The Atlantean in the basement

I was going to send an email, but then I remembered we're all on this thing together.

So, our visitor in the medlab. Initial talk seems to indicate he's an actual Atlantean - does anyone mind if I have a chat to him about who he is and what his intentions are? I'd rather avoid another magical-related catastrophe, and he's apparently linked to the staff we took from Tandy's guardian demon a couple of years ago. I figure we can kill two birds with one stone - I grill him on the magic side, and one of the leather brigade do the safety speech?

Also, what's with this Clint bloke? What's his interest in all this? And how much can we trust him?

If this stupid staff makes me vomit when I Read it you owe me new clothes and shoes and possibly expensive jewels.

Clint, the last I heard, was working with SWORD but rather on the outs. Seemed a rather decent sort, knows really terrible Russian pick up lines and and makes a mean breakfast. Other than that, I do not have much.

Oh, looks good without a shirt on but that does not seem particularly relevant.

SWORD? As in "we're the government bastards who stick our noses where they don't belong" SWORD? This isn't exactly filling me with warm fuzzies.

He seemed to not enjoy toeing the party line. Got into trouble with the higher ups for refusing, rather soundly, to follow orders he did not agree with. The fact that he seems to be here again might mean he's actually parted ways?

On the subject of newcomers and potential magical disasters, you may want to touch base with Illyana. She wasn't forthcoming on intake, but she had some suspect reactions, and a few days ago she made a few comments on Xavin's journal that indicate a familiarity with demons.

Oh bloody buggering fuck. I knew I missed something. Yeah, I'll talk to her.

Thank you. Be warned, she's experiencing some culture shock and is generally on the cagey side, though since she was experiencing some problems with her teleportation when they dropped her off she might still be catch-able.

Food bribes might work, unhealthy/borderline-synthetic apparently preferred.

Okay everyone, so Amanda made me get up at the crack of dawn and Read the damn staff this morning.

Dude's definitely an actual Atlantean. That kingdom is off the hook, yo. Real pretty. Pillars, domes. Looks like a mix of a bunch of different ancient cultures.

So this trident thing... I think it was made by aliens? Can't say for sure, but, fuck. This thing came into being with technology I'm pretty damned sure is advanced beyond modern science. There are a shitton of Atlantean magical wards and protections on it.

So this thing was made to be the key of Atlantis, apparently. It was used to move the floating city from place to place and passed down from ruler to ruler. The ruler used it for war and ceremonies. This Namor guy, it turns out, was betrayed by his guards and used the trident to defend himself.

Then there's a thousand years of blankness on this thing. Just... nothing. Nothing happened. So this guy is like, a thousand years old? How fucking crazy is that?

I'm gonna go get drunk. I don't care how early it is. Then I'm gonna go talk to this guy about Atlantis and about him being a dick to Tandy.

Huh. I'll drive, if you want me to, and pay for the first round?
