Part 1 - Cebo, considered by many as one of the greatest thieves who ever lived-some say even rivals that of Ricardo and the like, was reported in a bar fight with Manticore at the Cat's Lair Inn in Britannia last night. Manticore is a well known collector of fine things accuses Cebo of stealing a significant amount of items from his treasure horde. Cebo denies the allegation of course but when Manticore showed him the Cebo Shroud that was left at the scene of the heist Cebo panicked and began to run out of the bar. Right before Cebo made his way out of the Tavern, Manticore threw a Messana cream pie filled with blackrocks and hit Cebo in the back of the head. Manticore was tossed in the local jail for the night waiting for trial for the assault and Cebo was taken to the local Healers. This happened around 10 PM. At midnight when the graveyard shift healer began to make his rounds he noticed Cebo was gone.... Story continues
Part II - Cebo woke up with a bump on the back of his head, dazed not knowing where he was at (he did noticed the smell of banana cream pie around him). He looked out the window and saw the position of the moon and figured it was around 11:30-11:45 PM. Not knowing his surroundings he did instinctively what he had learned back at the thieves guild through years of training which was to go into stealth mode. He crept around the bed, the tables, the chests, and noticed wash basins and bandages lying all over the place and small beds laid out all over the room. He quickly realized he was at a Healer's place. He thought to himself gaging from the knot on the back of his head that someone had brought him here. But he wasn't going to stick around to find out why so he did what he do best and stealth-ed out of the building through the open windows.
Meanwhile, the local judge set the bail for Manticore in the amount of 100gp which he gladly paid and went home for the night. Story continues.....
Part III - As Cebo successfully snuck out of the Healer’s place he instinctively went to one of his hideouts. When he arrived, to his surprise, he found the room filled with powerful magical armors, weapons, and other relics and even some famous collectibles. Not knowing how it got there he became nervous about it thinking his hideout has been compromised (What Cebo didn’t realize was that the hit on the back of his head bruised part of his cerebrum – the part that controls memories). So, he thought to himself, well, I’ll show this person whoever he/she is trying to use my hideout as a storage. He then proceeds to take everything and left the place. He looked at his Balron-skinned calendar and mark on July the 11th (Sunday) he will take care of these items in the region of Baja.
Part IV - As Cebo sat in his den thinking out loud what he was going to do with this new found loot what he didn't realize was that during the bar fight with Manticore, Manti slipped a communication crystal in Cebo's pocket (sort of the advanced tracking device for back in those days). This was the newer model no bigger than a fingernail and it was magically bound to any cloth it attaches itself to on contact. Cebo decided to put a marker down in the form of a book spread throughout Trammel cities, dungeons, and wilderness, and later go back and bury an item or two at each location. As he was saying this to himself, Manticore carefully listened far away.
Part V - As Cebo was going through the loot he found a box. This was no ordinary box, and it had a letter inscribed on it that said "Z". He proceed in opening it and found 5 beautiful objects. He knew right away this was expensive. He said to himself, hmm this requires a special place and I think I know just the place. He asked his buddy Slick the Lizard-man, Bobo the Ogre, and Nash the Executioner where he should hide them, and they all agreed on one place. This place is at the bottom where their kind lived (a large square room) and to help out they will also summon some flying friends.
So, Manticore asks those who are willing to search these areas starting 9 AM today and if you found a book that looked like it had a code in it please bring it to him for a gift in return. The books will have a roughly 2:30 - 2:45 decay timer on it so that is your window period
