The Saltmarsh Register - Vol 1.14

 The Saltmarsh Register is the in-game newspaper I invented for the Ghosts of Saltmarsh game I run online every other Saturday. It is reprinted here to give others a taste of how that game has developed. WARNING, it may have spoilers for the Ghosts of Saltmarsh adventure, though I have deviated a bit from the published module.



The Saltmarsh Register

DROWNED WOMAN FOUND!

The crew of the Pink Dot, a fishing vessel, has recovered a drowned woman as sea on the 7th of Harvester. They found her clinging to driftwood. The woman, who is not known to any in Saltmarsh, has been brought the temple of Procan to recover.

PRAY FOR KING SKOTTI

DEATH OF A CHARLATAN!

Mikos Alter arrived from Niole Dra last week to sell various potions and tinctures of dubious efficacy. While in town he began claiming that Garret Axehandle was an impersonator and not the true Assessor Axehandle. Unable to provide any proof, the charlatan retreated to the Wicker Drunk and drank for two straight days. He was last seen alive after midnight on Godsday the 4th of Harvester belligerently pounding on the doors of Solmor Manor and demanding an audience with Anders to provide his proof. His body was found washed up near Crabber’s Cove on Earthday the 6th. The generous councilor Axehandle has graciously agreed to cover the drunken grifter’s funeral expenses.

FISHING TIDBITS

After finding a strange golden coin in the belly of a fish she caught on Sunday 2nd of Harvester, rumor has it that Polly Wavestrike has lost every hair on her body. The editors of this august institution have not been able to reach Polly to ascertain the truth of this matter as she has spent every moment she can on her fishing boat at sea.
