The Opening

“The Spymaster slides a sealed dossier across the scarred table. He needs the Breath of the Archivist from the high-security Sky-Vault. Succeed, and the city secrets are yours: fail, and your names die with you.”

— Hook · heist

Set the Scene

The party meets Kriel Dern in a rain-slicked alleyway beneath the shadow of the great ribs. He stands amidst the steam of a sewer grate, looking more like a ghost than a spymaster.

Rumours

d3 · table
  1. 01
    The Sky-Vault of House Valerius is built into the uppermost rib of the city, and the wind alone is enough to kill a man.
  2. 02
    Kriel Dern has been looking for a crew that can handle 'delicate' artifacts, but he has a habit of burning his bridges.
  3. 03
    The vault contains a sphere called the Archivist's Breath that glows whenever a lie is spoken within its presence.
Stakes

If the party is caught, they will be branded as heretics and hung from the city's highest ribs. If they succeed but lose the item, House Valerius will send relentless assassins after them.

Ticking Clock·The Celestial Alignment: In four hours, the vault's magical shielding will refresh, making any exit impossible until the next moon cycle.

Background Lore

House Valerius is a declining noble line in God's Nest that maintains its status through the possession of ancient, holy artifacts. The Archivist's Breath is their most prized possession, said to be a literal gust of air from a dead god.

What the World Knows

Kriel wants the party to steal the Archivist's Breath to humble House Valerius and test the party's skills for a place in his network.
