Henri Sallya
Captain Henri Clifton Sallya
To ultimately find out how he died and pass on you can run with what you got, henri only knows his name and that he died, hes searching for me info once he figures all that out he can finally pass on,
A man who worked with Morty throughout the Great Mutiny. He worked closely with Lord Thresh of Typhon while seeking to take the Phylactery of the Magelord.
Flint was known as a sort of Benedict Arnold around Pacura. He gained trust in the rebels only to betray them to gain favor with the Typhon army. He then turned on Typhon years later to steal the Phylactery of the Magelord. This item of immortality is what the ongoing strife in the islands is all about.
A traveling ghost who is known only as a myth,
Some say Henri is looking for something, and is constantly scouring the land, looking for something, something he lost, or something he wants.
He is a tall, male, ghostly figure, with long white hair, glowing eyes, and pointing ears, usually wearing nothing but black.
Henri's background is shrouded in mystery, no one quite knows where he's from, nor does he.
Changed his named to Flint Oli Lancashire when he left home.
Learn of Rai'Zyr, an ogre who was cellmates with Flint in the pit.
After some questioning, Arygos determines that Flint was allowed on the top level for good behaviour and was eventually recruited by Lord Thresh to work below deck on the legendary Onyx Stallion.
Christopher and Cortez met Henry the Ghost Pirate on the Eastern Shore (near the burnt down statue where Diggory's son was found). Christopher, Cortez and Henri find Sossari and Snerz. Located the turtle boat, the Tortuga.
Fought some Grimlocks, found a desecrate statue of Sootha with imposter written on it. Defeated some kuo-toa. After making their way through they found Eelisma at the end, she activated an old totem using the Pearls of the Stormblood that Sossori had been collecting and released the sea goddess from her sleep. As they made it to the surface, a large hurricane was beginning to form in the distance.
Diggory and his people had been slaughtered by a new adversary. Lord Thormund, Stormblood of Typhon, the island with the largest army. As Thormund firebombed the island, the party ran to Diggory's Tortuga. They were then attacked by a goblin pirate by the name of Captain Scruffybeard. After a short fight and snap of the captain's neck, the party took the ship and dubbed it the Gobsnapper. Cortez took this moment to flip off the party, not join them and take the Tortuga as his own. Had a goblin death match to decide who would stay on in their ship crew. Dickard and Martholomew won and stayed as shiphands.
The crew then made it to Kyra, the ship building island. Their ship got impounded and due to the party ignoring the guards, some of your crew was taken to the gallows. You meandered around town meeting some magical shopkeeps. Two Eyes and Boris Silverstaff. Two Eyes gave you a prophecy of “Beware the Basilisk”. Captain Dublin called Iona ugly. Two-Eyes runs an enchantery named Wizbops but is threatened by the new man Boris Silverstaff. Boris is the cousin of the legendary Remus and Boto Silverstaff. Boris is an undercover member of the Seekers and is close with his cousin. Henri closed his eyes and tried to let his memories lead him. He met a lovely couple named Iggy and Azalea, Iggy once sailed for Kyra on a Dhow ship but after his crew turned on him, he settled down to focus on his Delicious Iguana Jam. This was a disappointing discovery to the initials D.I.J carved into the Gobsnapper.
You meet Quinn for the first time as she announces the public execution of Mart and Dikard. You distract them in time to save Dikard the goblin. Due to some evil machinations and lying to Captain Dublin, Iona accidentally caused the arrests of Two-Eyes and Boris. Boris was wearing Seeker garbs when he was taken down to the gallows. The two wizards were hung in front of the town. Iona had a kill order placed on her head by her old faction for her misdeeds.
Henri learned from Quinn, the Stormblood of Kyra, that 30 years ago the strong nations teamed up against the weak and took up a fascist control of the islands.
A young sailor named Mortimer started a revolution, the Great Mutiny to rally the weak to defeat the strong. Quinn told that her mother died in that war. Talk to Jonathan McIncharge who is the Marina Chief, it gets you nowhere and you discuss stealing the Golden Fleece, Quinn’s mother’s legendary ship that fought in the Great Mutiny. After some shenanigans (such as putting gunpowder in all the guards’ pockets) and finding your ship being upgraded in the auction yard, the party breaks their ship out of an auction yard with a ship builder by the name of Mako.
During the battle Snerz got roped up on the docks. A drowning guard pushed a flaming barrel in front of the escaping Gobsnapper. Snerz picked up a cannonball and jumped into the water to neutralize the gunpowder. The remaining guards took aim on the Gobsnapper and aimed the mortars. As the ship was about to be fired upon, Snerz revealed that he had retained the teachings of Sossori and wild shaped his way into the hearts of the party. He was their best friend. They traveled back to Mako's island of Hydri, the island of the wayfarers.
As they arrived the hurricane storm that started as they left Eidon was getting worse. A tsunami could be seen on the horizon. Mako ran off to find his mother who lived outside the village. You met Mother Maggie who fed you while the winds picked up. The Stormblood and his son, Magnus and Maximus helped seal people home from the storm with an ancient Pacuran rune. Magnus, the Stormblood of Hydri, sacrificed himself to seal the catacombs as the tsunami crashed into the city, saving the party and his son, Maximus.
You explore the catacombs to discover that this is the resting place of the Ocean King. As you enter the record room of the catacombs, you find the gravekeeper murdered and the bones of the ancient ruler taken. Chris finds the Hydri Book of the Dead and Henri finds a history of the Fleet of the Stormblood and the beginnings of the Mutiny. You encounter a specter and a gelatinous cube. Sossori’s body is starting to be pulled back to the realm of her god. Eelisma took the bones to Milos to perform another ritual. Diggory’s son did not have a strong enough bond with the sea goddess. The specter was the angry spirit of Oceanus Tempest, the Ocean King. The spirit disappeared when his bonse left the tomb. As Hydri's new ruler, Maximus asked you to retrieve the bones of his great ancestor. Max reveals that the prophetic Stormblood Kricia of Milos is almost due with his unborn child. He fears Eelisma will sacrifice his child to try and bring Sootha back. He offers you riches once he becomes the Ocean King to protect his unborn baby and his fiancée Kricia. You prepare to head to Milos, the island of seamstresses and sail-weavers. Kricia and Maximus’ child would have the strongest blood connection to the claim of the Ocean Throne. The old lines of 30 years previous were drawn, the weak nations decide to rally against the strong once more. Typhon had the largest army, Zephyr had the largest fleet and Gyaron had the best fighters. All 3 were called to arms when the sea goddess awoke, even though all 3 leader had ulterior motives than just serving the sea goddess.
