Rumors & Events of Baldur's Gate

[Mercator]

A very drunk man is seen walking through the Docks district yelling about the Moon, with a Preistess of Selune in tow. The man is dressed in mustard yellow robes and a wizard's hat. He then breaks into a magically assisted run, waving a golden stave about and ranting about being a ghost wiiiizzzarrd.

When the city watch catch him, he spends the night in the cells.

The Thayan lord appeared on a familliar three mast ship... the Laughing Seagull, under a setting sun. The precision of his teleportation surgical.

"Brother...? Why have you..." a young woman asks.
"You are not dismissed sister, She's all yours... I need only to collect myself...home."

The Boat ripped the sea and its waves as the Red Wizard crossed his arms with a slight smile and narrowed eyes as he watches the sun going into slumber...

Though not in Baldurs gate, some were surprised to see a fully warded Thayan knight rush headlong from Lion's way up towards the friendly arms Inn, looking as if he was pursued by something, his gait nervous as if someone was watching his every move. He was shortly afterwards joined by what could only be described as a woodsman, some may recognise the insignia he had on his arms of that of Candlekeep.

The two men spoke in hushes serious tones, a silent agreement met as the hooded woodsman went into the inn, a woman later with two blades following him nodding to the Thayan. A short while after the knight would follow..

Much Later in the evening, some of the locals might have been a bit confused, the sound from the guest rooms upstairs sounded like that of a man crying, the two people outside his door guarding it not reacting to it, merely keeping watch on anyone entering, weapons close at hand.

Within the room the knight could be seen now without his armour, he was sat on the ground rocking back and forth, an expression of anguish on his face as he held a necklace, he had wept against it, clutching it so tightly that his knuckles had turned white from it... a soft whisper was heard between the tears as the man spoke into the Necklace..

"Master...?"

The knight however was only met with silence.

Whispers from sailor and few citizens speak of a Crimson Figure arriving by boat at Baldur's Gates hastily making his way to the warehouses, disappearing into the shadows...

[Monnock777]

Rumors and whispers are floating around of a Crimson figure lurking in the shadow once again in the dock district. Some may say that they noticed coin missing or a simply that there bread they were about to eat had gone missing after hearing a faint rustling of cloth. Ones that have seen the Crimson figure may say that they only to got a quick glimpse of him before ducking into the shadows of warehouses and disappearing from there sight. Whether or not these rumor are true…only time will tell.

Zahven Thruel, an Archmage formerly well-known about the city has been seen regularly, once again, after having been gone for a little over a year on a planned trip to Memnon in Calimshan. He is said to have found work for nearly a dozen adventurers, and has led various bands into nearby dungeons and ruins. The goals of these forays is less clear.

It is further rumored that Zahven has been making pointed questions about The Order of Lions and it's lack of help for these new adventurers, and what a travesty it is that such an organization is failing to live up to its own ideals. Those that recall the founding of the Order of Lion's and building of the associated Pathfinder Hall will recall that Zahven Thruel, along with Jarresh Stillwater, Aelcar Lightbringer, and Marigold Winters, was among the founders and key financiers of the construction.

It would appear all the questions would yield a response as a letter is left at Pathfinder's Hall for Zahven.

///PM sent.

Vala and Michael leave the Twilight Rose ship with their trunks, chests and belongings. She wears a smile as she comes across people in the harbor. She of course makes smalltalk and tells them that she and Michael had decided to leave the Twilight Rose for business reasons. She tells about how much fun she had even if it was hard at times and that she is looking forward to her next big adventure.

Locals in the East Gate may notice the half elf Wren Di'Corvi making her way toward the various food vendors in the market area. If anyone overheard the conversation, they would hear her speaking of a recent occurrence involving a dog stealing food. Distrustful looks would be met with a steady gaze, and an offer to pay for whatever had been stolen, as well as an offer to reimburse them for any future food the animal might come and take.

Later, those curious might spot the silver-haired woman taking a bucket of clean water and leaving it just outside the entrance of the East Gate sewers. If anyone inquired of her what she was doing, she would politely explain the dog was, by and large, far more likable than most people. She'd offer no other reply.


((Thank you, DM Dreamcatcher for a fun little encounter! Please feel free to tap me in game for whatever payment might have been exacted by the vendors.))

At the Water Queen's House, a young novice arrives with a tithe for the goddess and the offer of her service. She then spends several hours offering devotions to the capricious Queen of the Deeps.

Two posters are tacked up all over town side by side by two women. One of them with medium brown hair and the other a redhead. They would both greet everyone in passing with a cheerful smile, though the brown haired woman was unusually giggly and nearly bounced her way through town.

The note on the bottom would in stead say this on the posters that are tacked up:

Anyone attending who would like a map can pick one up at the Blade and Stars Inn.


// Wedding Event on Saturday, June 10th, 2017 at 18 GMT.

If you choose to pick a map up:

The second flyer:

[Svabodnik]

A raggedly-dressed girl, bearing the burden of a wood-framed rucksack laced with drying herbs and half-filled flasks, pauses before yet another copy of the invitational flyers spread throughout the lands. Her attention slips past the first of the two, but she leans forward on her crook to re-read the second one pinned below it. Turning to the rooster pecking the dirt at her heels, she addresses it in an amused tone.

"Well, Kurio, I suppose for a town-dwelling tradesman or a two-copper minstrel such would certainly be a sizable treasure. Still, it could hardly procure the reagents for a truly resilient wand, or a stock of elixirs... I suppose as ones who wander in danger, our perceptions of material wealth have surely become quite odd, no? Merely a token of appreciation, I'm sure. But in that, a token still."

With a small smile, she reaches down for the farmbird and cradles it against the tangle of her black hair, crooning softly into its ear,

The decor, the dress, and the invites all set,
A wedding as sure to proceed as a bet,
The stipend for artists? A little bit lonely...
The treasury's saved for the alimony.

It is said Dread Wavecaller Perle Wynn seeks acolytes and untaken to bolster the ranks at the Water Queen's House in Baldur's Gate. Those interested in training as holy servants to appease the Queen of the Depths should contact her there.
