Welcome to TiddlyWiki created by Jeremy Ruston; Copyright © 2004-2007 Jeremy Ruston, Copyright © 2007-2011 UnaMesa Association
!!! Character creation
The players make a plucky little resistance team. It consists of the ~Al-Nisr brothers, clutch mates from [[Perch]], and some friends of theirs. Abu ~Al-Nisr got enlisted to fight the gnolls in Far Nujab, and came home worshipping Charnel, the laughing corpse god. Abu insists that he is the prettiest of the brothers. Tariq ~Al-Nisr spent his durance as a posh duelist, but hates the aelfir, and now spends his time in Perch as a revolutionary. "Fortunate" Tamar ~Al-Nisr spent his durance as a hunter, before returning home to join the Bound.
Therratrix is a midwife who fought with Abu in the war. She was never enlisted, so we assume that the cult she joined was somehow involved in the war effort. Slav Icktus is a blood witch from downspire, hiding out in Perch. She and Tariq were once lovers. Lyddia Jath is one of the Vermissian Sages, whom Tamar caught when she fell off the Spire. She has since become involved in the group of revolutionaries, keeping secrets (like how Abu deserted during the war and fought for Nujab), and being connected to fates (according Slav, it is Lyddia who will one day kill Tariq).
!!! So, what exactly is our goal?
Having made characters, the players settle down to look at a map of Spire and consider the question: "What needs to burn first?"
After some discussion about the districts of Spire, everyone agrees that they want to focus on corrupting [[The Hive]] to the Ministry's interest. Or particular interest are it's proximity to Perch, it's constant need for corpse disposal, and the fact that revolutionaries are trapped there.
!!! We need a headquarters, and some day jobs would be nice.
Every ministry cell needs a staging ground, and the players decide on a pub: [[The Rut & Wallow]]. It's a ramshackle pub in Perch, near the border to Middle City, and a favorite place for off-duty guards to come drink where they don't have to worry about any trouble that happens being in their jurisdiction. The floor is slightly angled after the supporting ropes were hastily repaired, and it's a bit drafty, but is has that Perch charm.
Tariq ~Al-Nisr is the bartender. Slav Icktus is one of the beer wenches. Lyddia Jath is currently unemployed, and spends her time at the Rut & Wallow as an over-educated bar patron. Fortunate Tamar doesn't work there, but the bar is in his vigilante turf.
Therratrix and Abu ~Al-Nisr work at the prison in [[Middle City]]. Both help with unwell prisoners, but in different fashions; Therratrix serves as a nurse, while Abu takes the corpse cart to [[New Heaven]] and back.
!!! Gathering information on the City Guard
The cell compares what they already know about the city guard: most of them are ill trained and poorly equipped. They're drawn from the working poor, and most live near the prison in mid-spire. They aren't villains, just local folks trying to earn a living and maybe make the city a better place to live. Some of the guards are actually drow working off a durance, but most of them are career guards (it's a living). Corruption is rampant due to the low pay (or total lack of pay for those on a durance) and the ease of skimming a sten or two. The aelfir use the city guard to maintain basic order, but when they need serious head-cracking, they have separate forces they use (the Black Guard, the Paladins, the Solar Watch, etc).
The cell is particularly interested in the Hive, smack in the center of Middle City. The Hive serves three rolls: a guard station, a prison, and the bureaucratic heart of the city guard. [[Captain Blessed]], a human mercenary, is in charge of the Hive as a guard station. The prison is under the command of [[Warden Wind-Before-Dawn]], an aelfir poet-confessor. The nominal head of the guard, city-wide, is [[Commissioner Armon LeVop]], a frazzled and ink-stained drow bureacrat whose office is in the hive. The prison also sees some number of aelfir visitors, mostly to visit imprisoned friends and rivals, or engaging in a sort of torture tourism.
The prison includes some noteworthy prisoners, whom the cell might want to liberate for the Ministry's purposes:
* Various gnoll prisoners of war
* "The Menegarie": various experiments and pets of the aelfir
* Political prisoners, including a sampling of multiple revolutionary factions
* Warriors of various kinds which might be radicalized for the cause
!!! A plan, to be followed, or maybe abandoned later
The cell decides to identify a few ("like 4 or so") guardsmen to cultivate as friends, and then work to get them promoted. They start looking for sympathetic guardsmen, and locate [[Lt. Ziminar Langley]], a fairly hardworking drow beat cop. Ziminar majored in drow studies in college, and has a fashionable number of spouses; she seems like a drow's drow.
Looking for a job to get her promoted to, they decide that [[Quartermaster Baub]] needs to go. Baub is a blatant aelfir collaborator, owes money to various silver quarter casinos, and steals from the guard's widows and orphans fund to cover his debts. Ziminar can have his job.
!!! Getting leverage on Langley
It's no use getting someone promoted if you can't control them afterwards. The cell sets about trying to figure out how to get leverage on Ziminar Langley. Therratrix collects some of Ziminar's blood while treating her for a light shanking in the prison wards. She takes the blood to Slav, who tastes it, and learns that Ziminar is having an affair with a human, [[Professor Thule]].
The cell debates the virtues of blackmailing Langley, and Therratrix notes that (via secret midwife powers) she knows that Langley loves her career more than any affair. The cell debates using the information to manipulate Langley into a debt of obligation.
They ultimately decide on the more convoluted plot, and spend some time creating evidence that Professor Thule is a professional liability to Langley. They bring this to Langley's attention as, you know, concerned friends. Langley reacts with anger and alarm, and the ministry cell helps Langley end the affair smoothly and with minimal damage to her career. Due to some lucky die rolls, Ziminar suspects nothing, and Therratrix adds Ziminar Langley as a bond.
!!! Destroying the Quartermaster
The cell decides that they want to buy out Baub's debts from the casinos. Then, use that to blackmail Baub into early retirement. Then they'll give evidence of the Widow and Orphan fund embezzlement to Langley, so she can get credit for the bust, and get promoted into the Quartermaster role.
However, this will take money. They want decide the easiest way to get money will be to rob a guard station payroll. But, if they're going to rob a payroll, they want a patsy to frame for their crime – they identify a local street gang, the [[Roaring Boys]]. The Roaring Boys live in the garden district, where they can collect *corpse fruit* (which causes hallucinations of the dead) and *godsmoke* (a euphoric and pain dulling drug), which they transport to midspire to sell to middle class drow.
Tamar and Abu intercept a roaring boy drug mule, and rob him of his supply. They figure the missing drugs will agitate the gang, and provide an apparent motive for when the guard payroll shipment goes missing. Tariq and Lyddia then take the stolen drugs to the casino disctrict, and simply trade them for Baub's gambling debts. This confuses Tamar, who thought that was what the stolen payroll was going to be for.
Tamar asks "does this mean we don't need to rob the payroll?"
Lyddia replies "well, we're not going to waste all that planning."
Tariq confirms "I don't even know what the plan is anymore, but lets rob a payroll."
However, we're out of time, so that will have to wait for next session.
!!! End of Session
The cell's impact on the Spire was minimal at best, so everyone gets a low advance.
One of the landlords of [[Ivory Row]]. He worships the aelfir gods, and is working on a giant monument to them.
Summary:
We need to ally with Mr. Alas and attack Veq’s syndicate!
But he hates religion, and we’re technically a cult.
Let’s throw a party!
What’s our theme? (Abu: “Corpses!” Everyone else: “no”)
Let’s have Esmer round up some students. And get the rut and wallow to host it.
The blood witch lair provides weird things from the university fire.
Tariq gets drugs from his threadneedle square bond, Charlindra
Abu calls on his Faithful of Charnal to provide extra party goers and decorations.
Avante garde music a la the Sound of Noise!
Everyone recovers 1d10 stress
Tamar has an argument with Hedarhi over condiment ethics, which gets several people to join the conversation and casually confess to crimes. Later, Hedhari drags him off to beat him with a punch ladle.
Mamas Thinrees gets them a meeting with Wicked Mr. Alas.
The party discusses sales pitches for an alliance with Mr. Alas - problem: he hates religions and cults. Bonus: they already want to go after Lord Veq, so getting kickbacks from Alas would be nice.
Alas wants more chaos, in order to move into Pilgrim’s Walk. Destroy two guard outposts:
Vulgate Post (based on old Vermissian station)
Godstreet Post
Players agree, and leave to plan.
Reassign one station to Gwynn Enforr
Destroy the other one, and frame the syndicate
Tamar has a plan: someone get arrested, and I’ll switch places with them (armed), and kill everyone.
Armon LeVop says he can’t just shut down a station that has good results. The station would need to have local complaints or bad results.
OTOH, he’s mustering guards (1 per station) to create a couple news stations in Ivory Row
(PCs: this sounds like a clerical error waiting to happen!)
Therratrix whips up some false documents to drain Godstreet Post of it’s guards.
Tamar gets Hedarhi a posting at the new Ivory Road station, just because he can.
Godstreet post looks like a twisting tower reaching from floor to ceiling of the chamber, covered with weird windows
Vulgate post looks like a train station, but with the vermissian tube at a 45 degree angle.
Tariq plans on creating a riot outside of Godstreet post. This is successful. The Altar of the Hungry Deep and the Asbinian Heresy are very angry with the guard post now,.
The guard responds by reinforcing the guard post and engaging in goodwill efforts allying with the local Sect of the Great Glass Eye and the Church of the Eight.
