Merric: can I tell how many of them there might have been?
Igfig: and on the floor by the forge is what looks like a mold of some sort
Merric: Is it an interesting shade of dark green?
Igfig: as in, a mold for molten silver
Merric: oh
Merric: what shape?
Adam_The_Human: Let me guess: silverware
Arwia: Darn, I was hoping it was more moss stuff.
Igfig: not at all, but it's still warm and it appears to have been pulled open quite forcefully
Igfig: the shape is a little hard to figure
Igfig: but you eventually determine it to be the handle of an elaborate cane, shaped like a bird taking flight
Igfig: Nature?
Igfig: anyone trained?
Merric: no
Igfig: okay
Merric: I am a city-dweller
Adam_The_Human: I am not
Arwia: I have a +5 from basic wisdom bonus stuff, shall I give it a go?
Arwia: Not trained.
Igfig: How many?  Between three and eight, you reckon
Igfig: Well, give it a try
Arwia: 1d20+5
Fortuna: Arwia, 1d20+5: [13] = 18
Igfig: yeah, okay.  Looks like a kingfisher.
Arwia: Ah har.
Adam_The_Human: cool
Adam_The_Human: so now what
Arwia: HIstory check time, something I'm better at, a history check to figure out important figures who keep the kingfisher symbol stuff around.
Arwia: 1d20+12
Fortuna: Arwia, 1d20+12: [20] = 32
Arwia: Wow.
Igfig: Huh.  Um...
Adam_The_Human: oooh, I didn't think about that
Merric: That's why we are a group
Arwia: I apparently know everything there is to know about people who keep the kingfisher as a symbol that are important.
Adam_The_Human: You are a House Sigil aficionado 
Arwia: Indeed.
Igfig: This is going to take some thought for me, to figure out how much you know.
Arwia: Apparently quite a bit.

Igfig: Okay.  It's not a common symbol at all.  The kingfisher isn't even native to this region.  In fact, the only time you remember ever seeing one (other than in books) was on a small sculpture in the office of one Victor St. Demain, PI.
Igfig: *was a small
Adam_The_Human: Oh god dammit I called it
Merric: An inquisitor.
Arwia: Well well.
Merric: Wonderful
Merric: He has hired muscle as well.
Merric: I suppose we should go ask him some questions.
Merric: find out how he is involved.
Arwia: We don't know he did this, it is just that the mold on the ground was for a cane with a kingfisher in it which is oddly specifically something he does.
Igfig: Victor St. Demain is, if you remember me saying earlier, probably the top freelance inquisitive in the city.
Adam_The_Human: right
Arwia: This'll be interesting.
Adam_The_Human: final confrontation time wooo
Igfig: Do you want to see if you can remember more, or keep looking for clues?
Igfig: *more about him
Igfig: or what
Merric: I want to know how many people were here.
Arwia: Sure I could try to remember more about him, we should also look for other stuff as well though.
Igfig:  00:03	Igfig	How many?  Between three and eight, you reckon
Merric: I am tired
Igfig: I am too
Adam_The_Human: me three
Igfig: Which is why
Igfig: as you stop to consider this development
Igfig: something small and round smashes through the window
Adam_The_Human: GRENADE
Igfig: and the room is suddenly filled of dark, choking smoke
Igfig: *with
Merric: oh...dear
Merric: Run.
Arwia: Oh my.
Igfig: and that is where we will end for tonight.
Adam_The_Human: nice cliffhanger
Merric: Merric stops smiling/
Arwia: Suddenly it is a good day to not breath.
Adam_The_Human: that was probably the most fun I've had in a session in a while
Igfig: So yeah.  Until next time,
Arwia: Very fun.
Igfig: consider what you've learned so far
Adam_The_Human: yeah, bye everyone
Arwia: Too ta loo.
Adam_The_Human quit.
Merric: night
Igfig: there are some things that don't quite make sense
Igfig: night
Merric left #pwot_dnd.
Igfig left #pwot_dnd.
