Vinmira

See: Day 64 – The Vinmira Monologues,Days 87-94 (10-17 May),Zoom 2020-04-22 21:00,Vinmiras Departure

A somewhat louche Dwarf with a highly variable accent, large appetite and a great love of brandy. A high level Intelligence officer for Alvera.

* First encountered at the The Bridge outstide Braerk.
* Next encountered in Far Haven at Miriam's shop, then that evening at our tarvern lodgings.
* The following evening we met with, what we now believe, was a beer drinking Fake Vinmiria (FV) - possibly an enhanced Doppelganger.
* The body of (a) Fake Vinmira was discovered on Day 94 apparently killed by Dark Hoof Centaurs centaurs after destroying Onwen's Holy symbol.
* We then met the, hopefully, real **Vinmira** at The Dunes, having been directed there by the Interesting Times Gang. "Real" Vinmira was shown "Fake" Vinmira's body - which was reverting to a Doppelganger form, but was also regenerating and had to be killed again.
* Left without saying goodbye, but did leave us a note, on Day 99.

We recovered a scroll from 'Fake' Vinmira's body that needed 'Read Magic' to read. It is a verbose set of contradictory instructions – generally random directions to or from places. . When plotted on a map, the disconnected journey directions do seem to form an incomplete part of some runic writing – say about half of the lines needed. About 30 to 40 letters worth. So one assumes that there will be the ‘partner’ scroll to this somewhere. However, at the bottom of the scroll, Garaf was able to determine in a simpler code the name 'MORAC' next to an embossed symbol of the Wild. Umar remembers that Morac was someone high-up in Torgan.

According to Uil Treesoar, **Vinmira** was "*a representative of a small and very secretive cult that was obviously established to support Soratan's return*.". This may be complete bullshit - certainly, Uil didn't say anything about Doppelgangers.

Kirsten was unable to distinguish between thes scents of 'Real' and 'Fake' Vinmiras). We assume it was a 'Fake Vinmira' who set the Tres Amigos onto us in Far Haven to delay/prevent our journey to White Beach. Real Vinmira does not know if Miriam had been compromised/replaced, or if her message to us in Northlake had been intercepted.

Other info from Zoom 2020-04-22 21:00: Vinmira seemed happy to hear that we hadn’t followed Saratak’s vision of us defending Onwen at his villa. His spells/skills are centred on obscurement rather than divination.

~~His recommendation of Cagrun and Gohde means that we now question their motives/loyalty as well.~~

The Dwarf stretches, yawns and gets up, he is quite young for a dwarf and dressed in a motley collection of mismatched clothing, even to the point of having a boot on one foot and a sandal on the other.

He holds Cargun and Gohde in high regard: *"If’n you take my advice I would say listen to Gohde and Cagrun, both of them know what is what and have a decent regard for keeping folk alive."*
Has 'Level 1' Clearsight.
