Xambria has ended up in the head of Oxorin the Eladrin battle maniac.Their preperations for the train journey were very thorough and they completely avoided the Ob naval ambush, either its too easy to avoid or I am too nice.   They arranged for back up in all the none Danoran cities, they have a letter of introduction from Cipriano which cost them nothing although they know they will have to pay for any actual help and contacts except in Naalem and Trekholm, they feel they may have mortgaged their souls to Cipriano. In Naalem they arranged for backup via their Vekeshi contacts , and in Trekholm they were stuck until they remembered they had run into a dwarf at the arms faire and looked him up , (I forget his name) they handed over some cash and got some contacts in the Trekholm underworld. They absolutely avoided risking any compromise by getting help from the RHC and no one knows what they are up to except Drelft. Even the ship captain thought they were going on a voyage to investigate potential Ziggurat locations until they were out of sight of Land.Ka'Vert the Tiefling Sorceror and Danoran is pretending to be Finona using excellent disguise and a touch of magicOxorin the Eladrin is pretending to be Xambria , although Xambria as a half elf and much bigger muscles , this is helped by having Xambria for adviceRinakth the Deva Alchemist/Gunman is a big game hunter hired by Finona for help in her next wilderness expeditionEl Jefe is the wilderness survival expert for that expeditionTerry is disguised as a lightly different Tyrannosaur..... He is glad there are no ladders or Stairs on the trainRaven remains a Thrush disguised as a Raven and self identifying as a RavenThey are looking for the Ob who should be meeting Mr Bergeron and hoping they will identify and talk to Finona.Getting on the train was uneventful , they were careful to look at everyone getting on. Meeting with Bree and the Diamanto half orc family went well with only a few screams about missing arms. They did note a few other suspicous passangers a squad of soldiers later revealed to be travelling to the Army Academy in the capital and a nervous Oboe player going for a tryout with the Opera. Also a suspicous man who they can't pin anything on yet....Things got more complicated when more people got on the train along the way , the Lucky dwarf made them really suspicous as Rinakth was there when someone died from chocking an anaphaptic shock after eating a rare Elfaivaran nut. He provided first aid and found a poison dagger and picture of the dwarf which made them even more curious and they decided it was some sort of luck power.  El Jefe followed this up turning invisible and sneaking to the cargo section were he used speak with dead on the assassin and determined it was local organised crime, he also searched the rest of the cargo but found nothing.Oxorin had a long conversation with Boone and decided he was a misogynistic naughty word and she wanted to break his face. This remains an ambition, when they find out what he is up to he is a dead man.Rinakth spoke with the lucky dwarf whose name is escaping me , they spoke about magic and it became apparent to Rinakth that he is a competent scholar of luck magic and mediocre GamblerFinally they investigated Elanor and the person dressed in a tent, El Jefe's keen nose revealed that she was a femal eladrin being fed drugged food and they immediatly decided it was sex trafficking. El Jeffe searched their train cabin and confirmed this and confirmed that Elanor the the Eladrin were going to Naalam and only Elanor was coming back. Oxorin proposed immediate murder.  This was eventually talked down and they are planning to wait for a good opportunity probably in Naalem were their Vekeshi freinds warned by a sending spell will be happy to help get the Eladrin somewhere safe and dispose of the body. They have also made sure that Asraby has the home address of this women and her group who trade in Eladrin slaves, they expect that this will go badly for those involved.Elanor and Boone have slightly distracted them from the Ob.When the train reached cherage El Jefe and Rinakth staked out the hotel the mystery man was in but he did nothing. Oxorin followed Bree and ran into Boone, who delayed her pursuit and nearly got his face broken but she decided that while satisfying the risk of being arrested in Cherage was too high,  Raven followed Bree until her carraige got close to the sovereigns building and then turned backOn her way back to the Hotel Oxorin saw Mr Mapple jogging away from the hotel chased by guards and was amused.We finished there and continue tommorrow</blockquote>