You are sling-shotted by Maximus' ship, the Howling Porpoise through the gusts of the hurricane. The Gobsnapper is more or less wrecked but you make it through mostly intact, Henri lost an eye. You arrive to find the baby has been born and Eelisma was trying to transfer the sea goddess into the baby atop a black ivory tower in the centre of Milos. You learn how the sea goddess and Ocean King were in love, having 9 children centuries ago. As Sootha grew more crazed, Oceanus Tempest had to kill his wife. Unbeknownst to him, she was with child. Their 10th child became the grotesque Eelisma and she spent ages plotting how to bring her mother back. You have an honor fight with Tayne, Stormblood of Gyaron, which Sossori wins by turning into a bear and he concedes what he is doing is not honorable. He pulls his Viking horde from the battle. After an obelisk puzzle and a battle atop the spire, the party embarrasses Lord Thormund using a charm spell. A Zephyr soldier takes the baby in a carriage and rides for the docks. Henri kills Eelisma as Sossori and Chris race to retrieve the baby girl. Using some wild shape trickery, Sossori as a jaguar with Chris on her back take out the carriage and save the baby. They jump on the nearest ship which is the legendary Blackfly, the brig of Lord Thormund. All of this death caused Sossori’s body to begin to dissipate. She fell to the ground as Chris tried to steer the ship to protect the baby. Sossori was plucked back into the heavens by her Goddess Danara. Danara being the patron deity of motherhood rewarded Sossori for her actions. The goddess gifted the group with some boons to help them in her absence. As a last ditch effort, the remaining energy of Sootha called upon a Leviathan to attack the Blackfly. Christopher had the baby as he watched Sossori begin to turn into blue dust. As the monster neared the ship, Sossori sacrificed herself and jumped into the leviathan’s mouth. She exploded in magical energy causing severe damage to the beast. She drifted up in the god's realm. Essence energy surged through him as Sossori gifted Christopher with a potion of giantblood. A 50 ft. Chris took down the whale like monster in a fist fight that shook the ocean. Through the power of Sossori's death, Henri and Moira were teleported onto the Blackfly. Max sailed by with his fiancée alongside him and took his daughter. He sailed off saying the mutiny will stay strong and take the islands back from Thormund and Borigan. The sun sets as you see an armada of large, Zephyrn ships sailing towards you from the horizon.
You outran the Zephyrn Fleet and got a new team member from Tayne, he decided that this dragonborn named Arygos was most likely innocent of his crime. You defeated the Fearful Bident ship and escaped through the narrow rivers of a nearby swampy island. After a tight squeeze you came upon a raging waterfall. One of you made a leap across to the treeline shore, the other 3 all went over the cliff. Arygos landed directly on the shore but brushed it off. Christopher tarzanned his way into ropeburn as he held on for his life. Henri fell and almost died. Moira made the jump to shore. After a medicine treatment, everyone was at least conscious as you got ready for the night. Christopher found some rum, Henri used riversight to see a settlement up ahead, Arygos and Moira set up camp. You took watch duty as you rest through the night.
The party made its way into town after seeing an inebriated group of townsfolk drunkenly skinny dip on their watch that night. As you made your way into the city you were greeted by a multicultural marketplace with many wares and good from foreign lands. You spent a good time conversing with Borno the Mine Dwarf blacksmith. He was also an aspiring artist who made his own trading cards. You split up as some of you visited the former High Guard soldier Grai Cross selling weapons, one of you went to Sol the Blacksun elf who ran the Arcanian Bookshop and one of you got nowhere with the Yergralffe fur trader because you tried to trade him Borno cards. Merdock the happy go lucky mayor of this settlement greets you. He explains how this town is for the workers at the lumber mill in the river. Also it works as a staging point for planned supply drops out of the swamp. Merdock is bold in saying that he hates Zephyr and Typhon and actively aims to undermine their bullying control. Before you know it, a Zephyrn ambush occurs and Merdock gets stabbed while the other townsfolk are attacked. You helped defend them off with the heroic help of Borno who sadly fell to a raider’s blade. After you dealt with half the invasion the cavalry arrived with the mighty ship The Kraken. It is captained by a grim man named Ivan. All of you quickly dispatch the rest of the attackers as Ivan drags two barely alive assailants into the war room. Merdock clutching his stab wound pulls another raider. They invite you in. As they tie the guards up, Ivan turns to you and offers you a job. He needs paid muscle on his next supply drop in Kinaros. Then he will drop you off wherever you need to go.
The party was recovering and resting in The Kraken's Nest. You mourned the death of your friend Borno while also stealing from his corpse. Spent time getting asking questions to the locals, Chris bought a Caluan Cookbook. Watched as Ivan killed an old blind man who sold out the location to Lord Borigan. Merdock decided to invite you to his guilty pleasure, beast fights. You bet money as the Flail Snail defeated the basilisk, the redcap and the jaculus. You finished off buying provisions and boarded The Kraken. You investigated the steel room in the bottom of the ship to no avail. You meet the crew. Moriarty the chef is dipping raw chickens in tar, Nocturna reveals that Ivan has another reason to go to Kinaros besides the supply drop. His old second mate Cortez was rumoured to have gone mad at sea and ended up on the fishing island. Moira takes Nocturna’s wedding band to give it to Cortez if they find him. On the horizon after a long rest you see a Zephyrn blockade circling Kinaros.