Tamar robs the Sect of the Great Glass Eye, and steals their main holy relic (Steal + Religion), and sneaks it in the Godstreet post (Sneak + Order). Framing Lt. Evil John.
Slav spreads rumors that one of the local cults is being targeted by guards (Decevie + Religon), which is somewhat successful. Tariq has his cadre of revolutionaries to similarly spread lies, which is also successful. The Marble Lady turns against the guard station.
Enough local faiths revolt against the guard station that it gets shut down.
Abu gets himself arrested at at Vulgate station, by harrassing the followers of Plur by running naked (mask on though) through their temple and claiming that sex with the frog idol will cure social diseases.
Fortunate Tamar uses Saint of Hidden Places to swap places with Abu. Abu gets dressed. Tamar, geared with murder tools, finds himself in the Vulgate jail cells. He extricates himself, and prowls about unseen.
Therratrix uses pluck the web to get the syndicate and the guard to act on each other.
Tariq uses My Name is Legion to march on Vulgate station as an entire riot. At the time of peak chaos, the PCs strike Vulgate station.
While combat goes on, the PCs debate the causes of gentrification, and constructive means of combating it.
The guard station has roudy jail cages, loose railings, and a giant chandelier
Slav spreads blood on three guards. Abu shoots a guard with a crossbow. Therratrix rips out a guard’s throat.
One of the guards slaps Slav with a halberd
Slav yells “Police Brutality” and stabs the guard with her sword, sending him falling over a loose railing.he
Abu and Miracle pushes a guard against the rowdy cage, and then stabs him. The guard dies.
Tariq posses an unusually burly rioter, to have them yells “Police Brutality! They’re attacking people!” (Compel + Religion). A horde of angry rioting pilgims flood the station.
Tamar appears on top of the chandalier, and cuts the cord, dropping it on the guard and killing him.
Guards attack Slav and Therratrix. Therratrix avoids damage, but Slav takes a halberd strike.
Slav stabs the guard, but hits back. Slav’s leg is broken.
Tariq’s rioter runs to Slav’s rescue, and swats at the guard with a chair.
Abu stabs the guard that’s attacking Therratrix, doing 3 damage.
Therratrix runs over to defend Slav, who is defenseless, and kills the guard. This is a refresh action.
Fortune Tamar leaps on the last guard, but takes a halbert to the belly for his troubles. At least this distracts the guard, and Abu and Miracle rip it apart.
The rioters start a fire in the post’s main office. The PCs free the prisoners in the jail.
The PCs leave the guard post lieutenant, and try to convince him that the Syndicate Sinister is behind this. Deceive + Crime. Tamar takes d3 shadow stress.
Therratrix wraps Slav Iktus in a perfect cocoon to heal her broken leg.
Later an uptick in crime in pilgrim’s walk is noted.
The return to Mr. Alas!
He is impressed, and they make a deal - in return for securing either the Hemlock Fruit Market or the L’Enfor Noir for him, and he’ll give them free use of Bridge Station.
Tamar investigates the Fruitmarket. He gets caught asking around, and draws attention from undying lieutenants. Stone-Strong-Grass-Green, an undying aelfir enforcer, takes notice of Tamar and bans him from the fruit market.
Therratrix investigates L’Enfor Noir to offer her services as a midwife. The staff member she speaks with (Temperance) declines, provides Therratrix with a complimentary drink, and departs. Therratrix opens her Eyes of Ishkral to see for magic - the various drugs have magic effects, and the staff members are all connected to some sort magic upstairs.
Abu decides to visit the L’Enfor Noir brothels to sleep with a gnoll prostitute, and Therratrix joins in. They all go upstairs. Their gnoll prostitute is named “Gwendolyne.” Therratrix slips away while Abu has an enjoyably deviant event. Therratrix sneaks to the top floor.
Ring artifact, four surgical chambers, clockwork beetle surgeons, ducts everywhere
She sees a Yssian Dark Goat, which beckons her to stay silent “shh” She backs away.
Tariq goes to Threadneedle Square, to talk to Charlindra. He buys some Carotid.
Finds out that The Three run the smugglers, and Stone-Strong-Grass-Green runs the market.
Everyone gets a moderate advance for destroying guard posts.
A human mercenary and city guard captain.
He's basically *Brian Blessed* with a mask on.

One of [[Wicked Mr. Alas]]' lieutenants. Formerly one of [[The Hidden]], and he still dresses like one. He carries an illegal rapier and parrying blade, and seems formidable.
Has met Fortunate Tamar at a [[Sunlight Collective]] party.
A district of dilapidated mansions above [[Middle City]]
Run by three landlords:
[[Archbishop Wynn]]
[[Wicked Mr. Alas]]
[[Lady Thorns on Silk]]
[[The Hidden]] live here in secret.
The [[Sunlight Collective]] parties here in the open.
A human mercenary working for Gywnn-Enforr campus security. Wildly overqualified for his job.
Missing Players
Both Fortunate Tamar and Therratrix are missing today's sessions, due to (respectively) Gloranthan obligations and grad school. The rest of the group concludes that Therratrix is busy doing nursing rounds at the prison, and Tamar has been arrested by campus security again.
There is some suggestion that Tamar is actually in a relationship with Hedarhi Nivresod (the campus security jail clerk), and getting himself arrested as a pretense to hang out with her.
Slav Icktus gets a new lair
Slav has a new Blood Witch advance: her own lair! She wants a lair near the Rut & Wallow, but not too close. She notes that there is an old abandoned shrine near the tavern: a Tavian Crux. She decides to convert it into a blood witch lair.
No one is particularly sure what a Tavian Crux actually is, but it's on the map.
She asks the rest of the cell to help her move her belongs over, which they do. The interior of the lair is pretty creepy, with the walls now constantly dripping efluvia and viscera, strange rattles and noises, and Slav's pet hexitongue goat just hanging out and screaming at the shadows. Lydda notes that there is a hole in the floor that drains into the Vermissian, which is probably what allows Slav to maintain contact with the Heart.
What to do with the captive?
Now that the cell has dealt with the madness of Professor Vex, they consider taking additional action against the Department of Applied Galvanics. Tariq suggests that as long as the remaining professors aren't electrocuting Perch, this isn't really any problem with them, and there are more pressing problems.
The cell turns to their captive, the grad student Esmer. She is brilliant, beautiful, and connected to at least middle class wealth, so she'll likely to far in spire. Also, usefully, the cell has blackmail on her, due to her involvement with Vex's campaign to electrocute Perch, and worse, steal research from other professors.
Slav Icktus claims Esmer as an individual level bond.
To Red Row!
The cell discusses what to do now. They have their usual list of suspects causing problems in the prison, plus indications that at least a couple of those groups have pulled people out of the prison and unleashed them on the city: a gaggle of demonologists have apparently open an incursion in Pilgrim's Walk, and a collection of murderous toughs have reappeared as undying thugs in Red Row.
Tariq presses the rest of the cell to look into the Red Row business; he has a bond in Threadneedle Square that he'd like to look after. Abu agrees, on account of wanting to catch a Joust in the North Docks on the way.
The journey takes about a day to get downspire, between the constant guard checkpoints and switchback corridors.
Gathering Intel
Abu and Lydda hand out seditious leaflets (from Tariq's team of rebellious printers) while asking around about the Undying Gang.
Lydda meets a merchant selling lizards on a stick (“Live, or dead?” “Oh, both. We got all kind of lizards and all kinds of sticks. Dead lizards, live lizards, jerkied lizards, biting lizards, accusatory lizards, short sticks, long sticks, double sticks. Whatever you want.” “Can I get a lizard without a stick?” “Get the fuck out of my store.”) After some coaxing, the shopkeep describes the gang as Mommas Thinees' Boys.
(Tariq: “Of course. Every Spire gang has to end with the word 'boys.' Even the girl gangs”)
They're a gang of eight drow, with undying surgeries and muscle grafts, who started a protection rack in Red Row. They've also expanded to the Hemlock Fruit Market and Threadneedle Square. They wear bulky robes to hide their surgical scars, and the armor they wear, and the wicked knives they carry at their backs and hips.
The grafts make them taller and more muscular than the typical drow. They all wear featureless porcelain masks and hang spice bags from their belts; the former to hide scars and the later to hide their own rotting flesh.
Mommas is an upspire drow who was disgraced and fell to Red Row. She started as a fence, but recently acquired the Undying Gang; she is rumored to be an ex-member of the Mortician's Guild. This used to be Underboss Mycroft's territory, but he got himself killed by Hellionites, and now Mommas Thinrees is moving into the power vacuum.
Following the Undying Boys
Slav and Kreth decide to tail Mommas Thinrees boys as they make their rounds. Thanks to a critical success, the gangsters have no idea they are being watched.
They travel as a team of eight, but when they get to a business, two go in and the rest wait outside. After a few hours, they start to return home, but make a sport of catching gutterkin. The undying move with surprising speed as they suddenly dart down a side alley and return with a struggling gutterkin (sometimes a goblin, or a gnome, or a snottling, and a neblin, or a street urchin) and shove them in a sack.
Their eventual destination is Mommas Thinrees House, a pub and godsmoke den of ill reputation. By the time they get there, they have half a dozen gutterkin squirming in a sack.
Checking Out Mommas Thinrees' House
The cell goes to Mommas Thinrees' House. The doorman is a massive seven foot tall figure in a hooded cloak, with two glinting eyes looking out.
Tariq: “It's probably just three gutterkin in a coat. I've seen that before.”
