"Harv, Eldrith, you'll be traveling together." She pauses to allow for the chuckles to ripple through the room. "You'll be leaving within the week. Eldrith, the necromancer depopulation is going to create a bit of chaos, as all their property and servants are dispersed amongst surviving relatives, or more likely turned over to the locals powers." Necromancers often seemed to have no family, a disturbing trend for the dark mages. "I want you to visit the smaller cities and larger towns, securing as much excess slave stock as you can. Four of the ladies will be going with you. Keep them available to the local lords at all times. I want their eyes elsewhere than on the ledgers of the slavers."
With a nod from Auntie, the little gnome hands Eldrith a well aged map and a small leather bound book that's in tatters. "Word will eventually spread, no matter how hard we try, of an elf purchasing a large number of slaves. If anyone puts you to a serious question, these are your cover. Documents passed down your family line for generations, indicting a small family manor in the Old Kingdom that was buried by Elementals during the Elf-Dwarf war. Now that you've earned your fortune, you're gathering a work force to help excavate the grounds. To that end, Kore and the field teams will be at work in the Old Kingdom. He'll send agents into Timiro to collect your slaves from time to time. Send those who are fit for hard labor. You know what to do with the rest."
With a slight sigh, she turns towards Harv. "Now Harv, Ogres are common slave stock in the Timiro Kingdom. I need you to control that temper of yours, when dealing with the humans. Eldrith is going to be sticking his neck out quite far, and I need someone there who can kill anything that tries to kill him. If you can't handle that, I'll send someone else, but then you'll be spending the next few years in the mountains with Kore, sleeping on the dirt, far, far away from any decent city. Can you keep yourself under control?" Of course, Auntie would be sending a mountain of drugs, plus Eldrith's own special artifacts, to keep the Berserker in line. It never paid to be too cautious with Harv.

That is because she died!
Honestly, was just going to work her return in to come after the arrival of the Emperor (I didn't want to give away all the surprises to you in advance). Will get it out to you tomorrow. |

"Not Ok. Apparently, Auntie has a problem with the wholesale rape and enslavement of Timiro at the hands of foreign invaders, and prefers the wholesale rape and enslavement of Timiro at the hands of its slaves."
"I suppose that once we acquire some more stock, we should put them to work, as well as our fine ladies. If this goes right, we're going to have a large number of slaves, and not all of them will be beast races... and I imagine that, even amongst those, there will be lords who wish to deprave themselves with orcs and the like."

Names will go out tonight, you'll almost certainly be getting conventional human women, but I may give you one of the exotic races, which is why I'm being non committal. They will definitely have specialties.
Officially it isn't allowed, unofficially it depends on how depraved the local ruler of the town is. Most of them aren't that far gone, unless it is a slave. Laws for slave rights are piss poor in Timiro. Though I need to reverify if that's just for the beast races, or if that includes the fair races (I believe the fair races get a better deal than the beast races, when it comes to crimes against them and their overall rights). |

Ogres obviously aren't heavy labor. Why else would they always be making time with human women? |

an Ogre womans parts is built of muscle powerful enough to snap the neck of a full grown ox and ringed with teeth, even Bobba Fett isn't escaping that one. Would you want to put your peeps in there? _________________ So's Your Face! |

In all seriousness, one of the more exotic women is a Lizard Woman. Takes all kinds of kink to make the world go round. Would you want to request her? |

Lizard man is too far out there; if we're keeping a stable of four, we'd need things in the realms of more accessible kinks... while we may come across a herpephiliac, it's far more likely that we'll run into a dude who likes to face-fuck gnomes or be cornholioed by an ogre. _________________ Dr. Otto Octavius: I will not die a monster. |

Marrow, do I know... or can I learn from Auntie or the Harlot's sources... where Necromancers are likely to be found in Timiro? Places where I can be reasonably sure to get a number of slaves to start with? _________________ Dr. Otto Octavius: I will not die a monster. |

You'll be given a list of the ten primary cities to visit, as well as a few smaller towns of note. Once I make it. ((I confess, I've only ever read through the first edition of Old Ones, which obviously has no Necromancers in it, so I'm having to be creative. Just bought the second edition for the updates Old One Stats n 2nd edition versions of the classes, never really read through the updated towns [if they're even really updated])). |

Considering one still mentions half-orcs (Truth!), I don't think they were updated. _________________ Dr. Otto Octavius: I will not die a monster. |

ok, I'll just spin it up out of whole cloth then. I've already got the basic region I want you to hit in my head, I just need town names to go with it. |

Our four whores:
1) Camilla, assuming she's relatively "tame" (i.e. we don't have to look out for her running away). A spare sword if we need it. If we have to worry about her running away, Gibby or Nest... I want an exotic, and these will be the easiest to keep track of.
2) Ginger, Bubbles, or Diana. I want a real beauty.
3) Krista. Another sword, if necessary, and someone to dominate nobles who like that sort of thing. If she's with another team, Mirabelle, then Jeanette, and lastly White Apple. Nothing against White Apple, but if the lords want to screw an orc, they've got options.
4) I'd want Wolf, but since he's a money-maker for Auntie, and likely has his own band of followers in the West, Harlot is going to have to take the man-roles. We don't have the people to keep an eye on any of the other men. I'd love to have one of Athelisia, Aziria, or Ireda... class would be great, especially for jobs that are as much "escort" as "prostitute". If their contracts won't let them leave, then another of my back-ups... Ginger, Bubbles, or Diana is preferable.
So, ranked in order of preference:
1) Camilla, if she is tractable. Gibby or Nest, if not.
2) Ginger, Bubbles, or Diana. I don't care which.
3) Krista or Mirabelle
4) Athelisia, Aziria, or Ireda
5) If any of these can't be filled, additionals from Krista, Mirabelle, Ginger, Bubbles, Diana, Athelisia, Aziria or Ireda.
The Harlot will also serve when we need a male or an additional female (like a submissive, or a beastophile); the men Auntie has are either unreliable or so lucrative that taking them will be counter-productive.
I need to learn Heal Wounds. I'll see if I can, given I'm now level 4, and not yet updated. _________________ Dr. Otto Octavius: I will not die a monster. |