While aboard The Kraken you defeated one of the blockade ships that Ivan sent a warning shot at. You fought a battle against some Zephyrn Sailors, Sparrow and Condor, Ivan’s twin sons assisted in the fight as Dove, their sister captained her father’s ship. You won and sailed towards the blockade. Ivan loaded you guys up into a steel encased room at the front of the ship. He ignited a wick and you shot out like a torpedo towards the shore. Dove steered the ship away and pulled members of the blockade with her. You hide from some guards and then explore town. Ivan goes incognito and tells you to meet him at sunset. You go to the Dharan healer and then meet Garvin outside, a down on his luck beggar who wants to trade food for information. Before even offering this, you guys supply him with gold and food, then bring him with you to try and haggle for a house boat for him to live in. He inform you Maximus, now being dubbed as the Ocean Prince, has put a bounty on any dark elf spy found on Kinaros. Lord Borigan has hired members of The Triade to infiltrate and destabilize his enemy nations. You try intimidating the frail owner of the boathouse but his whimpering makes you second guess your tactics. You spook him and tell him that he is getting a roommate. You leave and tell Garvin to bunk up, he does. Moira rests, Chris buys some hunting gear and camps out. Arygos drinks a lot and dances with Hugh and Donnal, two random patrons from the fishing sho/inn you are staying in. Henri follows Arygos to the boat house, Hugh comes along. Henrii goes in to spook the owner out but Hugh takes it too seriously, not knowing that it wasn't actually Garvin's home. Hugh throws the man into the water and then jumps onto him from the boat. Hugh drowns the whimpering man. Hugh is drunk and swallows too much water, he dies and it is revealed that he is one of the dark sun elves that Garvin was talking about. You return him for a bounty and head to bed so you can meet Ivan later.
You fight a patrol of Zephyr guards and Blacksun Elf spies at the campground where you landed on the islands. Ivan awaits the supply drop as his son Sparrow rows the boat all the way from deep water. A signal is sent out from one of the cottages and the blockade is warned. The Zephyr ship launches a fireball, destroying homes and people as well as setting the supplies and Sparrow ablaze. Moira find a cypher on the dark elves and learns some secret information Chris and Ivan swim out to the oil burning water to save Ivan’s son, both receiving burn damage as they do. Moira meets Vultara, a member of The Triade (a rival of the Seekers) and the person who sent the signal to warn the blockade. Moira learned her old faction was on the island and the ongoing war was less relevant to them. Both The Triade and the Seekers were after some kind of ancient artifact that could grant immortality. Moira offers to work with The Triade to further her own means. Made deal to find a report Vultara knew about hidden in the Sawtooth Manor. This is the home of the senile Stormblood Lady Winella, a paranoid angry old woman. Moira does not tell Vultara any of her plan besides they were going to get Ivan to declare a parlay to steal the document. The dead boat owner was seen in Tenttown wearing Garvin’s old clothes. Moira and crew brought the body of the boat house owner and told Ivan that this was the person who sent the signal to the fleet, almost killing his son. Everyone rested as Moira explained the plan to use both magic factions against each other to find the artifact. The artifact is in a history of magic book that Moira bought, the supposed artifact is the Phylactery of the Magelord. Met a recovering Sparrow in the morning, he said his father headed into Fishrot Hollow after a tip that a man matching Cortez’ description was seen there not too long ago. The party needs Ivan to declare Stormblood Parlay to enter Lady Winella’s home to find the report on the location of the artifact. Wave the blue flag. Met with Triade in the morning, introducing yourselves to Izill and Skalden, Triade members here in secret from Lord Borigan. They are going to wait in the wing around the Manor for when you get back with Ivan. Enter the cave and defeat the sahuagin attackers as the cave fills with water. Leaves the magical glowing slacks behind. Arygos was still passed out drunk from the night with Hugh the dead black sun elf.
Arygos met up with the party as Henri ghosted away through the floor.
Escaped from cave, Moira concussed herself by trying to jump the spiky rocks at the bottom of the cliff, fails and then hits water. Arygos has to save her from drowning. Henri visited Garvin who has started a seemingly successful fishing company based out of the house boat you guys got him. Bought a diving bell and everything. Henri and Chris had a fishing montage. Scouted Seekers camp to see that Remus Silverstaff is on the island. This can only mean that he believes the artifact is located on Kinaros. Chris uses his wand of smiles while sneaking up on Ivan, I made Ivan smile but he saw Henri running off. Entered Sawtooth under blue flag of Parlay, risking Ivan's freedom. Winella turned mean and imprisoned Ivan on the Zephyr Galleon docked to the south of the island. You were able to locate the report from 30 years ago that Vultara mentioned. It doesn’t have much but it lists an Eastern fisherman reporting a friendly merelf named Deway as well as burying a body Deway brought to shore. Winny was mentioned a relative of Lady Winella. Chris wants to talk to Moira about breaking in. Moira wants to enlist help of Triade.
Participate in a magic ping pong tournament with the three undisciplined members of The Triade. Tell The Triade to go and cause a distraction. Meet a blind Eastern fishermen named Antiguo, you receive a journal entry that the dying man from 30 years ago wanted him to have. (22). Borrow Garvin’s diving bell to go meet Antiguo’s friend Deway who hasn’t visited in some time. Sailed to the merelf village. Arygos and Moira dropped underwater.
Henri and Chris fought some crabs, Chris is allergic. Went to the unmarked grave of Flint Lancashire. You are led by Deway, he agreed to help after you gave his wife a healing potion. The coffin is empty but another journal was preserved by the water sealing rune that Deway put on the box 30 years previous. (23) Head back to town, which is on fire because The Triade members were causing a distraction. Decided in the chaos to save Ivan from the Zephyr Galleon. Successfully do that. Got things from chests, lit the Zephyr Galleon up after saving some Kinarosian guards.
