Blood Sample (Session 2)

• While Gyr received cryptic instructions for an apparent job through a disturbing dream, the rest of the crew was given a large sack of coin by a strange visitor to their lair - a creepy fellow in a ragged bowler, lips held closed with a series of small rings.

• Gyr did not share the origins of the job, but apparently the Queer had been hired by an unknown benefactor to smuggle a sample of a here-to-fore unknown grade of Leviathan oil from a freighter newly-docked from the Skovland refineries.

• The freighter was owned by the Bowmore family and the unique oil was marked with a particular yellow symbol.

• They party took a two-pronged approach, with SBD and Parva the Strange creating a distraction while the rest of the team used a gondola and grappling line to sneak aboard.

• The distraction consisted of Parva summoning a thunderstorm and SBD sabotaging the dock - causing a cargo wagon, it's draft goats and driver to crash through into the water below. Things went from bad to worse when Parva over-taxed himself and SBD was attacked by another drover.

• Cricket and Flews made it aboard at the cost of tossing a guard overboard and quickly found their way into the hold. Gyr causally used the gondola pole to hold the struggling guard underwater until he stopped...struggling.
