    OOC: The note said to be at the Broken Anvil (which, according to the intro @Zonugal wrote, is in the same building as our office anyway) at noon. Given that we’re now standing in “the harsh daylight of a Sharn morning,” I assume we have a few hours to fill between now and then, yes?

    Correct! You have roughly four hours.

    Faber pauses for a moment, the flying amulet seemed familiar, like something he knew or should know, a nearly forgotten memory.

    "Well, I guess I am already tangled up in this nonsense, might as well see it through" John declared "I guess I'll see you lot at the tavern 'round noon."

    He turns and heads off down an alley, heading towards the small home he shares with his mother.

    Faber's memory makes a jump and a leap and forges a connection from his youth.

    The flying amulet you saw leave Cutter's corpse was a Final Messenger.
    This component is an intricate assemblage of clockwork and filigree wings, designed to serve as a communication device within Warforged units. A final messenger occupies space as an amulet, drawing energy from its Warforged host. While the messenger is attached, the Warforged may take an action to implant a destination, a target individual, the image of what the Warforged is currently able to see, and a message of up to 25 words into the messenger.

    As a free action, the host can release the final messenger, at which point it flies to its destination by as direct a route as possible. Once it reaches this location, it seeks the target creature (if one has been specified); otherwise it looks for the nearest Warforged. Any Warforged who attaches the messenger can review the message that it contains.

    Should a Warforged be destroyed while bearing a final messenger, the messenger immediately flies to seek its target. It retains its stored message, but replaces any stored image with a view of the last thing seen by the slain Warforged.

    “…And there’s the piece of the killer that flew away,” Owenn replied, reluctantly following Faber’s train of thought. “It’s safe to say that it’s reporting back empty handed to somebody. So as far as they’ll know, we have the book. Even if we destroyed it or handed it over to the Watch, we’d be these killers’ first port of call.”

    Owenn’s shoulders sagged under newfound weight. He rejoined the group, his hands shoved resignedly in his pockets. “Shit.”
    Faber provides the recollected information to Owen.
    "You're right about the periapt, the amulet that flew away. I saw it's like once, long ago. It's going to the allies of the fallen warforged, and it's taking a picture of us with it.
    I don't think we have a choice at this point but to pursue this event, before it pursues us. I'll tag along with you to visit your... less law abiding consorts. I'm sure they're not the types to expect you to be alone, but I'd imagine a second set of eyes can help make sure you leave in one piece."

    "I'd also suggest someone take a spot at the Broken Anvil early..." A brief glance at Pierce's shining golden armor, finely filigreed rapier, and eyes shining in anticipation at the opportunity for an adventure "...somebody unobtrusive. Maybe keep an eye out for newcomers or others who look out of place. Look for anybody else who looks like they're trying hard not to attract attention. It's home ground, we should recognize the regulars."

    Zed nods in agreement, happy to have a clear assignment to work toward. "Straightforward mission. Observe and report. Update the others when they arrive." pausing to add, "unless someone else would rather do the mingling."

    OoC: It would probably be best for Merchant or Faber to get there first, just to be eyes. But a lone Dragonborn isn't likely to draw too much suspicion either, I suppose.

    "Good to know now," Gator said with a nod. "I wish I had shot that thing down when I saw it."

    "Perfect job for me. Plus it's nice to unwind with a drink after a night in jail."

    OOC: Gator will head to the Broken Anvil, and find a nice spot where they can observe most of the common room.

    OoC - So, looks like we've split up.
    Owenn and Faber are going to visit his criminal buddy to see if they've heard anything about ominous cloaked figures of a literary persuasion that make clanking noises and produce dead bodies.
    John's going home to visit his mother, maybe to warn her of potentially impending violence and make sure her broadsword is sharp and ready, maybe just to take a late breakfast and a nap, and will meet us at the tavern around noon.
    Zed, Gator and Pierce are spending the morning at the Broken Anvil until the rest of us show up, while quietly and unobtrusively keeping an eye out for unknown parties.

    A New Morning In Sharn

    John Merchant journeys home after an exciting night and is comforted by the relaxed nature of his mother's fried cabbage & tea.

    Zed, Gator, & Pierce all head to the Broken Anvil and get their usual table. They act as casual as they can, while observing anyone coming & going. As its a few hours before their expected meeting, they have time to have a few morning drinks, play cards, or discuss plans as they pertain to their current situation.

    The Broken Anvil's menu:

    Drunkeness Rules
    Drunkeness

    Getting drunk happens in stages, as one circles the drain toward unconsciousness. Therefore, it is governed by a special condition known as drunkenness, which is measured in 10 levels. A drink can give a creature one or more levels of drunkenness, as specified in the drink's description.