You enter this session with the timbers of the Zephyr galleon mixing with the ashes that were the markets of Kinaros. Skalden of the Triade set some of the city on fire to distract from you guys discovering information nowhere near the city. Flint was known as a sort of Benedict Arnold around Pacura. He gained trust in the rebels only to betray them to gain favor with the Typhon army. He then turned on Typhon years later to steal the Phylactery of the Magelord. This item of immortality is what the ongoing strife in the islands is all about. 1. Thormund of Typhon seeks ultimate power in which his father was too weak to control. 2. Lord Borigan has hired the Triade of the Fallen Night to help him secure the artifact. Motive unknown. 3. The Triade of the Fallen Night has sent its own emissaries to retrieve the item because they believe it is the key to defeating death. 4. The enemies of the Triade are the Seekers. They also search for the phylactery so they can lock it away in their vaults in Westmoor so only the chosen wizards can use such grand magic. The key to its location seems to be in the story of Flint Lancashire. After finding a few of his journals you followed a mystery that lead to his unmarked grave. Flint's body had been moved and the location of the artifact is at a dead end. • You know the Triade does not have it because they asked for your help. • You know civilians in this town have been replaced with Triade shapeshifters. • You know Remus Silverstaff is accompanying his wizards to try and find the item. • You know Kinaros is in flames. • You know what you've learned from the journals You head to the work camp because Moira found a document saying Winella had been replaced. You watched as Remus used a Silence Magic spell on the work camp to then send his men in to kill the remaining Triade members on Kinaros. Found 2 journal entries on the bodies of the Seekers, learn that they are moving out to another island after learning new information. The young boy Ulrick does not know anything further.(01, 04) Chris saved Winella but because he popped out of the shadows, she thinks he is a demon. Henri, Arygos and Moira killed the young last Seekers after getting his name and where his father lived. Moira took an igneous rock ring of the boy named Ulrich as well as a lock of his hair. Seekers were supposed to denounce all connection to their former life. Created a lynch mob as they arrived to the smoldering town and gathered anyone on the streets to raze the Sawtooth Manor with the black sun elf spies taking residence. After a long battle and cowboy shootout, with Winella riding on Arygos’ back, you killed the imposter. The real Lady Winella is about to hang the three Triade members who set her town on fire as the Zephyr blockade is destroyed by a large armada of ships bearing a new flag, The Royal Navy. Led by Dove on the Kraken, Maximus on the Howling Porpoise and Quinn on the Golden Fleece. They scare off the southern side of the blockade and bring supplies to their new apply in the Royal Navy, Lady Winella of Kinaros. Towing behind their ships is a repaired Gobsnapper. Knowing you have a ship again you tell Winella to stop the execution. You induct Vultara, Izill and Skalden into the crew of the Gobsnapper Max and Kricia introduce you to their daughter Illia, the future princess of Pacura. Kricia, the prophet gives each of you a clam shell with a letter written in it. She even gives you one for Sossori, which you decide to read out loud as a team. Kinaros, Hydri, Milos, Kyra and Eidon in spirit fight against the tyranny of Typhon and Zephyr, with Gyaron being in a gray area on where they stand. To finish up business on Kinaros, you head to the Seeker camp. You find one last seeker loading up the final cart before heading to the northern dock. You kill him and find another journal entry saying that Flint hid journals in the Pit on Gyaron. Ride after the boat to see it set sail heading for Gyaron, confirming your next stop.
After the long journey to free Kinaros you decide to let loose at the local tavern. Arygos and Moira get people dancing and singing. Chris leaves to catch fish and find berries. Henri hangs out in the room with your new shipmates Vultara, Skalden and Izill. During the festivities you meet a happy-go-lucky cripple named Stefan and a recent widow named Francisca. Chris and Fransisca go and bake in the kitchen during the party. In that time two gnome traders come in to see what the commotion was. Moira drunkenly informs them of Chris' identity and they inform then that they wish to kill Chris. The brothers names are Jonah and Oliver. Chris is their older brother who killed their father. Arygos accidentally sets the tavern ablaze, he then kidnaps the unimposing gnomes. Around here is when Moira uses a potion of diminution on Oliver. Chris and Fransisca escape but not before enjoying a room to themselves. Henri and the shiphands partook in some yandu that Skalden had with him. Them being mostly incoherent made Chris have to help then from the burning building. All the crew, which now included Fransisca and Stefan, escapes back to the Gobsnapper. Moira and Arygos begin interrogating Oliver and Jonah. A fight ensues between Chris and Arygos because Arygos harms Jonah. Chris almost kills the dragonborn. To calm the situation Chris offers Arygos a potion of healing, little did he know that Arygos gave him that a while back as a prank and it was actually a potion of poison. After many failed attempts, the tied up Jonah offered his poison kit and that cured him. Oddly enough, Arygos still wanted to murder the brothers and in that distraction, Moira took the Oliver and threw him into her bag of holding. After the scuffle settled down everyone agreed Oliver must have escaped the ship. Jonah's hatred for his brother, mourning the death of his father, lead the younger brother to take Henri's offer of a knife and stab his older brother. Another fight ensued with Jonah eventually being launched off the boat. Chris jumped in to save him after he repeatedly told his friends he did not want his brother harmed.
Chris swims away. Make it to Gyaron to a small village called Dias. Meet the historian sorcerer Triss. Leave to make it to the main city. Learn of Rai'Zyr, an ogre who was cellmates with Flint in the pit. Find him doing a twisted sacrifice to the goddess of life Shireez. Trick him to get by but his tribe just wanted to kill and slaughter and not be an cult to a goddess. The tribe attacks and brings out a malnourished bear to attack them. When the bear entered the sacrificial circle, shireez calls down and denounces the tribesman for desecrating her name. She transfers a lost soul into the bear and sends her aasimar emissary to end the disrespectful ceremony. Sossori returns as a conduit to a new goddess.
Got by poison dart chests. solved the labyrinth. defeated the Trollkin Reaver. made it from the beginning to the end of the labyrinth in Bismuth's Crossing. “Merble”. Henri is the InBestigator.
• Bismuth wrap up. Solved the lava teeter totters. Fought Bismuth and solved the lead leaf trap. Camped out atop the hillsides.
Leave the mountains for the lowlands. A large wooden viking barricade with metal similar to the junk metal on the towers in Bismuth. Looking down the hill in front of you, you see a the winding road intersect with an opposite curved river, creating a helix structure end at the city gate. Each crossing has a stone carved bridge. Just before the city the road forks off to the northeast into the mountains. The city is circular in shape with a large space carved out of the middle, this is a Coliseum. The southern side is walled by water and jagged rocks. The house covered in metal only have thr protection on the northern side facing the mountain. The large wooden trunks are handcarved with animal totems climbing to the pointed tips, the base of most of those battlements are layered with the same junk metal. The seekers arrived a few days earlier, rumour is that Remus is friends with a warlord living in the mountain. Pyrus the Bone Ogre is a very powerful pyromancer who was a member of the Seekers. He left after his training which is quite rare. The theory goes that he was too volatile and his potential was too great for Remus to continue training him. He personally took Pyrus back to his family. They had a strong bond back then. In the years since, Pyrus has grown mad at the world and amassed a gathering of orcs in his volcanic outlook. Met a weapons shop owner who is racist towards elves. Blimbo. Meet weird man in purple who has a yellow eye who runs the magic forge. Gives triss and eventually moira a blue puck with the seekers logo. Meet Cap who has sailed Paul around. He wagers his Thunderbird on a beast battle. Tayne relays that remus and his followers went up into the mountains to meet his old protege Pyrus. Sossori wins beast battle.
