The party makes their way to one of the mining areas of Janderhoff to speak with Juuck. When the arrive, it’s clear that they’ve misinterpreted the history; Juuck never went on the expedition, he was merely an investor. Unfortunately, the dwarf doesn’t have a whole lot of information to offer apart from the names of …
Fully equipped with exceptionally expensive endgame gear, the party makes their first move in the chess match against Karzoug. That is, of course, waiting around for a couple months to give Fyn enough time to craft magical items at half-price. What’s the end of the world when you can save a few bucks, eh? Eventually, …
Intrigued and curious about the situation at the Blue Bunyip, the party heads back to the tavern where this little side quest began. There is a small contingent of guards present, but they don’t seem to care about stopping bar patrons from grabbing a drink. The party rustles up some pints from the bartender (sour …
Fyn teleports the party, Damaz, and Zohadisha back to Sedeq to convene with the Fading Council. The gang’s all here: Eriza, Tikhig, Jekkos, Raldou, and Avi. Even the lutung monkeys are making a cameo appearance. After brief pleasantries, Fobias is tapped to reiterate the party’s experience from the past few days. He explains the water …
The party begins moving in towards the Mad Prophet, but the piles of writhing goblin snakes are in their way. Barnaby goes invisible to advance on the enemy while Krask begins firing arrows to clear the way, hoping to get the party engaged in the fight before their Haste spell completely wears out. At the …
The battle with the Spirit Allip rages on! As the room reorients itself, the party keeps their faculties about them, and none of them are sickened by the change in perspective. Their damage is consistent, but the incorporeal nature of the creature limits their overall output. Not to mention that Barnaby’s critical-hit build is momentarily …
The mound of treasure is exciting, and laden with traces of Sarenrae. Apart from the mountain of gems, regional art, coins, and ceremonial garb, there are a couple key magical items of interest: Dawnflower’s Petal: A magical longsword that becomes more capable and potent in the hands of Sarenrae’s followers Fortune’s Arrow: When you need …
Now that the other gnolls are out of the picture, the party focuses all of their efforts on taking down Pungysh. The sounds of stirring gnolls emanates from below decks. Krask sidesteps out of Fobias’ way and unleashes his trademark series of arrows, striking true. Meanwhile, Barnaby manuevers through the wreckage and charges at the …
Instantly, the gnoll camp is on high-alert. The sentries at the top of the wall point their spears in earnest as a deep-sounded bell rings out. Seconds later, a formidable gnoll emerges to join the sentries. He wears an anchor around his neck, and has burn scars along the side of his face. His name …
A cursory investigation of the charred gnoll body reveals several things. First, it is clear that he died from magical fire, although the actual source is unclear. Secondly, the powder in the pouch is classified as Dust of Dryness. This alchemical substance is quite harmful to elemental outsiders, and appears to be the same substance …
