Roll 4 Cliniciative | Ep 12 | The festival of the Mo
After a ship-deck battle, the party finds an invitation to Char Thunderaxe’s engagement party at Netherington Manor and a job flyer for Oakhaven’s Festival of the Mo, sponsored by the Iron Cartel.
Needing money for gifts and hoping to learn more about the cartel, they sail toward Oakhaven, bringing along Brother Marshall’s estranged pirate father while dropping Carl off to hide from his Iron Cartel debts. In Oakhaven, Mayor Walrus Throckmorton hires them as festival guards, while Dr. Silas Thorn treats Buxcel's mustache problem.
