Adventurer's Rest, WFE Intro Game 2014

Adventurer’s Rest, WFE Intro Game 2014

I mentioned previously that I would be working at The Wayfinder Experience, and just last week I finished up my first time working there as Story staff, running the game Adventurer’s Rest.  I had a marvelous time, though I was frazzled for the first half of the week and teetered between mild euphoria and continued anxiety for the other half.  I’d do it again in a heartbeat, and I think I’d be…

  Item # 1183

Artifact Title: Amulet of the Mage Hunter

Physical Description: An intricate silver-gold amulet with blue gem inset.

Putative Powers: Provides limitless protection from arcane projectiles (fire, lightning, acid, force, etc., etc.). Must be worn prominently (on outside of clothing) to function.

Assessor’s Notes: Part of three-piece set, in possession of client (see #1184 and # 1185), value assessed as such. No known mental side effects (i.e, hatred of mages).

Suggested Security Measures: Package B-21

  Item # 1353

Artifact Title: Wraith Armor

Physical Description: Bone-white breastplate, appears to only partially exist in material realm, with patches of it irregularly assuming a near- to entirely-transparent aspect (an effect it shares with its wearer).

Putative Powers: Allows entrance to the realm of the spirits, and all the abilities, limitations, and vulnerabilities thereof.

Assessor’s Notes: No known chance of journey being irreversible (absent outside interference).

Suggested Security Measures: Package B-21, Spengler Dongle

  Item #1594

Artifact Title: Armor of the Juggernaut

Physical Description: Robust, spiked full plate, of animalistic (mammalian?) aspect.

Putative Powers: Extremely magical protection (in addition to the mundane protection of well-crafted steel).

Assessor’s Notes: The armor is itself indestructible, although the wearer is merely very difficult to destroy.

Suggested Security Measures: Package B-21

  Item #2100

Artifact Title: Alienist’s Breastplate

Physical Description: Blue, silver, and white chestpiece. Will in flashes and waves vanish and re-appear to sight (while remaining physically present, fortunately for its use in stopping blows).

Assessor’s Notes: Use is tiring.

Suggested Security Measures: Package B-21, Teleport’s Turgid Tack-On

  Item #2143

Artifact Title: Claws of the Beast

Physical Description: Gauntlets formed of the massive claws of some beast, measuring 1-2 feet.

AIG was established in G.Y 234 to provide property and casualty insurance solutions to successful adventurers and their families. Serving clients in 54 realms around the world, we have offices in the Dwarven Holds, the Pits of the Underkingdom, the Elven Forests and the Dukedom of Raitt.

  Our inventive property and casualty insurance products are designed to protect, and minimize threats to, the personal wealth and safety of our quest-enriched clients. With an integrated, holistic approach toward insurance, we strive to reduce the cost and magnitude of risk for our policyholders.

  Whether you collect fine art, elven wine, artifacts, rare tomes or other wondrous items, you can take precautions to protect your treasures from costly, and often irreparable, damage, theft, or dimensional dislocation. AIG's knowledgeable team of risk management specialists can help you preserve the value of your collection and minimize its exposure to conditions that can lead to damage and loss.

  Our experienced staff can handle a wide range of tasks:

Ongoing oversight of a wide range of private collections — weapons, shields, armor, rods, staffs, rings, amulets, cloaks, periapts, phylacteries, potions, oils, apparati, boots, books, cubes, figurines of wondrous power, horns, harps, vestments, etc.

Dungeon inspections and installation supervision

Arranging packing and teleportation of individual pieces using our pre-screened translocator network

Restoration and resurrection oversight

Trap installation coordination

Documentation services, including inventories; condition reports; updates to existing documentation and woodcuts; third-party appraisals; and all other collection tracking needs

Addressing your vulnerabilities:

You can rely on AIG to swiftly settle even the heftiest of claims, but wouldn’t it be better to avoid damage altogether? Our seasoned team can:

Inspect your collections with an eye toward the potential impact of fire, theft, water damage, breakage, renovations, dragon attacks, demonic summonings, etc.

Develop sophisticated pre-disaster planning and post-event action steps for collections in areas prone to natural catastrophes, severe weather conditions, or orcish hordes