Slav: “You're making that up.”
The doorman confiscates obvious weapons, and moves in an inhuman manor. Slav and Abu pay it no heed, but Tariq is convinced that really is a trio of gutterkin, and the bottom one is aiming a crossbow at kneecap height under the cloak.
Inside, there are godsmoke addicts littering the floor. A drow bartender smirks at the new arrivals. Mommas Thinrees sits at a table in the back, counting coins and marking a ledger. She is a diminutive drow, with a giant sphere of hair festooned with hair sticks. She smokes a cigarette on a long holder, and has multiple incense sconces burning nearby.
Tariq is impressed: “she has type 4 hair. I say we ally with her.”
Abu Al-Nisr decides to go scouting around, and looking for ghosts. He goes off looking for a bathroom, gets “lost,” and rolls sneak. A crit! He determines that the kitchen is manned by gutterkin, and a lot of them have had undying surgery. There is a sugery table with a gutterkin-sized gurney, and a locked room containing still beating gutterkin hearts.
Abu also finds a ghost: Underboss Mycroft! He is furious with Mommas, and claims he was assassinated, not killed by Hellionites. He also claims he has proof, but when pressed for it, admits his proof is his word, which used to carry a lot of weight when he was alive. Abu promises to help Mycroft's ghost get vengeance in exchange for information:
Mommas Thinrees works for the Syndicate Sinister, just as he did. The undying heavies are a “gift” from her upspire bosses; they act as enforcers, but also serve to keep her in line. Their constant threat keeps her pliable to the Syndicate's will. The undying gang's hearts are kept somewhere upspire.
Abu is aware (along with the rest of the cell) that the Syndicate Sinister is directly controlled by the gangster/councilman Light-Through-Splintered-Glass.
Where are their Hearts?
If Thinrees doesn't have the enforcers' hearts, who does? And where? The cell concocts a plan: Kreth and Tariq will stage a “lover's quarrel” near an enforcer to distract them, then Abu will run by and shank the guy to get a blood sample for Slav to taste. Because undying don't feel pain, the enforcer doesn't even notice a little bit of light shanking.
Slav slurps up the blood sample, and can feel a heartbeat coming from upspire. She things she can follow if for perhaps a day. Lydda and Slav lead the cell through the Vermissian, traveling quickly up the spire, where they observe that Slav walks on the ceiling. Slav is unaware of this, and thinks she is walking with the rest of the PCs. Later, during a passage where water drips up to the ceiling, Slav complains about how wet her feat are, and seems perplexed that none of the rest of the cell are having any problems with this.
They exit at Steerpike Station in Amaranth and note a) it's really cold, and b) the orchard of trees twisted into geometric shapes are both impressive and creepy. They observe a group of Aelfir dilettantes lounging in scanty clothing, being massaged by shivering drow servants also wearing scanty clothing. The cell grit their teeth at the injustice and move on.
Eventually, the heartbeat leads the cell to Light-Through-Splintered-Glass' mansion.
Light-Through-Splintered-Glass' crib
Light-Through-Splintered-Glass's mansion is multiple stories, guarded by paladins, and swarming with servants.
Slav has Spot transform into six legged house cat and enter the house to go scouting. Spot finds the house to be a massive estate, crewed by masked drow servants in parkas (Tariq: “he may allow his servants to wear parkas, but I refuse to see this guy as a sympathetic villain”), until she finds a massive room filled with hundreds of cages; some cages contain still beating hearts, but most contain exotic song birds. The song birds give up a scream at the site of the cat, which causes psychological backlash on Slav (mind stress). Spot flees.
The BrasBerry Plan
The cell discusses various ways to turn the situation to something that favors the ministry, and decide they want to streal the undying hearts from Councilman Veq. However, they also want to keep Veq from realizing the theft, so Tariq and Kreth concoct the “Brasberry Plan” (a brasberry being a blueberry shoved inside the hollow of a raspberry): they will steal undying gutterkin hearts from Mommas, insert them into plain old dead drow hearts. The undying gutterkin hearts will provide a pulse, and the drow heart shell will mask the small size and misshapen appearance of the gutterkin hearts. This will cover up the theft of undying drow hearts from Light-Through-Splintered-Glass.
More Planning
Problem 1, how to get in: Kreth can just walk right in, but can't take anyone with her. Tariq suggests stealing the masks from some servants, but Lydda suggests using anastomosis to create false servant identities.
Tariq buys stolen servant masks off the black market, from a tall and severe looking drow woman (think Cruella de Vil, drow arms dealer). He takes some silver stress for his trouble. Lydda then uses Anastomosis to release knowledge that Tariq's black market masks are servants (who still have their masks) that work for Light-Through-Splintered-Glass. This is now widely believed.
Problem 2, creating decoy hearts: Abu the Carrion Priest steals drow hearts. Since his day job involves handles a lot of dead folks, this isn't a problem. Abu and Lydda then sneak into Mommas' House to steal gutterkin hearts. They accomplish this, but at the cost of some shadow stress. Lydda stuffs the undying gutterkin hearts into the stolen drow hearts. Accomplished with a critical success; they will pass as the beating undying hearts of drow for at least a week.
Problem 3, the songbirds: Lydda suggests earplugs to counter the songbird security. She makes several out of paper and wax (no silver stress required).
Problem 4, exfiltration: Lydda plans to open a vermissian exit to flee quickly. This will risk some psychological trauma for her cell-mates, but she suggests using drugs to dampen the effect.
Like Ocean's Eleven, but Weirder
Kreth leads Lydda and Slav into the mansion. While she does this, Abu summons a flock of crows and throws it against the mansions's windows and open doors to counteract the song bird singing and sow confusion.
It works, to some degree; the house servants close doors, somewhat starts shooting a scattergun at the crows, Veq's hellscreamer goats run around screaming more than usual, and some drow children (adopted/exploited by Veq in a shameless attempt to appear benevolent) scream too. It is chaos.
The inside team is lead by Krieth the Mask who sneaks them into the Heart Vault and avoids the psychological damage of the song birds. Slav goes around licking hearts until she identifies the eight hearts belonging to the Undying gang. They switch out the hearts and leave via the Vermissian Tunnels.
Lydda: “Do you want to be drugged before or after we enter the Vermissian tunnels?”
Kreth: “Before”
Slav: “After”
Lydda opens a portal to the Vermissian, and encounters a field of tentacles (Slav: “I chose wrong”). At least the tentacles are helpful, and assist in transporting Kreth's drugged form, crowd surfing style.
Regouping
Abu and Tariq meet up with Lydda, Kreth, and Slav at the Rut & Wallow. They discuss how best to use their new wealth of undying hearts, and come up with the following plan:
They give half their hearts to their Ministry handler (whom the players name Tio Silencio, in reference to their handler in the Eclipse Phase game). They'll give a couple hearts to Mommas as proof, and keep two for themselves. They then pressure Mommas into working for the Ministry.
They meet with Tio Silencio, who accepts the four hearts and agrees to send another cell to Red Row to monitor and instruct Mommas. The coterie keeps two hearts to use for future favors/bartering.
Meeting Mommas Thinrees
The cell goes to Mommas Place in the Red Row. Tariq requests an audience with the crime lord, and is granted one. He opens up with the virtues of the resistance, but Mommas cuts him off; she has little patience for crackpot revolutionaries. She keeps her public goodwill confined to orphanages and food banks and not outright rebellion.
Deciding this is going no where, Tariq simply hands her a pair of beating hearts. She looks skeptical as he explains that these belong to her undying enforcers and jailors. Mommas explains that she has even less patience for two-bit charlatans, and stabs one of the hearts to express her disdain.
One of the undying immediately falls over. After a pause, Mommas tells Tariq that he has her attention. She listens to Tariqs proposal for alliance with ministry, and requests time to consider it.
The coterie agrees, and spends the rest of the day planning for Mommas to betray them at tomorrow's meeting. They also meet up with the second ministry cell, which consists of a couple knights, an idol, a hellionite priest, and a midwife; they look ready for violence.
The next morning, Abu and Kreith sneak in the back door. The rest enter the front with a full compliment of weapons (the cloaked doorman no longer tries to stop them). The Ministry goon squad also accompanies them inside.
The godsmoke den is largely empty at this early hour. Tariq and Lydda sit down at a large table with Mommas. Lydda shares out spider tacos to everyone from a cheese cloth bag. Mommas demands support and protection (since the Syndicate Sinister will likely have reprisals) and a degree of autonomy. Tariq agrees, just relieved that she isn't trying to kill/betray them. They work out details, and Tariq Al-Nisr adds Mommas Thinrees as a new street level bond.
In the back, Abu witnesses some gutterkin being beaten for stealing undying gutterkin hearts, but decides to remain silent, since 1) he's sneaking, and 2) he doens't actually want Mommas to know what the ministry cell stole the hearts from her.
As the meeting concludes, Mommas Thinrees mentions in passing that she has a meeting with an exorcist because her business house is apparently haunted. Later, Tariq asks Abu about this, and Abu confims that Underboss Mycroft's ghost is, in fact, really pissed about this turn of events.

!!! New Player
A new player joins the group, adding Kreth to the party (a Masked).
Stress Relief – is discussed but enough of the coterie is worried about Lower Perch that they opt to continue operations against to Professor Vex.
Professor Vex is revealed to be a member of the Cult of Spire Ascendent, who wants to electrocute sections of the Spire to revitalize and awaken it as a living entity, which means there is someone or someones that would continue her work.
