When last we left our brave adventurers, they were resting from their encounters at house survail. Max and Maeve had to leave to go track down leads about the empire. The remainder of the group rested until that night. They attended the dinner for the announcement of the marriage that was to be. They arrived at the house and went inside and were seated fairly close to the family, except for cat and leo, who sat almost as far away as they could. Leo cast the telepathy spell, so the group was in constant telepathic communication. Mattias then went to the bathroom and cast true-seeing. He then waited for a moment and stood up and gave perhaps the best blessing that there ever was to be given. He then walked over and thanked the Priest of Kane for his part in the battles against the orc horde. While moving, he realized that there were a TON of dopplegangers, perhaps a couple dozen in the room, and on top of that, all of the notable people (with the exception of the priest of kane) had someone in their retinue that was a doppleganger. Sometime after the blessing, all the dopplegangers looked directly at each of us and then at each other, and then they went back to what they were doing previously. Around this time guards began to confront leo and cat. They both went invisible to avoid capture, but the guards had said that the room had been infiltrated by dopplegangers. Cat did something and tried to inform the crowd that we were not dopplegangers, but one of the dopplegangers enthralled the entire room, and gaylen and cat almost believed him. A fight then broke out, during which time, Mattias almost killed the father of leo (who was not a doppleganger), Mattias asked the priest of Kane for aid, and all but one of the dopplegangers died. There is one alive, and he is currently surrounded by the party. Fortunately, no innocent people died and no dopplegangers escaped.
Next time, we try to interrogate the doppleganger.
