The group, being professionals, quickly makes progress.
@Serival Drumm 's ID's come in handy almost immediately as a particularly gruff looking patrolman, breath stinking of tequila, stops Rio while he is searching for the markings. He gives the ID a good hard stare and after what seems like forever, he lets him go.
To an Undead Slayer, hunting down vampires is second nature.
@Buffy Laskaris , being familiar with these creatures and their...appetites, scours the dredges of towns, finds a few obvious hunting grounds and after eavesdropping on some of the locals, hears quite a bit about "missing people".
@Scalawag makes progress with some good music and a few beers, the locals filling him in on particularly strange stories from the city, helping inform him of their whereabouts.
@Xiang and
@Rio Vaughan work well together, Xiang giving chase at the runner that
@Rio Vaughan flushes out for him. He follows him to a hut, does some careful lookout work, and heads back.
Once
@Jesse (Graunk) gets wind of this, he heads that way only to be encountered by a gang of toughs, whose breath smells like blood to Graunk's heightened sense. There is a tense moment but eventually they pass by, Graunk knowing it's better to get intel on them at this point rather than engage.
The group has gathered a decent amount of information in a short time. They have picked out a few places with the occult markings, have confirmed the location of some kind of suspicious activity with the hut, and Graunk has confirmed that thralls roam the city streets. That being said, the undead are starting to get somewhat suspicious as these strangers to town have already noticed things that the city's own residents have never even suspected.
Move on to Tier 2.
