chumbucket and Associates grand steal-a-thon

Congratulations Seymor Duncan for walking away with a deed to a large patio house and some cash! He located the clues and tracked down the murderer/kidnappers house near trinsic, where he detected a sleeping individual. He then robbed a map and a key, when combined with the map stolen from the faux-wandering healer around cove, they led him to a house of imps, explosion potions, and trapped chests. After several deaths he managed to walk away with the loot! Not as much finesse as I had imagined, but brute force got the job done!
Congrats
With the recent outbreak of PvP and Crafting player-ran events, an event with the thief in mind seemed like a good idea. The rules are very simply, and you do not "need" to be a thief to play, but the challenge is going to involve multiple playstyles.
The contest will run until 11pm EST, on May 16th. It will start May 6th at server up (approx. 7:10am EST). The winner will take home 150k in valuables, but it will not be easy.
Each day at a random time I will post a new clue relating to the whole scenario. This is a scavenger hunt of sorts, but may also require you to utilize different characters, or friends that may have particular skills. The actual treasure will be in place Tomarrow shortly after server up, and will remain there until May 16th or it is found, but players interested in getting a jump on the competition can certainly begin the search today, but the scenario will not make sense until the contest actually begins. This is not a "goto-location find-item goto-location" event, and will require some additional thought and finesse.
Current number of clues : 4
First Clue:
Outside a town by the water, he waits cloak and staff in hand. Ready at any moment to heal a traveling stranger.
Second Clue:
Perhaps a stranger at the city or orcs knows where to look.
Third Clue:
But he seems to have turned up missing, so says the citizens of Trinsic.
Fourth Clue:
The kidnappers dwelling was recently located, but Trinsic officials refuse to comment.
Fifth Clue:
Pet hairs were found at the scene of the crime.
