Philomena Snapdragon, due to her player not being there last week, finished her first week of Downtime, Starting Week 1 of 8 for the Telekinetic Feat.
---
The party continued their interviews for their business, starting with Arijen Applebraid, the Halfling applicant for the job of maid. Her inexperience and nervousness ultimately resulted in the party not hiring her, and instead taking Crysta Damanti, a Ree-Mai woman who just moved to the city with her husband Rimar and their baby girl, as well as Furnando, a life-sized Cat-Thrro resembling a Tabaxi, who has experience as a butler to a wealthy family.
Next up, the party interviewed the potential applicants for servers, Daniela Costa-López, a young human woman with a dream of becoming an actor at the operas in the New Zakri Theatre (though the party had to soon realize that her singing wasn't too great), Chawetul, a Thri-Kreen with not many people-skills and psychic speech, and Jenny Deer, an average human (?) woman with absolutely no discerning feature, but a very nervous personality. Further investigation revealed that she's actually a Mock in disguise, who just wants to make friends with people, because she finds them fascinating. The party ultimately decided to hire "Jenny", after Kilbi Leaftooth proposed that she could teach them to be a server.
Last but not least, the potential guards were interviewed; Punchy, a friendly life-sized Thrro Kangaroo with boxing gloves well-versed in the Training Dummy art of fighting, Rhaia Spotwind, a Macaw/Tiger Feathren who favors the Steel Hawk fighting style, and Netis Tinbrander, a Deep Gnome / Svirfneblin Eldritch Knight who looked suspiciously at Kilbi. In order to test their skills, Zora went against Punchy, and lost due to the friendly oaf's big bearhug. Dareth Lion'el went against Rhaia and also lost, but decided that her fighting style takes up much space and might be impractical indoors. Volk Lesnoy meanwhile went against Netis, and was able to defeat Netis, tanking many of her hits. The party decided on hiring Punchy, being impressed by his friendly personality and fighting power.
And with that, the Party finally settled into their new home, as their second week off started.
Philomena finished week 2/8 of her training for the Telekinetic feat.
Dareth attempted to search for a trainer for the feat "Orkish Fury", but wasn't able to find anyone. However, he still decided to take Mikhail out on a third date (which will be followed up upon next week).
Sooty finished week 4 of 6 for his War Caster-training.
Zora finished her week 2 of 9 for the Mobile Feat.
Volk helped Esme O'Doherty out at her chapel at the Liwilai Adventurer's Guild headquarters, earning a favor from her in the future.
Mikhail finished week 3 of 9 for his own War-Caster training.
SESSION END.
