The Gangsters Campaign/Session 3

(meta-knowledge for non-logan ppl) 
*Harriet made some offer to the frog people and we are waiting to see if they’ll take it
**She wants to sell them and in exchange get out of some obligation with Church of Dalthad
**she’s susceptible to dalthadian temptations – some addictive elixir. Also, her blood is traceable by the church (?)
**They want her blood… just to see what the obligations are to the Dalthadis! Definitely not to control her or destroy her soul! … probably
***Maybe the quantity of blood affects how much control they get, if that’s their goal?
Vec’s shop: Sarge, Gertrude, Vec, Jeff, Harriet
*Sarge asks Vec not to let him get tortured; Vec attempts to save his life
*Gertrude interrogates him first
**I know you work for the trenchies and that they were doing cleanup for someone else. Who was that, and what were they covering up?
**Who were the guys? Hooded, veiled. “when they spoke it sounded like ringing in my ears, but i knew what they meant to say.” 
**What were they trying to cover up?
***There’s something they wanted that the flood waters washed up -- something they couldn’t get at before, but is “going to help them a lot.” They’re dredging the fens
***They’re also grabbing people, taking them into the swamps, and they don’t come back... or only part of them does
**Who are the targets:
***Anyone helping them dredge the fens who talks (to the magistrates, or to Prektanos, or to .. someone else, maybe Randolph?)
**Gertrude thinks that’s all they’ll get from him… but still can’t just let him go (already called the boss). Lets Vec cut him loose to give him a chance; shoots him from Vec’s upstairs window when two of Prektanos’s guys fail. RIP.
Things prektanos wanted to know:
*Who in the warehouse worked with the trenchies & what they’ve been doing
*What is happening in the West Fens and how will it be used against Prektanos’ gang
*What the magistrate (and the other office people) know and how they know it
Harriet tries to give the frog bois a family member’s blood instead of hers
*…. “Not fresh enough! This is DEAD BLOOD”
*And they want her to do it with their small super-sharp knife because it’s going to “hold” the blood lol cool
*“Alright, it’s time to make bad decisions!”
**Gives them some blood via her own knife, but IT’S NOT ENOUGH
**So she gives them more blood! 
Jeff says the guy who brought Harriet the medallions smelled of the marsh, wore big watertight boots, and hadn’t slept in a while
Randolph etc fill in Gertrude on the forgettable dudes near the murder site… she realizes one of them was there when she saved Molly / captured Sarge
Everyone goes to Vec and tries to ask him intelligent questions
Then we go to Harriet, with slightly more success (i.e. she tells Gertrude that the medallion she saw explode on contact with Jeff’s blood is probably relevant, & maybe implies a link with the lizard people)
*Vec + Harriet solo: yes, she has some medallions and is probably selling them to these guys. (they appear to be useful in some creepy blood ritual, which would be nice to know)
*Vec’s contact will be invited to town to check out the medallion
Harriet goes off with the frog men and some of the medallions (they need her to leave *now*, apparently to fix her blood situation)
*When Jeff opens the shop door, all Harriet hears before she’s out of range is a painful ringing
G-men show up and arrest Vec regarding Sarge’s death… yikes. 
*on the way out they stop into Harriet’s shop “to ask her to look after his shop” -- where they find one of the fish guys dismembered and burned out from the inside (?!). Jeff is still there and totally uninjured, except he is now blind, deaf, and mute. Poor Jeff.
