intrigues. They split up; Belros,
Searos, & Netheral going with Hans to look for his sister in the Slum
Markets. While Finwe & Elexan went
to secure lodging for the winter.
Unknown to Finwe & Elexan was the terrible business the others were
quickly ensared in. While looking for
lodging they learned quickly that the Black Panther masks they were wearing
meant something in Phlan.
The
Black Panthers are an elite group that operates in the background of Phlan,
stealthily weaving there net of justice through out the streets. They found there way to one of the guilds
safe-hosues and learned that the slums are an extremely dangerous area for the
Black Panthers, for that area of Phlan is still under the grip of the Krimson
Klan of Kanine.
Of particular danger is the Cracked Crown Inn where Yaro, founder of the
Black Panthers was currently under cover.
Venturing
to the Cracked Crown quickly turned to chaos as the Krimson Klan Gnolls deep hatred of
the Black Panthers quickly turned to battle.
They
were able to win the battle in the Cracked crown and gain the allegiance of
Yaro, then learn the whereabouts of the Gnoll slaver camp outside of Phlan.
