<strong><span class="bbc_u">Morgrave University, University District, Upper Menthis Plateau </span><br/>Zor, the 5th of Zarantyr (Mid-Winter), Year 998</strong><br/><br/>(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/4/45/1270706765152.jpg)<br/><br/>It is a cloudy night in the City of Towers, with a storm threatening. The winter has put a chill in the air, but thankfully Sharn’s tropical environment precludes any danger of snow like in the north. Scholars and students bustle too and fro, seeking shelter before the inevitable thunder and lightning begins. Outside the grand arches of the university entrance, it is easy to spot the man you are looking for. Captain Gerald ir’Tosk, a neatly trimmed dwarven man you met during the interview process.<br/><br/>(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/c/ca/Dwarfpimp.jpg)<br/><br/>Flanking him are two others, a female shifter and a male half-orc.<br/><br/>(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/b/bf/Shifter.jpeg)<br/><br/>(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/7/78/Url-1.jpg)<br/><br/>“Welcome! It is most excellent that we are finally able to get this team put together. I am Gerald ir'Tosk, I'll be your teams liaison to the rest of the Watch. These are my associates, Sunshadow, a behavioural profiler,” he says, gesturing to the shifter, “and Dr. Gash Mak'ow, who is an expert on planer magics. Both will be working closely with me to help you crack the cases that no one else can. It is a pleasure to officially met you and I am looking forwards together.”<br/><br/>“We have a number of things to talk about this evening. Obviously, this is a bit of a get to know you session, so if you have any questions for the three of us or each other, this is the time to get it out of the way. I believe Lady Canal, our administrative clerk at the Central Ciadel, has done of the great favour of identifying several decent towers for you can use as a home base. We’ll need to review and pick which of the residences you’ll be using, so that that payroll can add it to our accounts. We also have our main attraction tonight; a series of presentations on the history of the city. The keynote speaker is Bonal Geldam, Senior Research Fellow of the the Pre-Galifarian History department. I believe he will be speaking on the War of the Mark and the history of the Dragonmarked Houses prior to the Unification Wars. It promises to be quite scintillating. I have a reserved box for us, as soon as everyone arrives, we will head in.”
