Rictavio

A colourfully dressed half-elf bard performing in the taproom of the Blue Water Inn, with outrageous stories about a faraway carnival that he presents as true. He is easy to dismiss.

Twice a day, at dawn and dusk, he leaves the inn with apples and a cooked wolf steak. The apples are for his horse Drusilla in the inn's stable. In session 19 Corvin and Logi found a carnival wagon at Arasek Stockyard — peeling paint, Rictavio's Carnival of Wonders in faded red, old blood dark on the sides — and heard something large throw itself against the inside without ever learning what it was, or connecting it to the bard at the inn.
