Game Seventy-Five: Curse Collectors

 In the Seventy-Fifth foray into Dragonreach, a band of heroes took a job from Guzmondo the Magnificient, a dealer in questionable magical items who had supplied many an adventurer...


Guzmondo had mistakenly sold a shipment of cursed and dangerous items.  He needed them recovered, quickly, lest they kill someone and the Arcane Conclave hold him responsible.

The heroes rushed to a nearby market, where some of the purchasers could be found.  But, unfortunately, several of the cursed items were triggered - summoning hellhounds and several quasits.  And, the cursed, uncontrollable flying carpet was racing across the sky bearing a terrified wizard atop it...


After restoring order, the band scoured the city, tracking down each item (freeing a noble who could not stop dancing in his new magic shoes, stealing a berserking axe from a hulking barbarian, and recovering a "mummy staff" that was offered at the circus as a prize), and finally managing to disable the flying carpet and rescue the terrified wizard. 


Guzmondo's business was thus saved - to the great relief of every adventurer who enjoys his patented "I Can't Believe It's Not Mana" potions.
