====== A Diplomatic Mission ======

**Date:** Saturday, March 27th, 2010

**Players:** Anton, Daniël, Diricia, Henk, [[rich|Rich]]

===== Guild Announcement =====

The [[lezhar_marshlands|Lezhar Marshlands]] of the mainland are inhabited by many rival tribes of lizard folk. The ruling Issek tribe controls access to the swamplands, which produce a wide variety of plants with beneficial properties.

One of Lockenport's smaller merchant families ([[oltarn_family|the Oltarns]]) have long enjoyed a mutually beneficial relationship with the Issek tribe. In return for metal, and metal-working skills, the Oltarns gain the right to harvest valuable herbs from the swamps. Access to metal has enabled the Issek tribe to retain their dominance, and the Oltarn family have built a profitable business in rare and exotic plants.

Now, however, it seems as if there is political turmoil in the tribes of the lizardfolk. The ruling Issek tribe faces a powerful challenge from the violent and xenophobic Veshk tribe.

The guild has received a commission from the Oltarn family to try to resolve the deteriorating situation, diplomatically if at all possible.

The notice in the Guildhall suggests that this is an assignment suitable for any Irregulars skilled in diplomacy, and also recommends that diplomats be well guarded, due to the dangerous nature of the mission.

There is a reward of 1200 gp to any group able to ensure that the Oltarns can continue harvesting plants from the swamps for the foreseeable future. The Oltarns have agreed to provide an additional allowance of 300 gp for any supplies that the assigned group needs to obtain before leaving Lockenport.

  * Saugren Oltarn said to be pleased with Irregulars' performance.
  * Reported encountering kruthik, bullywugs, crocodiles (one), kenku assassins, human bandits, a fire snake and a scimitar deader (dodged).
  * Made contact with Feathers.
  * Lizardfolk reportedly happy with the guild.

**Declarations:** Amulet of health, spear (nice one, Yragle would have liked that!), lucky charm, gloves of piercing, mask, potion, herbs, 180 gold. Mask assigned to //Antiques and Relics//. Group was asked to protect this personally. Special security arrangements ordered.

**Commendations:** Leetor was recommended by his companions. Clunk's performance also noted.

**Leadership:** Decisions were good. Poor administration. Assistant recommended.

**Further investigations:**
  * [[medrew_braid|Medrew Braid]] (aka Archibald Malkett) link to [[karaden_greshtik|Greshtik]].
  * Group would be prepared to take on further assignments involving the lizardfolk, or in the marshlands.
