Session #1 – Be Discreet
After the Adventurers Guild meeting the party answered an
advertisement which wanted a band of adventurers to perform a task (as
then undisclosed). It also included a contact address. So we all went off to
this address (in Seagate) where we met a fellow called Jenkins.
The task to be performed was the finding, and bringing back of, a
woman called Slynxie. After Nelson had done a great deal of unnecessary
haggling over the fee (well, I had already read the guy’s mind and found out
that he was paying as much as he could afford) we were told the known
details of the case.
These were, that Jenkins was acting as an agent for someone who
wished to have this woman found. Her description was as follows. Hazel
eyes, five foot six, about ten stone, big and beautiful. A further identifying
mark was that of a birthmark in the form of a duck appearing on the
inside upper part of one of her thighs !
After this, Jenkins offered us the use of some horses to travel to
Brastor Holdings upon. This Skuld did not seem to keen on, and in the end
he provided us with wings to fly down there upon (much to the discomfort of
Jenkins). After a non-eventful flight we arrived in Brastor Holdings where we
duly made our way to the nearest Tavern. There we found out a bit more, or
at least it was told to me then. She had last been seen in Lewiston, and
another agent hired for our task earlier had been found dead in an alley with
his, throat cut. At this point Jenkins said that he would have horses sent to
us in Lewiston and gave us a contact address in Brastor Holdings in case
we needed to find him. His parting words were ... "Be discreet".
Of course, this almost immediately suggested that something very
noticable was about to happen. Nelson and Skuld seemed to take no notice
of this and a very short while after Jenkins had left there was a fracas. It
seemed that Skuld had been accused of being a Witch, and that Nelson was
posing as a Witchhunter. The Patrons of the Tavern wanted to lynch etc.
Skuld and from where I was sitting wasn’t helping matters at all. After a bit
more commotion, I decided to try to help Skuld out. This was fairly
spectacular! I turned him into a Black Bear (this provoked a mass exodus!)
and then went quickly up to our rooms.
Skuld thought it would be a good idea if he went upstairs as
well. In the mean time the town guard were being called in. Once Skuld got
upstairs I made him invisible and got him to hide in the room. The town
guard then arrived (amazing timing that!) and proceeded to

search/ransack/loot the place looking for Skuld, whom they did not
manage to find. Nelson, in the mean time, was poncing it up with some
Castellian Ranger called Buck Rogers, pretendng to be innocent and
dropping the odd name (or so I understand it).
We then leave pretty quickly !
Added Note: Party camped outside town getting soaked, while
Hama spent night alone in Tavern. Leaves to join party in
morning after good dry nights sleep and hearty breakfast.

Session #2 – The Ghost
After our departure from Brastor Holdings we made our way down to
Lewiston. This was the woman’s home town, as we had discovered. On our
arrival we immediately made our way to the most obvious Tavern. This place
was known by the name of "The Windy Nook Tavern". Upon making
ourselves known to the Inkeep and informing him of our purpose in visiting
his town ha told us a very interesting tale. There had been an old woman
here but she had mysteriously disappeared in the not to distant past (I
forget the actual date mentioned). Soon after her "departure" a moat
unseemly apparition was noticed to have taken up residence in the Tavern.
This, the Inkeep explained, had done his business no good at all. The Inkeep
explained that he had contacted the Church of Light and that they had not
managed to "remove" the apparition but had managed to confine it to a
particular room.
We then offered to try and remove this ghost for him (and also see if it
"was" the woman we were looking for!)
The "Ghostbusters" had been formed ! !
The Inkeep offered us the free use of the Tavern and its facilities.
This was appreciated by the multitude of connesieurs amongst us ! So
we settled down to await the appearance of the ghost. On its arrival some
of us were found to be lacking in intestinal fortitude. Some threw up, and
one even threw up and ran away (this might have been Skuld, but I would
never place a slur on a fellow adventurer).
The initial shock, having been weathered left us to investigate the
looks (or distinct lack of them, Yetchh !) of the ghost. It had indeed been
female, and was about the right height, but there was no discernable
evidence of a duck birthmark on what was left of the appropriate thigh.
That was about it for the night, exceppt that the Inkeep arrived
back at about 3 O’clock in the morning. The next morning saw Nelson and
Hama vanishing back to Brastor Holdings to see if they could dredge up
any more information about the case. This left the rest of us searching
the Tavern and the town for clues. That night Skuld and Bleyze made a
visit to the local Bawdy house (ostensibly to seek out information, but I
wasn’t so sure about their motives !). This occupied the day, and night, for
us quite fully. In fact, it was another day before Nelson and Hama
returned. They had found out something though, and had also been involved
in a riot as well.
[side note: Walls of Darkness -- unsure as to what this refers. Ed.]

--
Session #3 – The Ghostbusters Hot On The Trail
The morning after Nelson and Hama get back we were rather rudely
awakened. We had been apprehended by the authorities in the course of
their investigation into the riot in Brastor. We are all taken down to the
Lewiston barracks and questioned. As a result of this Skuld and Bleyze
are arrested. Skuld thinks that Nelaon may have tried to incriminate him and
states his views !
That night I try to rescue Skuld and Bleyze (out of some misguided
sense of loyalty to a fellow adventurer, I suppose). This did not turn out
the best and all that happened was that I turned Skuld into something
resembling a large piece of string and I become enfeebled. [side note:
Skuld turned to spaghetti]. What a bad trip ! I have since decided to give
up alcohol (!) as it was the only (!?) reason for such a complete debacle on
my part. I was fairly well lubricated at the time, I think!
Anyway, the next day (the 6th I think) we all went down to Brastor
(some of us with escorts). Upon arrival at Brastor we look up Nelson’s
source, and find out that a woman answering our description had
recently had been passing a significant amount of foreign/northern
currency. A locate spell was than used to see if she was still about, this
being done in town of course. Due to our weakened party strength and my
affliction (which I then had cured) it was decided that we should enlist the
aid of the Castellian Rangers in the capture of this woman. So that night
after surrounding the hideout of this woman, who we suspected of being a
dangerous Black Mage, Nelson and the Castellian Rangers burst in. There
we found the woman in a compromising position with a man. Our entrance
was indeed, quite a shock to them ! In the immediate fracas of the arrest
Nelson got quite severely mauled by a (Wild)cat. A successful arrest was
however made. We are sure this is the woman (she even had a duck
birthmark on her thigh !).
Upon further investigation by the Brastor authorities it was
discovered that we had got the "right" woman. She was, in fact a Black
Mage, but had been suffering the effects of Amnesia since shortly after the
time when she had done away with the woman we were employed to find.
She had killed her in order to use her skin to rejuvenate herself via the
Skin-change spell. Thus with our mission successfully completed we only
had to attend the trial of Skuld and Bleyze.
This trial resulted in them both being found guilty of the charges
against them (whose number grew during the trial, due to certain
indiscretions by the defendants !). As a result of this they were both heavily
fined and, I think, they may have had a Geas placed upon them.
So ended the first outing of ...
"The Ghostbusters"
