Report #023
Objective:
Assist in the elimination of a growing vampiric presence within the city of Kundar. Help commissioned by Ambassador Patricia Panbas. (Exact location of city unknown. Far enough away for teleportation to be used.)
Team:
Myself
Ruk
Jacinta
Igrainne
G’Lorth
Bones
Details:
Team met with the Ambassador at her quarters at the top of a large hill which shared location with the Cathedral in the city. Met with well guarded Ambassador, who made clear her want to have both Priestshoods (of Tiamat and Bahamat) on her side so that she may sign some political accords more easily. The Priesthood of Tiamat were especially interested in using external help in the vampire problem. She gave the strong impression to not mess this up for her.
Further explanation of the mission revealed a blood bank kept in the city for medical needs and emergencies. This blood bank usually kept secure under the supervision of a particular noble who has surprisingly reported that the blood bank is critically low. The Ambassador had done calculations to show this would be impossible, and that it is highly likely the noble is actually a vampire who is stealing blood from under their noses.
Ambassadors contacts had info on a number of wagons reported to be leaving from blood bank this evening. Our mission was to halt these wagons, likely carrying blood, and redeliver them to the Western Infirmary.
Myself, Jacinta, Bones and Igrainne split up to scout out best route of escape with the wagons, an elevated ambush spot to avoid initial detection, and the intensity of guards posted on wagon caravan. G’Lorth and Ruk went to the bathhouse.
Team regrouped closer to the time and set ambush in the scouted area. Waited until the the two guarded wagons approached, then team went on the attack. Initial focus was on the kobold drivers of the wagons, however these individuals showed resistance to the arrows and bolts flying their way. G’Lorth went up close to eliminate more of the guards on the second wagon, while supported by Igainne and Ruk. Myself, Jacinta and Bones continued to focus the initial wagon. Though the kobolds showed resistance to arrows and bolts, they were quickly burned to ash by Bones’ fire.
First wagon guard force eliminated.
Driverless wagon was taken under control by manual means of button pressing from myself, and from Jacinta’s magics asking the boar pulling the wagon to stop.
Rest of team continued focus on second wagon, the kobold driver of this one managing to escape Ruk’s slowing magics and run to the rooftops where they began a feral melee assault on the long ranged members of the team posted up there. Some swipes were taken at Bones, but this kobold was also quickly dispatched by fire, magic and arrows. Even on the brink of death they talked of their fear of their boss.
Second wagon guard force eliminated.
Once both wagons taken by team, boars asked by Jacinta to drive to Western Infirmary and blood safely delivered.
Team reported back to the ambassador, with her approval at the mission being completed the team teleported back.
Conclusion:
Some Kobold vampire spawn eliminated. Large blood supplies of city not stolen by vampire group. Mission success.
A short paragraph of Dwarvish is written in very small lettering on the back of the report, almost as if trying to hide it from the intended reader, which reads.
“Dad, I got to talk to Stripes through Jacinta today. Told that badger I loved him so much and that I would always look after him. Stripes was happy about that, which made me happy. Thought you would like to know, that’s all.”