Remove Professor Vex
Abu Al-Nisr and Fortunate Al-Nisr stake out Professor Vex's factory building – they wait and watch, then recognize a trio of student workers leave including Ezmer a young, drow female that Vex dotes on because she's brilliant.
Abu picks an Ivory Row property for his ambush. It is choked with topiary.
Ezmer runs away when the first of her companions, a male human, is strung up in the topiary.
Abu drops a kind looking spider gargoyle into their path forcing them deeper into the topiary where Ezmer is captured.
Ezmer is interrogated by the brothers – she reveals that Professor Vex's doesn't know who the coterie members are. Her drow students get exempted from the durance.
Department of Applied Galvanics
Dean is senile and hanging on by luck and seniority
Five professors, all humans, are attempting to replace the dean:
Bosst – Galvanic Defenses
Mandalite – Civilian Galvanic Applications (central lighting). Practical uses for every day life rather than weapons.
Loque – History of Lightning – collecting texts of lightning gods to found her own religion. Example: Ben of Franklin and his Kite of Galvanic Attraction.. Example 2 (not galvanics): Cult of Garrick, a human industrialist who replaced his body parts with mechanical parts.
Thule – Galvanics “therapy”
Vex – Weather Galvanics
Lyddia applies investigation and academia to divert some of Professor Vex's student factory workers into abandoning Vex's team for Professor Thule.
Slav and Kreth and Therratix work together to assassinate Professor Vex in her campus office. They successfully divert an electrical experiment on display output into her desk and chair. While in the office they investigate a device that is copying texts to find that the device is interpreting and copying any text given to it; it is currently working thru a stack of texts by her rivals for Dean of Applied Galvanics.
The assassination fails to kill her but it does damage her reputation and destroy her copying machine.
The Al-Nisr Brothers interrogate Ezmer and decide she is perfect to black mail into being an asset. They are informed by Slav's pet spider about that section of the coterie's operations.
Slav, Kreth, and Therratix follow a “bad luck” spell's back trail out of Professor Vex's office to a gambling section of the Silver Quarter, in particular a casino named the Mermaid.
Ezmer is stashed in a broom closet in the Rut & Wallow Bar. Quent the owner notes which broom closet and puts up a sign that announces, “Beware of Hynea! Don't open!”
The Assassination
The brothers arrange a ransom note to Professor Vex for Ezmer. “Come to Lower Perch's Honeymoon Suite at Thumb's. Come alone. Bring a bag of silver and your research notes.”
Professor Vex arrives with her three spider pack enforcers, two teams of student workers, and her trio of student security.
Kreth, Lyddia, and Therratix are in the suite with Ezmer. The rest of the coterie wait outside and nearby to cut the cords that suspend the suite.
A duo of student workers enter the suite to scope it out before the professor enters. They exit once Therratix ensures them that Ezmer is safe and on the premises.
The killing begins: Abu's crossbow bolt hits Vex in the heart; her corpse tumbles from the cat walk. The campus security team fires a rescue line at Vex that ropes her corpose and slams it with horrible noise against the spire. A student fires a Galvanic arquebus that misfires and blows up in his hands. A blackspire bomb is thrown and misses, plunging into the structures that hang far below.
Lyddia bravely rescues the injured Slav by plunging them both into the Vermissian Tunnels via the Back Door. Slav keeps her eyes squeezed shut.
Abu and Fortunate fight a pair of cultists armed with spider back packs. One is spared the horror of impact when she falls off a catwalk and is killed by the lite black spire bomb stuck to her hand. Fortunate takes wounds clambering up onto a catwalk with more victims... cultists. Abu plunges his saber into a cultist then pushes his corpse off the blade and into the void.
Therratix's claws professionally cut a cultist's head off at the shoulders. She throws the severed head at other combatants.
Kreth calmly leaves the battle by doning another mask and walking away.
Slav and Kreth work on Ezmer hoping to convert her to the cause leveraging her involvement to Destroy Perch as blackmail.
Therratix researches the coterie's notes on the Cult of Intelligence and Department of Applied Galvanics, which are both active in the Hive Prison and both tied back into the Gwynn-Enfer university.
The Discussion: Who do we want to tackle next in the Hive Prison
Investigate the Cult of Intelligence – Kreth uncovers Councilman Drynn, the only human member, is also the Primary Communications Node of the Cult of Intelligence.
Prof Bosst – Galvanic Defenses
Prof Thule – Galvanics “therapy”
Prof Loque - History of Lightning – collecting texts of lightning gods to found her own religion. Example: Ben of Franklin and his Kite of Galvanic Attraction.. Example 2 (not galvanics): Cult of Garrick, a human industrialist who replaced his body parts with mechanical parts.
Prof Mandalite – Civilian Galvanic Applications (central lighting). Practical uses for every day life rather than weapons.
Prof Xavier – No crystal implant. Working on crystal thinking machine.
Convince Thule and/or Galvanics that Cult of Intelligence members are a good experimentation stock. Lyddia uncovers that the humans mined into Protocoticoss colonies to gain hi-tech crystals which they built a steam punk empire off of. Humans can only really use the instantaneous communications of said crystals by implanting said crystals in human, elf or drow brains. An experiment line would involve running varying currents through those crystals to attempt instantaneous communications... Cultists have clicks that are at odds with each other. The crystals act as a vast library rather than mind control.
Therratix shares this information slyly with Professor Thule. Kreth and others convince Thule that experimenting on crystal heads is ethical.
Make Professor Mandalite the new dean (or at least the current dean's executor) of Galvanics. Make it so he needs the support of the other three professors and vice versa.
!!!What are our day jobs again?
To refresh, everyone describes some day-in-the-life scene for their characters.
Abu ~Al-Nisr, the Carrion Priest, spends his day chatting with corpses and transporting corpses for the Guard
Therratix, the Midwife, serves as secretary to [[Warden Wind-Before-Dawn]] while doing some midwifery on the side.
Slav Icktus, the Blood Witch, works a tiring shift as a waitress at [[The Rut & Wallow]]
“Fortunate” Tamar Al-Nisr, the Bound, always has cigarettes and beer thanks to the small gods. And he spends the day on rooftops, drinking and smoking and staring moodily at the horizon.
Lyddia Jath, the Vermissian Sage, is now a member of the guard. She does paperwork and builds her own criminal coterie of City Guard members.
//Tariq fades into the background noise, as he is without a player today.//
!!!Exciting News!
The ministry cell learns that there's a bunch of weird and threatening things going on.
Lyddia finds records that twelve prisoners have escaped from the Polyphecon, which is unusual.
Tamar hears news that Lower [[Perch]] was struck by lightning. Repeatedly. At regular, three second intervals. Burning sections were cut loose to save other sections. The cell takes issue with this, since Perch is where they live.
Skav Icktus hears stories of a demonic incursion in Pilgrim's row. It seems to have emanated from a Vermissian station, and several blocks have been evacuated.
Finally, through ministry contacts, the cell learns about a new gang appearing in Red Row. It's a cadre of 12 undying drow, all large and violent, learning on businesses for protection money. They run a circuit from Red Row to the Hemlock Fruit Market.
!!!Investigating the Lightning Situation
While undying gangsters and subway demons are problems, the first priority for the cell is keeping Perch from getting blasted off the side of Spire by lightning.
Fortunate Tamar investigates the lightning strikes on Lower Perch. He finds a series of six foot iron spikes, with melted tips of brass and glass, embedded in the outer wall of Spire. The spikes are now very brittle due to the super heating via lightning. Tamar recovers several feet from one of the spikes, and determines that it is hollow except for a length of copper wire inside.
Lyddia Jath investigates the recovered spike, and part of the spike uses devices associated with Gywnn-Enforr. The cell agrees that this looks a lot like the [[Department of Applied Galvanics]] is up to something..
Tamar cuts off several more spike tips and sells them to an [[Ivory Row]] junk dealer hoping that these items get found by the Gywwn-Enforr scientists. He stakes out the shop. Not much comes of it, however.
Lyddia takes a more direct route, and wanders the Gywnn-Enforr campus looking for people to question. She uses her new Everbody Is Guilty of Something trick on some janitorial staff, and finds that Jenny Gierson is guilty of petty theft, arson, and stabbery. Lyddia uses this knowledge to lean on Jenny for information from the inside, and Jenny spills what she knows. She's done some clean up in the weapons research labs, and recognizes the spike designs as belonging to [[Professor Vex]]. Vex is upset that her grant was rejected, and was talking about doing something to revitalize the research.
!!!Tailing Professor Vex
Tamar and Slav follow the professor, but they get spotted by a trio of campus security (two humans and a drow). Tamar and Slav flee, and are astonished at how persistent and effective the campus security are at chasing them; they barely escape.
Tamar later sees the drow from campus security putting up signs offering a 500-sten reward for the "Terrible ~Anti-Intellectual Acrobat" with a sketch of Tamar's "burner" mask from last night. Tamar discards that mask.
Slav tries tailing the professor again, this time with Abu's help. The two notice that Vex is now accompanied by a trio of large, buklky guards wearing heavy backpacks, lots of straps and buckles, and weird breather tubes attached to their masks. Vex goes to [[Little Whitecross]], a human district between [[Ivory Row]] and Gywnn-Enforr. Her house is large, if worn down, and filled with human and drow students. Slav and Abu watch the place, and observe the students assembling even more spikes in a fit of industry. The operation looks larger than the last one, in terms of spikes needed. They count a total of a dozen students, and a half-dozen bulky guards with heavy backpacks. There is also an old woman with a blind dog who brings people snacks.
