Intersession Questions

The party got a lot of questions answered during session 3, but many more remain. Here is the list of questions players identified to me at the end of session 3 as important ones they hoped to investigate further:

1) The party has already found a lot of evidence suggesting the reason for the planar disturbances, nightmares, and recent spate of deaths in Hastenport is that Arthon, possibly in alliance with the demon lord Chavalk, has used an artifact called a Dreamstone to create an unstable dreamscape overlapping parts of the Grey Citadel district. Much of this evidence has come from his ex-wife and former co-cult-leader, however, so corroboration from a less biased source might still be desirable.

2) Learning more about Arthon and how to defeat him, including what the Dreamstone is and what the magic key Genevieve gave you does.

3) Learning more about Chavalk and what he meant by an "invasion."

4) Finding out what happened to Piper (the green-robed woman who saved Jon from Arthon.)

5) Finding out where Vanessa went and whether there was foul play involved.

6) Finding out who Greeley really is, what he was so panicked about, and what the deal is with his supposed conspiracy against the Duchess.

7) Finding out who the mysterious half-elven corpse in the closet was.

8) Finding the Book of Dreams that had been stolen from the cult and which Donaway had been trying to fence. (Recall that two booksellers in the Market Square were found dead under mysterious circumstances after communicating with him about it.)

9) Figuring out more about the political situation in Hastenport (gathering information about the mayor, Magistrate Tell, and Captain Black.)

10) Learning more about these peculiar distortions of reality you have been experiencing at several locations around town--what do they mean and why are they happening to some people/places but not others?

The next session will open with the PCs continuing their investigations in Hastenport, so think about which map locations you have not been to yet and want to investigate, which map locations you have already been to but have new information that makes them worth revisiting, and which NPCs you want to go back to to question about one or more of these topics.

I've been saying this every game session since #2, but I *really* *really* think you can solve the mystery next game this time. You learned a lot this session, and a lot of clues are falling into place at this point. Time will tell, though...