Tayne cannot not get someone into the pit, you must be charged with a crime to get through the front gate. Only a very powerful wizard could break the seal to allow you to enter and potentially leave. This ancient metal is sacred to the people of Gyaron and the way to craft it has been lost to the ages. This metal is impervious to the hot lava that falls from the volcanoes. Tayne and his Yergralffe wife Valda have 3 very young children. A 4 year old daughter named Brunhild and two twin boys age 2. Ichee and Tumble Sossori tried to hit on Valda, divides up some of the loot and reward from winning the beast fight. She also puts on a strange blue silk scarf as a ninja mask. Found burned buidling later learned that Pyrus destroyed it in a raid, he can melt the lava resistant metal on the houses. Blimbo plays the violin in secret, will finish Henri's blunderbuss by the next morning. The Clothesarium wouldnt buy adams old clothes but sold him new fancy duds met the conspiracy theorist working at the Gyaron Gazette who thinks Tayne is a lizard man. He is also looking for information on the Shipyard Strangler who has killed 6 (later found out to be much more) around town for the last few months. Sossori visited the potion master Greck, a rock gnome. He liked his business and wanted to invest, during his searching around he found a shipping container from the Knackle Brothers. Greck was annoyed that his shipments were late, Henri convinced him that the serial killer must have killed them. Sossori invest 1000gp in Grek's business so he could by a boat and hire a crew to keep his business going and to ultimately make it cheaper to not outsource shipping. During this conversation, Henri tells Sossori what happened to Chris and then that leads to Sossori also questioning the dissapearance of Snerz. Henri told her he died at the battle on Milos. They cried together in the middle of the street. Everyone met back up at teh tavern while a pyromancing orc cooked them food. A sombre Blimbo revealed that his wife was murdered shortly after Henri left. The Wardens told him ot find somewhere else to stay while they investigate the crime. He is heading to Diaz to stay with his brother. He hands Henri his Bayonet Launching Blunderbuss as he wanted to finish all his ongoing orders before he left the city. Triss attuned to her venom dagger. She then talked with the chef. He revealed that Pyrus is a very powerful unhinged mage. He has a following of people that respect him for his power. The chef saw a lot of seekers here a few days before but what they didnt know was that high ranking members of the triade were here not long before that to arrange a partnership with Pyrus. He also revealed that there have been many more than the 6 murders, the serial killer has been killing folk for months and leaves them in the open, the killer seemingly knows the guard routes. You see Tayne's 3 kids causing ruckus in the bar, Brunhild, Itchee and Tumble. Triss goes to speak to Tayne, who happened to be leaving his house to get his runaway kids when Triss met him at the gate, the kids all scampered by. Triss parlayed with Tayne in hopes of getting access tot he Pit. Tayne says he has no dominion over the Pit, he can only get you in the first gate. End of session thoughts Sossori - Find out about Snrez, hurt by his death, Sossori change (rebirth), Greck business plan. Henri - happy to gets all the guns, boom boom, sad for blimbo, magicov cocktails, mess with gazette, finds him funny. Triss - i need to convince moira and arygos to catch a killer. catch the killer or give tayne information to get into first layer of the Pit. Triss talked to tayne and has a propostion.
Tayne cannot not get someone into the pit, you must be charged with a crime to get through the first level but Tayne could get you that far if you helped. Once the igneous rock has cooled then the people mine that material to build their city. serial killer hunt for tayne to get access into the first level of the pit. The team wakes up and enjoys breakfast together as Triss explains her plan to Moira. Catch the serial killer running amok and Tayne will get you into the first layer of the Pit. Moira scams Ikibad and learns what the Forge does. Ikibad dubs his last name Magicko so the Seekers will think he is of higher born lineage. He magically forges Moira some items. Met Reverand Archibald and he worshipped Sosarri after learning her patron deity is Shoreez, the Sky Goddess. Archibald looked at the stone carving Sossari did on the aquaduct statue and began carving other wooden representations of his deity to look like Sossari. Triss met Dex who was another half elf. He didn't have that green of skin but his ears were indistinguishable. He had a great conversation with Triss as he is studying ancient runes around the island. He had a very noticably charasmatic smile. Also in the church was an orc warden named Gorbashav. He eyed up the two outsiders Triss and Sossari. He had a white spider-web tattoo over his left eye. Blimbo was in the church as well, he lied about going to his brothers house in Dias. Reported findings to Tayne around noon, he was concerned why Blimbo did not leave. Blimbo is the number one suspect in his wife's slaying. Went to his house, Blimbo's wife was killed in the soundproof room where Blimbo played his violin. The killer kicked the door open from the inside. The shoe print was fairly small, seemingly much smaller than Blimbo's. Out back you find a shimmy from a thieves kit hiding in the grass. Caught Nikolaus the Pitboss of the Casino stealing from the register, you arrested him and searched his pockets. He had thieves tools missing the shimmy. He admitted to trying to steal from the blacksmith a few days earlier but the sounds of a dying bird scared him off. This was actually Blimbo playing his violin. His feet were much too large to match the murderer's footprint. He said he had suspicions og it being Ralf of the Gyaron Gazett because he had been reporting on murders before they were public knowledge. Moira did one last check upstairs where a skylight was pried open with a dagger. Ralf hinted Gorbashav was boasting about the heinous murders he discovered. The orc was excited about how the people were killed. Moira entertained his lizard man theory so Triss could take his boot to compare to shoe print at Blimbo's. On her way over the intimidating Gorbashav intercepted her as he was hanging around the crime scene. Triss went into the bookshop instead where she found a dead Gizomo. Triss looked around without disturbing the body and then left frightened, Gorboshav was waiting outside with a group of wardens. They arrested her as the Shipwreck Strangler. Moira cleared Ralf after he babbled on further by using a detect thoughts spell. Moira ran into Dex on her way to save Triss, he was weaving through the crowds watching Triss in handcuffs. Tayne interrogated and determined it was Triss. The argument of the shoe print fell through when Tayne pointed out that shoe size matched Triss. To prove her innocence Triss said she had correspondence with Reverand Archibald over the last few years. He had to mail letters to her address