Fina’s Notes
In Fina’s own words…
Ah, a fresh new day. I find myself prioritizing. Number one: Contact Sarai. Actually, that’s a big one. Let’s focus on that a bit.
I went to the shrine and prayed a while, after having sacrificed a pilfered money pouch. Arya came by and we had a chat. I brought her up to speed and she looked appropriately terrified. Eventually I got hungry though and concluded the best way to draw Sarai’s attention was to make a bit of mischief. After assuaging my hunger perhaps I shall go and work on recreating the Word of Creation.

Fina’s Notes
In Fina’s own words…

In Fina’s own words…
I let Lady Blackwell know the good news! We decided to let Amara tell the mayor though. Probably… safer that way. I also let Margie know some of the details, but that was before Amara and I talked. I keep my mouth shut except for general info to the others.
After waking Margie ...
Fina’s Notes: The Dungeon and Pirates
In Fina’s words
So we went back up the stairs and Cathal kept looking at the mud wall, saying something moved in there. Well, I says, use a pointy thing and poke it. So he shot an arrow into it, but, yeah. Nothing.
After some investigation of the magically sealed, steel door, we discovered that the mud ...

Fina’s Notes: The Pirate and the Dwarf
Fina’s own words
So I’ve never met a pirate before. Imagine! A human captain of a vessel manned by hobgoblins! This Captain Harless must be very brave and quite ruthless, too. I’m sure he sees our little town far from Avonia as a good place to resupply and offload some of his possibly ill-gotten goods.
Knowing he must have ...
Leaving Home Humphrey, manservant and butler for Blackwell Manor hoisted Lady Amara Blackwell’s large truck onto the roof of the black carriage. Fina thought he was a surprising man. Humphrey was middle-aged and a little skinny, but he seemed much stronger than he looked. Lady Blackwell’s trunk was nearly as large as he and surely ...
Fina walked gracefully up the stairs to her room to finish getting ready for her evening. She had just left the baths and smelled of lavender and rose. She’d spent an hour combing her hair and putting it up in an artful swirl at the back of her head, while leaving a few careful strands ...

Minor Addition to Retired Campaigns Menu
Just a note that I added a link to the Hero City blog created many moons ago to support a superhero campaign. We do go back to this old setting to play new adventures. The site records just the original campaign.
You can go directly to Hero City now by going to Retired Campaigns and clicking the last selection in the menu.
