Hello, and welcome to our first D&D meeting. This will be mainly setup for a separate quest that will happen waaaayyyyy into the future, this is also going to be much more similar to the dnd world you know and love.
here is a rundown on my players:
Cathair- Human, fighter, level 3 so far, hes lawful good but also has a bit of a lying streak
Edith- High elf, wizard, also level 3 and an utter bitch -chaotic neutral-. She used to be a nobel but got cast away from her old kingdom
Nico: eldritch elf, warlock, also also a level three, neutral good, used to be a librarian and is now absolutely terrified of everything
We begin in the most basic of places to begin. A tavern. This specific tavern is called "the wicker goat.” A bit of information about the tavern (found on page 14 of the book ghosts of saltmarsh. -I will be referencing this book a lot so bear with me): "Bearing the dubious honor of being the oldest tavern in town, the Wicker Goat is owned by Lankus Kurrid (NG male human guard), a retired officer of the Keoish army who caters to the dwarven miners and town guard. The two-story building has sleeping quarters for rent on the upper floor, usually sufficient to accommodate the slow stream of travelers making their way through Saltmarsh on the way to somewhere else." The tavern also provides some quest opportunities if needed in the future. Anyways as you are entering this tavern there is an aged poacher standing on a table crouched over and telling a tale to a crowd thirsty for excitement.
*roleplay an old man with a bit of a pirate-ish accent*
“I was drunk on the idea of winning the darn bet -and of course the coin I would get from it- anyways I wandered in through the back door of the house. My buddies had informed me of a cellar full of wine. So I descended the stairs. Instead of wine I was greeted by ghastly shrieks and piercing wails. Even though I was in my prime at the time I was frightened out of my wits! I ran, I did! I can still remember how to get in if any of you nutjobs wanna try and prove my bluff.”
The people around the table stepped back at that thought. Terrified by whatever place he was describing. The old man then made his way off of the table and to the bar to order another drink.
My players then walked up to the old man and this is kind of how the conversation was.
Cathair: "Hey we liked ur story"
Edith: "It was boring as shit"
Old man: "Wtf do you want"
Nico: *cowers*
Cathair: "Ignore her she can a bitch sometimes"
*edith starts to say something but nico covers her mouth*
Cathair: "Anyways as I was saying what's up with that house?"
Old man: *looks amused* "You dumb fool you want to go over there don't you... Thrill seeking? Money? Good behavior points? What is it you're seeking"
Edith: "Oh you little-" *nico drags her oustide leaving cathair with the old man*
Old man: Your friends are a piece of work aren't they?"
Cathair: "Ha... Yeah ig so but you gotta love them. Anyways the house sounds real intreasting and if it's causing that much of an issue, if you don't mind sir. Me and my friends would love to be of some assistance- we are great adventurers after all.." *just lied through his teeth. Also yeah The group heard the word money and flocked straight for it.
Old man: *sees right through him* "huh... well if ur dumb enough for it just find me anytime and I'll take you to the old haunted house. It'd be entertaining at least."
Cathair: "Thank you so so so much... will do."
Okay now that we have set up a totally separate story we can actually get into our real quest in the next blog post! See ya later alligator!!!!! (Continue to next blog post)
