Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

Personal messenger of Grand Duke Entar, Feya Longhair was last seen traveling south along The Trade Way. She was seen briefly refreshing at the Friendly Arm Inn before continuing her Journey south.

The woman was seen on foot, armed and in good health. She carried a personal letter of the Duke.

It is unknown where her destination was. It is suspected either Amn or Candlekeep.

She has not been seen since.


She is now half a Tenday over due for her return to Baldurs Gate.


This is troubling news.



----------------------------------

Feya Longhair was a woman with short brown hair, and trained in field plate. She wore the colors of Baulders Gate on her arm. She was a faithful of the god of travelers and made prayer to him at the Friendly Arm Inn.

Feya was armed with a long blade and minor magic wards. She carried a leather messenger bag that was warded by arcane lock. She was very professional and polite. She was known to be a friendly face on the Trade Way striking up conversation with out travelers and always willing to help.

She had a fondness for aiding the youth and orphans sometimes found abandoned on the Trade Way. She was not a wealthy woman but her loyalty was said to be absolute as having personal faith in the god of Messages.

She was immune to scry.

It is said throughout this region of the Sword Coast, that the Kobold King, Nexkin the Red Scales was slain several days ago. The details are not clear, and wild tales are spinning around as to what exacly happened, but few things are sure. The Flaming Fist have his head, he was slain along with cultist of The Nemesis of the Gods, Tiamat, by adventurers and that will put an end to any further kobold menaces in near future. The kobold tribes also fell in further disarray after that fateful day and it appears everything regarding kobolds will come back into the way it once was... perhaps.

The hobgoblins who previously attacked, more or less vanished. Only a skeletons can be seen or a few black bodies, surrounded with armies of flies.

Trade is no longer disturbed by them.

An Imperial Imp, Ric Yhondbe is said to have returned to Boareskyr Bridge and spoken with a Dwarf Dunhelm Deepsnur. He informed the Dwarf that he may consider himself a winner in the competition he set. It is said he rewarded him with a Map to riches beyond his wildest dreams. But he was an Imp, and Imps well, it is said Deepsnur did not understand the map. He called out for Dwarves and their friends who aided him before to muster again!

//Sunday 9pm GMT Sunday 15th Boareskyr Bridge near Gnome Camp Open to those previously involved in collecting for Dwarven side. (If in doubt send me a PM thanks)

Well done all and thanks for playing on both sides for all the effort and RP during these spear hunts!

Leonidoss of Illmater and formerly of the Isle of Silver has returned to the Coast with settlers rescued from Waterdeep slums. He apparently hopes to resettle them around Triel all things being equal.

Sadly Leonidoss of Illmater and formerly of the Isle of Silver, did not quite make it to Triel. He and his party of settlers were undone from within. Among their group it appears there were some were rats, who had drawn other shape changers to their caravan. There was a terrible battle. Many were killed. Many were carried off. Among the fallen three former Tradeway bandits and their possessions were lost. Four former sewer dwellers of Waterdeep were among the were creatures. Five former Waterdeep Stonemasons were among the dead.

On a more positive note. Local heroes Shirtza, Rowan, Fade and Vendor rescued some lost settlers. They were aided by Araebel and Liigo. The surviving group with most of their possessions and their number gone, were led by Hell riders to Elturel. Leonidoss of Illmater and formerly of the Isle of Silver declared, new beginnings are where you find them all praise to Illmater.

Treaty at Triel

Rumour has it a number of interested individuals gathered at Triel to speak with the Hellriders hanging around there. There was individual representation and a delegation from the Elder Circle. All claimed to have an interest in the resettlement of Triel or the conduct of the Hellriders. There was a frank exchange of views and it was generally anticipated by all that there would be no settlement of the land there meantime but that it would be continued to be treated sympathetically to satisfy all parties present.

Robust patrolling uncovered some Orc scouts, portents of nature's success in the form of two Acorns. There were also two dead spies discovered. They were in possession of a storybook and some trappings of spying.

The local region of the Sword Coast witness a strange tendency of increasing numbers of elves coming as of late, from south, north and east. The elves all seem to wear similar clothing; mithral chain mails, black robes with blue borders or blue robes with yellow borders. Most of them seem to be capable arcanists as well, as they often can be seen travelling on the roards warded with mostly abjuration spells.

The elves seem to be travelling thowards one of the forests in this region for some purpose they are reluctant to share with N'Tel'Quessir- Not of the People.

With the Hellriders heavily engaged around Triel there have been recent sightings of strong mercenary companies at work in the surrounding areas. It seems they have stirred up all sort of creatures best left hidden.

