Session 61

General Summary

SESSION BEGINS around 3pm on Denocc 20th, after Vampire battle in Tremorfall.  

FUTURE ENCOUNTERS

TREMORFALL

THE PRICELESS PIGEON INN
  • They search the inn, finding the coffins of Lord Khonaheeto and his allies, and most of their victims in a small attic crawlspace (including the one they were supposed to deliver the package to (COURIER MISSION FROM BEGINNING OF CAMPAIGN)
  • They also find the vampire treasure hoard, find a CAULDRON (Demon Skin Demon Skin Item ) and some money, which they collect
  • They also help themselves to some alcohol from behind the bar, Gorrazar trying to take some barrels of beer with them when they eventually leave
  • Gael insists on burying the dead, most of the party helps him
  • Da'ath sends away Navarax, says he has been paid and they no longer need him
  • Do tell NAVARAX he can stay at their home in GIMLOTH, but BE NICE TO MYRRA
  • After about an hour or so, they finally start making their way back to the Cathedral to Aureon, but are stopped when Gael does a perception check
  • Bord names his PISTOL A-Minor
ABISHAI BATTLE
  • A greenish, yellow round object ROLLS across the road before you, leaving a trail of what appears to be blood behind it. As it settles you see tangled mattes of hair, and lumpy features, glassy orbs, a batlike nose, mouth open in shock from the blow that took her life....you've realize it's the head of a humanoid woman HEAD. Not only that, but Da'ath immediately recognizes those features of that of his mother, Si’riian Flametongue. Then a voice can be heard TELEPATHICALLY in everyone's head, one that Da'ath and Vrae recognize In that moment, Gael's right eye also begins to throb in pain.
She died fighting for herself and her own honor, or lack thereof. Definitely not for you, Lykalada'ath. She cursed your name as she fell, her only comfort being our vow to take your life as well for your betrayal of Tiamat. Our promise that your agony would exceed hers, and be an example for all who would give false oaths to the Dragon Queen.   You were foolish to come here. The Queen heard your pathetic plans to deal with Khonaheeto through the ears of the fool Mark Bastardson. And when you betrayed her, Tiamat knew you would eventually find your way to Tremorfell. It will be your final trip in life. If your allies are fool enough to try to stop us, we're more than happy to terminate them as well. If they stand aside, they may enjoy a few more sunrises on Terus before the end.
  • Xannol (RED), Kazramath (BLUE), Mattia (GREEN), Okerus (BLACK), Okerus (WHITE)
  • ABISHAE ATTACK immediately, sensing the weakness of their opponents (Gael's eye ACHES) -EYE OF DIVINATION uses PORTENT against group
  • Vrae calls for SPEER help using SPEER of SPEER, eventually REYLEE arrives
  • Gorrazar falls a few time putting himself between the Red and Blue Abishai and Da'ath, trying to use the ANTI-MAGIC FIELD GENERATOR ROD to shut down the blue's power, an item he LOSES
  • Gael activates the ROC to help, and it does distract Kazramath the Blue Abishai and make him drop the EYE OF DIVINATION, which Gael eventually retrieves
  • Xannol and Kazramath kill Da'ath after long-protracted battle
  • Gael puts Da'ath's body into the IRON FLASK, as the familiar voice inside his head (activated once he left the ANTI-MAGIC FIELD) begs him to save Da'ath, in that moment players see Gael glitch into different forms
  • Reylee gives them some healing, but calls for a retreat when Aldrynne the White Dracolich shows up, activating Plant Walk and ushering group through.
  • Reylee dies waiting for everyone to go through, but does manage to get Belgar, Gorrazar, and Vrae through the portal to ORETON, sacrificing herself to save them
  • Bord breaks a tablet and a circle opens beneath Gael, and he dives through grabbing Gael and they exit separately from the rest of the party (randomly going to PALM POINT)
  • THE PARTY IS SPLIT
  • DA'ATH IS DEAD
  • GROUP LEFT ANTI-MAGIC FIELD GENERATOR BEHIND
SESSION END around 6:00pm on DENOCC 20th, with Gael & Bord (with Da'ath's body) at PALM POINT, and Gorrazar, Belgar, and Vrae at ORETON.  

PALM POINT (Split party B Location)

  • DUE to Bord's ROLL when he split the TABLET, he and GAEL will appear 40 feet above the ground
  • PALM POINT, currently not at war as the Ushani Clan led by Adwin Hobgoblin Clans has helped the TABAXI drive out forces of ORETON and FUGORE, though both armies are camped a few miles outside of the town, ORETON to the NORTHEAST, FUGORE to the SOUTHEAST
  • Ushani Leader Adwin Adwin Sheetwill RECOGNIZE GAEL as Mak'Ti, and insist it is his clansmen, the EYE OF USHANI, Mak'Ti.
  • Thalharnozrol Farcutter (Harnoz) [ANCIENT COPPER DRAGON]will show up EVENTUALLY, to take them all to safety (Sent by Nymmarth the Sapphire Dragon), most likely GIMLOTH (or wherever the rest of the party is)
  • Ancient Copper Dragon Copper Dragon CR 21

ORETON (Split party A Location)

  • Where Reylee would have sent them before she died, to a tree just outside HER HOUSE
  • Whole town is VERY MILITARY oriented, full of DAO and other creatures from Elemental Plane of EARTH
  • TEMP CHARACTER INTROS for LUCAS and JORDAN
  • That night VRAE will become a WERERAVEN (expand on this - have Queen reach out saying Khonaheeto was a fine test of her skills, but now her true quest begins as she is needed to save Terus)

JUDAI'ARUK'S NEW PLAN

  • JUDAI'ARUK Taking Control of the Cabal of Cthulhu
  • T'nin defects to Judai'aruk, having regained his memories, bringing the Vedalken the bottle of LUKAS HELVIIREN, who T'nin overheard speaking about his master, the Djinn Genie Keth. They torture Lukas and get the location of Keth, and they head to EXPA to demand wishes from her, bringing the might of the Cabal alongside them.
  • (THIS WILL TAKE SOME TIME)
  • At first Judai'aruk wishes for Cthulu to be awoken and freed, but not even Keth has that power. Next, he wishes for all the recombined ORRERY of the WANDERER, which she reluctantly grants him, massively weakening herself in order to save LUKAS's life. The half drow escapes, but not before he sees Judai'aruk kill Keth in her weakened state, having used so much power to gather and reconstitute the remaining pieces of the Orerry.
  • Next he sets his sight on the KRAKEN SKULL in front of the YAW SHIP
  • Next he finds the mortat remains of DREW SCROLL, intent on raising him from the dead using the ROD OF RESURRECTION stolen by the X-CULTISTS from the Cathedral to Boldrei in BOLUDO, so he can cast the MASS RAISE DEAD spell he created over 100 years ago
  • Next, he sets RENARD to find Eldath and STEAL THE CARAFE, fulfilling the VISION
  • Next, he sends the ABISHAI to Magiault to Steal the POWER STONE, using the EYE OF MAK'TI to guide them to it
  • Next he has GAULDENAL kidnap Baldir the Bold for the sacrifice
  • Finally, he he has the Mind Flayers bring him a parasite, and he becomes an ELDRITCH LITCH to perform the ceremony Eldritch-lich
  • Then he sets the TRAP
  • T'NIN can decide during the battle/ritual whether to help his old allies or not
