Session 33

PCs (lvl 8): Flynn, Tuarninn, Udo, Ulrich

MR 674 - Spring

The party focuses their collective efforts on unraveling the mysteries surrounding the demon cults and the alarming trend of orphan kidnappings. Ulrich takes a diplomatic route, meticulously investigating signs of corruption within noble houses. Meanwhile, Flynn expands his information network by enlisting the aid of reliable beggars to serve as eyes and ears on the bustling streets of Ubersreik.

Under the cover of darkness, Tuarninn skillfully prowls the city streets, leveraging his elven senses to detect any unusual occurrences. Simultaneously, his mercenary band diligently patrols the city outskirts. Udo, the infiltrator of the group, successfully embeds himself within the Brauninger household, ultimately uncovering a sinister connection with the demonic cult of Graz'zt.

Their combined efforts lead the party to the enigmatic Theatre Varieté. Employing both covert and overt reconnaissance, they engage with the Master of Ceremonies, Benedict Gurkenfled. The investigation yields crucial clues hinting at the coexistence of kidnapped children and demonic influences within the premises. It becomes evident that a more direct and forceful approach will be necessary to accomplish their mission.

Amidst these investigations, reports of Vos war bands intensifying their harassment of villages and attacking merchant caravans become increasingly prevalent. The party recognizes the pressing need to eliminate the demonic cults not only to address the immediate threat from Count Sigismund and his mercenaries but also to quell the rising menace posed by the Vos war bands on the outskirts of Ubersreik. The urgency to thwart both impending dangers propels the party into a complex web of challenges, where time is of the essence.