Who is paying, indeed if anyone is paying does not seem to have dissuaded mercenary activity here. For fighting forces are abroad, conflict frequent.

Travellers east of The FIA, in and around Nashkel and beyond into the Greenfields may wish to consider their travel plans carefully over the next two days as the conflict and the danger hots up.

A period of intensive patrolling has ended, and the Coast returns to 'normal' as evil once again slips more quietly into the shadows of routine business.

But not before a series of encounters up and down the coast revealing all and nothing perhaps.

A number of citizens, hunters, travellers and other victims were recovered, having been lost or captured in dire circumstances.

Of note it is reported A hunter was rescued from Giants and healed by a cleric Charisa before being safely deposited at a Temple to Helm in Nashkel where Adelaide oversaw a small fund to promote his recovery.

Elsewhere two merchants were rescued from Orcs by a lone Ranger and also taken to an Ilmater temple to recover. What of the Orcs, well they were never heard of again.

Ameris another active figure over these times, here there and everywhere also personally oversaw the return of another lost soul safely into the helpful hands of the clerics.

The FAI always the centre of attention also was brought a lost citizen relieved to be safe again. He was placed at the Temple of Glittergold by an adventurer Jandar.

A hunter long thought dead also suddenly reappeared at his home outside Greenest, accompanied by two shadowy figures. He was still shaking after a roundabout route to his home. He was promptly handed a bag of gold to reestablish his fortunes and left standing in wonderment.

Other stories will likely filter along the course in due course but meantime let us rejoice for those saved.

//Thanks to the many players who one way or another took on the RP challenge of getting involved and making the world a little richer with their creative RP over the weekend. Some events merged seamlessly as wandering pcs engaged with different DMs and player groups.

Heard around Nashkel

There were three Clerics from Waterdeep,
In Nashkel they were hoping for some sleep,
Biff, boff, bash went the wolf, ah, oh, dear,
Three clerics then, no more, I fear,
Hunters chased the wolf and so, out of the window, and into the night, they did leap

Hear ye, Hear ye! The Sembite Grand Duke Xander De'Cardi is confirmed to be alive and well. He is imprisoned with in his family estate in Northern Sembia. There he awaits trial for a number of crimes, including the practice of demonology and high treason against the merchant lords of Sembia. The Midnight Sun Diamond was never recovered.

With the resettlement of rescued prisoners and lost explorers. Attention turns to recovered goods. Patrol leaders and adventurers find themselves in charge of unclaimed trade goods in the form of Glue, wool and rare Elturian cheeses. How and if this will find it's way back into the market place lies in their hands for now.

Interest is on the increase across the various Coastal temples in the recovery of an unusual number of accounts of dreams that have been taken by many as perhaps some kind of visions or something more than a mere dream. Some have taken to collecting these written works. As such like many things in Coastal life there is at least temporarily a value in dreams.

Orcs recently particularly active away from Hellrider patrol work around Triel has reportedly declined for the time being allowing overland trade a certain resurgence.

Rumours circulate of a plot foiled by healing rather than fighting. A wounded Hellrider was found to have been under the influence of some charm when relating a tale that may have sparked trouble with Soubar. Credit was attributed to a delegation from the Inner Light delivering huge quantities of sought after and bespoke healing salves.

Elsewhere in Soubar itself travellers speak of a trade delegation heavily laden travelling east by some recently repaired Gnomish Portal which threatened to explode frequently. Nonetheless they were seen to return a few days later, just before the Portal gave out, laden with rare fine silks and Cotton. It appeared at least one their group was missing. Nonetheless the mood was at that time apparently buoyant.

One or two prayers were reportedly found around the Coast, or delivered to Temples across the land.

News about one of the Coasts long term career criminals and most wanted, this just in. The Axeman, once of Baldur's Gate was finally brought to bloody justice at the hands of a small group of adventurers who caught up with this serial axe murderer in the Cloakwood forest. He lost, they won. Some of the group called at Baldur's Gate to deliver the Axeman's axe and collect a large bounty.

Another group sponsored by the same trade Company, City Merchants Guild, headed off into Frost Keep to recover a particular Frost Giant Club. They were apparently thwarted at the last moment so there was no bounty paid on this occasion. The group split and went their separate ways.

In other news the renowned hunters the HOV were found to be active between Greenest and FAI hunting down clues and closing in on an elusive assassin known as the Golden Wolf.

A whisper circulates that the Ebon Blade Captain and others of that Guild have not been seen in recent days.

One or two prayers were reportedly found around the Coast, or delivered to Temples across the land.
