A Forgotten Realms Adventure

[josh900]

Waterdeep, The City of Splendor. A hub of activity along the Sword Coast. Within it’s walls countless men and women from all manner of different races go about their business, crowding the streets with their bodies, and the air with their voices, even in the night hours the grand city buzzes with activity, never quiet for too long.

Divided into seven sections, the city is a breeding ground for activities from the most honest occupations, to the most dark and illegal of actions. And there smack in the middle, are the Adventurers, men and women from all walks of life, suited for battle and travel, and carrying a great purpose inside each of them. Whether it be for fame and fortune, honor and duty, wanderlust and a thirst for knowledge, these are some of the Realm’s finest of people, and this is the story, of some… well, competent people.

May Tymora bless their poor souls.

The Inn of the Dripping Dagger sat on the lower eastern side of the High Road, one of the busiest roads in the entire city. Built to withstand a siege and with the battle scars to prove it, the Inn is known around the city as one of the best in the city, with great service and friendly patrons all too ready to throw out any trouble makers.

Filled with laughter and good cheer, it is a warm and inviting place despite the battle scars, with many seats for foot weary patrons, tables for cards and dice and any other sort of games one might wish to play. A private room is set for parties and patrons that desire privacy, and on the door of said room is currently stabled a note and several forms that read as thus.

“To all of whom might take interest, a vile plot made by the Zhentarim has been uncovered that threatens the stability of the Sword Coast and beyond. Should you wish to take part in the effort to thwart this insidious plan, please fill out a registry form below this notice and slide it beneath the door when you are finished, we shall then review and ask for a short interview should we find you a suitable addition to our party.”

Signed, Sir Kylan Redshield.

Below the finely penned sign are stapled the forms. On top of each is a notice written in a different hand.

*This form carries an enchantment that prevents false information from being written down, so do be kind and try not to deceive us, we’re not particularly fond of that and are very good at sniffing out liars*
