He knows the vrijbond is a student society that has recently become politically active (it used to be just a drinking club). They're dedicated to worker's rights and oppose the corruption of the city's ruling elite.

He doesn't know about any connection to the new millenialists.

It's a bit more complicated than that.

But Rufus, I'm an American! We love fighting dirty rottin' commies! It's what we do!

Not sure if this will turn into a fight, actually.

Marxvalt Markvalt is someone Hans would probably like, if he wasn't so deep in conspiracies! They share similar views.

Is there space for Admund to side step or dodge? Is he between trestle tables?

I think Admund, being a finesse guy, would try to sidestep the guy shoving him and give him a push so he falls over. Don't know how to test for that. Initiative?

Ok cool. I didn't know how confined a space Admund was in. Here's hoping his swordsmen agility helps him deescalate this.

It's a typical night for me.  :happy:

We're trying to catch the witch! I want to help clean out the wizard house too! So many interesting things, so little time. At least maybe we can disrupt her chances of using these idiots for her own nefarious means.

Nice!

I think Crijspin van Haagen appeared before, but I can't find it so had to be vague with the description in case it ended up being different.

He was in the Three of a Kind getting stood up by Etelka I think, when we first met Trancas.

So he was! Thanks.

I didn't describe him then, either. Because the book didn't.

It's not Klaus!

It's Crijspin van Haagen, who she saw in the Three of a Kind when the group went to talk to Trancas.

I was going to ask you the same. I. Suspicious that this student group will be used to attack Haagen for being rich and they'll try to frame us for instigating it.

Could be. Quite unsure. All Hans knows from the journal is that van Haagen is deeply corrupt but Markvalt is still an outer circle figure and perhaps saveable. He isn't sure if what you overheard means he is going to meet Haagen or attack Haagen. The print shop is likely the Embassy, also likely the cult meeting place according to Hans' interpretation of the journal.

Couldn't the print shop be that print shop we stopped by earlier? (Yesterday in game time)

Should we - split up? You're good at tailing people. Follow Karl Marx Markvalt? Both of us follow? Should I go join Mortus and Max? Wait outside near that halfling. Stay at the beer garden and watch the student group?

I'm thinking we should both stay put and see what develops. I'm OK if Hans would want to tail them.


The man is in his mid thirties, with foppish hair, a jacket with enormously puffed sleeves, and a jeweled rapier at his side.

I googled "foppish hair" and got a picture of Hugh Grant. I'm going to imagine us fighting Hugh Grant.

That sounds about right!



I think this is one of those situations where no one is sure what to do.
