Reports Around esgaroth report a man, is.. kidnapping people, and.. selling strange meat to passersby, there have also been strange(sounds like screams), noises from the woods, Around the area where he reportedly lives. The guards would likes this investigated.

October 28/29(whichever suits)GMT 9:00 pm.
Level range 4-12 (please only participates with someone in that lvl range)

I plan for this to only be around one hour long, but I think we all know how that works XD may be split into part if it's too long or if it works better that way.

I asked for it to be put up on reddit calender, so expect to see it there soon.

EVENT: The cannibal of Esgaroth (RESOLVED) [possible more to come Post Beta] Empty A bloody and weird evening, mostly weird tho.

Post  Hacatsu Tue Oct 28, 2014 9:06 pm

It was a hot day, really hot, Hol came back from the Howling Spur, from his meeting with the Old Bear, when he decided to stop by near the Last Rest Inn, he stood at the stables, he doesn't like Inns, and this one appeared to be crowded on that particular afternoon. Leaning against the wall, he drank from his canteen and stood there, when he was about to enter metidation, the man who guards the wagon, apparently bothered that the man was standing where horses should be, or simply mistook Hol for a hobo, asks him to leave:

"You're not a horse ... [sigh and just points to the road] Leave."

Hol was too tired to even try to talk, so he just shrugs and leaves, taking shelter under the shadow of a sideroad tree, a much more welcoming and friendly place to be. After a few moments once more, Hol begins to enter meditation, the roots of the tree almost giving the feeling of a hug, the silence is ripped with cheers, then the quiet atmosphere comes back, only to be ripped once more by screaming.

Hol, sleepy and a tad bit tired, calmly stands up, glances to the Inn's entrance and sighs, that scream was not from happyness.

"It won't hurt to take a look. [he thinks to himself; let's see if I can land some help and get some peace now]"

Entering the Inn, he faces a dark, winged figure, green glooming eyes and back-pointed horns sprout from his forehead, but it does seem harmless, it is (apparently) dazed or confused, it moans and stares in surprise at something in front of it, as Hol glances to the rest of the Inn, he sees the barmaid dead, two drunktards laying on the floor, two guards desperated and unsure what to do or even what is going on, the Innkeeper is nowhere on sight.

"Ow ow ow ... My head ..." - The dark figure moans.
"The hells is going on?!" - One of the guards looks around, a hint of that place's insanity begins to grow onto his mind.

Hol calmly aproaches the guard, walking around the dark figure, and tries to reason; "Sir, can you tell me what's going on here?"

The man, startled, tries to babble some words; "E-eh? People - drunk something - fall drunk - dead - darkness!"

Once again, Hol tries to persuade the man back into sanity; "Sir, everything's going to be fine, I will help, but I need you to tell me what happened here, in details." The situation was clear, something unnatural was ocurring, and as a druid, he had to act, however he could. [Persuade roll here; rolled a 22]

The man seems to calm down a bit, as he opens his mouth to give some usefull information, a voice comes from the back of the bar;
"Hey, there's another dead person back here!".

As the voice ends, the man widens his eyes, reason futily, he just screams and bursts out of the Inn;"I'm out of heeeere!"

Hol sighs and moves towards the dark figure, after a few steps, he sees the Innkeeper, laying on the floor, passed out drunk, then a few steps more, he sees the other dead person, a noblewoman, her body cold to the touch. The dark figure just moves towards the bar, his hand over his head, moaning and complaining, something about a hangover. A guard that was near him, who also happened to be a cleric, probaly felt pity for the creature, and began to cast healing and protecting spells over him, Hol felt that the cleric's focus was a bit ... Misplaced, so he asked him;

"Cleric, perhaps you would rather use your healing powers on ... [He motions to all of the passed out drunk/dead people] Others."

The cleric simply nods and moves towards the dead woman, casting a ressurrection on her, strangely however, the woman barely stands up, and dies once more, the cleric repeated the process until Hol intervened;

"A curse, I think... Stop, you're only making her suffering worse" [He approaches her, crouching and trying to detect any magics, which he does sense some magical residues, but weak, he stands up and moves to the passed out drunk Innkeeper, the dark figure always observing and looking about, the cleric tries to revive the woman one last time, it does not work, and this time, the cleric is petrifyed.]
[Spellcraft roll here: rolled 16]

Hours passed, the dark figure was beggining to feel unconfortable, and wanted to leave as soon as possible;

"I drank the same as him!" It says, pointing to a dead half-orc laying on the ground. Hol conforts him, saying that whatever was on the drink, probaly won't have any effect on him due to him being... Different.

"We should leave here... The 'ripper' was last seen on the old forest path near here, we should investigate there."
Seeing there wasn't much to be done there, Hol nods. The dark figure pauses a moment, and faces Hol, introducing himself.

"I'm Ne'Sekoleth"
"Pleased to meet you Ne'Sekoleth, I am Hol Lennart"

Late introductions over, they move outside, heading to the forest path, where they find an seemingly abandoned camp, Hol and Ne hides and waits for whomever owns that camp to appear, but instead, they see an elven nobleman come rushing from the trees, screaming for help, but before the two could act, he falls prone on the ground, dead, with a dart pierced on his back, he was bleeding for some time, so that may have caused his death. With Hol looking around the camp, Ne searches the area and comes back;

"I found a trail of blood, leading down at the river, we should follow."

Hol nods and goes with Ne, they cross a river, heading in the direction of the Druid grove, but after going up at the hill, the trail of blood heads to the west, into the woods and near some wolf pups. Hol communicates with them, and they tell that there's an old house there, and it smells awfull, so they didn't approached it.

"I should go back and look for Vhilnya". Says the half-dragon, a tone of worry can be hinted.

"Vhilnya? Who's that? Someone important I guess."

"She's a friend"

Hol smiles "A friend -is- someone important." After that, no reply comes from Ne, Hol understands that perhaps Vhilnya would go after him at the Last Rest Inn, and given that place's situation, she could be in dire danger. With that in mind, they come back to the Last Rest Inn, and await to proceed when the time is right.
