Session Summary

After a bit of a scare with the snake in the scullery, Saul is feeling a bit reminiscent and divulges some of his past, namely his connections to the Riddleport criminal element, though he swears that he is clean and trying to make a legitimate go at being a businessman this time. He is quite convincing.

Several days go by in the casino, and things are well. Everyone is settling into their new roles as bar and gambling hall owners and seeing that they actually enjoy some of it. Bodi has created a few new drinks at the bar and Aragon has begun giving dancing lessons to some of the more cultured ladies of Riddleport. Snargash's musical performances have been well received and word has gotten about the 'Gold Goblin' that sings at the Gold Goblin.

More strange events seem to keep taking place around Riddleport, mostly minor things that drinkers can talk about over cocktails. A new serving girl is hired, much to Bodi's pleasure, a Half-Elven beauty named Samaritha Beldusk, recently arrived in town with aspirations to join the Lodge of the Cyphermages. Unfortunately for her, there were no openings for new apprentices at the time so she had to look for other opportunities of employment and ended up at the Gold Goblin.

Aragon notices a group of local ruffians harassing Gold Goblin customers as they leave the building, so the crew heads out to chase them off. Later Saul has the group take a payment for supplies to one of his captain friends on the docks and on the way back, there is a freak tidal surge, washing water and other aquatic menaces up onto the streets of Riddleport. 

The group quickly come to the rescue of one of the fine citizens of Riddleport who had been beset upon by a dangerous Reefclaw who had been washed up by the wave.
