Party - Lucan, Béibhinn, Dallea, Vaerilyn The new party just finished all the introductory training and passed the theory Exams and earned their Adventurer Licences with the Guild in Alexandria (Guild run by Big Guy) They have all been grouped together to form a team by Quintin, As Quintin describes what's to be done for their first team mission. Lucan says "I hate goblins" when he sees Fizzle. Dallea and Béibhinn apologise for him. Fizzle put a potion bottle on the table and skitters away. We all do our introductions to each other. Dallea s drunk. Béibhinn blames Sordia Vignti for the destruction of her home in Neverwinter. Dallea and Béibhinn fight over who will drink the potion. Fizzle puts another potion onto the counter. Dallea picks up the blue potion and downs the potion. Her skin on her face turned navy blue, and she can now hold her breath for over an hour for 10 minutes. Dallea laughs at her, Lucan tells her she's turned blue. Béibhinn looks for Fizzle she sees him behind the bar and sits back down not wanting to upset him. The party dares Dallea to drink the potion she laughs waving her dagger picks up the potion and drinks it. He hands are very hot, they're glowing orange-y/red she clicks her fingers and flames flicker from them. She loves her fire hands. Fizzle puts a clear potion on the counter, Vaerilyn pushes it towards Lucan telling him he needs Fizzle to like him. He drinks the potion and can now suddenly understand every language. He sings a song to Fizzle to thank him. Fizzle runs out and starts clapping telling Quintin to give them a drink. He will do it after the quest. He tells the party Grunk is waiting for them. We head outside to meet him. Béibhinn is a big fan of Steve and waves excitedly to Big Guy when she sees him. We see Grunk pacing our front, Béibhinn greets him for the party. Lucan talks to him in goblin, saying he's actually very nice and the others are lying. His mission is to try and get a licence. We need to stop bandits who have been attacking merchants. The ability to understand fades on Lucan he can no longer speak to Grunk in goblin. Grunk repeats the explanation. Lucan queries about the pay. Grunk walks ahead of everyone and we rush after him. As they are having chats Dallea becomes too much for Béibhinn who tries to cure the alcohol from her system. Béibhinn tries to grab Dallea but falls and only grabs her ankles. Dallea tries to hit Béibhinn with her bow but keeps missing. Lucan walks over and pushes Dallea to the ground. Béibhinn climbs on top of her and cures the alcohol from her system. Vaerilyn convinces Grunk to steal the teams money pouches, he does and starts giggling to himself. He shows the party. Laughing but gives them back. Vaerilyn tells Grunk to protect Béibhinn. He takes his job very seriously. We approach the camp and see guards at the front. Béibhinn tries signalling the others to hide. Grunk is confused and is led away by Dallea but as he realises what's happening and starts to shout, Dallea covers his mouth. Béibhinn gets spotted by the guards and they call her out. She tries to convince him she's lost trying to find a lake to bathe. They call her out for lying saying there's more. Vaerilyn walks out they have a brief conversation that ends with her throwing a chromatic orb at both of them. Grunk runs up and starts stabbing him in the ankle. Dallea tries to shoot and misses, Béibhinn runs up and hits a guard, knocking his head off. Lucan charges the second killing him. They loot the bodies while Béibhinn has a panic attack. Lucan finds money, Dallea finds a coin pouch and a note. It's a drawing done by a child of their family. Looking around there's no one around but the siege machine. Grunk, covered in the blood of war, celebrates and walks ahead. Béibhinn says a prayer over the bodies. Grunk climbs into the siege machine. Vaerilyn looks around, very shoddily made. Grunk lights a back of bomb it doesn't go off at first we're all confused. Grunk goes over to look and it explodes. Half the gate gets destroyed. We go to the bandit camp. The party decides to lure out the bandits one at a time. We come up with a plan to ambush. Dallea and Grunk play the distraction. The guard approach and one draws his bow. Dallea throws herself at one in front of Grunk. The guard with the bow is dead by the attack from Vaerilyn and Béibhinn, The other killed by the whole team. The main base has not heard any of this. We head towards the main gate. Dallea tries to sneak attack the guard at the gate and fails, he alerts the others. WE run and fight the bandits. When they're dead we notice most of the bodies have nothing on them. Lucan sees a wall with a crack in it. He manages to break a whole in the wall and sees a chest inside. Vaerilyn goes into the other room and finds a map with drawn buildings, She takes the map and some coins she finds. And a weird book with weird writing on it. The others have shoved Grunk through a hole in the wall. He finds a weird chest that's sticky. He gets stuck to it. Grunk tells us he saw and eye looking at him. Lucan breaks the wall down. Béibhinn is panicking about him dying. They managed to pull Grunk off the chest, Vaerilyn pries the chest open. Inside the chest, piece of paper, a bag and an egg. The egg has a crack on it. The bag is filled with gold coins. It's curly stamped metal. Odd circular egg with faint warm glow it has a faint pulse. It cracks again, Vaerilyn goes into the room with a chair sitting down and holding the egg. Inside was a piece of cloth, it fluffs out. It's a cape. Luna moth cape. It's very magic. Grunk has a monkey toy. The piece of paper is a blank sheet. Conjuration magic. "Speak word and enter" in golden font writing in elvish. The trebuchet here has magic coming from it. Engravings that match the language on the book. Vaerilyn copies the engravings down on parchment. Grunk makes human ear chain from bandits. We all head back to Alexandria. We go to the Lucky Griffin to have chats with Quintin. We head over and present our findings. Lucan drinks another potion that makes him spit confetti every time he speaks. Quintin manages to open the book with the paper, Vaerilyn opens the book and gets visions, she gains the knowledge of Eldridge blast. Quintin pays the group 50 GP. The front door of the tavern gets kicked in. A Kobold walks in carrying two ducks. He will pay in tax. He shows Lucy and Burt. Goose the duck is missing. HE needs help to find. We go to the docks to look for Goose. We take a look at the ships. Lucan and Béibhinn trespass on ship and Squeeb sees them. He calls them out for breaking the law. Lucan throws Béibhinn and she lands on the duck breaking her nose. Lucan calls him Captain poop. Squeeb wants to speak to him. Lucan kneels down and Squeeb pats his cheek asking him not to call him Captain poop again. Squeeb bites the bottom of his ear off. Which poisons him. Lucan throws fake gold coins at Squeeb himself and Béibhinn leave to get eggs. Vaerilyn leaves the pair and goes to the Lucky Griffin. They buy his eggs and go back to the dock to give eggs to Squeeb. They head back to the Lucky Griffin and speak to Sordia Vignti to complain. Dallea and Vaerilyn choose to sit in a booth and watch as this will play out. Béibhinn with her broken nose requests to talk to "Sordia Vignti management over the Harbourmaster" Quintin goes "Alright, and calls Ellette". Ellette walks around from the back through a portal, both Lucan and Béibhinn realise this might not have been the best idea. Through her broken nose Béibhinn tells her version of events, while Ellette looks at Lucan.. Ellette "You have a slight renown, for not getting on with other races, While you're here its best to learn to get along with al walks of life", Ellette proceeds to call Squeeb and asks him to apologise, Squeeb apologises to the new would be adventurers, as Lucan and Béibhinn apologise to Squeeb for mishandling the mission. Ellette somewhat pleased with the result, tells the new adventurers where the Cleric temple is to heal the broken bones and bit off ear. Ellette congratulates them on completing their first mission and looks forward to hearing more in the future. Béibhinn and Lucan go to the temple and get the healing needed, Proceed to head back to the lucky griffon and Join Dallea and Vaerilyn for drinks and food as they drink and celebrate the night away and prepare for new adventures ahead
