Fate of Or
Adventure for Autumn 819
GM: Michael Parkinson
Night & Location: Thursdays 7-10:30, chez Smith, Mangere.
Level: somewhere between (demi)god assisting and mostly irrelevant.
Requires: moderate competency; sufficient, but not excessive, diplomacy;
Warning: May be playing simplified opposed combat.
Overview
Party is commissioned by "Isme" also spelt "Esme", of Thebes & Cowland.
She would prefer at least ONE from that party (Seven For Thebes 19 years ago) that superbly assisted her father, Prince Ed, formerly Ed Swellfoot, since he was raised by Hobbits who “found†him abandoned as a newborn baby.
Of that party, Aqualina has drown drawn the short straw, with her assistant/wrangler/antidote (Flamis? Starflower? etc); MAYBE one more may emerge (Caprice ??) from the old, turn-of-the-century party — so space for another 3 or 4.
Nominally the party is searching for someone/thing last seen in the Ellenic States: allegedly known as EPIGRAM, a superficially friendly giant (almost certainly the Greater Titan Epimetheus, aka Afterthought, in disguise).
If you do have the right "Epi", you will be asked to deliver a Important Message and return with him. Which may mean having to do something for him first, since he is a demigod-like "fixer" (and, allegedly, an amateur literary/theatre/art/Reality critic).
You will be going off-plane and may NOT take an items with you, but your magic should function approximately as expected.
Your employers will be providing some short & long-term magic effect immediately before you depart.
PAYMENT & CONSEQUENCES
- You will each be paid the equivalent of 9000 sp for taking the mission, even if you fail.
- Payments, depending on the level your successes, may include: money, trade concessions, property, free training.
- Assuming you're reasonably (or excessively!) successful you may expect a choice or two from selected items in the Theban treasury — since you are advised that you're unlikely to retain any loot from where you will be headed.
OTHER IMPACT: Presumably there *are* Elvish interests involved, given their trade routes to Thebes and probably some impact to the Plane of Purple.