and he could prove she had been in Dias when the murders started. Tayne sent Gorbashav over to the Gizomo crime scene to investigate and lock down the scene. Moira used her Helm of Teleportation to get to crime scene of Gizomo first and find clues. Moira has Gizomo's notes on a serial killer pamphlet from the Gazette. Gorboshav entered and Moira switched on her invisibility after finding clues about the killer. A dagger pierced his back and it wasn't from a tall person. She was able to dance past the 3 guards while invisible. Tayne, 4 guards holding Triss and Moira met at the Church of Shoreez, where they found bloody wooden statues with carvings on the faces covered in blood. At the front altar, Archibald's head was crushed in and gray matter was spread on the pews. He was murdered minutes before due to his body heat. Tayne could not let Triss go but no longer believed it was her. Triss faints at the horror in front of her. Moira hookshots to the roof, Tayne handcuffs himself to Triss as she wakes up and they go searching through the city. Moira finds a hidden rosegold dagger with a gold blade within the tree of Shoreez. Triss and Tayne see Dex running along the Aquaduct. Moira chases after him and lightning whips Dex as he crosses the river. This surge of electricity knocks him out and scars his body from his feet to his chest. Tayne arrests him and clears Triss. Tayne informs you only a powerful wizard can get you past the first level of the pit and break the seal that would keep you there until your penance is done. He brings up the fact that Remus would be that wizard but he hasn't been heard from in days. A cart of dead Seekers arrives from a driverless carriage with a note from Pyrus, "A gift for Tayne." End of Session thoughts. Moira: might have to save remus, you have the mind ring, to get passed the yuan ti telepath judge, feel like have to go to to Pyrus and see what's up. Triss: holy shit, damn it it going to be more difficult. remus seems like the only way in and he needs saving. time stop pyrus. You awaken in the morning to find out the Lord Borigan has began an occupation of Gyaron. Claiming that Tayne must release Borigan's fiancee from the Pit or face his wrath. Borigan is dressed in a sailor lieutenant uniform. He has two distinct bodyguards at his side. A slim silver armored Triton brandishing a khopesh as well as a large black armored gall guard covered head to toe in armor. The large brute carried a kinalite war hammer. The party spent some time at Ikibod Magiko's Forge creating items. Learned from Tayne that he isnt afraid of his cousin and wouldn't let the fiancee go even if he had the power. Only a very powerful wizard could break the seal of the Pit. Along the path the party runs into the badger who was dying with its veins turned purple. Moira recognizes this as Remus’ familiar. spied on the witch docter, snuck through the camp, that didnt work. battle with the witch doctor as reinforcement. saved teh baby owl griffons from Ictic's experiments. saw Pyrus talk to his captive. then he saw all the carnage, distracting the guards, you freed Remus after revealing you were iona. Pyrus ignited the volcano and chased you with a laval snake. ran into a cliffface and jumped to not be burned. saw the Pit in the distance. saw Lord Thormund rallying his army hiddeen on the estern shore of the island. parent owl griffons saved you because you saved their babies. remus says he loved moira (iona) like a daughter.
"what the fuck is going on with the wizards" these wizards be crazy, learn about tayne and borigan's finance, following these guys. im also happy im alive, ask about serial killer.
Started at the base of the cliff with lava slowly streaming down the mountain. A frail Remus is being carried by Triss using her hill giant belt, still succumbing to the poison administered by the witch doctor Ictic. Arygos has a baby owl griffon who didn't leave with the adults. You walked through the forest north towards the Pit and began hearing the sound of the sea in the distance. 2 bearmit crabs attacked the party but Moira was in a hurry and teleported the party to the entrance of the Pit. Due to a lack of teleportation experience, Henri grew up upon landing on solid ground. He accidentally threw up on a bearmit crab who had pinched Henri's butt before the teleport. Henri succeeded in befriending the animal and offered it food. The party looked through their bags to find any leftovers. Moira dumped out her bag of holding to discover that the dead body of Oliver, Chris' missing brother, had been hidden with his bag. Before anyone could even react to this, the bearmit crab eviscerated the body and then happily looked up at Henri while covered in blood. As you planned how you were going to get into the prison, a ship of prisoners arrived with Dex being chained up, he winks at Moira. Thunderous footsteps could be heard as Lord Thormund marched his black and gold army towards the Pit. Moira gave Sossari her helm of teleportation so her and Henri could wait outside to break their friends out. They hide behind Darryl, the bearmit crab of Henri's who looks like a pile of rocks when in his shell. Remus was also hid behind the rocks. A dying Remus provides the people breaking in with silver ribbons that will allow them to escape without being hunted for eternity by the magical beings inside the Pit. Arygos uses his magic armor to disguise as a Warden while brandishing Moira's Everchanging Emblem to get passed the Gall brothers, two twin were bears guarding the first level. They gave Arygos a hard time as they eyed up Triss and Moira and made some lewd comments. The three enter the central tower and are greeted by a bellhop named Virgil. He is super pleasant and quirky but kicks prisoners in the shin when they speak to him. He takes the trio down to the second level where a large multi head snake named Minos has its body wrapped around a pillar. Dex has just been sentenced and sent to the lowest level of the Pit. Triss is judged to have lied to get her job as she had ulterior motives to help Dias. She was convicted of fraudulence and sent to the eighth level. Moira uses her mind ring to only allow Minks to read certain thoughts. She shows enough of her former life to be sent to the tenth level. This area is first those to betray a government, lord or guest. They know that Flint was sent down to the lowest level with Rai'Zyr for Treachery against his island of Typhon. On the 8th level Triss met a blind man who spoke in heavy salt speech. A jumble of pirate, Pacuran, hear hearthic and gibberish. The other inmates were scared of him. It is revealed that this man is the former captain of the Kraken and hero to the great rebellion, Captain Mortimer. Triss asked about her old mentor Moasis and Morty reveals he was killed about twice weeks before. Dragged into the cage of the beast who even the guards are scared of. That cage is in the lowest level. Moira enters the icy domain of the lowest level, there are shelters built from rock and ice by the inmates who weren't frozen under the ice as penance. She enters the most isolated hut next to a large jail cell with banners and letters