Carousing/Intersession page for G68: Black Knives on the River
Richard Loubeau
Something bothers him about the seal on that chest. Richard will spend some time brooding over the broken seal, and wrangling Robert into conversations about family crests and heraldic devices, hoping to strike a chord. Is it the du Gare's?
It's not any Glantrian family seal that either Richard or Robert can recall, and as a former tax collector, Richard's knowledge is pretty thorough in this regard. It's definitely not the de Gare insignia.
Till Riemenschneider
Scrounges on the bodies of the dead pirates, dead companions, and in the barrels and boxes of both barges, looking for a new bow to replace the one he busted. Stands to the side, inert, waiting to see if anyone will control him next session while Hanna yawns stiffly and rustles into her chainmail.
Loot!
A sea chest containing 6000cp, a strongbox containing 4000sp, a gold and topaz toe-ring, an ornate dagger, a heavy silver bracelet inlaid with abstract gold designs, a silver locket whose interior is inlaid in ivory and jet with the image of a dancing woman. are shared property among the surviving members, planned for sale at the next port of call:
- Martin le Black
- Robert Hazart
- Richard Loubeau
- Till Riemenschneider
- Ja'Tubis
- Ulmarish
The following, apparently magic items are distributed (or waiting to be distributed):
- A large enchanted hammer etched with the leering face of a female vampire: Ja'Tubis
- An enchanted staff of dark wood whose upper portion is spiky and gnarled: Robert Hazart
- A petite pair of enchanted boots: Martin Le Black
Thar she blows!
Also, session summary will be here when work settles down.
Could players chime in with the names of their newly rolled players (alive or dead), for summary purpose? You can PM me or edit the wiki or whatnot.
What a fun session - well played Quen! Hope everyone had a good time, it certainly gets wild and wooly with 9 players at the table.
Rest in peace Cousin Talin. Rest in peace Ulish (?) the elf. I'll miss my Marcel most of all, it is not an easy life to be a goblin…
May we always remember you standing in front of a wall of flame, one of your foes hewn in two at your feet, the others burning and fleeing your dwarfy wrath. You axed them the question; they never answered.
Since I believe we are saying goodbye to Riemenschneider for the time being, how do we assess the value of the jewelry, ship, and booty to send him on his way? Should we give him a lump sum of xx gold pieces as he heads back home?
Let me know if you're sending him off while you're a few days' travel into the Broken Lands, so I can write up a table to see what happens on his trip home (nothing / robbed / eaten by bears).
I don't really know how else to handle it. We could stash him in the hold until we're through, then let him wander up through Darokin.
Sadly, the riverboat lacks a hold. Oh the humanity!
You could use him as a party NPC for the moment, handing him off to anyone whose PC dies mid-session. Or he can get off the boat once you get out of the Broken Lands and into Darokin, and you can hopefully pick him up again when/if the party heads back to Glantri.
I'm fine with using him as a party NPC for deaths. Don't know how long the Broken Lands are expected to be. He can leap off in Darokin and head home at that point, or remain until we hook back. Just so he's accounted for and I'm not running two PCs.
