Answer 81A
Adventure Seed- Lord Pembury's Protectors
Following from
this post, where we discover that The Kingfisher is onto the dastardly strike-breaking plot of Lord Archibald Paterson, of Pembury Estate...
The PCs are a group of police or military types with government ties, who are summoned by Lord Pembury. He reports that he feels his life is threatened, as a number of his interests have recently suffered major setbacks. Not least of these was an attack on a ship of his after leaving the Dutch port of Middelburg, the captain being mysteriously harpooned on the deck of the bridge from out of the night sky by an unseen attacker.
The PCs therefore must identify the attack as a daring and ambitious expansion of the Kingfisher's MO and standard hunting grounds, then try to track them down. In the meantime, they may become aware of Lord Pembury's own iniquities and end up investigating his crimes and conspiracies. At some point, they may have to decide whose side they are on- the corrupt aristocracy, a bloodthirsty vigilante, or that of law and justice?
