Roll Models D&D

RECAP TIME:

After swindling their way into taking a job for their nemesis, our heroes stole the very thing that Xethir needed to redirect his god: a fragment of an ancient heartstone. That heartstone once formed the core of Xethir's now-dead god, and our heroes got it to their well-connected friend, the Curator, who hid it and rewarded them with some fancy new magic items.

But since their last confrontation, Xethir was alive, once again. With the Curator's help, our heroes teleported straight into the Whispered Word Headquarters in the Capital, where they helped Meredith Vollant figure out the next surge of Evraen Xethir needed to forge another heartstone from the shards was overdue.

They would need to find the other shards first, and they would need to recruit the disparate forces across the Entanglement to prepare. For should Xethir succeed, the otherworldly responsible for the historical Great Unbinding, would walk the entanglement again.

After an evening of pampered luxury in the Whispered Word guest quarters, our heroes rested. Ahmaya learned her bond with Murmer had strengthened, and he now manifested as a crow of leaves and twigs. Jacks cast Dream to their father, where they confronted him as he sat over their mother's deathbed and confessed that she did not die in labour, but of a long suffering, magic disease.

Freya visited her god, Nuravorne, the drowned man, weathered and fishing atop the Lunaric sea. He searched for the other heartstone shards, and offered a warning that Xethir only needee one, though without them all, resurrection would be more difficult.

They went to bed, knowing that the days hence, would be mo easier than the last…

RECAP TIME:

Xethir wanted to resurrect his dead god by forging him a new heartstone, but its broken fragments were scattered across the Entanglement, and our heroes had a plan to stop him.

They defeated Xethir, but he would soon be born again. Then they heard of a job on the Collectorate network that was to obtain a shard from the Verdant Range. They suspected Xethir had put the task of retrieving a heartstone fragment out to market while he was resurrected. So they took the job.

At the briefing for the shard job they realised they would be chaperoned by Leonitis Balren, Ora's brainwashed soon-to-be father-in-law. Leonitis teleported them to Crulhoste, an ancient Bysilman facility in the Verdant range that was by a deathly miasma called the voidblight. Imbued with Leonitis's protection spell, they entered and found flora and fauna falling into dust when touched.

Deep in the facility was the heartstone fragment. It seemed to resonate and possess the voidblight that suffused Crulhoste. Its link with Xethir's god was enough to spout oil that grew into a great serpent, the shard its one, violet eye.

Our heroes defeated the serpent and took the shard, but the ordeal broke Leonitis's mind. In a moment of clarity he agreed to leave for our heroes hideout. They visited the Curator who stored the shard for them, then he warned them that they must attempt to unite the desperate powers against the rise of Xethir. To start, he agreed to teleport them to the headquarters of the Whispered Word in Sehira…

RECAP TIME:

Xethir sought the resurrection of his dead god, the Unbeing, but to do so he needed fragments of the Unbeing's heartstone fragments.

But our heroes were a step ahead. They realised Xethir had put to market the job of finding the first fragment and they would take the job and seize the fragment.

But the person briefing our heroes, was the Clockwork man, the agent of the chains of faith and killer of clerics like Freya. But he didn't recognise our heroes. He revealed where the shard was hidden, and that they were to be chaperoned by Leonitis Balren, Ora's thought imprisoned father-in-law.

Leonitis teleported them to Crulhoste, an ancient Bysilman facility in the Verdant range. Surrounded by a deathly miasma called the voidblight.

Imbued with Leonitis's protection spell, they entered and found Flora and fauna frozen in time, falling into dust when touched. After fighting a Bysilman dreadnaught, our heroes learned that the void blight itself was resonating with a consciousness deeper in Crulhoste. The next room was a puzzle of mirrors and an orb that whispered of the piece of terror.

In the last room, they found the shard. Broken free of its vault, tendrils and runes suspended and lashed out at our heroes as they cut them away. The fight was brutal, knocking Jacks unconscious, and the shard fell. But as it landed, it transformed into a great serpent with one, heartstone eye.

RECAP TIME:

The time arrived for the shard job. The job that they were sure was Xethir looking to expedite the search for his dead god's heartstone fragments. And they would take it in secret.

In Miras Kàlorn, the clockwork man, an agent of the Apotheos, briefed them. They would be chaperoned by non other than Leonitis Balran, Ora's Fiancé's father who was taken by the Apotheos months prior and appeared to be brainwashed. He teleported our heroes to Crulhoste, an ancient Bysilman research facility in the Verdant Range.

Through the facility, our heroes fought a great guardian, then puzzled through a room of whispering mirrors. The final room was a circular once-library. The shard of the Unbeing's shattered heartstone hovered at the centre. The shelves, now ruined and desiccated, were host to a number of large runes that linked to the shard by black tendrils.

