Are there any statues of one such as her, or any of her followers? Did she drop anything when she left?

"We might be able to gather marigolds, or buy them from a florist.  Coral can sometimes be found in jewelers' shops, perhaps more likely near the docks.  It wouldn't surprise me if we find figurines of Kalima or Kali near Temple Hill."

Grimaldi shrugs and glances at Sederic.
"Hopefully, it's still here, when they decide what they're doing, or just what they're looking for.. C'mon."

He follows the others at some distance and slower pace.

make a scrounging roll over by the trinket sellers by temple hill.

"Weren't you two going with Mancini to try to find the shop while the rest of us look for things that will help bring Kalima back?"

[Private to GM: 18:48, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 10 using 3d6.  Scrounging (default = 6) to find trinkets related to Kalima.]

In reply to Ardenas Barehand (msg # 119):

That was my understanding, and Sederic will act accordingly.

Oly sees nothing...

One of the tent shop vendors has a number of brass figurines that resemble Kalima, with miniature necklaces of skulls and a belt of arms. He is very enthusiastic about your interest.

Ardenas examines the figures.

"Is this Mother Kali?"  He looks closely at the face, searching for a resemblance.

"The best strategy would be to mostly survail the place until we are sure the others have the necessary items. Then, once Kalima is brought back into our realm, attack and destroy the shop, and bring back the owner to the Haedereum to get our paychecks."

"This sounds like it could take awhile. Why don't we make ourselves look inconspicuous, and find somewhere we can stake-out this spot?..."

In reply to Grimaldi (msg # 125):

"Or act as interested customers..."

"I was thinking of being interested consumers. I'm thinking we can maybe draw out some useful information.... Merchants will tell you their life stories if they think it will make them the sale."

"I am curious about this shop... Though the entire inventory is cursed, no doubt. I certainly wouldn't take any trophies... Greed in the face of such foes, is a mortal folly they rely upon, all to well..."

In reply to Ardenas Barehand (msg # 123):

"You know of Her? Our lady of Death, the Slayer of Demons, Savior of the New be Million Gods?"

"I am more familiar with Kalima.  In fact, I've spoken and hunted demons with her recently, in the flesh."

In reply to Molaram (msg # 129):

"Yes, Kalima was a friend of ours. I went shopping with her as well."

In reply to Aoife (msg # 131):

" Surely you do not mean Mother Kali... Perhaps a child of one of her avatars?"

In reply to Molaram (msg # 132):

"Perhaps, but the resemblance was striking. Her name was Kalima."

"Three eyes, flames for hair, four arms, carried a spear, and had a distinct taste for demon hearts, but I don't recall the skirt of arms.  When we met her, she was dressed for much warmer weather.

"I think I recall her saying she was a descendant or relative of Mother Kali."

In reply to Ardenas Barehand (msg # 134):

"She sounds wonderful, and definitely a relation. I can sell this to you for $50, but tell me why you have need of it. Any service I can render to Kali is one I desire to perform."

Ardenas looks at the figure, eyes narrowed, then digs a franc out of his pouch.  "She disappeared in the middle of a fight with a sorcerer who used stones to cast spells and summon demons; we think she was banished back to her home plane.  We hope to use this as part of a summoning to bring her back."

He digs in his pouch again, and brings out some coppers.

Oly can add some silvers

Before they left, Mancini gave Norman $100 total in various coin to aid in the procurement of items. Norman is instructed to help the others financially as he saw fit.

In reply to Ardenas Barehand (msg # 136):

"Tell me when you with to do this thing. I have a small circle of the faithful who would be delighted to assist in such an endeavor. This plague of demons must be brought to an end, in Mail's name."
