Summaries from Nathan's interactive storytelling sessions (otherwise known as DnD)
"The mind is a doorway...
...one that you can walk through if you wish."
- the group sits outside the city talking about Tim
-Ink goes on a walk and comes back accompanied by Magpies(one of them is Mags) - they head in and go straight to the third tier, going for their blimp - but they are stopped because they have no one who can fly a blimp - Borodin goes off to make a meeting with a pilot he knows - they go into the nearest tavern, and have a drink - a friendly old man approaches them(seeing they are strangers to the city) and chats with them - apparently it is safe to sleep on the streets tonight, because Grand Master Jahman will be patrolling the streets - he then tells the story of Jahman and Bloody Christof - Christof was a serial killer cult leader, who started terrorizing Alwen(this was before the Bandit Busters were bought by the government, but they were still very widely used as an anti criminal force) - he wanted to send a message to the BB, so he ambushed Constable Thellen and few dozen Busters patrolling a road - Christof killed him, chopped him up, and dumped the pieces down the chimney of the Bandit Busters HQ - Kilvin was there at the time and was driven mad with grief - he planned, plotted, and hunted Bloody Christof, until he trapped him at Redwell - it was Christof and his forces against Kilvin and all the Bandit Busterd(about 100) - there they faced off, and Kilvin was killed(along with all the Bandit Busters) - then Bloody Christof marched on New Dragonsden - this was before the military had been strengthened by General Strafe, so Christof had gotten rid of the armies by threatening the head General - it was Bloody Christof and 300 of his cult worshipers, at the gate of ND - Jahman(in his wheelchair and wearing his eyepatch) rolled out against them, on his own, with one bullet in his revolver - then heavy fog rolled in, and huge amounts exploded from the battlefield - some time later the fog cleared, showing the piles of dead cultists, and Jahman rolling away - he slaughtered them all without taking a scratch… or using his single bullet - he was decorated as a hero, and Promised to train people if given resources by Alwen - thus the rangers were born - the group then meets with Borodin, who found a pilot for them - they all meet in a bar at the 2nd tier, and talk to Borodins contact: Keyra - she is a no nonsense knife fighter, who can fly a blimp - the group is bargaining about price, when a little green creature, with a tuft of grey hair, leaps out of nowhere to hug Ink - it is Fi!! He is Keyras associate - Keyra lowers the price because Ink and Do are war buddies - Fi will be the ship cook! Unfortunately during his time with Torrig he spoke a secret language with the old king. He has thusly forgotten how to speak common. Keyra speaks it though, and is happy to translate - Then the group goes to wait for Jahman’s patrol on market street, while Pendragon and Keyra track some suspicious individuals - The group meets with Jahman, who seems to know more than he should - Keyra and Pendragon track the cloaked people to a Magnesium Front meeting - Keyra saves Pendragons life, and they escape - the pair go to schedule a meeting with Senator Jaques, and get a lunch in the morning - all go to bed on the Phoenix(Ink and Mags work in the garden for a bit, and Borodin does msucial performances for them all) - the next morning they all go shopping(except for Pendragon, who goes to track the magnesium Front and meet with the Senator) - the shoppers look through a huge amount of equipment and meet with the famous swordmaker: Sajami - he is kind spacey, but makes amazing swords who also have personalities - some of the swords are too expensive, so the group promises to find him some equipment to pay him back - Pendragon meets with the hothead Quickdraw, and tells him about the MF meeting - Jaques promises to look into it - on the way to shopping Pendragon sees another Richter killing - the wife of the man killed(Mary) begs Pendragon to find the Richter, and Pendragon agrees(admittedly at gunpoint) - the group shops all day, and heads to see Aubrey - they talk to him long about Tim and drogas - he gives them some good advice - the team heads back to the Phoenix for dinner - Borodin does more entertainment, and consoles a confused Clint(even trying to kiss him goodnight) - Borodin reveals he is such a good illusionist that he is losing track of what is real and what is illusion - he is 83% sure that the group itself is real - the team shares drinks, as snow begins to fall on New Dragonsden - it is the first day of Winter, and snowflakes lightly dust every rooftop in the city - adventure is on the horizon Comments are closed.
