Gustav Rorschach Journal IV

[And now more from our favorite punching hero in Mystara. What does he have to say about his adventures today?]

-Approached by Ethnegar [Ethengar] woman in camp-gave us each 100 gp, said Glantrians would give us a mission & we were to act as double agents.
27 Sviftmont-Traveled via gondola through Glantri City
->very fancy-flying cows, explosions from people practicing magic, etc., water-streets (hence the gondola)
-Met Moisseur Degeyer-supects us of spying-offered us to be double agents & work against Ethnegars [Ethengars, I should start docking experience points every time Ethengar is misspelled]-says we have to pass test to be mercenaries [in Glantri, this is a regulation practice in Glantri to make sure the mercenaries hired have some brains]
[Air-thought, detective work]
-Our job is to find Boris Regal
-Boris Regal, spy for some country-maybe Thyatis-using him to feed false info to Thyatis, Boris someties gets intoxicated & wanders off
->Black hair, 5'5", 44 years old, full black beard & stache, green eyes, missing pinky on right hand, wears dragon ring on left hand (maybe belongs to Dragon Riders)
-> 1 gp per gondola ride-rode to supply shop "Over There," [no, really, thats the name] owned by Peter
-Bought mountain tent (75 gp) from shop (sleeps 4, works on mountains), and 1 week standard rations & 1 week [stops here for some reason, then goes on]
-Went to "Stable Next To Over There," [The names just keep on getting better, at least the players will remember these names with no problems] run by Paul, & bought 5 female draft horses & equipment for 400 gp, [Myst-Alexis] [Gustav still has George] [Simon-Maria] [Velox-Xanphia] [Iago-Helga] [Blaze-Blaze]
-Peter told us to go to Tooth [Two] Fairy Inn-gay bar-chair flies over us as we enter-wild place-barkeep offers to help us in the back
->we paid him 50 gp, he said something about party in Tevoni Massion last night (26 Sviftmont)
-We go there-see a drunk blond man passed out in front-see two eagle statues on gate looking to the east-knock on door & greeted by a servant
-Mansion has enchantments that kill those who try to steal things
->We found Boris dead in basement w/ no marks or runes [wounds]-Blaze carried him out & we went back to court [Wait, you just carry a dead body out away from a crime scene? You didn't even try to find the cause of death. What the bloody hell did he die of? Lose and learn, I guess]
-Test of Void-Must do an evil without breaking the law (getting close to dark)-passed by dragging body out
-Test of Water/Time-We must research something tommorrow-will receive letter in the morning-sleep at Dragon's Teeth Inn [sounds friendly enough...] 10 gp for 2 rooms
28 Sviftmont-We travel to library-Must study story & discuss changes in relationships between characters (Troilus & Criseyde) [The players decided not to do this one because they do like to read]
-Test of Earth-Play Go-We won
Test of Fire-Become members of the Church of Rad
Test Complete! (3/5 complete-Passed Void, Earth, & Fired-Failed Water, Wind)
8 Eirmont [All the testing lasted until 8 Eirmont. They will leave on the next day back towards the Ethengar Khanates. I am montaging there journey there so that they can get back into action]

[Something you guys should have learned in this session was that the DM doesn't always tell you exactly what you need to do. Also, the DM plans on plays screwing up. Trust me, I had a hunch that you were going to fail 2 out of those 5 tests. Again, I remind you that it would be a good idea if someone else were to write a thing or two so you can have multiple view points. Velox says that he wants to write letters to his father, and I will post them up here if he does.]
