of what groups have been engaging in pirate activity in the region, what trade goods are selling well in what ports, as well as "genuine" sea monster sightings. Nothing seems out of the ordinary for a seaside city. Finally, she nails down a rumor that seems legitimate. For the price of a few drinks she learns that the name of the merchant ship that sailed out several weeks ago flying the House Tharask colors was hired out. The captain and crew never returned and their storehouse down by the waterfront was sold when it was decided that they were lost at sea. She gets rough directions on where to find the storehouse but the sailor did not know who now owns it.Meanwhile, elsewhere in town, Johan is busy sweet talking a busy Overseer for one of his House's outposts. The Overseer finally gives in and writes a requisition form for him. Johan is directed to one of the House's warehouses and escorted through a series of guarded checkpoints before reaching the interior. Inside is a staggering array of weapons and armors used for outfitting the many mercenaries that are hired out. Johan's escort is pretty chatty and fills him in on how well the outpost is doing out here. In the back of the warehouse his escort shows him several suits of full plate armor. "We don't get much call for this stuff out here unless someone needs a boat anchor. I hope you don't plan on going on any ships in that rig." Dusting off one of the suits he helps adjust the many straps to size it to fit you. Afterwards he helps him pick out a finely crafted longsword ornately designed with a wave pattern for the hilt and handguard. With your equipment in hand, your escort bids you goodbye and asks you to put in a good word for him with the House.<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=590846" target="_blank">Seria Gather Info (1d20+12=19)</a><a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=596860" target="_blank">Johan Favored in House.
