| 52 | #battle #TheCavesOfHunger The party entered the Caves of Hunger and soon came upon a crashed Netherese skycoach. Professor Skant nearly burst out of Vellynne Harpell's coat pocket, his gloaming eyes delighting in the artifact. The party found a locked chest and, right before cracking it, its inhabitants. Four flame skulls cackled madly in the corridors. Ythryn was a doomed place. |
| 52 | #battle #TheCavesOfHunger #TheChosen Their journey through the caves unveiled more and more about Ythryn's past as well as the current state of the passage there. They sighted a kobold vampire spawn who hissed and scurried away. They reposed in a crumbling Netherese tower, once a site of magical restoration and now a fog-filled ruin. Crank activated a tourist's welcome sign powered by the arcane eye spell -- which he shoved directly into his orbital socket. Gadget and Fern lamented an iron golem's head, which could only blink in recognition. It had laid here since the fall of Ythryn. And the party found themselves stalked by a mad, gnoll vampire... a beast who called itself Tekeli-li. She was an ancient vampire according to Skant. She turned to mist, hyena, and hybrid form. She cackled madly and gleefully struck when the party was amidst battle against a dozen shadows. It unnervingly dissipated when challenged. It was likely alone for centuries, and it had lost its mind. If the road to Ythryn was through a graveyward, then it was haunted by Tekeli-li. |
| 46 | #Solstice Two pinpricks of light bloomed in the professor orb as Professor Skant came to life. The orb summoned a mage hand to carry himself, pompously and proudly announcing his repertoire of knowledge: vampires, the Netherese, Elvish wine, and the Tarrasaque. He noticed and called out to Vellynne, who appeared almost embarrassed, swiftly snatching Skant from the air and pocketing him. He would be useful within Ythryn as a translator. |
