The library of the Temple of Pelor in Greyhawk would certainly have the information he needed but going there was not possible, not for a long while. But that was not the only temple in existence and now that he had access to much of that existence, well, he could find another. While he inquired about that, he began the work of setting up his mobile soup kitchen. Going around to the various merchants in the Citadel, even taking trips back to the market of their first job. He also visited other temples than that of Pelor and even restaurants to see about getting their discards.
Soon word came of a Temple of Pelor, well not Pelor but an aspect called Amaunator in a place called Faerun. They were most accommodating, asking only that he share his research notes with them that they too might learn to craft such an item. Tandor was not so naive as to know he was paying for the use of their library with his time and his efforts but he readily agreed.
Research: 20+2
It was an exhausting time, but well worth it. His efforts towards getting the mobile-kitchen seemed to be moving along steadily, if not rapidly.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
After his week of Pit Fighting went rather well, he decided to take one week off to do something diffferent before returning for a rematch.
For the next week he will decide to try to make a contact with a druid or druid's organization. He will ask around to try to figure out where to go to make a contact and then travel to where he needs to make the contact attempt. Once he makes contact or when asked why he is trying to find them, he will explain how he feels that the unspoiled wilderness of his original homeland is important to him. He feels an affinity to all untainted wild lands, but especially his homeland. He is trying to get a contact with some druids so that he has the ability to request information or help if he needs it, if something or someone threatens his home or other wildlands. (What rolls would you like?)

Tandor discovers, with a bit of research, more info on what he'd need to do to get a custom crafted Amulet of the Devout that would be suitable for his purposes. He would need a jeweler willing to work two weeks on the project, and material costs would come in around 200 gold to be able to craft a special holy symbol to Pelor, but in addition, the crafting of it would require a blessed feather from an angel.
He's not able to get large donations of funding, space or ingredients for his kitchen, but has a solid go at it anyway, and through sheer determination and perseverance is able to serve many for the low low cost of receiving a bit of benediction in Pelor's name.
Tandor has gained two favors.
Trencher tries to make some connections. ((We'll tweak the Carousing for this, the 10 gp less to buy drinks perhaps and more to follow leads, curry favor, etc. Can make a Persuasion check for that.))
He then heads back to the fighting pit and works there while waiting to be able to get in a bout.

She sneaks into position, but is stymied by the lock, and inadvertently tripping an alarm spell she wasn't aware was in place, making it out just in time before the merchant's very large, very well armed guards arrive on scene.
The job she runs is a bit of a wash, they recover a few of the smuggled animals, but the smuggler themselves evades the party.
Milo tacks a new job onto the board for you all.
Habin Ju was recently robbed, or at least an attempt was made. He's seeking investigators who can turn up any information on who was targeting him. Not sure what he wants us to do, especially when he's only offering 10 gold and a 5% discount on single item purchase for the "apprehension of the miscreant responsible, or information that leads to their capture and punishment. Or death...". He's raising a stink with the other merchants though.
Mialee manages to suppress a groan when she reads the name.

Trencher's empathizing with causes of nature gets him in reasonably good with a traveling merchant who supplies various goods to a druid enclave, and joins his new friend on a run, before making contact with some of the druids there. They seem empathetic to his concerns, though would be hard pressed to provide aid at the drop of a hat, they are supportive and offer what aid they can.

Tandor, unhappy with the lack of cooperation, is nonetheless satisfied that he, at least, served Pelor well. And there was always next time. Now to find out where to get a blessed feather of an angel. He decides to check local shops that specialize in magical components. First, though, he checks in with Milo to see if he has any ideas on which shops to start with.
He's reading the latest job listing, which sounds interesting if underpaid, when Milo walks in. "Ah, Milo. Just reading this." He jerks a thumb at the job posting.

Gets Unarmored Defense and Danger Sense at second level.
At third he picks a path and takes Path of the Beast. Which gets him Form of the beast.
He has this ability because an ancient animal spirit dwells within him, allowing him to walk this path. The spirit is a type of small dinosaur that used to live in his land, it was a medium sized, fast saurus, that had a long tail and lived amidst the volcanic activity and the lava. He usually will use the 'tail' ability of this effect.
