Since last week's list of personal rumors went so well, we take another stab at it for week 44 of The Rumor Mill. This time we look at dealing with devil attacks, fey creatures taking over tabaxi bodies, selling drugs, stealing things, smuggling, scamming, and obsessive rule following. It seems like this group of stories is somewhat less law-abiding than the previous list of rumors.
So let's explore another list of rumors involving specific people in Fellport and their current business.
| 1d8 | Rumor | True? |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Over at Highwater House, Aurelia has a stick up her ass about following the rules. | Yes1 |
| 2 | Silas Greenbough has a talent for theft. He works with a thieves' guild, right? | Maybe2 |
| 3 | Braggi the Returned sells recreational drugs at The Bounty Below. | No3 |
| 4 | A fey creature inhabits half of Vellix's body, but she learned to curse on her own. | Maybe4 |
| 5 | Adam Dreggar spent years as a mercenary burglar before buying a rigged casino. | Yes5 |
| 6 | Karanog Dawngold spends all his time at the Steinkellar, dealing with smugglers. | Maybe6 |
| 7 | A band of devils caused the burn scars that Wyatt bears all these years later. | No7 |
| 8 | Penny Portico has many aliases and a long history of scamming rich people. | Yes8 |
1 - She doles out fair punishments for people who break the rules, and thus she keeps Highwater House running smoothly.
2 - He doesn't work for any thieves' guild overtly, but he runs Water's Edge Warehouses for unknown (and criminal?) bosses.
3 - Reefer Oil is the only drug he offers to people he thinks could handle the trip, made from the bile of reefers (aquatic piercers).
4 - Tabaxi like Vellix can naturally be born as chimeras, although something from the Feywild did reach out to her in her youth.
5 - Adam bought the closed Flounder of Fortune and reopened it 4 years ago as a bar and brewery named Dragonskull Brewing.
6 - His father Baranor made piles of money from smugglers, but Karanog prefers making his fortune by booking performances.
7 - A forest fire caused his scars, as he kept running back into the inferno to rescue more animals in his youthful exuberance.
8 - She's gone straight since she came to Fellport 2 years ago, subtly casting augury to help her clients determine future plans.
