Campaign Notes

A mantra heard from someone... before I joined:

Evil twin hides its face for now.
Expect that to change before winter's end

Notable People, Groups, Items

Devil Starsong

• Zent guy in the Yawning Portal:
• He's against the faction of Zents which are "trying to drag us back in time"
• Gave us the quest to find who was killing elves in the docks

Martem Trek

• Small boy, huddling, crying after the fireball attack
• found remains of necklace - the necklace of fireballs used by the nimblethingy
• We hired him - can't remember what we hired him to do now... keep an 'eye' on people, perhaps? Try and get people into the pub? Whatever, it made his day.

Nim

• Automaton based in the House of Inspired Hands - the temple of, er, some god or other
• Created some not great creations - a homicidal hummingbird and...
• Another nimblething, which appears to be some kind of robot-for-hire - a sociopathic mercenary

Renaer Neverender

• Young lordling
• The party (minus me) saved his life earlier in the campaign.

Dalakhar

• Gnome, hired by Lord Neverender (Sr) to spy on his son, Renaer
• Trusted by Neverender Sr

• Afraid of the Zentarim / Xanathar guild
• He as coming to us to hire us to take the stone to Neverender Sr when the fireball attack killed him

Cult of Manshoom

• A breakaway cult from the Zentarim
• Starsong reckons they are trying to drag the Zents "back in time"
• No clear understanding of their motivations at this point

Stone of Galorr

• Allegedly, an ancient creature, transformed into an artifact
• "Knows the location of treasure consisting of half a million dragons"
• Seems unlikely that this treasure will still be there, if the creature did know its location
• More likely a big bad, realistically

The Gralhunds

• Local nobles, involved with the Zents
• Hired / worked with the cult of Manshoom to retrieve the Stone of Galoor
• Lady Gralhund hired Nim's nimblewotsit to use a fireball to kill Dalakhar and retrieve the stone
• Lord Gralhund is a week-kneed ninnyhammer

Urstall

• The Zent who the Gralhunds were dealing with
• A bit tetchy about having his colleagues blown up. Decided to enter into a heated discussion with Lord Gralhund.

Investigation

Injured dude escaped to house/compound owned by:

The Gralhunds

• Reasonably well off, reasonably well-born, but not top nobles
• Very well connected
• There are connections to the Casselantas - links.
• Rumours that some members are tieflings

Renaer Neverender - young lordling we rescued

Dalakhar, the gnome, was spying on him for Neverender Sr.

Sr. trusts that gnome.

Special Mission to retrieve the Stone of Golorr, afraid the Zentarim / Xanathar guild.

He was going to visit us to take the Stone of Golorr to his father.

Stone is the key to find the riches

Saw lady gralhund the other day - surprisingly quiet otherwise.

Earlier this afternoon, terrible thumping at the door - allowed somebody in, limping, not the sort to be allowed in the front door.

Cult of Manshoom

Day notes: 20/07/2020

From what Lord Gralhund told us:

The Stone of Galorr is an ancient creature, transformed into an artifact.

It knows the location of treasure consisting of half a million dragons

Angry dude:

Things to bear in mind.

• Sector by sector search - over a week, could do other things
• Meeting people - could do that _while_ doing a search