    A creature immune to being poisoned can't become drunk, and one with advantage on saving throws against being poisoned has advantage on saves against becoming dunk as well. If an already drunk creature suffers another effect that causes drunkenness, its current level of drunkenness increases by the amount specified in the effect’s description. A creature suffers the effect of its current level of drunkenness as well as all lower levels.

    An effect that removes drunkenness reduces its level as specified in the effect’s description, with all effects ending if a creature’s drunkenness level is reduced below 1. Each hour that passes reduces a creature’s drunkenness by 1 level. Moreover, finishing a long rest drops a creature’s drunkenness to 0. If the creature's drunkenness level was 5 or higher, they instead suffer the poisoned condition (as well as a blinding headache) for 4 hours.

    Level ---- Effect
    1 ---- A pleasant buzz fills your head
    2 ---- Passive Perception drops by 5
    3 ---- Coordination wanes: Disadvantage on Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution checks
    4 ---- Words slur: Disadvantage of Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma checks
    5 ---- Poor balance: Disadvantage on attack rolls and saving throws
    6 ---- Speed halved
    7 ---- Attacks against you have advantage
    8 ---- Falling Over: Unless leaning against something, you fall prone at the end of your turn.
    9 ---- Vomiting: For 1 minute, you spend your action each turn retching. After this time, your drunkenness level drops by 1.
    10 ---- Unconsciousness, until the following morning

    Owenn, with Faber in tow, journey to the shadows of Sharn. As they pass street-merchants and hustlers they finally arrive at The Second Chance. This former theater, now a "temple", carries a certain glamor. Its gold paint has started to crack and its red carpets tear at their seams. Goblins, Halflings, Humans, and others sit on the old pews and quietly pray to themselves. At the front of the "temple" is Aldritch Lode, a Dwarven charlatan who runs this establishment.

    7z5ybfD.png

    "But by the grace of the Sovereign Host are we all judged and forgiven. But some of us are forgiven a bit quicker when we might show generosity towards the pious. We humble servants here at The Second Chance ask you to look deep inside yourselves, in your hearts, in your minds, in your wallets, and ask what can you offer to the Sovereign Host so that they might be so inclined to look upon you!?!?"

    Aldritch Lode finishes his regular spiel as he sees a familiar face enter his establishment.

    "Owenn Kemble, you son of a bitch!!!" A group of older Gnomish women gasp at their priest's language. Aldritch dances by them, "Judge a man not by his words but by his actions, ladies!" He approaches you, "I got your message. The Lord of Blades? That maniac would never set foot in Sharn but his agents? Yeah, I've heard of some tick-tocks," he then recognizes Faber in company, "My apologies... Some Warforged have been passing coins around town, looking for hired hands. I've heard a group of Shifters have signed on as muscle. Owenn, what the hell are you embroiled in?"

    Gator strikes up a low-stakes game of Three-Dragon Ante, buying ale and beer for their fellow players but not indulging in alcohol themselves. Gator also makes sure to leave a tip for the bartender after every drink ordered.

  • CelloCello Registered User regular
    As Gator makes the order, Pierce is sure to call "Your finest ale, please, barkeep! We have had a long night, filled with glorious battles and free accommodations from a grateful Watch, and have built quite the thirst!"

    Pierce quickly forgets about keeping an eye to the room as her competitive drive kicks in, aiming solely to win at cards.

    “You don’t wanna know,” Owenn said, looking taking in Aldrich’s setup. The dwarf had always been good at drawing a crowd for street con games, but this… Owenn tried to tell himself that it wasn’t really that much different from fleecing passers-by with an ‘easy’ card game. It was not a convincing lie. “Quite an… establishment you have here.”

    Faber barely flinches at the gnomes use of "Tick Tocks", he's been called worse. And, judging by the worn surroundings and general atmosphere of hopeful despair from his congregation, he's fairly certain he's been called worse by better.
    "Perhaps we should share the knowledge of our current... enterprise? If we were observed coming here, it may mean trouble for your friend. And the longer we spend here batting around imprecise language and double entendres, the more likely any observers are to draw a ...potentially dangerous... conclusion."

    Owenn responded with a noncommittal “Hmm,” then said to Aldrich, “I’ve got a couple follow-up questions, Ald, but some privacy wouldn’t go amiss.”

    When Aldrich returned his attention to his congregation—excusing himself to them with florid prose—Owenn hopped onto the nearest pew. It didn’t put him level with Faber’s ear, but it got him close enough to murmur discreetly. “Aldrich’d sell his mother to anyone willing to buy, and give her up to anyone willing to knock his teeth out. He’s helped me out of a few jams, but nothing we tell him is privileged.

