  • Flendac (Monte) - Human Master Assassin

Chapter 68

Stoppingin Heisenburg Donna visited an old friend with the rest of us tagging along for a break from the ship. Alannis the apothecary (her friend) was concerned about the disappearance of a novice of Shellya; Mutya Buena.  Given Donna's position in the Nuln Guard she was not able to investigate and asked us do her a favor.

Since the boat was not leaving until the evening we went on an hours journey to the temple of Shellya.  Given the temple was also an orphanage for young girls bringing them into the religious order.  We went in with the guise that Morgan was a rich noble looking for somewhere to send his illegitimate children.

High Priestess Keisha took Morgan on a tour.  While Ragar and Faefiel distracted the other priestesses Tayy burgled her office (lock pick skill is useful).  There he found some money, which he left, and a book recording donatation.  On the date of Mutya's disappearance there was an entry from the Dragon club marked "MB" and another entry for tonight.  In the draw was also a card for the Dragon Gentleman's club in Nuln.

Deciding there was clearly some sort of prostitution ring going on we updated Donna and Alannis on what we had found.  Unfortunatly our boat was leaving so there was no time to wait to se what would happen that evening.  Hopefully we can find out more about the gentleman's club when we get to Nuln.

Chapter 69

Having suffered damage in another storm we once again found ourselves looking for a room at an inn while repairs were carried out.  The Donkey was full so we went to the Beaver.  Once more there were a lot of shifty looking locals probably up to no no good.  Eager to get to Nuln and work on Morgan's training we ignore them all and went to bed.

The next morning at breakfast Faefiel was sitting next to a couple who were talking about sending their daughter to the temple of Shellya after the shame she had coursed.  Joining in she found that Heidi can been sleeping with thee stable boy!  Not wanting to have the poor lass follow Mutya she convinced the parents to let her take the girl on as a ward.  The parents having been impressed by Tayy talking about the various buinesses the group runs saw this as a good move and got a lawyer to draw up the paperwork.  The parents thought we were taking her directly back to Kreutshofen but in reality we continue on as planned to Nuln.

Blood Bowl Inducement Review

Blood Bowl Inducement Review As most of the inducement options from Death Zone are allowed in LBBL games I thought it was worthwhile providing a summary of what is available.  I have also added a quick colour code to say if I think the options are Good , Bad or Situationally useful.  Remember as per the League handbook you must bring along an official copy of the relevant rulebook for any Inducement you are using.  This guide is intended to be used to help you decided if you want to buy a copy of Death Zone not as a replacement for it.  Remember folks we get an extra 5% off at Geek Retreat on League night! Death Zone offers (In)Famous Coaching Staff, new Wizards, Named Referees and a small number of other cheap options for using up petty cash.   0-2 (In)famous Coaching Staff Galandril Silverwater 40,000 gp Elven Kingdoms Extra Cheerleaders and a minimal chance of extra Team Re-rolls if that kick off event happens.  I wil...

WFRP 1st Edition Advanced Careers Chart

Image
  Warhammer Fantasy Role Play has always had an interesting system with using careers as a way for characters to advance in the game.  With over sixty basic careers they is a lot of options that players can have for their character. When you then move on into all the Advanced Careers there is a lot of options.  Coming back to the game I wanted to know what routes were available to get from which advanced career to another. As no chart existing I created one including key Characteristics that are available. Key Rectangles show Advanced Careers while ovals are Basic Careers.  I have shaded in those careers that cannot be reached from other Advanced Careers.  Given the Magical careers do not really connect with the others I left them off the diagram. The Highwayman, Duelist, Assassin and Outlaw Chief form four corners of our diagram with the Mercenary Captain as the central hub.  This allows for characters to move round the majority of advanced careers without...

WFRP - Rogue Character Progression

Image
    Background In WFRP the designers wanted a different approach to D&D and devised a system of careers.  In First edition characters start with a random career within a broad category such as Warrior or Rogue.  Later editions changed this to just a random roll across all careers.  Each career has a number of predefined career exits allowing you to build up a career path.  Fortunately you can also change to any other basic career should you have rolled badly or progressed into a dead end career. Our goal is to build a rogue as a foppish dandy by day but daring hero by night.  Elves and Halfings are our race of choice (they both have night vision). For combat we want to be using a bow or sling and try to stay at range.  Later on we can get some bolas for entangling opponents and making them easier to finish. Rogue careers start with a mix of social and stealth skills.  Since we have already made the choice not to be a Warrior the best care...
