Re: Prologue
Ahz spends the evening asking around to see if he can gain any additional information about the robberies.

Re: Prologue
Goodberry returns to the group and shows off the generous provisions provided by their employer.
"You know, we might want to let the owner know if we want to hang out around the Mess all night."
He doesn't have much to do tonight either, so he spends time with Gaget while weaving a basket to hold a new plant he wants to buy after they finish this mission.
Sadly, he keeps getting distracted, and snapping his reeds.

Re: Prologue
Adoett joins Ahz for some intel gathering. And is totally better at it.

Over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore',
While I clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour,
"'Tis not possible!", I muttered, "Give me back my free hardcore!

Re: Prologue
Leah can also think of nothing better than staking out the restaurant. If the others want to set up an ambush inside, she's willing to mediate with the staff, they know her already after all, otherwise she'd just find herself an opportune shadow with sight of the hole. She has no particular preference between either option.

Re: Prologue
Koko heads back to the rendezvous instead of staying out all night trying to tail kids who can see in the dark. Once there she finds herself a quiet corner to change. Becoming more herself, or rather the-self that the others seem most comfortable with to report to the rest in a form that won't risk giving the game away if she gets spotted by the inquiring minds of nefarious kids.
Once finding the others and hopefully back in the telepathic link for ease of dissemination her information she hunkers down near Leah. 'The urchins are definitely in on it. They are lead by a charismatic boy named Cadroc who looks after them. Unfortunately recently he's been coopted by a gnomish girl named Sear, possibly through magic possibly not. Cadroc generally has their best interests in mind, but Sear from description seems to be the exact opposite. I haven't had the chance to meet either of them yet, but there is definitely an inner circle situation going on with kids sworn to secrecy and quite likely responsible for the actual thefts. They are either planning something for tonight or have a secret clubhouse to stay in during the dark hours.'

Re: Prologue
Leah considers the information brought back by Koko while returning the girl her weapons.
"As I see it, we have options now. Either we take the whole thing apart, probably killing most of the people involved in the process... or we help Cadroc get back on the coachman seat and build connections on top of finishing the job. First one is the easy way, but I think the latter is preferable still, considering we just started here. Besides, we can never have enough connections. Question is, do we intentionally let another robbery go through, if one happens, while we try to bring Sear down?"
Having said that much, Kadi notices she overlooked one last possibility. A fun possibility. A smile forms on her lips.
"Or do we bully them a bit and make Sear work for us?"

Re: Prologue
Those staking out at/behind the restaurant (Gadget, Leah, etc.) finds no suspicious movement going into or near the hidden tunnel entrance.
Ahz did not manage to gather any more useful information, just an earful of complaints from everyone he asked, as well as plenty of mundane wares they've lost. He did however help Adoett find something interesting: some residents of the Cross district claims to that the Fleas are increasing their activity in this district. This small criminal group is known for being entirely made up of orphaned kids; they mostly come from the Harbor district, and they're infamous over there for swarming lone individuals, creating havoc, and stealing from them during the chaos. Although until the other criminal groups, the Fleas aren't known for much outside pickpocketing and stealing on the streets.
Goodberry isn't even sure what he made from the reeds. Rather than something handy, it looks almost scary.

Re: Prologue
Goodberry trashes his mess of broken reeds. "Well it looks like the enemy did not move last night. I suggest our group heads into the tunnels and investigates that hidden entrance that Gaget found. Commander gave me a scroll case to shrink Adoett so he can fit." When everyone agrees, Goodberry leads the way to the tunnel entrance and gives Adoett the scroll case, the Enlarge Person potion, and then distributes the Healing potions.
He gives a Make Whole potion to Gaget, and keeps the second one
Koko, Adoette, Ashkaran, and Leah each get a Cure potion.
He lets Ahz hold onto one of the Lesser Restoration potions.

Re: Prologue
Koko stretches out a bit limbering up and appearing to almost 'condense' as she shifts down as small as she can, which, granted isn't anything like what a spell or potion can do, but a few inches is still a few inches. "Alright, lets do this thing. Try not to kill any kids, they might be my new friends alright?"
She offers everyone a charming smile and a wink before offering a very quiet, but sincere "Thank you." to Goodberry as she tucks the potion he hands her away for safe keeping.

Re: Prologue
She chooses when she blooms. An interesting power. Goodberry muses to himself. I wonder if any plants exhibit that trait.

Re: Prologue
While those born of inferior construction went to sleep for the night, the warforged kept their stakeout behind the restaurant. They discovered... a general lack of any interesting or suspicious activity last night.
On the morning of Wednesday, February 4th, the party once again gathers in the Cross district. Lucile informs you that the militia did keep watch over the other entrances you discovered, but no activity was spotted last night. With plans to delve the tunnels today, you make their way directly to the handiest tunnel entrance; it probably doesn't even matter which one, since they all connect in that junction anyways.
( As noted yesterday, the tunnels are small in size. Large-sized creatures cannot fit at all, and medium-sized creatures take a -4 penalty to attack rolls, AC, and Reflex saves. They also receive Disadvantage on all physical skill checks, and moves at crawl speed. The tunnels are also pitch dark, so you will need either some form of darkvision or light. )
( post 'Marching' order as well )