!!!Who are these backpack guys?
Lyddia and Slav look into the weird backpack guys, and ID them as members of the Cult of Garrick - a fringe religion with a small presence in the factories and in the human University. A subset of the cult wear the backpack rigs, which are filled with devices. Garrick cultists are known for being tough, mechanically skilled, and weird.
!!!Spying on Vex's house
Slav sends her spider familiar inside the house to spy, but it is quickly chased off by a massive hound (well, "massive" according to the spider). It's not a complete loss; the spider does come back with: “The next test will be in Perch. It will be larger. And its important to remove The Perch from the Spire. Within the week.”
Abu and Tamar press for an immediate attack, and the others agree. Four of the band infiltrate the building, with only Fortunate Tamar failing; he is spotted, chased, and captured by the trio of campus security guards for yesterday (moderate shadow fallout).
The remaining ministers infiltrate then house, seeing a large parlor ringed by a mezzanine level. They decide to attack from stealth on the mezzanine, picking off as many as possible until the defenders run upstairs to engage of flee. However, the plan continues to slide south when the opening attacks instead result in the mezzanine partially collapsing, dropping several ministers into the lower floor among the students.
Lyddia decides the best plan is chutzpah, and simply strolls into the manufacturing area and back out with a single iron spike over her shoulder. She continues walking away from the professors house, and disappears into the night.
Abu summons a murder of crows to spead confusion and cover his and Therratrix' escapes. Slav simply goes full blood witch, and levitates off into the night while screeching curses in dead languages; none of the students are willing to give chase.
!!!Lockup
Tamar finds himself in campus security jail. Even with a different "burner mask," campus security recognized his silhouette and profile. He identifies the trio of security as [[Johnny Mar]], a muscle-bound human, [[Smurgeon]] a human sharpshooter, and [[Hidari Nivrasod]] their drow girl friday. Tamar patiently waits until the next evening to escape, using simple lockpicking skills to open the cell. He doesn't realize that Hidari is still at her desk watching him escape, but she just notes his escape in a log book as he walks through the front office. Tamar later notices that his wanted posters describe as an: //Acrobat, Mysterious Escaper, Arsonist, Petty Stabbist, and ~Anti-Intellectual.//
!!!More Fallout
Abu seeks to stalk and murder a Garrick Cult member, but it goes very poorly. More moderate fallout!
Unbeknownst to Abu, a trio of the backpack cultists trail him back to the Rut & Wallow,
!!!Defending the Hideout
So, later on, Abu is in the Rut & Wallow with the rest of his coterie, some corrupt City Guard, various employees, and other patrons (including [[Ickbad Walzon]], another Bound and Fortunate Tamar's most hated rival).
("Why do you hate that guy?" "Once, after a game of darts, he said 'more like ~UN-Fortunate Tamar, amirite?' and everyone laughed. How they laughed. I will never forgive him.")
Suddenly, a trio of armored cultists burst in the door! And, from their heavy backpacks, extend four gimble-limbed spider legs, which allow them to scurry over walls, ceiling, and across tables. The ministry cell leaps to the attack, and Abu declares several useful features for the pub (did you know it has a ratty old chandelier? or bathrooms?). The cultists are skilled fighters, heavily armed and armored, but they go down without inflicting any casualties.
The cell recovers three backpacks, which act as weapons, armor, and climbing equipment. However, they only work for Garrik cultists. They also recover three gas masks, which work for anyone. It looks like the human cultists were using the breather masks because they weren't used to breathing outside of the noxious environment of the factories.
!!!Let's try this again
Feeling emboldened by their victory over the Cult of Garrik, the PCs decide to try messing with Vex some more.
They decide to stake out Lower Perch to find where Professor Vex's second Lightning Call operation will take place. They find it around the Great Pipe, where two of the Lightning Callers are already placed, and 12 more chalk marked locations are found.
The cell tries to set an ambush, but they tip their hand while staking out the sites and the students abort the mission and avoid them. The ministers do, however, recover four spikes.
Later, a recon of Professor Vex's mansion shows everyone is still there, but now the students are all armed, traps and noise makers are placed at all entrances, and anti-Blood Magic sigils have been placed around the windows. Everyone is on high alert. Slav is relieved to notice that the blood magic sigils are powerless tripe someone found in a book, but she's impressed that they tried. ("I think that's actually a ward against a Plür Spitting Curse, but, you know, A for effort.")
!!!End of session
Everyone gets a low advance

An undying member of the Spire high council, and the leader of the [[Syndicate Sinister]].
In competition with [[Wicked Mr. Alas]] to be the top crime lord in the city.
A drow's drow, she majored in drow studies at university (which has limited her guard career somewhat) and maintains a fashionable number of spouses. She is professional and competent, and devoted to her career.
The PCs convinced her that an affair with a Gywwn-Enforr professor was putting her career at risk, and helped her quietly call things off. Ever since, she has been in their debt.
[[Session Summaries]] [[People]] [[Locations]] [[Groups]] [[Other Stuff]]
!!!Further antics at the hive
Tariq is worried about the ministry actions coming back on [[Quint]], the proprietor of [[The Rut & Wallow]], so Lyddia drafts up paperwork to get Quint's family listed as "confidential informants." This way, there aren't so many questions as to why they keep being near City Guard scandals.
Abu Al-Nisr meets with [[Warden Wind-Before-Dawn]], to take his corpse cart into the prison proper (previously he hadn't been allowed further in than the infirmary). The Warden agrees, but wants Abu to tell him about Desang - Abu isn't familiar with theater stuff, so he just makes things up. When meeting with the Warden's secretary, [[Pinioned-Limbs-in-Shadow]], Abu becomes convinced that the secretary actually runs the prison, while the Warden is pursuing weird theater projects.
!!!Hey! I can talk to ghosts now!
Abu is now a ghost speaker, and starts using his talents to help the guard solve crimes (on occasion). Sometimes it's just good conversation.
!!!Those wacky demonologists
Later, while corpse carting in the prison, he tries to get information on the demonologists, and confirms that most of the genuine demonologists in [[The Hive]] have worked for one of either [[Lord Veq Light-Through-Splintered-Glass]] or [[Wicked Mr. Alas]]. He finds that Mr. Alas was using demonologists to curse rich land owners so he could buy their property on the cheap. Abu even gets some names. Some of his information came from ghosts.
!!!Operation "replace the warden's sectary"
After Abu's meeting with the warden, they think he could be controlled and manipulated. They decide that the best place is to install a new secretary, as his current one is a bit too competent.
They look for exploitable secrets relating to Pinioned-Limbs-in-Shadow, and find that she's a frequent brothel visitor, and a regular at [[The Cage]]. The cell decides that assassinating her at the brothel is a good idea.
The cell decides that they want to set up the [[Cult of the Intelligence]] as patsies, especially some of the ones in the Sunlight Collective. Fortunate Tamar shops resale stores and finds some appropriately moody looking crystals to serve as planted evidence. Slav Icktus uses blood magic to identify Intelligence-infected bohemians, and Tariq and Fortunate Tamar set to work drugging and kidnapping them.
!!!Infiltrating a brothel
The ~PCs bribe the brothel staff (using funds from the stolen payroll) and Tariq takes the prostitutes place for Pinioned-Limbs-in-Shadow's next visit. Other prostitutes warn him that she likes to submerge drow in ice water, and they've taken to using an insulating grease, so Tariq follows their lead. Fortunate Tamar brings the drugged bohemians in through the roof, and stores them in a pantry closet.
When Pinioned-Limbs-in-Shadow visits the brothel visits the brothel later that night, she is none the wiser.
Which is how Tariq finds himself shivering in a cold water tub with an aelfir secretary straddling him. When he decides her guard is down, he shouts and stabs her with a drugged dagger, and... finds she's lethally competent in a fight. Therratrix, covered in spider carapace and spines, bursts into the room, and joins the fight. Pinioned-Limbs-in-Shadow puts up a surprisingly solid defense, considering that's naked and fighting a multilimbed spider monster and knife wielding maniac at the same time.
Then Abu shoots her with a crossbow, killing her.
The rest of the cell manages crowd control during the fight, and then cleans up the murder scene: removing evidence linked to them, and planting evidence linked to the Cult of Intelligence (Tamar's moody crystals and the drugged bohemians). Lyddia also executes the bohemians, lest their memories interfere with the frame up. The ministry cell then flees into the crowded cities of Middle City.
!!!New Secretary Day
Theratrix visits the warden when he finds out about the death of his secretary. She intends to influence his choice of replacement, but through a series of absurdely good die roles, becomes the new Secretary herself.
!!!End of session
Everyone gets a low advance, since they certainly changed Pinioned-Limbs-in-Shadow's life, her murder doesn't really affect much of anyone else.
!!!Session 2 – Hijacking a payroll!
Therratrix is laying low this session, clearing her stress tracks. (also, her player couldn't make it today)
!!! Framing Up the Roaring Boys
Tariq travels to the garden district, and manages to buy enough local clothing to cobble together four sets of Roaring Boys gang colors. With those, everyone should be able to impersonate a Garden District ganger. Some spying and research leads the cell to the [[Roaring Boys]] safe house, which honestly wasn't that hard to find. Fortunate Tamar sneaks in and plants [[Quartermaster Baub]]'s debt record there, so it will look like the Roaring Boys are blackmailing Baub.
