Rumors Across Esterelf; threading suggestions in disguise

Has your character tried experimenting on the water supply which turned an entire city's tap water into orange? People tend to talk about such matters. Perhaps someone saw this character, perhaps they believe they are an alchemist, who can tell for sure? Maybe someone else's character might look into it, and come across your character. Perhaps holding a torch or a pitchfork.

This thread is to set up such situations. If during a thread your character does something out in public that might cause more that one person's eyebrow to rise, you can create a dialogue exchange between two (maybe more?) unassuming people talking about it. The purpose of this is to hint at other members about certain things another member's character is up to, thus inciting a conversation for a thread idea where one character attempts to address the rumor and meeting the character that (perhaps unwittingly) sparked the rumor in the first place.

Example

How vague the character is represented through the rumors is entirely up to you. You can have the rumor start a game of cat and mouse by just dropping one or two hints about this character's identity, or make it very obvious by having a pretty trustworthy witness (perhaps a name can be dropped, if the character is famous enough).

While you do not need to have your character rob a bank, the origin of the rumor should make sense. Your character must do something unusual, and the setting of the event should happen in a place where bystanders could reasonably be there to observe it. Whether the location and/or people's identities that are part of the exchance are explicitly stated or not it's up to you.
