Act 1 - Chapter 1 - The Wereboar, and the Ultimatum - Report

General Summary

The Hunters' first mission, Svati reported that one of the townsfolk, a young trapper named Rolf, had gone missing recently, and much of the wild game in the area had been savaged to the point of being unusable. The Hunters, asking around town, following Svati into the wilderness, and putting together the clues at sites of interest, learned that the threat was Rolf himself, and that he was apparently a Wereboar going through his first transformations.   While deciding what to do, they followed Rolfs trail to an old abandoned cabin in the woods, one that he had apparently been using for shelter since going into hiding. They debated their choices and potential strategies, realizing tonight was the night of a full moon, and that their time was limited. Rolf would not bee in control of himself once night had taken over.   Gus remembered that Wolfsbane could be of use, and that there was a spot nearby that could have some. Tyrus set off quickly to obtain it, while Finbor and Poppey worked to prepare the cabin in case of a fight. Tiran prepared himself to negotiate with the Wereboar, and protect and heal the group as needed.   With everyone regrouped and prepared, Rolf soon approached, uninterested in removing his "curse", ready to fight with the group of Hunters if necessary. But all was resolved without bloodshed. Through tense and heartfelt arguments, promises were made, and the group helped Rolf make it through the night without harming anyone. Rolf would was allowed to keep to himself, and the village would remain peaceful as long as he did no harm to them. All was well, and the Hunters career was off to a promising start.
