12 - Rigsm Family
Gormon Rigsm
Gormon is an elf living in the Tulip Downs, only a couple blocks away from the Inn. He is a commoner with 20hp and knows Ray of Frost cantrip (1d8 cold, reduce speed by 10ft). If he has the chance he'll try to explain Naomi died 19 years ago when blew her own cover while trying to find a way to kill King Hayton, he only turned her in to protect himself and the King. It was either she dies or they both die.
He truely doesn't know what happened with their daughter Maleny. He knows Naomi was publiclly executed, he didn't attend and doesn't know where her body is.

Bank notes They're the 'reward' for turning Naomi in and foiling the assassination plot, 500gp, but city was short on physical coin so bank issued me four notes to be cashed in later
Naomi Rigsm
Stash is located in alleyway opposite of my home, “Look for the red tile, count 3 to the left or the right, so hazy now. Lift that tile and you'll find it.”
- 100gp
- Locket with a portrait of a child tiefling with notably elvish ears
- Short sword with “The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long” written in infernal
- Normal short sword but can expend a hit dice to deal extra 1d6 fire damage per die
Returning the locket, Naomi thanks the group and stares at the locket, “Oh my sweet Maleny I hope you're alright.”
Naomi sent Maleny way with a group of outlawed escaping the city, she looks toward Takitar “You must be very brave to stay in this city, our kinds don't usually last long”
Asking about Maleny, Naomi won't have much to say, she was a good kid made the best of living in secrecy, no idea what happened after she left Sunwood, they were headed South into the desert.
Maleny Rigsm
Maleny was 5 when she was sent away, that was 27-28 years ago (32-33 if still alive). Neither Gormon or Naomi know what happened after sending her South other than a letter say she was with an enclave in Graycott.

Drugs
Called Mind's Eye, enhances intellect and wisdom. Most people dilute it into drinks, takes edge off beneficial and detrimental effects, longer lasting. Ingesting as is can “open your mind's eye man” but more likely cause issues once it wears off.
- Dilute - 4hr, Adv on all Int & Wis checks
- Raw - 1hr, increase Int & Wis by 2, Adv on all Int & Wis checks. 1 Exhaustion once worn off

Rough them up but don't kill them. Goal is to get them to rejoin or at least put an end to their side hustle.

EKH
Ellis Hagemann
M Half Orc
Boots: He's an arborist who has a farm on the edge of sprawl toward the North shore.
Ellis Large tree farm, rows of pine at various ages. A wide dirt path leads up to a large open barn where you can see piles of logs and a bit further back a well built homestead. In the barn you see a singular orcish figure heaving sizable logs onto a cart.
Ellis pays protection money to torment of claws, he thinks the party is there to collect or increase price even though he's already paid up. He acknowledges EKH are his initials but doesn't know about the scrolls.
E.K. Hedington
M Elf
Boots: He's an elf, CEO of the Gold Alliance but inherited the position from his farther, lives in a mansion in Lambert's Gate, guarded well paid guards. Not an easy job to break in and their bank and office is even harder.
"Kid"
F Gnome
Boots: Top student in Master Hebaroot's classes, keeps to themselves but to a strict routine, lives in Tulip heights. Has been acting oddly past day or two. More jumpy than when first started watching.
“Kid”: Readily admits stealing a teleportation circle from Hebaroot, she used it, saw hell, returned home and returned the circle. Repeatedly apologises fearing for her life, offering to leave town and never return.
