Abomination Vaults – Session 21

  • The group begins by exploring the scriptorium where they find both the remains of a long dead drow elf AND her ghost.
    • The ‘drow elf ghost administrator’ orders the party to get to work on transcribing books before disappearing into the east-facing wall (which they later find to be hiding a secret door)
    • The skeletal drow elf remains contain:
      • chain-shirt + 1
      • A framed painting of Volluk Azrinae
    • The ghost returns to the room and a fight ensues. The heroes are able to lay the ghost administrator to rest (through force)
  • They explore the hidden room to the east and find a secret workroom that is otherwise unremarkable except that it contains the infernal contract Korlok requested.
  • A second staircase to the 4th level is found
  • The party heads back to Korlok and give him the contract. He finds a loophole that allows him to return to his infernal home. Before leaving he informs the heroes of other devils that he knows reside in the vaults
    • Zebub the janitor that they already know about and have killed
    • Urevian is a contract devil on a lower level and that ‘he is shrewd but is well known for keeping his word’
  • The party finally returns to the ‘main boss room of the level’ and finds The Temple of the Canker
    • A large, 15′ tall sculpture of Belcorra made out of bits of flesh for various ‘sources’ is in the back of the temple
    • 2 canker cultists and a ghoul priest are busy adding to the sculpture as the heroes arrive
    • The priest demands the party give up and become part of the sculpture. They decided NOT to do that so everyone rolls for initiative. The heroes prevail.
    • The priest had a staff of necromancy which the party grabs
  • XP
    • New: 140
    • Total: 149
