Purifying the Wells

Clerics in the Silver Tier noticed black water contaminating the supply to the Tier and requested a team to investigate. The head cleric shows you a medallion and says you have add it to the current system to boost the power of a purify spell. He mentions there are guards down there that can place it for you. A little girl leads you to the main entrance and warns that she isn't allowed in as normal because the traps have been activated.

The party splits ways when some can cross the water and others can't. Two battles began and they realize one is a guard and the other is protecting someone or something. They fight off several water elementals and the creature that was creating water to flood black water through the water system.

They continue forward and manage to get through the traps guarding the main room fairly easily. They meet the main guard, a rusalka there and she explains that the medallion won't do any good because the initial one is missing, when they mention the creature is dead she disables all the traps. They go back to the creature's body and find it there. Realizing that no one grabbed the other medallion they go back and get it as well as a cleric. Nothing seems to happen for a while, then the water begins to lighten slowly. The rusalka says if you come back she'll have rewards for you.

Influence
Influence goes to Gio and Nick

When you return to the waterway, the rusalka has four charm bands. Each one has three slots for charms and each currently has one charm in it.

Gio - Your charm looks like a fish and gives you knowledge planes as a class skill

Nick - 3x a day, if you miss on your first attack of a full attack your charm (appears like a hammer) permits you to make your second attack at full BAB

John - Your charm looks like a potion bottle. It permits you to use a potion as a swift action 1x a day

Sarah - Your charm appears like a wolf. 2x a day you can use it to roll 2 dice for a save for your mount (declared ahead of time) and take the better roll provided you pass the save.

Apologies for the delay.

Escort through the Forest

The guard from the previous mission was requested to go to a meeting regarding New Hope's water supply and possibilities for clean water. She was granted a temporary pardon for previous transgressions, however it had been heard not everyone was happy with this.

They faced warnings and tests from some of the fey, and had to fight off numerous plants that had grown over the pathway, as well as drawing the guard's sister over with a wall of fire.

They toss the last plant down a spiked pit, and shove a fire elemental in after and continue on to the way tree, where her final escort awaited.

Several weeks later you receive a summons back to the way tree, where the escort still looks rather hurt and hands you all a black letter, thanking you for your efforts and with black bands each holding one charm.

Everyone Receives a black charm band, capable of holding up to three charms and the first slot filled. The charm appears to be a broken chain and allows you to break free of a grapple (not pinned), once a day as a move action.

Jeremie and Lovecraft receive one influence each.

Body in the Underwater City

Letters are whisked into your hands as you're about to depart for another mission. It details how to get to the person of interest where you'll receive more information about your mission. You follow a path through a forest and meet up with a kapre guarding a way tree. He requests you to retrieve the body of the waterway guard, and if possible to find the source for the magic items previous parties were given.

He mentions they've been able to narrow down her general area and gives the party amulets and says they'll help in the water and the party found themselves at the edge of an ocean. They walked along the shore and soon saw a city in the distance. As they got further they could see that a fair part of the city seemed in relatively good condition, a section mixed and a fair bit in ruins. There are two vortexes that lead into the city directly. The party discovered that alarms would be set off if they didn't enter via a vortex.

They dropped in and found the entrance way guarded as well, and were pointed in the direction of the middle area in case the constructs would attack, and it was the last place that their person was found. As they entered the semi-ruined area they see bodies strewn around. Jim tried to attach an arm to move, and realized that there was something odd about the bodies as well when he couldn't move the arm as normal.

Partway they decided to try and cross to the church on the non-ruined side and were blocked by an unknown angelic creature. They request entrance to the church to try and find their target, and are declined at the moment. The creature sends another person off to find a higher ranking cleric, and will permit entrance with their permission and sends the party to deal with some undead in the meanwhile.

After dealing with some of the undead, they notice they were being followed and tried to sneak up on them and failed. The cleric asks more questions and they find out the body of their target is in the church, and she would be willing to take some of the party at least. They continue to one last fight against undead and the cleric relents to take them all, with the warning any hostile actions would provoke hostile actions.

The cleric transports them into an odd room in the church, with a symbol on the ground no one could recognize. Jim finally notices that both clerics in the party are displaying religious symbols and attempts to attack. He gets knocked unconscious and tied up. The cleric guides them through the church, where they notice a large amount of clerics and angelic beings. They learn that the city used to be a focus for spellcasters and learning until a cleric dove too deep into dark arts and they've been fighting to protect their area since.

The body is conferred to the rest of the party and they're teleported back on top of the kapre, and realize they didn't ask about the source of the items, although they were mentioned in passing by the cleric.

The cleric seemed oddly interested where the party came from, and says they might be able to return if they desire.

Several weeks later letters arrive at the guild, two of them feel extremely holy (given to Daryl and Four) and others only slightly so. They contain a note to each person, as well as a white charm band for those without one.

James Your note commends your behaviour within the church and thanks you for your civility.

Melissa Your note includes another piece of paper that grants you passage along with one other to the Sacred Sanctuary. The note says you're welcome to reenter the city at will and they hope you will help their cause in the future.

Alex - Your note politely thanks you for your visit and help, and kindly requests you not enter the Sanctuary again.

David - Your note thanks you for your efforts and help in restraining your party member.

Each of your notes adds a further apology for the lack of diversity of the charms enclosed. The charm appears like an entwined circle.

Once an adventure you can activate the charm. Upon doing so roll a d100

0-50 - The charm fizzles and your band goes black for the adventure, preventing activation of any other charms in the bracelet. The band returns to normal with 24hr exposure to sunlight. The charm can't be reactivated in the adventure.
51-75 - You gain true seeing for one fight
76-80 - Your weapon becomes good aligned for one fight
81-90 - Heal 6d6
91-95 - Gain SR 25 against the next spell that would hit you.
96-100 - You become enveloped in an artificial Holy Aura (+4 AC, +4 to saves, SR 25, protection from evil. It does not cause evil creatures to be blinded)
