The Twin Cages - Gatecrasher Team

[mimifearthegn]

((Next mission: escorting infiltration team to the other side with Team Diplomat. How does Wednesday afternoon @ 4pm US Central Time sound for people?

This will be a crossover event with the Diplomat team.))

[A Kobold]

((No idea if I'll be able to show up since I've got dentist stuff earlier that day, but hey if I'm there and it's not full then that works out.))

[Red the Rogue]

(( Should be able to make it on this end with Tavia. ))

[Nuvalis]

I redo the the account on the forum since now since my name of forum now is the same of the one of the game ^w^ and I forgot the password that I use on taptalk. So about the quest I think my charcater Amon could be good to both teams so feel free to put him where you need more people.

((I might be a tiny bit late but I think I can make that; I say it very tentatively though, because I may have another situation that will require me. Right now I plan to be there, but obviously no worry if I'm not around))

[MarblePilgrim]

I can be around for 3 or so hours of that.

After last cycle’s occurrences, Tavia writes up a report on what happened and approaches Factotum Da’nanin. She wished to hand it in person, though the redheaded elf was fine with leaving the report for him to read later if he wished.

Factotum Da’nanin,

In tandem with the diplomat team, Mercykillers, and the Doomguard, we were able to meet up with a new contact: one Justicar Sasha Andor of the remaining redside’s Mercykillers. Despite reservations towards the Society of the Sensation and their side’s Notary Tavia and Inquisitor Katani, we’ve been able to develop trust between our sides. It’s true that most of the citizenry are unhappy with the current situation and that news is coming back that the situation is unstable, despite what the Office of Civic and Social Affairs claims. The resistance was also very ill-equipped to handle any sort of fighting, which has been corrected with the aid of the Mercykillers and Doomguard. From what remains there, we’ve learned there are two more contacts to make and convince if we’re to make headway on the other side.

1: Perrik Solarkin, Grandmaster of the Order of Knights Athar. The Athar were once in the Crimson Dawn’s favor, driving out gods and outsiders alike from their side. Though they still remain loyal to the Crimson Dawn, they’re unhappy with their current loss of favor to the Cult of the Sign, their side’s Society of One. The resurrection of a god caused the Order of Knights Athar to lose favor, which leaves a valuable opening if we wish to turn them to our side if not to let things slide. With news about a risen god and the use of fiendish servants and pacting, the Order of Knights Athar may need some proof as to what’s going on to complete our objective.

2: Maserby, Superintendent of the Office of Civic and Social affairs. A man that resonates with the populace well despite the propaganda that gets pushed by them and a bit of a “pig” as some say for elves and tieflings. They handle the entertainment as well, which distracts people from the current war situation. Since it seems Maserby holds no love for the Crimson Dawn, it may be beneficial to gather him as a contact to help against the Crimson Dawn. He may need to keep low long enough until Perrik Solarkin is contacted, however.

With this in mind, I offer to stay behind to help with the team on the other side. Although Justicar Alardin suggested against it, given the actions of Notary Tavia making me less than popular, I feel I could help with building further trust and use the opportunity to scout the city more. To learn more how the other side lives and to relay any further information that can be helpful to us and any innocents that’ll inevitably get caught up in the conflict. I will leave the decision to you.

Thank you,
Namer Tavia

A few days later, Tavia gets a response back:

Namer Tavia,

It might indeed be time to place a few of our own Gatecrashers on the other side. I will make the arrangements with the Diplomat Team and our contacts.

- Factotum Da'Nanin

He then spreads the word around the Gatecrasher team, looking for volunteers to do some longer-term scouting and infiltration on the other side.

((The Infiltration / Scouting mission is open to the Diplomat and Gatecrasher Teams. There will be no in-game event, but we will do some Discord RP. Any character who joins will need to stay out of game for about a week. Let me know if you are interested and we'll set up a temporary Discord group for it.))

Tavia signs up almost immediately when she got word back.

Maraphiel preferred to pull the strings from behind the scenes awhile. Placing all her pawns and pieces in their right positions. At last she learns of a task adequate to her abilities, not conflicting her goals and, not least, worthy of involving herself in person. It draws her from the shadows. She announces she will be joining this mission.
