The Opening

“A trusted bodyguard begs for help: tonight, someone plans to assassinate Senator Maelin Voss during a public feast. If the senator dies, a fragile peace collapses and the bodyguard's last chance at redemption dies with them.”

— Hook · rescue

Set the Scene

Sir Alwen Marr meets the party in a rain-dark alley behind the treaty hall, helmet under one arm and fear in his eyes. He explains that Senator Maelin Voss will be dead before midnight unless someone finds the killer's route through the city's kitchens, tunnels, or balconies. Alwen cannot face another failure alone, and he asks the party to do what he could not.

Rumours

d4 · table
  1. 01
    The kitchens hired extra runners this week, but none were on the guest list.
  2. 02
    A balcony scaffold was repaired last night by someone who paid in silver, not coin.
  3. 03
    One of the wine casks was delivered sealed, then moved again after dark.
  4. 04
    A witness swears they saw a council seal on a servant's sleeve.
Stakes

If the party fails, the assassination triggers political collapse, a citywide crackdown, and the end of Sir Alwen's redemption. If they succeed, they preserve the peace and expose a larger conspiracy that can fuel the next arc.

Ticking Clock·The assassination is set for the final toast at midnight. Every scene advances the feast toward that moment, and each delay gives the killers more cover and better position.

Background Lore

The border city of Veyrun is celebrating the signing of a fragile peace between rival houses. Someone plans to turn the treaty feast into a killing field. The would-be victim is Senator Maelin Voss, the one politician who can expose the smuggler ring that has been bleeding the city dry and, in doing so, redeem a disgraced former bodyguard who failed to protect a prior patron.

What the World Knows

A former bodyguard hires the party to stop a political assassination at a peace feast. They must find the killer's route, protect the target, and survive the chaos long enough to keep the treaty alive.
