A note has appeared on the Ettin board, in handwriting no one has seen before:
'Hello adventurers,
My name is Towyn Kerfuffle, or Kerfuffle to my friends.
I will be arriving into Daring very soon, to set up my business. However, before I arrive, I wondered if I could employ some of you kind and gentle folk to help me in a little task.
You see, I have recently purchased a small mine in the mountains to the west of Daring. However I am a little worried I have bought a dud. I sent a surveyor out to it a few weeks ago, and haven't heard from him since. When I sent a second surveyor to find out what happened to the first surveyor, she said she wasnt going to go near the place as weird pulses of air kept coming out of the entrance.
I can't afford any more surveyors, so I hoped you kind folk might be able to find out whats happening in there, and more importantly, if there is anything of value in there. I will make sure you are all well rewarded.
Thank you all kindly ever so much.
Kerfuffle
P.S. Don't think too hard on how this note ended up on the notice board when I haven't even got to town yet."
<Current plan is for this to be a 3 session quest starting on the 19th June, but dates may vary depending on Matt and Andy's plans>

I’d be up for bringing Varis to this - The Order would be very interested in acquiring a stake in this mine of yours, or at the very least the good will of the owner.

19 June is a long time in the future (I tend not to think beyond next week) but in principle Taffeta is up for this.

You'll need a stout dwarf for this mine, to go about the place looking like he knows what he's talking about and declaring his conclusions with a certain degree of pomposity: in which case, I'm your man!

I have heard rumour that only a few brave adventurers are interested in helping me. Surely there are more who would be happy to help me in my plight for the promise of gold, loot, and mine shares.

I'll draft up a new low-level character

I think this clashes with Nuno's chain, so will sadly have to bow out this time.

"As a boy, I loved poring over my father's intricate maps of the great dwarven cities deep within the hearts of mountains ... if I hadn't taken the cloth under Berronar, I would have become a cartographer, an honourable trade as any for a dwarf ... I would gladly map the mine as we explore it if Kerfuffle and my fellows allow it."

Just had a thought about this note-taking thing. I (Jamie) am happy to take notes and they'll be fairly detailed and accurate. Taffeta, however, has an INT of 8 and also can't read or write, so if we need an *in character* note-taker, she'd be a terrible choice. Is that a problem? If an actual character needs to be taking notes, I guess I could still take the notes but we could say they're being taken by one of the other characters in-fiction?

(Jamie, the note taking will need to be done as a player to help you progress it won't be a part of the story itself. So no need to worry too much about it)