!!! Finding a payroll caravan
Next, the cell needs a payroll shipment bound for downspire, which will travel from the hive through Roading Boys territory in the leach canals. After being stymied with trying to find an existing payroll route, they decide to make their own luck. Lyddia Jath gets a job as a clerk at the Hive, and uses her academic skills to start forging documents. She alters the planned route for the next payroll shipment.
Lyddia also snags herself a shrike pistol, because it might be useful to have later. Guns are always useful.
!!! Ambush!
The ministry cell returns to the Garden District to stake out the new payroll route. They set their ambush point on a bridge over the leech canal, and hide in wait for the barge carrying the payroll.
The payroll barge has eight people on it: four of them have decent armor, and four have ill fitting armor and obviously less discipline. The four guards in better armor are armed with clubs, plus one of them has a halberd, and one of them has a gun. The four in ill fitting armor look unarmed. The ~PCs decide this must be four career guards, with four durance guards brought along for heavy lifting. The barge also has multiple crates.
The barge runs into some ropes that the ~PCs tied just below the water's surface, and comes to a sudden halt. Several PC's open fire with guns (or weird magic, in the blood witch's case), while Tamar runs nimbly across the ropes to engage in melee ("I'm a Bound! I love ropes!").
Tariq shoots the gun-toting guard leader with his pistol, and Lyddia does the same, dropping him. Tamar cuts down the halberd bearing guard. Slav Icktus leans over the bridge and sprays blood from her eyeballs, dowsing the barge near Tamar. A couple durance drow grab a ladder and lean it on the bridge, and Tariq shoots one of them. A guard goes for his fallen mate's pistol, and gets shot by Lyddia for his troubles ("this new shrike pistol is great!"). One of the durance guards decides to swim for it, and Tamar noticed that the poor guy is covered in leeches. Then he cuts down the last career guard with his godknife.
The remaining durance guards surrender, plainly terrified. Tamar threatens them, "Don't tell anyone the Roaring Boys did this! Or else!" but takes some shadow stress in the process ("Why did I take shadow stress? I was wearing a mask! Is the guy going to remember my eyebrows?").
The ministry cell escapes with the stolen payroll, plus a guard's pistol, and their lives. All four durers are left alive, though one is coated in leeches. The durers are told they can help themselves to the stens in the dead guard's pockets, which turns out to be a decent sum; the guards had already skimmed some cash from the payroll.
Lyddia notes the stolen payroll as a bond. If they use the cash to bribe someone or buy something, they can roll dice against the stolen loot bond.
!!! Back at the Hive
Returning to the hive, the Lyddia finds the staff agitated. Several prisoners were found dead, with crystals jammed in their skulls. A group of visiting professors are denying involvements. Some officers are busy interrogating the durers from the payroll run, which seems to involve a lot of blunt impact and screaming. Lyddia feels sort of bad about this.
Tariq drops by Ziminar Langley's office, on the pretense that he's handing out drink coupons from [[The Rut & Wallow]] to the guard HR office, and tells her that he overheard the [[Roaring Boys]] bragging about the payroll heist, and how they got [[Quartermaster Baub]] to help them set it up.
!!! Wait, what's this about crystalheads?
Lyddia gets curious about the dead prisoners, and looks into the professors being blamed for it. The [[Department of Applied Galvanics]] has been experimenting on prisoners, for research into warfare, brainwashing, and close quarter combat. However, none of what they are doing actually involves crystals.
She takes a trip to the Vermissian Vault, to research the crystals. It turns out that human researchers found a giant crystal brain buried in their homeland; some of them like to break off chunks and implant them into their brains to form a sort of weird group mind. These people are called the [[Cult of the Intelligence]], and it's not clear what they're doing at the prison. She finds reference to the name [[Tristan Avanod]], an ex-student from [[Gywnn-Enforr]] who travels in bohemian circles, trying to recruit people into the intelligence cult.
Slav Icktus also looks for mysterious visitors to the prison, using creepier blood-magic methods, and notes that two major criminal groups have been trying to get people out: the [[Syndicate Sinister]] and the [[Wicked Mr. Alas]]. It seems the two are rival crime lords, and both have a number of enforcers locked up on charges of demonology. Slav suspects that they've both been using trumped up demonology charges to get each other's enforcers off the field. Fortunate Tamar notes that it's something of an open secret that the Syndicate Sinister is controlled by Councilman [[Light-Through-Splintered-Glass|Lord Veq Light-Through-Splintered-Glass]], so that's bad news.
Abu looks into crystal-headed bohemians, which tracks back to the [[Sunlight Collective]] of [[Ivory Row]], which is in Mr. Alas' territory. The cell speculates for a while on what all of this means.
!!! Time to make a murder board
The ministry cell spends some time pinning little pieces of paper to a wall in the back room of the Rut & Wallow, along with lots of red string connecting pictures together. The eventually conclude that there are four factions/interests trying to control the Hive's prison ("the Polyphecon"). These are:
* The Wicked Mr Alas: a crime lord who wants to save or comfort his own troops who have been imprisoned, and to gain intelligence from his enemies.
* The Syndicate Sinister: same goals as Mr. Alas (controlled by Councilman ~Light-Through-Splintered-Glass)
* Cult of the Intelligence: goals unclear
* Gywnn-Enforr Department of Applied Galvanics: they just want to experiment on prisoners with electricity.
This is in addition to the city guard, who just want to do their jobs and skim some stens for themselves.
As a side-note, the players wonder what the giant sphere of eyes at the center of the Polyphecon is. It's a giant fungal tree covered in eyes, that screams whenever prisoners try to escape. And sometimes when they aren't escaping. Once it screamed for a month straight, and no one knows why.
!!! Approaching Mr. Alas
The cell travels up the Spire (via Perch) to visit Ivory Row. They want to investigate both Mr. Alas and the Sunlight Collective.
What the cell already knows:
Ivory Row is run by three landlords. Mr. Alas is one, along with [[Lady Thorns on Silk]], an aelfir heiress, known for cruelty. Also, a patron to at least one Bloodwitch. Her pet blood witch: a drow noble woman who conspired with the high elves, but was revealed as a Bloodwitch during high society party. The third landlord is [[Archbishop Wynn]], a human cleric, who worships the aelfir gods. He refuses life extending surgeries. Rumor has it he is buying up land to build monuments to the aelfir gods.
The dilapidated mansions are also home to [[The Hidden]]: drow squatters hiding in the empty spaces. They live quietly and steal from the estates nearby. The Sunlight Collective is a disorganized group of bohemians who like partying and art and the occult. They throw their parties on the rooftops in Ivory Row.
Tamar spies on a bohemian party before just deciding to crash the party and enjoy himself. There, he meets [[Itz'bin]], a retainer of Mr. Alas. He still dresses as one of the Hidden, but with items of wealth displayed openly, including an illegal rapier and parrying blade. Tamar suspects that Itz'bin isn't merely a retainer, but one of Alas' lieutenants, and likely formidable. He makes no progress trying to gather information from the man.
Lyddia Jath has better luck talking to the bohemians, perhaps due to her academic background. Alas sells narcotics to the collective, and lets them party in his domain. However, he's hostile to those bohemians who join cults (including the Intelligence Cult), and drives them out of his territory. Sometimes he simply murders trespassing cultists. His primary hatchet man is an enormous aelfir named [[Gentle-On-Blinded-Orbs]], who has been augmented by muscle surgery, is blind, and sees via enhanced hearing.
Slav asks around with local cultist circles to see if Mr. Alas has any occult interests. She finds out that he's very interested in the gods and acquiring relics of said gods. He believes that all of the gods have failed him and he resents them, so he collects relics and defiles them. He has dealings with the various occultists, but treats them as mercenary weapons, not as a group he would join. Still, working for him as an occultist can be good money.
Tariq has the high society domain, and looks into how to contact Wicked Mr Alas: he's reclusive, so you start with one of his lieutenants, and work with them to get an audience. Very powerful people can jump that line, but the ~PCs are not particularly powerful people.
Comparing notes, the ~PCs think that Alas would be interested in the Slav and Lyddia (for their occult knowledge), hostile to Abu and Tamar (for their religious faiths), and neutral to the others. He wants to be the Godfather of the spire, and they might be able to get favors for the ministry if they help his ambitions.
!!! A vague plan for next session and the near future
After a brief round of marry-fuck-or-kill, the ~PCs decide that:
The guard has the most potential for being a positive force for the drow, and should be cultivated as a possible Ministry asset.
Mr. Alas is a bad man, but at least he's a drow, and not necessarily hostile to the revolution, and could be an ally.
The department of Applied Galvanics seems kind of harmless, and might be viable allies.
Councilman ~Light-Through-Splintered-Glass is an aelfir, and the cell would be happy destroying him.
The Cult of the Intelligence creeps everyone out, so the cell would like to destroy them.
Next session, they plan to meet Mr Itz'bin and make nice with Wicked Mr Alas.
Everyone gets a medium advance, on account of actually removing the corruption in the Widows and Orphans fund, which noticeably improves the lives of the fund's recipients. (even if it's off camera)
The middle part of spire, home to [[The Hive]] and [[Gywwn-Enforr]] and bordering on [[Perch]].
[[The Cage]], a bordello, can also be found here.
Below it is the Garden District, and above it is Ivory Row.

