OPEN - Scenes of Battle (Scrap metal and artifacts)

: -One scholar has appealed to you to receive a permit to explore the scenes of battle area, and more important, to receive soldierly protection.
: -The protection will cost you 2 BP/month. There are no immediate benefits, but if he discovers more historical items, the kingdom's loyalty score may go up as you begin to establish a creation myth for your country. (1% chance per kingdom turn)
: -The Historian can do more to boost this. (Increases chance by 1% per stat modifier).

OPEN-Fey Mushrooms. Feyfire Mushrooms. The Fey creatures are very upset that their plants have gone missing-their secret garden was raided and destroyed by an adventurer, Chess Rivkin, who Sharell met.
-The fey need a replacement supply.
: (1) The plants are created by the bodies of sacrificed unborn children who have been taken from mothers' wombs.
: (2) There are two other groves, but they are thousands of miles away.
: (3) The ones that were destroyed may have been picked, rather than destroyed. The person who took them seemed to come from quite far away, however, and his trail has gone cold.
OPEN - Bokken and The Old Beldamae have a request for Manticore Quills, which have been proven, Bokken states, to be especially deadly against Fey, Kobolds, and Gnomes. If he has the quills, he can figure out a type of acid to coat arrows and swords with. He will freely coat your weapons with it and provide it with a supply as soon as he figures out how to synthesize and reproduce manticore quills...
Basically he needs
(1) Manitcore Quills from 4 manticores
and either (2A) baby manticore eggs. IT will take him 1d6+10 years to develop the coating if this is what you get-although modifiers can be improved if other scholars can be attracted to the lands with a Mage Tower.
(2Ai) Also, Alex and/or Jang and/or Ashiara (non main PCs and NPCs) can contribute to reduce it with a DC 25 arcana check each to reduce it by 1 year. Alternatively a DC 22 Know: Planes can help similarly. BUT with each PC/NPC who succeeds on the check, the difficulty increases by +3 for the next one (need to know new knowledge).
OR (2B) if you don't get the eggs, then he needs some obscure magical literature that may or may not exist deep in the depths of a dwarven hold (Gnomes were once mortal enemies of dwarves). If he gets this, it may take him 1d6+2 years or less.
With 2A and 2B then he has a quicker chance of success.

: 'Open' - Mushrooms- +4000 gp to the party one time for delivering supplies to Brevoy for emergency magical mushroom supplies. The head of House Medvyed will provide you the reward.
: Apparently, the mushrooms are needed to counteract a strange sickness that effectively sterilized the populations around the Orlovsky and Medvyed holds (-1 Economy as you deplete the supply of mushrooms due to this one-time gift).

They claim that resolving the issue is a matter of internal state business and that they would prefer to wait it out to see if nature heals this naturally; (+5 diplomatic relations with the other two factions if you do the quest).
Add 1000 gp, but no boost to diplomatic relations. The reapers of secrets got the mushrooms through and skimmed off the top. -5 diplo relationship with them, becuase this was a big risk on Biggs part. He's really sour about this and Gibbs. Suffer the -1 to Economy here. But don't suffer the -20 diplo hit with the surtovans
:
: Open - Teak wood- Massively expand the teak wood harvesting resources results in 10 BP points one time; however it reduces the relations with Tig and Perlivash significantly. (-20 fey relations).

One enterprising gnome has started a dart throwing competition where the person who throws a dart (with a fairy impaled on it) into the Tree's mouth, will receive a few cp as a reward. If they fail to throw the dart correctly in the tree, then they must pay the gnome a few sp.

Also 2 arrows of target honing (If you can see the target; +5 additional attack bonus). Those arrows have blinking red lights on them.
The pair are exploring ancient Cyclops culture and Ashiara eventually figures out that they are probably trying to research the great Cyclopean Deathray, although they claim to be more interested in the Cyclopses technology for increasing crop yields and refrigeration. Given that the only Cyclopean words they are familiar with deal with death and destruction-- their story didn't fully check out. (Note: Ashiara should speak Cyclopean). They have not yet moved on to Varnhold however, since Briesis has come down with a significant sickness.
Ios offers a headband of inspired wisdom +2 if you can come back with cyclopean tablets, a map to the place where you found cyclops burial sites, and other information related to the ancient Cyclopean empire.