    “But I’ll warn him that we’re dealing with killers, here. Don’t know if he’d be willing to walk away from what looks like the biggest scam he’s ever pulled off, but I’ll warn him.”

    Gonna need a Constitution saving throw for every drink Pierce has as well as a Gaming Set (Playing Cards) [you get to add your highest mental stat modifier to the roll] check to see who wins at the card game.

    Faber likewise lowers his voice to a murmur.
    "Aldritch already knows that you, and now me, are tied into something dangerous involving the Lord of Blades. He knows where you can be found. It seems unlikely that any further details we can provide will make him a greater threat to you, or the rest of us. We can leave out mention of the journal, but letting him know that we're dealing with suicidal, homicidal Warforged on a mission may convince him that it would be in his own best interest to avoid getting involved.
    ...Well, further involved.
    ...Hopefully it will be sufficient to convince him not to seek out buyers for this information."

    Trying to keep his head down, Zed keeps his distance from his partners, starting by ordering coffee and whatever food they have on special or recommendation ((OoC: assuming they serve food, otherwise just coffee)).

    OoC Command: If he hear's anybody speaking Draconic, he'll give them a closer to look to see if they are familiar or otherwise seem worth interacting with, otherwise he'll just hold the table and nurse his coffee, let his eyes and ears wander for anything of note. ((Perception?))

    Pierce receives one level of drunkenness while she & Gator play a truly terrible game of cards. I mean, it's really bad. It's a race to the bottom as the two of them argue over misunderstandings of how to play.

    Zed listens attentively to overhear any familiar Draconic, but its a rarity in this section of Sharn.

    As time passes Zed watches as the following patrons enter:

    -- An Elven couple in raggedy clothes
    -- A Gnome man in a dark cloak
    -- A Goblin lady covered in tattoos
    -- A Human female in a dark blue cloak
    -- A Warforged with iron knuckles bolted atop his hands
    -- A Half-Elf in a crimson robe
    -- Three Halflings dressed in circus attire
    -- A Human-like individual in purple scholar's robes
    -- An Orc dude in traditional trapper gear
    -- A Human man with an eye-patch, peg-leg, and a hook for a hand

    It is now 11:45 a.m. and the tavern is full to the lively chorus of the lunch crowd (and the breakfast crowd that never left).

    @Tox (as well as @Cello & @jdarksun), you can give me either an Intelligence (Perception) check or Wisdom (Investigation) check to try to suss out who might be the individual waiting to meet with you.

    Also, if you have been slowly drinking over the past three hours, give me another Constitution check and then roll a 1d4+1 to see how many beverages you put away during this period.

    John heads over to the Broken Anvil around this time, but he does not enter the tavern quite yet. He leans against a building across the street, and he casually looks around for any signs of people who might be keeping an eye on who is going in.

    John finds himself a solid pole to perch against and start surveying his surroundings.

    But with the lunch rush, John is a bit overwhelmed with the mass of humanoids moving around the Broken Anvil.

    He doesn't catch anything shady.

    Also, Pierce managed to see that one of the characters is wearing a signet ring of House Cannith.

    Or maybe Pierce imagined it.

    Pierce doesn't know.

    Pierce can't remember when she remembered it.

    Pierce is getting angry at this line of inquiry.

    PIERCE IS FRUSTRATED.

    OoC:I think we're supposed to have advantage on poison saving throws. Don't know if that applies to willingly getting drunk though. It might just be an astoundingly good simulation of being drunk, which would be useful for a Warforged Bard looking to establish relationships with biological warriors over a drink.

    Faber is heading towards the Anvil, our meeting with Aldritch having gone as well as could be hoped. Some useful information gathered about other warforged in town hiring muscle. Before entering the establishment, Faber will take a walk around the block and see if there are any people who stick out more than usual for this time of day in this part of town, in particular fair-sized groups of hired goons, in particular Shifters or Warforged.

    Geth roll 1d20+3 for perception.

    perception:
    1d20+3 16 [1d20=13]

    @Cello, do one more constitution roll.

    Pierce managed to fight off the worse effects of the ale, for now.

    At the moment, the Warforged Bard instead suffers the following conditions:
    -- A pleasant buzz fills your head
    -- Passive Perception drops by 5
    -- Coordination wanes: Disadvantage on Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution checks
    -- Words slur: Disadvantage of Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma checks
    -- Poor balance: Disadvantage on attack rolls and saving throws
