The Voiceless One

The mysterious figure known only as Zagar  is after some strange artifacts. No one seems to know why he's after all these objects.

The Doom Croaker

Looking to make some coin and establish themselves on the Rock of Bral, the Rat Pack meets an Astral Elf named Quranis Kuilanya. She offers them a job to go with her to collect a legendary diamond called The Doom Croaker. Legends say that the owner of the diamond dies an excruciating death, but Quranis isn't concerned about it. She mentions collecting the diamond for her patron as part of their arrangement. Either way, the party shouldn't worry about it because they get to keep any other treasures they find, and she is paying them handsomely for the job.
The Rat Pack successfully finds the diamond and safely passes it on to Quranis, who, in the process, mentions her patron's name: Zagar.

Stolen

While the Rat Pack was away on another quest, someone stole the Doom Croaker. The thief broke into Quranis' room and stole it from a safe as she slept. Desperate for help, Quranis went to Kouvian and the others, believing that they were the only ones she could trust. Azid and Kouvian were less than welcoming to helping her but agreed to at least keep their ear out for any news.
After a few weeks, the Rat Pack is visited by Garrin Ashcopse, and he reveals that he had stolen the diamond from Quranis and now falsely believes that the Rat Pack has stolen it from him. In the following confrontation, Garrin is killed, and the party learns that a tiefling named Crucelia stole the diamond from him.

The Throne of the Gods

The party was sent by Quranis to a place called Chult to meet up with a thief named Crucelia. The thief told them that Zagar was working to create a device called The Annihilator that could destroy entire spheres. He needed three more components for the device: The Throne of the Gods, The Sphere of Three Parts, and the Artifurnace. Fortunately for them, Crucelia already knew where the Throne of the Gods was and agreed to take them there.
She led them to a remote pyramid in a jungle called the Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan. Along their way to the pyramid, they fell into a pit that left them isolated in an underground complex. They had to find their way out of the pyramid from deep within.
Crucelia became frustrated with Azid and the others, thinking they weren't taking things seriously enough. She parted ways with them and went to find a way out of the pyramid on her own. Azid and the others continued exploring the pyramid at their own pace.
Crucelia eventually made it to the shrine at the top of the pyramid, but she was too late, and Draconians were already there trying to remove the Throne. She tried to stop them but died in the process.
Eventually, the Rat Pack made their way to the exit at the top of the pyramid. They found where the Throne had been removed and Crucelia's body there. They also found Tamoachan himself, angered by the theft of his Throne. He killed Kouvian and nearly destroyed the rest of the party before Azid and Stinkbreath convinced him they were not responsible for the robbery.
The angry demigod tasked them with finding his Throne and returning it. He assigned his archangel to follow them, and should they fail to do their job, he was to kill them all.

Recovering the Throne

The Rat Pack was given the location of Master Carvedous by Captain Glynkas Eagerwhisper. When they went to his asteroid base to confront him, they discovered the Throne of the Gods was kept there. The archangel that had been following them approached the Throne and touched it. In doing so, the celestial and the Thone vanished. 

The Defeat of Master Carvedous

One of Zagar's generals, Master Carvedous had the crucial role of designing and constructing The Anihilator. When the Rat Pack invaded his asteroid base, they defeated him and allowed a celestial to reclaim the Throne of the Gods, one of the crucial components to constructing the device for the dragon.
