H3: Blood And Weapons And Tight Bitches
Sorry KT, I know you asked the same questions two or three times. Here we go:
...
Stygensport has some druids who worship Morrigan, Brigit, Braveheart, Oghma, and Cu "18/00" Chulainn. They tool around with some bards and barbarians, and seem to be involved in smuggling wildlife to the Orbane Zoological Gardens, a giant nature preserve and hotspot of druidic shit. They brew their own beer, which is fucking great, and hang out watching 'Braveheart' every weekend. Stygensport has a big DIY party scene, and the Braveheart Druids definitely have their share.
If you're looking for animals, work, or a ship, the smuggling operation may be the way to go. There are some Anti-Rangers and Pirates hunting a Killer Whale, and the Druids are doing like a radical greenpeace kind of thing- they've got a ship with a big-ass ram on it, and they're planning on ramming the fuck out of the pirate ship.
Of course, if they aren't your style, you could hook up with the Anti-Rangers and pirates, and go for it. Apparently they're also after the Narwhale Prince and his magic horn.
...
KT and Theo, message from Stavos Vanilli will be posted next, so it's likely that you already read it and know what's going on there. The letter comes from the Priests of Mercury, who run the messenger service around the Island Kingdoms.
As far as bandits and bars go, well there's the pirate thing above. You ask around about an arena, and that's when people start to recognize you. Turns out there are quite a few sports bars in Stygensport, and people watch the Bloodkeep events regularly, including John Romeo's Cold Cut Collective (pay-per-view). You get some free drinks and pass out some CDs. A couple of teenage chicks put on "PotionBack" on the jukebox, and you're about to start telling people, modestly of course, yeah that was you too, when you overhear one of the chicks say to the other "Oh I just love the Megido Bros.!"
WTF?
You head on over to the jukebox, and sure enough, JT's PotionBack remix is not credited to you, but to 'the Megido Bros.'
Anyway, there's a haunted arena in Orbane. Might be worth checking out?
...
TK, okay you actually get 3 gp because it's a +1 scratch ticket.
The candelabra will get you all to Gorgos, or anywhere else you want to go. However, the swarthy sailor tells you that you'll be on your own in Gorgos- they're not sailing into that town. Sealed off to outsiders, except for a few boats here and there with special permission. So really, they'll ship you to Tzalbourg, and you can hoof it yourself across the island back to Gorgos.
...
Threnody, I doubt Alter Self is a 1E magic user spell... it's illusionist UA I think. Not sure about See Invis either.
The rough geode is magical and is in fact an earth elemental egg. Yes, earth elementals lay eggs, they're pretty rare, and if you open it up you get a baby earth elemental. 1 HD and he grows.
The leather pouch contains 1d20 +1 bullets, for a sling or for a gun.
The "+1" necklace is not magical, but worth some $$. You sell everything (except the dagger I presume), and everyone gets 100 gp. Go ahead and re-outfit as you want, with 1E PH prices.
Nael's Magic Tracer was discussed intensively on DiD Factory a few months ago... go over there and take a look.
Arrows and clothes, check.
...
Az, okay, you stop by the Temple of Apollo. A bit more impressive and staffed than in Twilos, but nothing like the massive museums of Orbane and Gorgos.
The high priest is Lord Galahein Ambrose. Stygensport, being a lowbrow, rainy city, doesn't have much love or use for Apollo, sadly. Lord Ambrose, though, is originally from Gorgos.
"Friend Azoth, if you're headed south to my beloved, destroyed birthplace, please check it out for me and report back. I've been unable to communicate with Gorgos, even via the glory of the Sun King."
...
So to sum up: you can go anywhere. Back to Gorgos is a plan, and there's some stuff going on here too if whale hunting, whale saving, or fucking with/being pirates sounds interesting.
Plus, you each have 100 gp.
