Dark Sun Notes


Dark Sun Game Notes 5 4 12



T’Clickchr

The latest chapter began when Bay, Barok and I went to the Warrens because T’Clickchr HappyScent was last seen there. Though we were not followed, people were suspicious of our presence there, as people always are in the Warrens. Finally, after winding through a maze of cloth and corridors, we found a small building with a palm print on the door. We found that T’Clickchr has telepathic ability. He also had a cracked carapace and damaged leg from his fight with Barok. After speaking with him, he was interested in joining us, after we brought back Barok. We turned to leave, but Bay used his psionic ability to heal  T’Clickcur’s leg. While the ‘thri-kreen’ came with us, Bay remained with Ariana the healer and her protector, Regis. Though they offered to watch Bay until his leg was better, we came back that night, completely cockblocking him with Ariana. T’Clickcur made himself at home on the roof of the warehouse and we went about our business.



Zel

The next day Ohzon went to the Salt House to teach with Barok and Warren as guards. On the way there, he ran into Rodderick who wanted to talk about Barok’s fight after the sermon. Ohzon headed and proceeded to give a fire and brimstone speech condemning those that live under the ground and hide their faces from the sky. Barok spotted a woman who looked a little out of place. She was tan from the sun, her appearance more worn than others. Her name was Zel, and she was sent by Searchion to aid Ohzon. She is an elemental adept and Searchion’s favorite apprentice.



Bonesnapper and Vordon

While Ohzon was getting Zel settled in, Zarnian headed to market to get clothing made. She walked up to see someone talking to Dahn Gen. When she approached, he left. Zarnian was horrified to learn it was a House Vordon agent threatening Dahn Gen that he come work with them, or else. Disturbed, Zarnian went to have her clothing made when she heard a great commotion coming from outside and heard Barok’s name being shouted. Walking out, she saw three half giants talking shit and starting trouble at the stall. One of those half giants was originally from Nibenay, Bonesnapper. He is set to fight Barok in the secundus. He talks some crap, breaks a few pots, then takes off after Zarnian confronted him, but he talked crap about her not being able to cut it in the ring.



Noble Cabal

Meanwhile, at high noon, Bay and Cael left to see the Noble Cabal. Since they didn’t want to head directly there, they went through the market. As they were leaving, someone shot Bay in the chest. They managed to catch a glimpse of someone darting back into a building. Cael followed with Bay after her. They manage to find where the guy escaped, but that was about it. They were not able to find a trace of him or who he was, besides the crossbow bolt ripped from his chest. Since they couldn’t track down the would be assassin, they bandaged up Bay’s chest and managed to get over there. The noble cabal were not quite as excited as Bay hoped they would be. Valerie in particular gives them the evil eye. When Bay revealed he wanted to get his name back and wanted to lead them, there was great skepticism in the room. Then, to complicate matters more, he learns that Kalak has summoned the great necromancer Ardoth to court. Bay contacted Copper to warn him that Ardoth might be coming. After that, the Cabal revealed that despite our best efforts, Esticles is still not harassed. Finally, Bay asked for help in finding our Oracle.



Barok’s Boys

On the way back from the Cabal, Bay and Cael see the little boys that are fans of Barok. One of them has been badly beaten. It turns out that they ran into Bonesnapper, who slapped one of the little kids around. Bay took on the child’s injuries, and tasked the children with changing the graffiti back from Barok having his leg broken to Barok victoriously giving it to Kalak.  



Trakas

Once we were all reunited, we filled each other in on all that had happened. Trakas pulls Zarnian to the side and offered her the help of two different questionable groups. He asked if the rest of the group would be open to hearing about such people, and Zarnian said she does not keep secrets. He offered the help of a crazy powerful psionist who lives in under tyr and sells magical components and such, or a pack of crazy, blood thirsty Druids that will kill any potential ambassadors if they don’t like the mission or message. We opted to wait to contact the druids and instead go after the Psionist to gain his assistance. After a lengthy discussion of who should go or not, we settled on a group of Bay, Zarnian, Trakas and Ohzon. We went down into Under Tyr and after a while we came to a place where we felt uneasy. It smelled odd, like incense mixed with other odd smells. We saw a man with gray hair who was laying on a stone pallet covered with straw. Then, our queasiness went away. We were told the man’s name was Flynn. He knew what we wanted. He offered Bay a chance to regain his boy if Bay would allow Flynn to probe the dark part of his brain. He offered Ohzon a chance to find Astinicus and the Tunnel Boys if Ohzon would allow Flynn to experiment on his mind. Ohzon actually said yes, but only if he could come back after the Tunnel Boys and Astinicus were found. Flynn would not make that deal because he said that Trakas would kill Ohzon before he could finish that deal. Flynn specifically called Flynn our ‘potential assassin’. Flynn also offered to agree to the deal if we would kill Trakas for him. In the end, no deals were reached, except Bay offered to do a favor for Flynn in exchange for his silence on our visit.



Skyfollowers

After we left, a few Skyfollowers came to collect Ohzon, excited. We all followed Ohzon to the Salt House where several of them had gathered because they captured a member of the Tunnel Boys! Just as we were getting ready to interrogate him the game broke.
