The Lava Floor Inn/Adventure One Shot

"Welcome to the Lava Floor, what can I get you?"

That's how it started, me and the Burden of the Sun had just walked into this inn in the middle of nowhere. She was chipper, unusually so, which takes some doing, as like most chosen of Hyperion, she gave sunny disposition a real workout. Oh, who am I? I'm Angeveult Rassafra, "The beginning of the end of langor", yeah, it's a mouthful all right. I got that from my patron, the moon. It's symbolic, when the moon rises, you're supposed to get off your behind, and do things. Ugh, but I'm just a small guy, and my powers aren't that great. Sure, turning into a werewolf is a big improvement when you're 45 kilos, soaking wet. But, you still won't squash a 6 meter tall, two ton elemental monstrosity made of solid stone. Won't stop Candice though. Precious little will stop Candice, now that I think about it. But that's why we were here, we'd just barely eked out a win against an earth hubris, and needed a rest.

There were three other elects with us, I didn't know them well yet.
Feel free to introduce the player characters here. This adventure is for up to five characters of Scale up to Elect, or up to three Ascended Elect. Angeveult and Candice are available if only up to three PCs can participate, but otherwise feel free to let them recover from their last fight.

"Thank you innkeeper, we'd just like some rooms for the night and some hot food, what have you got?"
"I've just got the hot stew, right now, sorry. With what's all that's happening, we don't got anything fancy."
"What do you mean, with all that's happening?"
"There's this Hubris, of fire, terrorizing the next town, everyone says it's only a matter of time before it comes here!"
"Dangit, a hubris of fire? Can no one stop this madness?"
"Why do you sound so personally affected, you can just walk away..."
"My goddess won't let me. She won't let me abandon her people without redress. And these other elect won't either."
"Oh my, so many elect in my establishment!"
"Everyone, the floor is turning to lava, get outside, ouch! Hurts!"

"You, can you lift them, before their burns are too severe?" I speak to one of the elects, trying to get these people to safety.

This outlines the movements.

"Who said Hubris had no sense of humour!"
"Hush, someone could have died, it's not the time to make jokes."
"What's that?"
Show surprise

What that is is the monster you rolled on the table above, one of any of Lesser Ifrit, Lesser Salamander, Fire Skunk, Fire Nuruk-Chai, Fire Undine and Fire Dalmatian.
In Mortaliti, such beings are called Hubris, even though they are more properly called Hubris Manifestations, as each Hubris is basically an evil god.
"Hum Hum Hum" is all the hubris says, if it's a Skunk, Dalmatian, Nuruk-Chai or Salamander, but Undines will speak, although their point of view as beings who swim in lava and bathe in fire, is quite alien to a mortal.
