Session 36: We defeat Loadagraph and have a reunion with Morpheus

by Asharene Shadowthorn

We have entered the secret entrance of Castle Demerisa and have just been greeted by a voice that says "Took you Long Enough" as the door shuts behind us. It's the 25th of Azuthaire roughly 5pm
 
We are attacked by shadows and Loadagraph. We nearly lose Franz, but we are able to defeat Loadagraph and the shadows. We learn that Franz is actually some kind of vampire or vampire spawn, because when Ashe casted Daylight it caused Franz to get set on fire.
 
He's already getting thirsty for blood.
 
We figure out that he is likely a vampire of spawn which means he may be under control of the Magnuses. Franz remembers hearing a story when he was younger about a vampire spawn being able to reverse this affect, but he can't quite remember those details. He remembers Tremon Beauridge being the hero of this particular story. He's the one who saved the guy who was a spawn.
 
Tremon Beauridge is a famous vampire hunter from Galvania. Maybe if we try to find this guy, he can help us. We think about finding Andromeda to figure out what is going on.
 
Franz drinks the blood of Loadagraph and feels much better. Joe and Ashe are extremely weak from the fight as their strength was literally sapped.
 
We decide to go check on Blackwood and Aria uptop where there is a fierce fight going on. We hold up the head of Loadagraph and make a compelling speech causing the baddies to start teleporting out.
 
We stay in the castle until it gets darker outside. Franz decides he wants to go find a scroll of darkness that he may be able to use with the sunlight.
 
As we go to leave the castle, we run into the Quarter Master. He tells Franz there is someone he wants to go see with him, BUT Blackwood can't be there.
 
We all go with him. It's Morpheus. Franz is like WTF dude....I've thought you were dead all this time..and they kind of go back and forth. Turns out that Morpheus is also a vampire spawn by the Magnuses. Morpheus caught wind that they were coming here, and knowing Franz was here, he came to try and help, but realized he was too late.
 
Isolde sold Morpheus to the Magnuses years ago. We learn that he knows Tremon Beauridge and he is responsible for ousting the Magnuses when they were ruling Galvania. He tells us that the Magnuses are now hiding in New Galvania.
 
Morpheus says Tremon was able to help a vampire spawn once, but it's impossible now and Franz should put it out of mind for now.
 
Morpheus knows how to create magical wrappings that shield him from the sun and will make some for Franz. He knows that the Magnuses have made a deal with a devil named Glasya. The Lord of Malbolge. Glasya is the one who turned them to vampires in the first place.
 
We learn that if we kill the Magnuses, then all of their vampire spawn should be returned to normal. That's how Tremon did it before.
 
We decide to go check out the academy to see if we can find any helpful information on vampires and how to maybe withstand their commands ot a vampire spawn.
 
we want to try and find some sending stones, so that when we ultimately leave this city, Elias, whom is a council member and leader of the thieves guild, will have a way to communicate with people.
 
We end having gone back to our base and take a long rest. Morpheus gives Franz the special wraps and talks with him about vampirism. It's the 26th of Azuthaire roughly 7am.