hung from the bars. It was letters of hundreds of criminals pledging loyalty to the beast within the cage, many of the banners had the symbol of the triad and dubbed this prisoner the new leader of the magical faction. Inside the hut Moira met Olivier, a good looking man with a clean shave and a ruffled shirt. He spoke about how his old roommate in the Pit, Moasis, who knew a lot about Flint whom Moira was asking about. It is revealed that Olivier is actually Borigan's fiancee who was jailed for stealing documents from Tayne. This was all a ruse as Olivier's main mission was to get into the Pit to find the same letters the party has been searching for. Borigan was supposed to get him out months ago but now he fears his love has moved on from him. Arygos is riding the lift with Virgil who tells the phony guard that he has been doing this job for 3000 years and has aspirations to become the judge and take Minos’ position. After some questioning, Arygos determines that Flint was allowed on the top level for good behaviour and was eventually recruited by Lord Thresh to work below deck on the legendary Onyx Stallion. Virgil also mentions being scared of only one prisoner, the beast, who Virgil had to go feed. On separate levels, Moira and Olivier, Triss and Morty all hear explosions coming from the upper levels. Triss is livid about Moasis and storms off with Morty to the 10th level. They run into Virgil and Arygos heading down. Morty has clout with the guards and gets Triss access. Moira at this point gets some of the Flint letters Olivier has been tasked to receive with a promise to help get him out when the escape. Olivier agrees because he does not know of Lord Thormund will appreciate the missions Borigan is running behind his back. All the trio and their new acquaintances meet on the lowest level. Arygos and Triss go see the cage, Triss begins yelling at the beast to a low chuckle in response. He roof explodes as ballistas shoot chains down from the floor above. Black and gold clad men slide down as the party can see inmates running towards the lifts and climbing. The prison gates have been broken open by Thormund. The collapsed ceiling knocks large chunks of rock in front of the large jail cell. Everyone piles into the lift as a loud thud is heard from behind the door. A large dark elf kicks open the cage and shatters the rocks. This is Jericho the Dark Sun Elf, known as the beast and the new leader of the Triade.
left the prison, threw Olivier into the bag of holding to hide him. The impact that broke the seal of the Pit, an ancient magic, was a combination of the anti magic creation made by Ictic and Pyrus launching a mssive fire ball. Pyrus had left the volcano after the team's escape and joined Thormund's ranks. Moira made a blood pact with Morty, he gave Moira the last letter from Flint and revealed Flint was a double agent for the good guys. He also gave you a black key and told you it was for his room on the Kraken. Turned Arygos and Triss invisible to escape. You chased Jericho as he escaped with Moasis. Claire and Dex teamed up against some wardens as they escaped with many prisoners to add to Typhons Army. Triss rode the elevator with Clair. They were discovered by some blackguards. Sossori found the bag that was held by Moasis that jericho threw away, there were some final letters inside. Henri and Darryl team up and super slammed some blackguards. Darryl instanyl killed one of the attackers with a powerful claw attack. Triss got the attention of Jericho as he dragged the weakened Moasis on his ship, the Moonbreaker. This implied the Thormund was already planning to break out the new leader of the Triade as an alliance move. Now Pyrus, Jericho, Thormund and Borigan were all together to fight against the new Royal Pacuran Navy. Arygos went berserk during the battle. Moira super saiyan lightning javelin and then landed like featherly ironman. blackguards defeated as Claire's ship sailed away with Jericho, Moasis and Dex. The team fought beserk Arygos, he almost killed Darryl. Sossari shielded Darryl as Moira strategically retreated to calm Arygos. Triss realized what was up and used Sleep Arygos. He then calmed down. Triss read the Moasis letter about a chronomancy temple. Remus stands up and burns through the poison. The poison that was seemingly killing him was purged as it was never enough to hold back the magic of such a powerful wizard. Talk about family ties and the only person he loved was Iona's mother. She was acting against him and his interests and for that, even though he did see her as a daughter, she was now more an obstacle. He time held everyone, slowly walked over and stabbed you all when frozen. The searing pain of your necks being slashed was hel in that moment as you began to pass out. Remus took the location of the temple and teleported away from your dying bodies, he tossed the flint letters he had found as his next target was more of interest to him. A single ship neared the shore. You wake up on the ocean on Grek's new shipping boat to realize his two employees are the remaining knackle brothers.
Wake up at the Archangel's Landing. Grek's new business out of a lighthouse on Gyaron. He has hired the Knackle brothers as employees. See Lyna's gravesite where it lists that she was killed by a traitor. Grek says Christopher left to check out a green ship that pulled into the harbour. Assumingly the Gobsnapper Teleport to the outskirts of Gyaron and see the Gobsnapper docked behind the S.S. Tempest. Lord Borigan is in a tense shouting match with Tayne about the jailing of Borigan's fiancee Olivier. Tayne will not relent and Moira tells him they killed Olivier. Borigan has Davos, Pathos and Pyrus as bodyguards. Pyrus holds Itchee and Tumble hostage. Tayne throws he body of Olivier in front of Borigan and the tyrannical leader is unphased. Borigan stabs Tayne in the leg with his ice rapier and a fight ensues. Sossori tries to gust the attackers away as the crews breaks for the Gobsnapper. Tayne with a leg injury cannot hold his ground but Pathos can. Davos casts a water wall and covers Pathos. He removes his helmet to reveal a black dragonborn with blue tendrils coming out of the spaces in his scales. Pathos has electricity flow from his body to his kinalite warhammer as he bring it down on Tayne's lower half. Shattering the ice covering his leg and stomach. Valda rushes in but can't get passed the water wall, Arygos bursts through it to attack Pathos. Pyrus leaves on the Bone Rattler as Davos takes command of the Rosebud. Borigan helms his galleon as his cannoneers and mortars fire upon the people of Gyaron. After recovering an angry Arygos who Valda almost killed, you board the Gobsnapper to find a package from Christopher Knackle. In it is a note saying he wished it ended better, as well as his adventuring gear. He is for the moment retiring and focusing on rebuilding his family. Sail the Gobsnapper to the Kraken's Nest on Ios. Bicker about who the captain is. Each crew member pick someone else. Moira makes a prayer to Danara and a tune appears on some food Franny is preparing nearby. Moira eats it then passes out. A few days pass