Quest Summary:
The party was hired to find the daughter of the elven ambassador, who disappeared while she was going to Club Hex, a noisy nightclub for young people in Avalon City - a very stylish place, and more than a bit of a meat market for the wealthy youth of the city. The party made their way there and blended in as best they could with the other partygoers, eventually uncovering that the place was owned by somebody called Miss Pointe, who, while young, had some serious Underworld connections, including with the Syndicate. She was also a tattoo enthusiast, and loved to make her art on the very finest of skin. Especially elven skin. The party bluffed their way into the back rooms of Club Hex, and there the female members of the party were assaulted by three suited bouncers, who tried to take them prisoner. The party handled the bouncers well, and then invaded Miss Pointe's inner sanctum, where she was scrawling a detailed tattoo on the back of an unwilling captive. Overpowering Miss Pointe and her bodyguards, the party found the elven girl and several others trapped in the back room, hanging like living art, their skins decorated with beautiful tattoos. Also in the back room was an old man, his face showing his bitter cruelty. This was Miss Pointe's teacher, now her prisoner, forced to continue to give her lessons so that she could become the greatest tattooist in the world.