They severed the tendrils, releasing worm-like voidligs resistant to damage. the fight was brutal. Jacks was struck down and quickly revived with a potion by Moxie. But the magic was a maelstrom around Jacks, and regardless of their own well-being, they threw themselves back into the fight and were caught by a powerful swarming spell of Freya's

Ora quickly pulled Jacks free before severing the last tendril and the crystal fell into the molten remains of the vault that once sealed it… but an oil pooled from it, coiling about it like a serpent, raising up the shard to rest on it's wedge-shaped head as a flaring, violet eye.

A great, oily black serpent rose up, the violet shard a many-faceted eye, and it shrieked.

After finding the Analyst at the Sehira Artificer Guild reclamation yard, the shardwork machine told Freya that the Chains of Faith gripped the empire, weakening the gods against a growing threat, and an agent of the Chains hunted clerics like her. That agent was the Clockwork Man.

Freya transferred the Analyst's soul into her God's Lantern, and they fled to their briefing for the heartstone fragment job. However, the construct briefing them was in fact the Clockwork man, and it revealed they were to be chaperoned by Leonitis Balren, Ora's soon-to-be father-in-law.

Finally entering the last room, they found the heartstone shard. Broken free of its vault, tendrils and runes suspended it. The shard itself a link to the Unbeing, the god that once used this heartstone as its vessel…

Imbued with Leonitis's protection spell, they entered and found Flora and fauna frozen in time, falling into dust when touched. In the first hall was a great statue surrounded by pillars. Both statue and pillars swathed in eldrich runes that Jacks attempted to read. Maddening themselves in the process but learning that this language was of the Yldrez, the star eaters. Worm whispers. And it was binding the voidblight somehow.

And then the statue woke. Runes flashing over it, a slit of glass glowed on its chest, illuminating a long dead pilot within…

Leonitis teleported then to the location the shard was hidden, Crulhoste, an ancient Bysilman facility in the Verdant range. To enter it, our heroes would have to travel deep in a deathly miasma called the voidblight.

RECAP TIME:

Xethir wanted to resurrect his dead god, the Unbeing, to do so he needed fragments of the Unbeing's hearthstones. But our heroes were a step ahead. They realised Xethir had put the job of finding the heartstone fragment to market and they would take take the job and seize the fragment.

Finally in the greatest city in the world, our heroes explored the lower city of Sehira and prepared to find the Analyst. They quickly escaped a group of elite Opari Knights wanted Ahmaya for the theft of a relic and the murder of her father, the leader of a rebellion in the Opari.

Freya soon found the Analyst at the Artificer Guild reclamation yard. Ripped from its home and dying, the Analyst machine told her that the Chains of Faith gripped the empire weakening the gods, and an agent of the Chains hunted clerics like her. That agent was the Clockwork Man.

After a brutal fight with an Unnanointed scholar trying to destroy the Analyst, Freya transferred the soul that had come to inhabit the Analyst in her God's Lantern, and they fled to the Inn where they prepared for their briefing: the heartstone fragment job was about to begin.

They met with a construct of the Apotheos, under a bridge in Miras Kàlorn and successfully posing as adventurers with no skin in the game. But the construct was in fact the Clockwork man, and it revealed they were to be chaperoned on this mission by non other that Leonitis Balren, Ora's soon-to-be father-in-law.

RECAP TIME:

Our heroes were a step ahead of their nemesis, Xethir – they simply had to find the first heartstone fragment of his dead god before his minions could. Tomorrow they would get their briefing with a construct of the Apotheos, under a bridge in Miras Kàlorn.

But first, they explored the lower city and prepared to find the Analyst, and quickly discovered that a group of elite Opari Knights wanted Ahmaya for the theft of a relic and the murder of her father, the leader of a rebellion in the Opari.

With some crafty spellwork, they escaped and Freya soon found the analyst at the Artificer Guild reclamation yard. Ripped from its home and dying, the Analyst machine told her that the chains of faith gripped the empire and an agent of it hunted clerics like her. The clockwork man.

Then they were attacked by strange tungen creatures that seemed to be controlled by someone – and quickly followed by the Opari Knights who still tailed them.

The fight was brutal, the tungen and their slave master defeated, and Sentinel and Moxie managed to trap the Knights in a wall of force filled with magical darkness. After Freya transferred the soul that inhabited the analyst in her God's Lantern, they fled.

RECAP TIME:

Finally arriving in Sehira, Freya was keen to rescue the Analyst, a great shardwork calculator that was being scrapped for becoming unreliable and seemingly growning conscious. She had interacted with the machine long ago where instead of printing records, it had asked her for help.

So before they took to the lofty heights of Miras Kàlorn for the mysterious shard job, they explored the lower city and prepared to find the Analyst.

But they soon found out that that a group of elite Opari Knights were following them, and they wanted Ahmaya.

And just as Freya met the analyst and learned vital information about what was happening to clerics like her and the chains of faith, they were attacked by strange tongen creatures that seemed to be controlled by someone.

And the Opari Knights weren't far behind
