45 - Welcome to the Feywild

November 30, 2018

Goal

  • Travel to the Feywild and explore it. Find info about where the girl is.

Setup / Recap

Gave the children to Hannelore Krampitz. Travelled to the Shadowmushroom Woods and defeated some beasts, "activating" the portal.

Locations

  • Shadowmushroom Woods
    • The portal seems to be activated, but anyone trying to use it makes a WIS saving throw and takes 6d8 force damage, half on a success. They need to use their spells to activate it properly.
    • During the teleportation, some players have some "visions"
      • Hilde: Dancing at a ball with the prince of the night
      • Auron: A vision of her younger father fighting against himself... except it looks like the second fighter looks like him but not exactly him (Akmenos). Dion is shooting "How could you? Didn't you care for her? Was that all part of this stupid prophecy?" and the second tiefling answering "You could never understand, you were always and will always be afraid of power".
      • Ramos: Surrounded by darkness, in a forest with leafless trees. One tree stands out bigger than all the others, and a voice calls you "Ramos.. Come... Release.... Reborn....... A power you've been waiting for". As he approaches the tree, sees dead skeletal bodies on the floor everywhere. they wear various armours and symbols he doesn't recognise. In the tree trunk there is a hole. In it, filled with thick blood that starts overflowing as he looks in, what looks like an armour lying in it is revealed. Blinks and sees a giant red-flaming eye à la Sauron, it burns and it's whispering (slowly becoming stronger until it hurts) "RAMOS"
      • Norik: Teleported in the vaults of Arcastle. Spectral (others can't seem to see him). Walking around, you find at the end of a heavily guarded hallway a singular room with inside a huge diamond that seems to have a thunderstorm going on inside. You are no expert, but that diamond looks like it's worth 5'000 gold. A diamond you could use to revive your brother.
      • Levin: A storm outside. Inside a house. vision of Levin as a baby, crying, and Dion, covered in bruises and blood, coming over and saying "I won't let that monster destroy you too. I'll find you a better home. I was too late for your mother, but I won't let him hurt you."
      • Zook: Vision of all the worlds (material plane, feywild, shadowfell, other planed) bound by some magic link. All 3 kinds of magic intertwined and link to a central sphere of white light.
  • Feywild
    • Enter the feywild, surrounded by goats that form a circle around the portal. As soon as the goats are no longer in a circle, the portal stops. 
    • Alos-tul
      • A beautiful small quiet village that once entered, cannot be escaped. The people are smiling and helpful and guide the players to the elder.
      • In the center, a huge tree in which lives the elder.
      • If trying to leave the village, the roads just bring back to the central square.

NPCs

  • Celosia
    • Will gladly welcome the new members of the village. Loyal to Ilara Ashryn. Calls all the villagers her children.
  • Heriss (red hag) and Alacine (pixie)
    • The pixie will follow the party and be curious about the party, not often that new people join the village.
    • Will share with them knowledge about Heriss.
    • Heriss wants out of the village, but needs someone to give up the memory of a loved one for her magic to be powerful enough to break free. The spell will also require the players to drink of a silvery water to help them survive the spell. It's a potion mixed with the Pixie's wings.
    • Will also ask the players to deliver a silver mirror to Fridegunde Niehaus in Arburg.
    • Teleport the party to a desert binome Daywarth (the hags teleport somewhere else)

Encounters

End of session

Threw the potion of Heriss to the ground, and the player are looking for another way to protect themselves from the teleport spell.
