The four of you reunite at the docks with the rush order of 13 poison that Biscotti placed this morning.

Where to next? (No rush, just asking, feel free to have your characters catch up and what not in your posts.)

“Well, through Steelclaws contacts we found it. What now, head back to the chapter house where it’s private?”

"Yes, I think so" says Lace.

"I'm still not sure who we're supposed to use this on.  Let's keep a sharp eye out for Daggers gents."

Perception. 11

Looks like Fist isn't in the campaign anymore, so I guess Smithy will head back to hq with, unfortunately, not much new info yet.

Smithy decides to head back to HQ after finding nothing immediately but with the hope some information might surface.

The others have met up on the docks after retrieving the rush order of 13 poison placed by Biscotti earlier that morning. Lace doesn't see any Daggers and figures it's because none want to be around the docks after recently getting charged with trying to sabotage a ship.

Once they arrive back at the chapter house, Etienne will carefully search the container and the 13 poison jars for any hidden messages or clues.

There is nothing else with the container or the doses of 13 poison so either there is more of Biscotti's will to be found or he just wanted to have some of this poison available.

"Did "Green Slime for Sale" say anything about the poison?  asks Lace.  "Like how deadly is it?"

Most of you have heard snippets of a conversation or a few whispers in the corners of darkened taverns. It is a deadly poison meant to kill. (If you want to help flesh out the legends of this poison you can make a post explaining how, where, when etc. that you had some interaction with the poison, feel free to embellish your accounts of any interaction.)

"No, just that it was a special rush order. I have heard tales of this stuff. If its what I think it is, it is quite deadly. Also, it is scentless, making it difficult to detect. If given in food, or drink, in other words, ingested, it is a very effective poison. Most antivenoms don't work on it, as it kills so quickly." Etienne pauses, we'd have to confirm that that is what it is, but.....very dangerous. I wonder why he wanted it?"

"Hmm, alright.  Do we have a poison lab?  Maybe Biscotti left a clue there." Lace says thoughtfully.

"well, lets head back and ponder. It could also be that these are not what they seem, but the merchant gave me the impression they are all poison, and there is nothing else."

Etienne says to Lace.

You head back to HQ to meet back up with the others. Waiting outside is a short halfling with curly red hair, he seems impatient as he paces back and forth, looking around and occasionally tapping his foot.

"Good afternoon, can I help you" Smithy asks as he sees the Halfling, wondering why he is here and if he knows that it's the Raven's HQ.

Etienne looks for anything unusual about him, also weapons, tattoos, identifying symbols. He will also look for others who may be nearby.  While he does so he removes his top hat and makes as he is straightening the brim and cleaning it up.  

Upon seeing you approach the short halfling with curly red hair calls out, "Hey there, you lot look like the right bunch!"

"My name's Vonaire," he looks around again to make sure no one nearby is watching or listening, "are any of you Smithy, Steelclaw, Fist, Lace, Etienne, or Asbestos?"

"Why do you ask friend Vonaire." Etienne says, limping forward on his cane.

"Is there somewhere more private we can talk?"

Vonaire looks around alertly.

"I don't like being out in the open."

"Yes, I am Smithy" Smithy answers. "Here let's go to my workshop"  (If I remember correctly the workshop had it's own entrance, as it was one of the sidebusinesses, so we shouldn't have to take him through HQ.)

Vonaire accepts the invitation to your workshop, looking back over his shoulder one last time to make sure no strangers are following him.

After looking around at the inside of your workshop, "Interesting! What exactly is this place?"
