Case 5716:

Teryn Sivm, the Nursing student with a Dragon Pull

**Case 5716** is the second case the reinvigorated Prince Division took on, with the express interest in investigating the disappearance of nursing student Taryn Sivm.

## Case Notes

A teacher of Taryn's reported to the division that her student, Taryn Sivm, has been missing for a week since the party accepted the case. The Division began their investigation by looking up her information in the Prince/Princess database, where they find out that Taryn has a *Draconic Pull*, a specific sub-condition of Princess that attracts dragons, and they immediately begin shifting their investigation towards any dragons that had entered the campus of Sivm's university over the past month.

The party gather their information together, and head to the campus to get some answers from people at the school, and security camera footage to cross-reference and to narrow down suspects. After a night of rest, they spend the next few days interviewing suspects, eventually narrowing down on Caustimire the Green, a green dragon with ties to a draconic supremacy group. Further discussion with suspects help turn her into the prime suspect when they came to question the employees at her club; she was not at her club at the time of the kidnappin, but the bartender gave her location up easily, and when the party came to question Caustimire, she resisted arrest, where they inevitably detained her, then dropped her off at the station for processing.

The next day, the tech division found Taryn's phone, and the party tracked it down, only to then find a scene that revealed bloodstains. On the way back to the station, the party responded to a bank robbery in progress. After dealing with that, they headed back to the station to drop off the phone to hopefully find information within her texts, to test the blood, and then begin to interrogate Caustimire. During the interrogation, the Tech Division got back to the party with the text messages and security footage, and it was there that it was revealed that her and Caustimire had entered a romantic relationship, but attempted to break it off, due to not wanting to put each other in danger. But employees of Caustimire found out and tricked Taryn using Caustimire's phone to kidnap her, in an attempt to make themselves more powerful. The group released Caustimire into their own custody, and they looked for leads toward their hiding place after getting further information from an informant manticore that was in the fiend district. Later, they launched a raid on the building.

The raid ended up going through most of the employees, except for the dragon bartender and the dragon bouncer. They found Taryn, who was greivously injured, in a horde, and were intercepted by the bartender when they attempted to extract her. A battle ensued, where the party loaded Taryn in the car, with Gibby taking Ms Sivm to the hospital, while the rest of the party fought the bartender, keeping it from escaping to pursue the car, with Bryant and Tanis keeping the perpetrator occupied. After a few close calls, the Prince Division took the Bartender down and arrested him, with Bryant allowing Caustimire to walk way so she was not released into the custody of the Ancient Green Dragon, Acidback.

During Taryn's hospital stay, Caustimire came to visit to try and figure out what to do next, soon after Acidback, the ancient green dragon, came to offer Taryn a Position with his other princesses, but Caustimire immediately attempted to intervene that required the Division to separate the two. After a terse discussion with Acidback, he offered Caustimire a job as Bodyguard for Taryn, as well as awarding a new title to Caustimire. Caustimire and Taryn accepted the offers unilaterally. After a month of paperwork, and a home check up of Acidback's penthouse at Emerald Investments, the case was officially closed.

## Case Follow-ups

Taryn and Caustimire's time in Acidback's estate has been otherwise un-noteworthy, but Caustimire and Acidback are frequently sniping at each other, and at least two different times, Caustimire has had to leave the building to stay with other people due to their clashes. Otherwise, monthly check-ups have been set for Emerald Investments' penthouse, and no further needs have been implemented.