Session Summary 10/07/2018•Mr White, now a Ministry resource/employee, is under threat of assassination from the Mortician's. So, the coterie thinks thru some options to get that resolved, coming up with putting Mr White thru Undead surgery... because by law executions and death sentence's in Spire have no weight if the individual is already dead... and by definition Undead surgery is considered “death”.•Mr White is escorted to Heaven (a level of the Spire) by Lyddia Jath via the Vermissian Tunnels. They encounter weirdness along the way, including a drow violinist who claims that his constant violin playing is keeping Spire from collapsing.•The rest of the coterie (Slav, Abu, and Toriq) travel to Heaven separately where they arrange the Undead Surgery thru the licensed practice of the Mortician's.•Abu gets a lead on Doctor Ickabod Salard who lives in a war zone between fighting factions of Bee Druids, Blood Witches and Cats.•Doctor Salard turns out to be an elder drow whose enthusiasm verges on senility. He agrees to perform the surgery immediately, well, as soon as his assistant Monique says he's done with the current patient.•The surgery is a success, though some of his organs have been replaced by Rust Spiders.•The next subject is the Blind Oracle that is calling shots via visions for the Solar Guard's Paladins.•Najlkae Gleefully Greets the Murmuration ritually blinded herself at 15 years old (she's now 100 years old) during her stint with a cult of the old gods. Nothing came of that, she later joined the Solar Church who was able to deliver on the “powers”. Her visions now come true. And she went thru Undying Surgery.•Four questions:•Where is she? She's lives in the Solar District's Solar Basilica in an estate that has Solar Clerics, magical defenses, mundane defenses, and servants.•Who has the greatest influence over her? She greatly admires one of the Councilman, Page 14 of 16
Minnie the Seedling. His approval influences her decisions. She also has a bevy of masked retainers that manager her day to day life, because she's blind; they are dedicatedto her. Mr Collins, Mrs Dirty Shire, and Mr Arconstrik.•Whose in charge of her bacchanals? The church is divided into four groups. The Father Summer and Sister Spring are the most powerful and popular. Sister Spring is responsible for the celebrations; one priestess sponsored by Najlkae takes care of Najlkae's bacchanals. Mary Hears the Secrets of the Sting.•Who is Mary's lover or husband? Sexless marriage to an Undying to an High Elf Lord. She does maintain a sex life with a cadre of gnoll refugees living/imprisoned on her estate.•Toriq runs an investigation using his power to determine that Najlkae is allied to the resistance unwittingly. She unwittingly spends a lot of money that flows to the Ministry coffers. And the drag nets that having been taking out Ministry people is also taking out anti-Ministry persons.•The coterie decides to start with the bacchanals. Slav is able to pass herself off a member of the Solar Church and get invited to the upcoming bacchanals. She and Toriq attend as a couple.•They find that bacchanal is “gnoll technology” fueled by “elf sex magic”. Basically, gnoll demon magic is collecting the elf sex magic.•Slav requests a “goblet of her blood” which Toriq delivers via “sex game”. From this she determines why Secrets of the Sting is interested in gnoll culture.

Proprietor of [[The Rut & Wallow]].
He's a tough old lump who knows which questions he doesn't want answers to.
1. Skills
Spire uses Domain+Skill, and Reign uses Stat+Skill. There's no room for domains in Reign, unless I treat them as Skills, which would work fine. That gives me 18 skills, which is only 3 per stat. If I split each Spire skill and domain into two, that gives me 36 skills, which is closer to the granularity that Reign looks for.
Compel - Intimidate, Persuade
Deceive - Lie, Disguise
Fight - Melee Combat, Ranged Combat
Fix - Medicine, Repair
Investigate - Scrutinize, Notice
Pursue - Chase, Track
Resist - Endurance, Willpower
Sneak - Stealth, Smuggling
Steal - Theft, Traps & Locks
Academia - Education (domain), Bureaucracy
Crime - Streetwise, Career Criminal (some sort of "profession: crime" skill)
Commerce - Haggling, Business
High Society - Style & Class, Art
Low Society - Expert (skill), Survival
Occult - Occult Magic, Dark Secrets
Order - Law, Tactics & Strategy
Religion - Divine Magic, Theology
Technology - Retroengineering, Guild Politics
2. One roll character creation
The one-roll tables should reflect various backgrounds. Probably one column for each domain, maybe.
Option 1. Base life paths on durances.
There are 17 durances: Acolyte, Agent, Builder, Dealer, Duellist, Enlisted, Guard, Human Emissary, Hunter, Information Broker, Killer, Laborer, Occultist, Personal Assistant, Pet, Sage, Spy
There are 9 non-durances: Kept a low profile in Derelictus, Fought to protect your community, Led a doomed uprising, Joined a cult or two, Toughed it out in Red Row, Fell in with a gang of thieves, Spent your time in jail, Hid in plain sight, Helped the Ministry wage their war
Total: 26
Option 2: Base life paths on classes and extra advaces
There are 11 classes: Azurite, Bound, Carrior-Priest, Firebrand, Idol, Knight, Lajhan, Masked, Midwife, Vermissian Sage, and Blood Witch
There are 11 extra advances: City Guard, Chosen of the Hungry Deep, Enlisted, Faithful of King Teeth, Greymanor Investigator, Hellionite, Luck-Priest of Stolz, Minister, Solar Devotee, Vigilite, Vyskant
There are 7 new gods that grant advances: Ishtuk, Luxulyan, Apash, The Many, Miah, Garrack, the Masked God
There are 3 black magic advances: Grangou, Deep Apiarist, Demonologist
There are 3 codex of the deep spire advances: Katakos Delver, Dust Warden, Maiden of the Mother of Shadows
There is 1 other advance: the Corpsefruit Dealer
Total: 36
Option 3: Base life paths on the districts/factions of Spire
4 in Academia: The Benevolent Order of Wisdom and Discovery, Brazacott Technical Institute, The High Elven University of Divine Magic, The Academy of Gywnn-Enforr
3 in Commerce: The North Docks, The Sky Docks, The Blue Port
1 in Crime: Red Row
3 in High Society: Amaranth, Ivory Row, Silver Quarter
4 in Low Society: Derelictus, Perch, The Garden District, The Works
5 in Occult: The Vermissian, The Heart, The Guild of Morticians, The Necropolis, The Midwives
3 in Order: City Guard, Allied Defense HQ, the Council
6 in Religion: The Cathedral of Our Glorious Lady, The Ministry of Our Hidden Mistress, The Sect of Our Crimson Vigil, Pilgrim's Walk, The Solar Basilica, New Heavan
0 in Technology: /(though Gywnn-Enforr and the Works could both be considered Technology/
Total: 28, or 29 if I treat the Guild of Morticians and the Necropolis as separate.
I like option 3 the best. I can make three tables, for generating one-roll upspire drow, one-roll midspire drow, and one-roll downspire drow.
* Upspire drow: The High Elven University of Divine Magic, The Sky Docks, Silver Quarter, Amaranth, The Guild of Morticians & The Necropolis, The Council, The Solar Basilica, New Heaven, plus something for high-class crime and something for technology (maybe grimaldi's tower? the inverted telescope? the obsidian orrery?)
* Midspire drow: Brazacott Technical Institute, Ivory Row, Perch, The Garden District, The Midwives, The City Guard, The Cathedral of Our Glorious Lady, The Academy of Gywnn-Enforr, plus something involving commerce, and something involving crime. Maybe use the Feather Island location from the map?
* Downspire drow: The Benevolent Order of Wisdom and Discovery, The Blue Port, The North Docks, Red Row, The Works, Derelictus, The Heart, The Allied Defense HQ, Pilgrim's Walk, The Vermissian
I might move the Vermissian to midspire and Brazacott to downspire. It balances a bit better, but I seems like the "nexus" or whatever for the vermissian would be near the heart.
3. Schools of magic
Occult Magic
* Blood Witchcraft
* Demonology
* Idolatry
* Masks
* Midwifery
* Vermissian Lore
Divine Magic:
* Solar Worship
* Lajhan
* Ministers
* Vigilites
* Azurites
* Charnalites
* The Small Gods
* Luck Priests of Stolz
* Hellionites
* Hungry Deep
* Ghouls of King Teeth
4. Martial styles
* Knightly Orders
* Enlisted Training
* Guard Training
5. Other esoteric disciplines
* Firebrands
* Greymanor Investigation
* Vyskant Infection

!Notes
* Borrows largely from ThemeSwitcherPlugin by Martin Budden http://www.martinswiki.com/#ThemeSwitcherPlugin
* Theme is cookie based. But set a default by setting config.options.txtTheme in MptwConfigPlugin (for example)
* Palette is not cookie based. It actually overwrites your ColorPalette tiddler when you select a palette, so beware.
!Usage
* {{{<<selectTheme>>}}} makes a dropdown selector
* {{{<<selectPalette>>}}} makes a dropdown selector
* {{{<<applyTheme>>}}} applies the current tiddler as a theme
* {{{<<applyPalette>>}}} applies the current tiddler as a palette
* {{{<<applyTheme TiddlerName>>}}} applies TiddlerName as a theme
* {{{<<applyPalette TiddlerName>>}}} applies TiddlerName as a palette

I've lost my notes for this session.
Something about protecting Winters from green faced assassins, and haunted theater performances, and then assassinating Veq's kid. It was a messed up session.
