| Blosk |
This is a rather complicated town. There are lots of intrigues and skulduggery going on here.
| Person | Function | Items, Quests and Notes | Rating |
| Vicky | Mayor | Tells you that being an innkeeper was easier than being a mayor. She gives you the mission to find a spy who is at large in the town and tells you to aks Bruce about it. | Quest |
| Bruce | Assistant | He calls himself "master archer and assistant to her ladyship". He tells you that there is a spy in the town and that you should ask Mondrian to help you find him, knowing full well that Mondrian would never tell, even if he knew. | |
| Oliver | Trainer | Does not have anything useful to say. | |
| Saffron | Sage | She wants to become a mage and go to Patrick's Tower. She makes livelihood by identifying items. | 15 coins |
| Mondrian | Priest | This "Priest of Secrets" is something like a confessor. | |
| Phaedra | Child | Justin's daughter wants to become an adventurer. | |
| Patsy | Innkeeper | Offers rooms and grog | |
| Allisandre | Guest | This young lady is a flutist who is staying with Lieth about whom she is getting worried. She thinks he is in danger because he is trying to find the spy. | |
| Eddy |
Shopkeeper (Rations) |
Patsy's husband sells rations. | expensive |
| Leith | Apprentice | He is wandering around the town if you have got the mission to find the spy he will give you a bit of help. | |
| Justin | Priest | The Priest of the Temple of the flying Spirit is never to be found in his temple. If you are patient enough, you will find him wandering around somewhere in the city. He gives you the quest to find Grahk's Peninsular (Reward: 1 Find Herbs and 10 xp). | Quest |
| Bartholomew | Mage | This rather truculent man will only give you some useful information when somebody has told you to ask him about Thompson. There is a Tome in his rooms that teaches Move Mountains Level 1. | |
| Statue | There is a statue that will talk to you after you have got the password in Almaria. |
I like to walk around the outside of any new town before entering it. In this way I can see the boundaries on the automap and there are often coins or useful items lying around outside the walls. In this case you need to be a bit careful. Along the east wall north of the gate is a Shambler. Actually there is nothing at all outside the walls, but enough surprises within.
Leith tells you to look in his rooms and the statue says that all papers should be burnt. In Leith's home there is a rather hard trap (Level 16). His notes just tell you that charred paper can be read. There is nothing in Eddy and Patsy's rooms nor in Mondrain's home. So now to Bruce's rooms. In his oven is half a sheet of charred paper. Leith tells you to take it to Saffron, who makes the snippet of text legible.
It just remains to go to Vicky with your evidence who is so pleased that she gives you 25 xp and 4 rep.
If you talk to Bartholomew and someone has told you that he might know where Thompson has got to, he will tell you that he left a message behind the dresser in his room. If you look at the dresser now, you will find the message, which tells you that you need the runned key from the Blasted Ruins and that you should ask Friatus in Fort Remote how to get to him.
There is an inn run by Patsy. Rooms are to be had for 5 or 15 coins.
