ADVENTURE BACKGROUND

Aichil, a demon inhabiting an old beggar, fled from a demon hunter into a forest. The demon hunter caught up to him and, just before the the beggar was killed, the demon escaped into a new host, a Ramblebark Tree.
Within the tree there was a great struggle between Aichil and the ramblebark's soul. During this fight, the tree teleported to a favorite place, an old abandoned gourd farm in the woodlands near the town of Rookery Hollow. Sadly, the battle was lost and Aichil now commands the Ramblebark's magic while its soul is trapped within its heartwood.
Unfortunately for the demon, a tree is not the same as most creatures and is having a terrible time figuring out how to comprehend the ramblebarks senses, functions, and way of using magic. It is so different that Aichil, at least for this adventure, is terribly weak.
However, he has discovered that he can influence the gourds to grow into simulacrums of creatures... but only if he holds them within his roots, the primary sensory part of the tree.
Stuvun Perk, a bit of a scoundrel, has used the abandoned gourd farm as a place to hide his ill-gotten loot. He went to the farm alone and met the tree. A few days later, his simulacrum returned to town, its mind holding his memories and the demon's commands.
