Smith's Gambit Needs You!
Under a painting of Erret Smith pointing as if to the viewer of the notice, is printed:

Adventurers!

The Rimewood is teeming with unknown threats and valuable secrets! I will pay a minimum of 25g to each member of a party who brings new information brought in that helps ensure the safety and prosperity of the town!

I will also pay 200g for each 1-day section of map a party fills in, to be split among the party as you choose.

UNDERWAY

Guards Wanted-- Boring Work, Easy Money!

We are sending some builders to set up a watchtower on a hill just north of town, while a new arrival builds a hut there for extra support. 25gp a person to see that they make it there and back safely. Good sightlines means you'll have plenty of time to prepare for anything that would be bothered to come up the hill.

Room for 4 players.



OOC:
1-2 level 1 combat encounters, no long rests. Players may hunt, forage, or if they have tools to do so, craft while they wait (as if they had 1 free downtime unit.)

Reward: 25gp, 100 xp, 1 downtime unit, plus loot and xp for any combat. And you'll be helping another player set up her home :)

Warship Diplomacy

Smith's Gambit needs a good diplomat, strong warriors and clever magic users to visit the home village of a vanquished enemy, and convince them it would not be wise to fight us. We already have two members of the group that killed their warchief willing to go, which will hopefully get them to back off but if a fight breaks out anyway, we will need others to fight.

It has come to my attention that some fishmen have begun to prepare a ritual sacrifice on the night of the new moon. They intend to summon a spined devil for reasons unknown. Needless to say, I want this stopped. Should the ritual be completed, be prepared to fight a flying devil who resists non-magical weapons. ~ Erret Smith.

Greetings Countrymen,

With the blessing of Governor Erret Smith, I have toiled to build a Fighting Pit near my homestead. The First Tournament has just begun, do you lust for great glory or great wealth? See below for more information

You must prove yourself to qualify. The tournament-runner respects strength of all kinds and levels. The tournament will have space for eight combatants. The matches will be Randomized. The second round is the semifinals, and the third the finals.

The public citizens of Smith's Gambit are encouraged to place bets on their favorite combatant, before the first round begins. There is a minimum entry fee of five silver pieces, but there is no maximum entry fee. If your combatant makes it to the semifinals, you will have the option to take back your money early, or to 'let it ride'. If your combatant wins the tournament and becomes champion, you will be paid back one and a half times what you placed.

Entry fee to watch the tournament is Five Gold Pieces, unless you place a bet of any size.

The runner up will win the following:

 - 20% of all bets placed on them
 - 50 Gold Pieces
 - Two healing potions

The tournament champion will win the following:

 - 40% of all bets on them
 - 100 Gold Pieces
 - Four healing potions
 - A trophy or medallion made of solid gold

Additionally, the organizer will reap 10% of all bets placed on the champion and runner up, before combatants are paid. All uncollected bets are paid in full to him.

Please note that combatants and tournament officials are banned from placing bets.

WARNING: As per the laws set in place by Governor Erret Smith, combatants are to abstain from afflicting lethal damage on their opponents when possible. Immediately after a match, combatants are to step aside for emergency medics who will assess the situation and perform whatever aid if required.

Assault on Burning Stag
The Redfoot have occupied a strategically important fortified village called Burning Stag, which they use as a staging ground for their violent expansion. Our allies in the Rimewood are preparing to take the village, and use it against them, so they can drive the Redfoot back to wherever the hells they came from, and they need our help!

Our allies will maintain a siege, but the rest is up to us!

Two to Four squads will be needed:

One to mount a direct assault on the gates, to keep the bulk of their forces busy. Be prepared for sustained battle! (Recommended level 4+. No long rests. Rewards 1100xp, 500gp, 5 downtime units, plus loot and xp from combat. If you find any treasure hoards, however, you are expected to share with the other squads!)

Squad 1:
Tidelan
Spark
Victor
Tusk
Malkus
Carmen


One to infiltrate within the walls, take out priority targets, and then if the assault team hasn't brought the gates down, to open them from the inside. (Recommended level 4+. No long rests. Rewards 1100xp, 500gp, 5 downtime units, plus loot and xp from combat. If you find any treasure hoards, however, you are expected to share with the other squads!)

Squad 2:
Santio
Nutcracker
Izayah
Elisar
Lukas Verbannt


Optionally, two to guard the roads leading to the village, to ensure no enemies get in or out, and to intercept any messengers. Mobility or ranged combat ability recommended! Keep the enemy from disrupting the siege! (Recommended level 2+. No long rests. Rewards 450xp, 200gp, 5 downtime units, plus loot and xp from combat. If you find any treasure hoards, however, you are expected to share with the other squads!)

Squad 3:
Golun
Larwick
Walter
Ten
Tiria
Brohm

Squad 4: Room for 5 (I can fill this squad with NPCs, or split squad 3 in two, if necessary, but both increase the risks.
Divock
Donella Turen
Sovok
Azu
Sai
Qitris


If interested, report to me at the town hall, and let me know which squad you prefer.

Securing local resources

With the victory at Burning Stag the remaining Red Foot have been scattered to the four winds. Now that the relative safety of the region is secured for the time being it is time to look for local sources of key materials to be used to expand and improve the fledgling town and it's outposts. Erret Smith is looking to secure reliable local sources of stone, coal, metal ores, potable water, arable land and quality lumber.

Difficulty and rewards vary.
 * Reward for location and sample of raw materials that can be farmed or mined.
 * Reward for clearing a location of monsters and other threats to potential sites.

Coastal Dwarven Ruins?

Another set of Dwarven ruins has been discovered, this one attached to a ruined sea-elf fortress!
What has been explored of it so far has been relatively dry... and quiet. I suspect a cave-in has blocked access to the surface. I want a team to find evidence of how it came to be abandoned, and if possible, find a dry passage to the surface. Underwater breathing abilities, cold resistance, and excavation tools recommended. I will, of course, pay for maps, as well. We'll use Carmen's crystal to send you there.
