Merlock Tomes - Report on the Night King

I have written a report for you. Here is a copy in Common and here is one in Infernal if

you would rather burn the one in Common as it could be read by anyone.

The Night King is a clone of Manshoon and also a vampire. He styles himself as Orlak II.

He is currently attempting to woo Thistle Thavalar so that he may marry her and become

king of Westgate. He courts her as Tristan Daughtinghorn.

Tristan Daughtinghorn is a real living human man. He is really a ship's captain. He is

a good man, but totally under the power of the Night King, beleiving that he is working

his way to joining the Order of the Basilisk. Daughtinghorn goes about by day, generally

and the Night King poses as him by night. They look very alike and the Night King also

helps this along with magic - although I must say, having seen both of them they look

as alike as twins.

The Night King has several dwellings in the catacombs and a dwelling in Blackrune Citadel,

commonly known as the Vampire Keep. That is where he currently is.

He is conserned about the attacks by one Barry Shitknees, the Vampire Hunter, but not

overly. Adventurers like that come and go and he does not see them as particularily

threatening, just an occupational hazzard.

He is very concerned to get his hands on the Crown of Baleforte, but he is in no hurry.

As an immortal undead he is quite happy to bide his time and wait for an oppertunity to

snatch it. He is likely to give the task of getting the crown to one of his captains.

Just recently though (I learned this yesterday) someone killed the real Daughtinghorn

and he has taken this very personally. All his efforts are now being directed towards

finding the culprit. Daughtinghorn was killed by an incredibly rare posion called

'Ilmater's Bane' which can only be found in the Martyrdomain.

I am aware that you are working for a power patron of some kind. I do not wish to

know who they are. I can say at this stage though he does not know he is a target of

this powerful patron. Despite all his spies and magic, your powerful patron has

managed to keep his attention diverted elsewhere.

That is only true of up until today though. At some point it may be that he finally

realised someone is trying to thwart his plans. To be honest I expect him to realise

this any day now. He is very clever and will put the pieces of the puzzle together

soon.

In summary:

1. The Night King is currently in the Blackrune Citadel.

1. The Night King thinks that marrying Thistle Thavalar as Daughtinghorn is all going to plan.

       The real Daughtinghorn is doing most of the work.

2. The Commander of the Watch, Raziel Lightningrod, is a powerful warlock, but not an imeediate threat.

3. He want's the Crown of Baleforte. He was after it from the beginning and will send powerful forces to get it.

4. He sees Barry Shitknees as a Vamp Hunter, thanks to all the bluffing going on.

       But - there is a trail here that is easy to follow. Lord Bloodwurst has met and been

       defeated by several warlocks just recently. At Cedarspoke, and in the Underdark on three

       seperate occassions. The masked warlock in the Underdark was seen with Reinward, who is now

       living in the same house as the Commander of the Watch.

       Eventually they are going to realise that Raziel Lightningrod, Eandhehrt Dige, Barry Shitkees,

       and the Underdark Warlock are one and the same person.

5. A powerful group of adventurers have been causing trouble at the Blackrune Citadel.
