Daybreak Academy

Around Campus

Ren is typically... not chipper, per se, but at least reasonably alert and with it. Recently though, he seems like he's been a bit tired. It's not super noticable but he's definitely taking a few naps in class from time to time which he wouldn't usually do - he's still strategic enough to do it in classes with teachers he can more or less get away with it, but it's unusual.

Those who know him, especially those in his dorms, will note he's been out fairly often during the night. Those who've investigated will find he's been taking helicopters down to Lyon on the regular, usually after class and usually not getting back until fairly late at night. It's been fairly regular for the last few weeks at the very least.

Lyon - the Outlands



Those who find themselves in Lyon, especially those within the Outlands in Lyon will find a young man prowling the area in a trenchcoat, staking out an old-style Chateau that's sprouted up in the middle of what would be the city core. The Chateau is absolutely crawling with strange, generally hostile Outland creatures that appear as twisted vestiges of masked humans in medieval court attire that, when unmasked, morph into monsters. He moves through the Chateau stealthily, taking down choice targets with quick assassinations and casing the entire area.

Back on Campus in a few weeks



Daybreak generally gets local news from Lyon, and reports will start to filter that a local politician had been incarcerating disadvantaged locals on trumped up charges and pressing them into unpaid labor, which he would sell to companies for a tidy profit that he then embezzled. For whatever reason, he's appeared on TV recently, confessing to his crimes and providing ample documentation to support it. His arrest is a huge scandal, which is making the rounds on TV.

In surely completely unrelated news, Ren is now back on campus more regularly, coming back to the dorms on time (except for when he's working at the bar) and not falling asleep in class anymore.

Totally unrelated, I'm sure.

BGM: Beneath the Mask

Visitors to the Hog's Swill Tavern might notice a youthful new bartender behind the counter working some nights. Calm and collected, he takes orders without complaint and while he's still a bit slow with some of the more complex drinks, he seems to have a knack for mixing drinks. Best of all, he's happy to listen as you unload your problems and concerns, offering the best advice he can without judgement or complaint. If you're looking for some cheap, crappy American beer and someone to hear your woes, you've come to the right place.
