Quasi Dungeons and Dragons

No, its both of roberts weapons, and grahfs. Don't need or want any of my weaps silvered.

(I'll just note that Grahf can make his weapon magical via Channel Divinity and things that are vulnerable to silver are usually vulnerable to magical weapons too)

(you and grahf go back to the general store and purchase a longsword each to use while they're being silvered. Its fine, we can afford it, LS's are i think 15 or 25 gold apiece. 

While you guys do that, I (and anyone else who wants to come along excluding you and grahf cause swords) can go to the Burgomasters and pay Ireena a visit. We can meet up at the gate where Yev and Szol will be too. Then head to the winery 👍.)

(yeah, but what if he already uses it and we're in a fight after that it's needed again?)

(True, but it's up to Grahf)

Sorry, i got a bit overzealous. He's right that its up to you guys. 

(roger, I'll do what Snerp said)

(Ok, Roberts hands over his two swords and Grahf hands over his (Unless Earth says otherwise later)).

The group then heads to the Burgomaster's mansion. Piles and piles of stick now occlude the front of the house, with a small cap allowing entrance.

(we need to get Grahf and Roberts temp replacement weapons first. Can we just keep going from here but make official that the general store was visited and two longswords(one each for Grahf and Roberts) was purchased?)

Snerp walks into the mansion and looks around for the same lady who was coordinating people entering last time he was here.

(Roger)

There is less activity now that most of the wood has been gathered, but a snooty butler does come to the door and takes the group to the waiting room where they were before. After not long, the Baron arrives with two huge, black mastiffs at his side. They are eye-to-eye with Snerp and give him copius licks to the top of his gnomey head.

Vargas: I am Baron Vargas Vallakovich. Who has the honor of meeting me? A circus act for our festival tomorrow?

(I prefer the indirect approach, but since Snerp has talked with him before.....we can tell him what we found at the coffin makers (body, writing) but not mention the vampires yet, though if they are after him, enemy of my enemy is my friend....I'm just not sure how much we can trust this guy)

(with my natural distrust I will attempt to use my perception and if anyone has a spell that enhances skills this would be a good time for that as well)

(I assume you mean insight)

Vargas listen and furrows his brow. This is indeed a distressing tale. Almost unbelievable. I assure that this town is quite safe and there are no murders going around gutting poor coffin-makers. Now I'll ask you not go spreading such rumors and ruining the natural joy of our town.

Snerp expectantly looks over at Roberts, as if to say, "hey, start saying more crazy stuff, we don't need to get taken as prisoners and put into the stocks you dope"

Vargas narrows his eyes. Feature act. Feature act. Oh yes! The banjo playing halfling, yes? Of course, pleasure to have you back in my abode. What's this about a guest? We have no guest? Who is this Ireena?

(yeah was playing pathfinder kingmaker, getting my skills mixed up)

(since you've meet him before, any noticable differences, like he's been bit by a vampire, paler, thinner, or similar peculiarity?)

(insight check to see if Snerp notices anything different like Roberts brought up?)

(Are there elections going on in the DnD world?)

(Devils vs. Demons)

Vargas thinks and thinks. Oh! The Burgomasters daughter! Yes. Very dreary girl. She left. Went back to Barovia.

[Roberts Insight check (advantage): d20 (4, 11) + 5 = 16]

Vargas doesn't appear any different and doesn't appear to be hiding anything. He appears to have legitimately forgot about Ireena, perhaps considering it a subject beneath his attention.

(Pretty sure Ireena = captured is confirmed.)

Vargas: Young dwarf, I am a busy man. Lots of people come and go. Irene was here one day and gone the next. Is that all you came here to do? Waste my time about bogey men and whining girls?

(we could check on the priest and bones, tell him the situation and see if he might have an idea where the vampires could be hiding out until it's time for their attack?)(maybe Snerp can locate the woman he spoke to when they were collecting the sticks, the first time he was here, I think she knew about  Ireena)

@buddamoose @thedredpriateroberts @kindertina @earth 

One things for sure. If ireena was captured this fool wouldn't know any different.

(I had a secondary idea, that we just use him as vampire bait and hope he and his guards can occupy the vampires, or be their primary targets while we attack from the back)

(You guys heading to the church? Anything else to ask of or discuss with the illustrious Vargas?)

(is the church pretty close?  if it makes little time difference I will go there and relay the events of the coffin maker's shop, vampire plan etc and see if there's a place they maybe hiding out during the day)
