Realm of the Fellnight Queen - In Character

[BigbyMichael]

We need to talk to Lumi again and see if she can tell us more about the bleaching and who that soon to be tiny splat might have been in contact with. Lumi and I are good friends, she'll talk to me.

[TheTick]

Elyin steps to the door and speaks to the guard there.  He nods and heads out.  "I have summoned Lumi, she should be here shortly.  As for the question of religion, I never saw Tenzekil in any of the chapels here in town.  Beyond that it would be mere speculation on my part."  He pauses for a moment to see if there are any more questions.

[SteveRogers]

"What of his friends?  Any suspicious social connections?"

[TheTick]

Elyin cocks his head and thinks for a moment.  "Tenzekil dealt with many in town, at least while his honey business was still working, but none I would consider his friends."

[SteveRogers]

"Hmm.  This is a puzzle.  My colleague is right. . . Perhaps Lumi will be able to shed More light on the situation."

[Lotofsnow]

"Perhaps it would be worth checking his abandoned home. It is possible he left clue to his current whereabouts when he left it those years ago."

[BigbyMichael]

I like the way you think, Mr. mustache, sorry I never got your name and I'm horrible with names. Just call me Al. How about the rest of you?  Before we go trouncing in to this runt's place, I want to know just what we might be walking in to.

[Lotofsnow]

"Yes, you are horrible with names. As I told you last night at the rehearsal dinner, last week at the stag party, and shortly before that when I asked you for directions in town, I am Burhan Bashir. You may call me Bashir, my friend."

[TheTick]

Elyin smirks, and then there is a knock at the door.  Lumi is escorted in by the guardsman.  She gives a weak smile and says, "I understand you have some questions?"

[BigbyMichael]

You ok pipsqueak? Listen we really need you to tell us more about this bleaching thing. I know you told me once before but that was after a match with that minotaur bitch and my head was still ringing..aaand we were pretty drunk too. These guys have a few other questions as well. You're safe here. Relax and just answer as best as you can.

[TheTick]

She sighs.  "Well, the Bleaching happens whenever a Gnome stops taking joy in life - we have to seek out new experiences or we waste away.  We explore, we invent, some of us do dangerous or daring things - like go on adventures.  But if you lose that spark, you can fade."  Her expression sours. "Tenzekil...I think he lost his spark when Elyin won the competition this summer - not your fault of course, but Tenzekil always took it VERY seriously."

[SteveRogers]

"How seriously?"

[BigbyMichael]

And what are some of the effects? besides going absolutely nutters. any powers etc?

[TheTick]

"How seriously?"

She gestures outwardly, to encompass everything that had happened today.  "A bit more seriously than any of us thought."

And what are some of the effects? besides going absolutely nutters. any powers etc?

Lumi shakes her head.  "I've never heard of the Bleaching giving powers.  This must be something else."

[BigbyMichael]

When did he come back? Have you seen anyone going in or out of his place? Or anything different about it?
