Session 30: Curse of Slaad

by Asharene Shadowthorn

We start chasing off after the people who are going to tell Loadagraph to bring the walls down. Ashe and Elias catch up with 2 of them and convince them they misspoke Ashe tells her guy that she meant 15 years...not 15 minutes, and Elias says that it's tomorrow and invites the guy out for a drink.
 
Franz catches up to the third guy and tells him we mistaked today for tomorrow.
 
However, The guy doesn't believe Franz and the guy doesnt 'believe Ashe. Everyone starts fighting. Elias's new friend starts to attack Franz, and Elias is like WTF man...I thought we had a moment....and the guy was like, Oh, I didn't know he was with you, so they agree to still have drinks after Elias deals with this. lol it's cute.
 
A fight breaks out. They cone of cold the shit out of us. We sustain a lot of damage but eventually defeat a few of the mages and escape to the sewers.
 
We notice that the sewer is actually the school sewer and not the shadow fell sewer.
 
There is something very big in the water here, but we notice that there are also muddy foot prints near us, but we can't tell what kind.
 
We traverse silently and carefully. We do see multiple things in the water. We then hear a voice saying their minions have spotted us and it's asked us to come out of hiding. We ask the name of the voice and he says it's Dawles.
 
We then reveal that it's us, the Rosy Thorns.
 
He asks what we thought of his money plan. We talk about shit. We dont like nor trust him, but Elias is like, hey you promised to get us close to the council and haven't done anythin to pay up. Apparently he forgot.
 
He also controls the red frog/rat creatures and those are what is in the water.
 
Dawles asks us to approach him to a place at the end of the hallway that we can't really see.
 
He tells us that he knows who brought down the house on us. It's an underling of Passin. He believes that if Passin ever gets power, it would be fun for a while, but in the end he would end up bringing order, which he doesn't like at all.
 
He likes people being posed against eachother over order.
 
I guess he likes us, because when everything seems to be moving smooth, we come along and shake things up a bit. He approves of our antics.
 
He says if we try to stop Passin, he will tell us who the underling is. He tells us Passin wants to get rid of the council and run the city through force on his own.
 
We decide we want to try and get to the meeting that is happening in like 3 hours to find out more about Passin's plan.
 
We learn that some guy named Blackstaff is the one who brought the house on us and he tells us in exchange for help with Passin, we have to defeat Blackstaff.
 
His end goal is to have Passin falter so the council members will take some kind of action to deal with it. He just wants chaos. This guy is a creature of chaos apparently. He's from Limbo, a plane of complete chaos.
 
He reveals that he is a Death Slaad. He introduces us to his minions whom are Red Slaads. Franz knows that they live in Limbo. They reproduce through humanoids by implanting spawns in their chests.
 
This is what we removed from QM's chest. There are also Blue and Green Slaads. Joe knows that Blue Slaads can transform humanoids into either a Red or Green slaad depending on if they are a magic user.
 
We end here having a conversation with Daals about what we are going to do next.
