Background

In the village of Kresk, at a fairly rough interval of once per month, a very special lady comes to town. She seeks out the best and brightest children and offers them space in her very special boarding school. There is no visitation permitted but they are offered the finest education and upon graduation the very best of them have been heard to return to the village and take their wise and trusting parents away to a life of ease in a land beyond the mist.

Rumors

Kresk is not a large place but it still manages to keep some secrets. Some people know little secrets. Some know big secrets. Some know things that are just plain wrong.

Roll a contested Persuasion against the chosen villager's Insight. Whether successful or not, roll 3d8 and consult the Rumors table (everybody has something to say, but not all of it is valuable). Add the difference on a success or subtract the difference on a fail.
