D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

"If you want to see what they can do just swing by the shrine. We still haven't buried the last speaker as we are waiting till after the new moon. You'll be able to see what a the giant is capable of." The dwarf started as he got up from his seat and headed for the exit. He pulled up his hood and scarf and set out into the mid-dat twilight. The gnome left just after the dwarf, bundling up in his thick wool cloak. The two humans were passively watching the three that were gathering near the window.

Another history check, huh? Well, surely it can't get worse than a 5.

Intelligence (History) Check: (1d20+0=4)

It seems I stand corrected.

@The Large Dumbo

With that even with having lived in Icewind Dale, you know you probably should have payed better attention when the elders in the tribe discussed such things.

The barkeep looked over the three of them. "If you can bring back the mead casks, or whatever is left of them, we can get you lodging, meals and drink for the next tenday. That's about all we can afford since we have lost those casks."

(For a point of clarification, a tenday is a week in the forgotten realms.)

Kendra's history check: 9.

@Alarielle

Aside from what you've heard now you don't know much about verbeeg.

D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

For those who would like to, roll a history check. This is to see what you know of verbeeg.

D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

Yes it would be. And with a 5, well you've heard rumors that such ruins may exist. Just not sure where.

D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

The dwarf nearly spit out his ale while trying to contain his laughter. "Let me guess you would save us from the Verbeeg? The man's laughter was now coming through the mead hall. "If I heard right you said you were robbed by three kolbolds and chased through the gloom. Sure the town would pay for the demise of the giant and return of the mead casks. But I don't think you stand half a chance against a baby trout little man, let alone a verbeeg."

Whoops forgot that...

@HEAVY METAL

2 silver and 5 copper.

"There's a number of the things out there in the Redhawks. As for catching the biggest fish ever good luck. Rumor has it someone already caught Ol' Bitey. That trout has pulled several people under. Be off unless you're buying the next round. The dwarf waves the halfling away.

"Please excuse my companion his brother left a day or so ago to pursue the giant that stole some of the towns mead. None of those who have gone out have returned yet. Enjoy your fishing." The gnome finishes his tankard and continues to talk with the dwarf. "I am beginning to wonder if the Frostmadien is behind all this. Someone must have lite a fire last new moon and we didn't know about it.

"Pah, I don't think she really cares what we do. What would a God of winter care for the plight of mortals. If you ask me it was just a giant who wanted a drink."

D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

"Right then, be right back with your bowel."

The woman stepped back to grab another bowel and to fill another tankard with mead. "Three silver please."

There are three open tables, one close to the door, another half way to the hearth, and one against the left wall near a small window. The one halfway to the hearth is near the half-elven woman, the next to the door has no one near it, and the table by the window is close the two humans.
