Meeting the Characters

In the small mining town of Silver Crest, in a small ally behind a public house, a fight has just finished with the loser just starting to crawl away. The victor is a tall thin half-orc, Kalbeck (portrayed by Daniel) starting to straighten his clothes and return inside.

The inside of the tavern is filled with the sound of music, emanating from the bard on the corner stage, a Demoness, Scarlett (portrayed by V) though not for long as she rushes to meet the Orc as he enters fussing over his fighting random weirdos from the pub. Scarlett isn't the only one as the captain of the guards also concerned about the bouts of random brawling though but has more important things on his mind, recruiting the two to stake out and catch a serial kidnapper stalking the small town.

The Captain sends Kalbeck and Scarlett to a local Bakery to meet with the their handler and begin their watch.

The Marie and Twinnete Cake House has two strange new customers asking for cake. One a dangerously pale young woman with a bow on her back and axes on her hips. The Dhampir, Ece (portrayed by Smile) pays for her cake and sits down in one of the tables inside. Immediately after, a loud crystalline woman bounds in and inquires after the chemical composition of the Cakes, before making a purchase and taking a seat separate from Ece. The Earth Genasi Winifred (portrayed by Jaz) begins to enjoy her cake and tinker with some strange devices pulled from a bag.

In the corner of the bakery's sitting area is Kalbeck and Scarlett's guard. A tall and broad Firbolg in the standard armour of the city watch calmly keeping an eye on the environment. He stands to invite his two charges to sit with him.

Leaping into Action

All most as soon as everyone is seated, the Kidnapper strikes in a townhouse across the street and a fire, 2 doors down. Our heroes leap into action, crashing into the house of the victim and rushing upstairs before it's too late. Luckily the kidnapper is yet to escape, or perhaps kidnappers, as three strange beings are in the process of tying an older man and ferrying him out the window.

A fight ensues the small beings are slippery and difficult, and seem all too fond of blinding their enemies through a variety of magical means. though they are defeated all the same. Not before a larger one of their ilk try to make a final bid to escape with their victim. though this thug is quickly rendered unconscious and carted off to the jail for keeping and interrogations.

With the kidnappers foiled and a new direction for the investigation, the episode ends here.