Next session:
Investigate Hemlock fruit market and l’enfor noir. L’enfor noir is run by khaats, who built the gentlemen, who hire the staff, who manage the regular employees. They are afraid of the thing that waits behind the coldest flames, and build a ward to seal off its access to this world.
One of the khaats has had dealings with the ministry, and the PCs seek it out. (Name unpronouncable, nicknamed Snarf by the PCs). Snarf is working on exorcising TTTWBTCF from a local madman, Il’zer Shigo.
Lydia uses vermissian powers to exorcise Il’zer, and Snarf thanks them. The PCs negotiate an alliance between Mr. Alas and L’Enfor Noir. This gets them access to Mr. Alas’ smuggling routes, which they want to use to get arms upspire.
Next they set about dismantling Light-Through-Splintered-Glass’ criminal empire. His main lieutenants are:
Mother Moon, the gnoll who runs Arena
The Sisters, three drow who run threadneedle square
Mr Winters, who is engaged in smuggling, weapons, kidnapping, and extortion
Tamar goes spying on Mr Winters, and follows the lieutenants to a great foundry built into the vents below spire. There he spies kidnapped tradespeople from the works chained to forges, forced to make weapons by cruel overseers, led by Corze Drisuzai. He steals Mr Winters’ mask and flees, murdering some guards on the way.
The PCs decide to destroy Mr Winters through reputation damage, since stealing his mask already humiliated him. Next they hire the gladiatrix Molly Millions to wear the mask in her next fight, (which she loses) so everyone knows that Mr Winters lost his mask.
They spy on his money operation to see how he pays of Light-Through-Splintered-Glass. Each week, a trio of aelfir enforcers come downspire, count the cash, and (together with some of Winter’s own soldiers) take the earnings up from Red Row out to the Aelfir District in the Blue Docks. From there, it’s loaded onto a megacorvid to be flown upspire. In exchange, it looks like Light-Through-Splintered-Glass smooths a lot of government wheels for Winters.
The PCs considers means of stealing the money, and instead settle on bombing it. Lydia makes the bomb, Tamar sneaks it into the money pouches, and both roll 10s so a megacorvid explodes over the Blue Port, showing the stalls with feathers and stens.
Light-Through-Splintered-Glass is now disgusted with Winters, and puts out a hit on him, in order to put someone else in charge of the operation. The PCs approach Winters, and Kreth uses a mask of romance to make Winters fall in love with her. He agrees to work with the Ministry if it can protect him from LTSG’s hitmen and provide the infrastructure support to smuggle his goods upspire.
Session Summary 9/9/2018•Red Row crime leaders•Mr Alas allied•Mommas Thinrees – back door surgery•Light-Splintered-Glass allied•Mother Moon – Gnoll female, fight pits, sports beating, an army of pit fighters, and a gang of gnoll males.•Three Sisters – Three sisters who run drug trade. The oldest one marries for society and money; she has many children but no living husbands. The youngest cooks the drugs, the middle one does the books.•Mr. Winter – extortion, weapons, kidnapping, smuggling.•His operation is a large foundry in the lower level ventilation shaft. It is fully operational with hordes of upper level craftsmen, drow, elf, and human, chained to their work stations. An overseer with a cat of nine-tails keeps them working.•Mr Winter is wearing a mask that is of Mother Winter, which Fortunate steals.•The group discusses what to do with the mask and hits upon a scheme where the mask is given to a Mother Moon pit fighter. Abu seduces and pays a friendly female gnoll to place it on her next opponents face, assuming he losses, then tea bagging him. This fails.•Fortunate spies on Mr Winter long enough to see how he pays off Light-Splintered-Glass' lieutenants. This leads to a bomb being placed on the dire raven flying the pay roll to Mr Winter's boss. This causing d8 reputation stress, which causes huge fall out with Light-Splintered-Glass and Mr Winter's reputation within his own organization.•Kreth and Fortunate meet with Mr Winter and offer a helping hand. Kreth wears the Mask of the Lover to make this seem more like good fortune than black mail. Mr Winter signs on with them for protection Light-Splintered-Glass and a replacement of Light-Splintered-Glass' up spire services.•Independent operators•Gentlemen – L'enfor Noir Club. Prostitution.•Corpses never come out of this place•Glass Library – Researching their technology. He Who Waits Beyond theColdest Flame and binding thereof. The Gentlemen come from elsewhere, clock work constructs, who were created by the Khaat (a seven eyed race that drift and flow through our reality). They have strange gifts. The Khaat are refugees hiding from He Who Waits Beyondthe Coldest Flame. Khaat technology of reality bending clockworks is based on keeping that entity away. The club is behind a ward. The Gentlemen are their mouth piece to the Drow and others. The Khaat are hedonists thus the club. The corpses feed the ward and go back through.Page 13 of 16
•One khaat, Snarf, is a friend of the revolution.•The khaat feed corpses to HWHBtCF to keep that one sleepy. They kill when enough corpses are not readily normal.•The khaat need a laundry list of things from the Spire. All of it is weird.•The midwife locates IL'zer Shigo a drow haunted by the supernatural after having glimpsed HWHBtCF where a bathrobe. A memory blank clears his supernatural problem. They drag his unconscious form to a nearby rent-a-hovel, where Snarf appears to them. They successfully broker a treaty of mutual benefit between Wicked Mr Alas and Snarf.•Brother Hellion – religious leader; he and his followers worship the gun.•Kowz •Stone Strong Grassgreen – Hemlock Fruit Market•Mr Alas wants Hemlock Fruit Market

A bordello in [[Middle City]]. The scene of [[Pinioned-Limbs-in-Shadow]]'s assassination.
Drow squatters who live in [[Ivory Row]] mansions in secret, hiding from the landlords.
They're like //The Borrowers//, except not tiny, and a bit stabbier.
The headquarters of the city guard.
!!! The Prison
Filled with cells, screams, and torture chambers. Lots of interrogations are held, along with prisoners patiently waiting for someone to pay bail ransom. Many of the cells are rigged to drop down a "bottomless" pit and crash into Saint Perdita's Circle far below.
Run by [[Warden Wind-Before-Dawn]], who has a recent obsession with Desang theater.
!!! The Guard Headquarters
A boggling maze of offices, hallways, archives, waiting rooms, and piles and piles of paperwork. File clerks outnumber the patrol guards two to one.
Run by [[Commissioner Armon LeVop]], a frantic and put upon drow who just wants the keep things running. Also the domain of [[Lt. Ziminar Langley]] and [[Quartermaster Baub]]
!!! The Middle City Guard Post
The Hive also acts as the central guard post for Middle City, which the building looks way overbuilt for. The middle city guards report to [[Captain Blessed]]
Owned by [[Quint]], a gruff old drow who doesn't ask many questions.
The bar in lower Perch where the ministry cell hangs out and conducts their plans. Tariq is the bartender, and Slav is a bar wench. The rest of the ministry cell are just regulars and layabouts.
The local guard like to come here to drink, even though (or because) it's outside of their jurisdiction. Also, Tariq keeps giving out free drink coupons to the guards as an excuse to walk around the Hive.
The floor is slanted, but there are working bathrooms: diverted water provides some running non-potable water, and a hole in the privy floor drops waste into a long gutter when empties out into the void beneath Perch. The bar also has prominent rafters and an old chandelier.
Over time, the decor has improved, as the players keep stealing furnishings and bringing them back to the bar. The pub's owner has long since stopped questioning this.

|Name:|ToggleTagPlugin|
|Description:|Makes a checkbox which toggles a tag in a tiddler|
|Version:|3.1.0a|
|Date:|27-Jun-2011|
|Source:|http://mptw.tiddlyspot.com/#ToggleTagPlugin|
|Author:|Simon Baird <simon.baird@gmail.com>|
|License:|http://mptw.tiddlyspot.com/#TheBSDLicense|
!!Usage
{{{<<toggleTag }}}//{{{TagName TiddlerName LabelText}}}//{{{>>}}}
* TagName - the tag to be toggled, default value "checked"
* TiddlerName - the tiddler to toggle the tag in, default value the current tiddler
* LabelText - the text (gets wikified) to put next to the check box, default value is '{{{[[TagName]]}}}' or '{{{[[TagName]] [[TiddlerName]]}}}'
(If a parameter is '.' then the default will be used)
* TouchMod flag - if non empty then touch the tiddlers mod date. Note, can set config.toggleTagAlwaysTouchModDate to always touch mod date
!!Examples
|Code|Description|Example|h
|{{{<<toggleTag>>}}}|Toggles the default tag (checked) in this tiddler|<<toggleTag>>|
|{{{<<toggleTag TagName>>}}}|Toggles the TagName tag in this tiddler|<<toggleTag TagName>>|
|{{{<<toggleTag TagName TiddlerName>>}}}|Toggles the TagName tag in the TiddlerName tiddler|<<toggleTag TagName TiddlerName>>|
|{{{<<toggleTag TagName TiddlerName 'click me'>>}}}|Same but with custom label|<<toggleTag TagName TiddlerName 'click me'>>|
|{{{<<toggleTag . . 'click me'>>}}}|dot means use default value|<<toggleTag . . 'click me'>>|
!!Notes
* If TiddlerName doesn't exist it will be silently created
* Set label to '-' to specify no label
* See also http://mgtd-alpha.tiddlyspot.com/#ToggleTag2
!!Known issues
* Doesn't smoothly handle the case where you toggle a tag in a tiddler that is current open for editing
* Should convert to use named params