as you make it to Ios. You meet Ivan and Moira gives up Vultara for the injury of Sparrow. Crag and Moriarty arrest her. You discuss the black key and the steel room. Ivan allows you in but wont risk being eaten by Mortimer's pet hydra Parsellax. You use the oily raw chicken to distract the beast. The are two abnormally large chicken legs that are possibly Vultara’s. Moira and Sossari make it into Mortimers office and find a clock and a letter. The second last journal entry and a official document from Mitchell the gravekeeper. A blinding pulse activates when the paper is lifted and the bird in the clock flies away with a locket and a letter in hand. A chase ensues but you can't keep up. Sossari at least sees that the clockwork bird is heading for Kyra. In the last entry you find at the bottom is 3 letters O L Y You remember that Mitchel was in charge of the Hydri Catacombs and immediately teleport there. You can't get inside because of an anti magic aura on the tomb but can get outside. Sossari waterbends the team up the river and you enter the kings tomb. Vandavar Silverstaff is also buried here. Push open statue to find Flint tomb and place the letters. Nothing happens Quinn shows up with a locket in hand and Darryl is happily escorting her in. She reads a letter she got about her apparent father. Revealing his middle name to be Clifton. They try and rearrange the letters to no avail. Typhon goons show up led by Claire, Dex, Dimitri and Fimbulwinter. Tensions rise as Claire and Quinn realize they have the same letter. Darryl greets Claire happily as well. Massive amounts of cannon fire can be heard outside, all the leaders have gathered here to make a last stand. the battle rages as you try and prevent the Fleet of the Stormblood to get the hands on the artifact. Sossari figures it out the Flint Oly Lancashire is an anagram for Henri Clifton Sallya. The tomb opens to reveal Henri's bones covered in essence from the leaking phylactery. Moira and Arygos try to take the bones but this causes Henri immense pain Sossari tells the ladies they are his daughter and Clair is furious because she hates him. Quinn is confused as she is captured by Claire. Claire threatens Fimbulwinter on darryl so as he is running in the hidden crypt, Henri shoots his pet to save him from pain and torture. Triss hides outside as the others try to negotiate their escape. Claire just wants the artifact for her boss. Henri touches the phylactery and feels it pulling him in. He cannot fight it and is siphoned back into his skeleton, leaving the party. Arygos stays in the tomb and the others leave. Once they are outside then Arygos throws the artifact just short of the door. Triss hears someone else marching up the stairs. Arygos kicks the artifact out to Moira as Sossari makes an earth bubble around them. Fimbulwinter attacks Arygos, but making him berserk and cursing him with lycanthropy. Claire covers behind two goldguards as Dex misses Triss with his whip chain. Moira and Sossori can sense power in the artifact. Arygos takes a beating for a while. Dex takes the moment to betray Claire and stab her in the back. He declares he is the son of captain Mortimer and is here to complete his father's mission. The dirt bubble drops as the magic girls disintegrate the priest Dimitri. Borigan and Pathos arrive to see the devastation from the artifact. Sossari thunder shocks Arygos’ axe as he kills Fimbulwinter, absorbing some of his soul into the axe. Joseph orders the goldguards back to the ship, as the highest ranking member of Thormund's army they must obey even though he killed their captain. They leave. Arygos falls to a blackguard as Sossari attacks and misfires, hitting the dying Arygos, tried and Joseph team up on Claire who is injured and furious with Dex. Dex runs behind the statue and breaks a small gem on the back of the statue, this item was what was causing the magic block. Triss and Moira turn to the Zephyrn stormblood and his bodyguard. Now both can enter the tomb and use magic. Sossari runs to get in the way as the blackguard swings at arygos again. As she does this she feels an energy flow through as small buds bloom into leaves at her shoulder part of her wings. This slight transformation distracts the guard as a whip chain dagger carves through the attackers sternum. Joseph walks out from behind the Oceanus statue and pulls his dagger blade back. Moira waits for the phylactery to recharge as Borigan accepts they don't have control of this situation. Pathos now commands the retreating gold guards to stand against the party. Borigan and Pathos leave as the final two goldguards are fighting. They are quickly handled now that the party can use magic again. Arygos is revived as the group stand there in disbelief. Moira is holding the phylactery in her hand. The artifact recharges as Moira places it against her helmet, powering her Helm of Teleportation beyond it's normal limits. She looks to the group and begins to glow. A smile crosses her face as she begins to separate. “I killed Snerz” she says bluntly as she teleports away from the friends she had adventured with for months. An injured Claire begins walking towards the group, looks to them and tells then that she is tired of fighting. Sossari offers her a place on their team and she stops to consider it, Triss then informs her that she was just going to shoot her in the back. This confused Claire as the team was clearly in disagreement. She walked away from the party so Triss blasted her with a fireball in one shoulder as Joseph, looking to cover his betrayal, stabbed his whip dagger into her other shoulder. She fell to the ground. END OF SEASON 2
You killed Claire and listened as a loud shrieking roar came from outside.
During your battle, Quinn was captured by Claire and sent back to Thormund's ship, somehow Quinn was able to not only escape her confinements but took over the Onyx Stallion, Thormund's father's ship that he commandeered after the party stole and crashed his brig known as the Blackfly. Thormund could be seen in handcuffs next to Quinn. All of his main recruits were killed by the party in the tomb. Dimitri the priest, Fimbulwinter the winter werewolf and Claire the captain of the goldguard. He also lost the serial killer Dex.
As the ships sail in, Quinn congratulates you on preventing Thormund and Borigan from obtaining the power of the phylactery. She questions you on where it is. She says that she hates her father for leaving but mostly for choosing to kill her mother Kindra. She says she will tell Maximus what happened and have the history of Henri Sallya corrected across the history books.
It scared the blackguard off of Thormund's ship which allowed Condor, Ivan's oldest son to swing across and free Quinn. Just as her mother did 30 years before, the Stormblood of Kyra faced against Thormund on the greatest sea battle in recorded history. She took his ship and captured the tyrant. At least his son will have a mother to raise him, Claire is a fierce fighter but also a loving woman. Arygos reveals that Claire died fighting for the phylactery.
Finally rested in Flint's Grave, with the Phylactery protected in his tomb.
