We make our way downstairs into a lounge area. has a bar, couches, coffee tables and gambling tables. 3 bouncers, a kenku bartender, and a few patrons. There is a pair of twin drow. Its very clear who Amrik is.
He sits alone on the portside of the ship. Perched on the back of the couch is a spined and winged creature. About 2.5 feet tall. very large wings. Seems to be his pet. Rumored to be a Spined Devil
Lilith goes to approach him and Skraps gives her a little crystal to put in her here as like a comms with him, her, and Aurelia (Psychic Whispers feature). She sprays herself with a perfume of bewitching. She flirts with him and tries to seduce him to get him to go to a secondary location with her. He seems to be down but only if the rest of us all leave.
Skraps and Tzon go downstairs, the rest of us go up. Cassandra leaves Der'ik. Downstairs smells like vomit and urine and is leaking a little. There are 4 alcoves with drawn curtains. Also a door to the north. Skraps listens at the door. Doesn't hear anything. But does here snoring from behind one alcove. Tzon tries to be quiet and peaks in but makes so much noise. He sees a shwasted Elf who was sleeping on a cot. They wake up and yell at him a little. Skraps tries the next one. He is much much quieter. Appears to be another sleeping area. Seems like the basement is a shitty ass sleeping quarters. They check the other one and yeah nothing interesting. Behind the door is another quarter. Seems to be empty. They go upstairs with us.
Lilith and Amrik continue talking. Kind of just making small talk and basic convos. She is able to gather that he seems suspicious of her but also is still seduced by her. Upstairs we debate what our group name should be. Amrik has to take a moment to speak to a client of his.
After she comes upstairs a cloaked woman approaches her. Reya Mantlemorn. Very haunting gaze.
She asks after what business Lilith has with Amrik. She says she is from Elturel and that she was training a little to the north as the city vanished. She watched as it fell. She led a group of refugees to baldurs gate. They were confronted by the Fist and everyone scattered. She wounded one of the fist and so is now kind of a target. She wants answers as to what happened to elturel. Heard rumors that Thavius Kreeg, the high overseer of Elturel, is in the city. Last seen in the company of the Vanthamper family. Lilith lets her know that we are here to kidnap Amrik. Offers our services to get information out of him. I join in the conversation which makes everyone else notice. We start to plan our plan
We plan to bring him to the bathhouse. We plan to send Skraps ahead to unlock the door. We all head with him. Except for Aurelia who stays as backup in case something goes afoul.
Cassandra has been looking and listening through Der'ik. Amrik notices him though so he sends someone to shoo him away. Der'ik flies away. Reappears in Cassandra's pocket.
The ones who were to leave, leave for the bathhouse. It's locked. Skraps easily unlocks it. Seems that noone is here. We set it up to be very romantic and then hide in various places. Reya asks me to specifically ask after Thavius Kreeg and his whereabouts.
Back at the low lantern, Lily and Aurelia drink and wait. Aurelia heads out just a little before ready to follow as they exit. Lilith goes down to Amrik. She leads him to the Frolicking Nymph where we lay in await. His devil thing Kasharra follows and keeps a birds eye view. Amrik is pretty handsy and very much an 'owns the town' type of way. Very Yorinobu Arasaka coded.
They arrive and enter. He seems very intrigued. He requests to make use of the baths before going into the obvious path to the massage room. They disrobe and make out for a bit. Obviously Cassandra is fucking pissed and jealous. Aurelia goes and enters into the room that Cassandra and Reya are in. She makes so much noise but somehow Amrik doesn't notice. Lilith takes so long that Skraps sneaks out to nab him in the bath. Lilith bites his neck to distract him. Skraps wraps a towel around his head and grapples him. Skraps yells NOW!
Tzon runs up and slaps some manacles onto him. Cassandra casts Silence. I grab him and start dragging him towards the basement. A raven crashes through the window into the bathhouse. It grows into a little red imp. Clearly the ravens that freaked Tzon out were actually imps and they were what was killing the seagulls at the boat bar. Something else that we aren't sure what is hits Cassandra. His Spined Devil also bursts through and flies straight to me and hits me. Lilith convinces him to stand down and so his friends do too. Unfortunately Tzon, Skraps, and Aurelia cannot hear this. Tzon bags up the imp with a towel and slams him into a wall. The towel is immediately soaked in imp blood. Silence drops.
