Prestidigitation

Transmutation cantrip

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 10 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Up to 1 hour

This spell is a minor magical trick that novice spellcasters use for practice. You create one of the following magical effects within range:

• You create an instantaneous, harmless sensory effect, such as a shower of sparks, a puff of wind, faint musical notes, or an odd odor.
• You instantaneously light or snuff out a candle, a torch, or a small campfire.
• You instantaneously clean or soil an object no larger than 1 cubic foot.
• You chill, warm, or flavor up to 1 cubic foot of nonliving material for 1 hour.
• You make a color, a small mark, or a symbol appear on an object or a surface for 1 hour.
• You create a nonmagical trinket or an illusory image that can fit in your hand and that lasts until the end of your next turn.

If you cast this spell multiple times, you can have up to three of its non-instantaneous effects active at a time, and you can dismiss such an effect as an action.

Level 1 Spells

Silvery Barbs

1st-level enchantment

---

• Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when a creature you can see within 60 feet of yourself succeeds on an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw
• Range: 60 feet
• Components: V
• Duration: Instantaneous

---

You magically distract the triggering creature and turn its momentary uncertainty into encouragement for another creature. The triggering creature must reroll the d20 and use the lower roll.

You can then choose a different creature you can see within range (you can choose yourself). The chosen creature has advantage on the next attack roll, ability check, or saving throw it makes within 1 minute. A creature can be empowered by only one use of this spell at a time.

---

📕 Find Familiar

1st-level conjuration (ritual)

---

• Casting Time: 1 hour
• Range: 10 feet
• Components: V, S, M (10 gp worth of charcoal, incense, and herbs that must be consumed by fire in a brass brazier)
• Duration: Instantaneous

---

You gain the service of a familiar, a spirit that takes an animal form you choose: bat, cat, crab, frog (toad), hawk, lizard, octopus, owl, poisonous snake, fish (quipper), rat, raven, sea horse, spider, or weasel. Appearing in an unoccupied space within range, the familiar has the statistics of the chosen form, though it is a celestial, fey, or fiend (your choice) instead of a beast.

Additional animal form choices may be available at the DM's discretion.

Your familiar acts independently of you, but it always obeys your commands. In combat, it rolls its own initiative and acts on its own turn. A familiar can't attack, but it can take other actions as normal.

Spellbook

📕 Alarm

1st-level abjuration (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a tiny bell and a piece of fine silver wire)
• Duration: 8 hours

You set an alarm against unwanted intrusion. Choose a door, a window, or an area within range that is no larger than a 20-foot cube. Until the spell ends, an alarm alerts you whenever a Tiny or larger creature touches or enters the warded area. When you cast the spell, you can designate creatures that won't set off the alarm. You also choose whether the alarm is mental or audible.

A mental alarm alerts you with a ping in your mind if you are within 1 mile of the warded area. This ping awakens you if you are sleeping.

An audible alarm produces the sound of a hand bell for 10 seconds within 60 feet.

📕 Tenser's Floating Disk

1st-level conjuration (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a drop of mercury)
• Duration: 1 hour

This spell creates a circular, horizontal plane of force, 3 feet in diameter and 1 inch thick, that floats 3 feet above the ground in an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within range. The disk remains for the duration, and can hold up to 500 pounds. If more weight is placed on it, the spell ends, and everything on the disk falls to the ground.

The disk is immobile while you are within 20 feet of it. If you move more than 20 feet away from it, the disk follows you so that it remains within 20 feet of you. It can move across uneven terrain, up or down stairs, slopes and the like, but it can't cross an elevation change of 10 feet or more. For example, the disk can't move across a 10-foot-deep pit, nor could it leave such a pit if it was created at the bottom.

If you move more than 100 feet from the disk (typically because it can't move around an obstacle to follow you), the spell ends.

📕 Comprehend Languages

1st-level divination (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self
• Components: V, S, M (a pinch of soot and salt)
• Duration: 1 hour

For the duration, you understand the literal meaning of any spoken language that you hear. You also understand any written language that you see, but you must be touching the surface on which the words are written. It takes about 1 minute to read one page of text.

This spell doesn't decode secret messages in a text or a glyph, such as an arcane sigil, that isn't part of a written language.

📕 Illusory Script

1st-level illusion (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: Touch
• Components: S, M (a lead-based ink worth at least 10 gp, which the spell consumes)
• Duration: 10 days

You write on parchment, paper, or some other suitable writing material and imbue it with a potent illusion that lasts for the duration.

To you and any creatures you designate when you cast the spell, the writing appears normal, written in your hand, and conveys whatever meaning you intended when you wrote the text. To all others, the writing appears as if it were written in an unknown or magical script that is unintelligible. Alternatively, you can cause the writing to appear to be an entirely different message, written in a different hand and language, though the language must be one you know.

Should the spell be dispelled, the original script and the illusion both disappear.

A creature with truesight can read the hidden message.

Spellbook

📕 Unseen Servant

1st-level conjuration (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 60 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a piece of string and a bit of wood)
• Duration: 1 hour

This spell creates an invisible, mindless, shapeless, Medium force that performs simple tasks at your command until the spell ends. The servant springs into existence in an unoccupied space on the ground within range. It has AC 10, 1 hit point, and a Strength of 2, and it can't attack. If it drops to 0 hit points, the spell ends.

Once on each of your turns as a bonus action, you can mentally command the servant to move up to 15 feet and interact with an object. The servant can perform simple tasks that a human servant could do, such as fetching things, cleaning, mending, folding clothes, lighting fires, serving food, and pouring wine. Once you give the command, the servant performs the task to the best of its ability until it completes the task, then waits for your next command.

If you command the servant to perform a task that would move it more than 60 feet away from you, the spell ends.

📕 Detect Magic

1st-level divination (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

For the duration, you sense the presence of magic within 30 feet of you. If you sense magic in this way, you can use your action to see a faint aura around any visible creature or object in the area that bears magic, and you learn its school of magic, if any.

The spell can penetrate most barriers, but it is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt.

📕 Identify

1st-level divination (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (a pearl worth at least 100 gp and an owl feather)
• Duration: Instantaneous

You choose one object that you must touch throughout the casting of the spell. If it is a magic item or some other magic-imbued object, you learn its properties and how to use them, whether it requires attunement to use, and how many charges it has, if any. You learn whether any spells are affecting the item and what they are. If the item was created by a spell, you learn which spell created it.

If you instead touch a creature throughout the casting, you learn what spells, if any, are currently affecting it.

Level 2 Spells

Mirror Image

2nd-level illusion

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self
• Components: V, S
• Duration: 1 minute

Three illusory duplicates of yourself appear in your space. Until the spell ends, the duplicates move with you and mimic your actions, shifting position so it's impossible to track which image is real. You can use your action to dismiss the illusory duplicates.

Each time a creature targets you with an attack during the spell's duration, roll a d20 to determine whether the attack instead targets one of your duplicates.

If you have three duplicates, you must roll a 6 or higher to change the attack's target to a duplicate. With two duplicates, you must roll an 8 or higher. With one duplicate, you must roll an 11 or higher.

A duplicate's AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier. If an attack hits a duplicate, the duplicate is destroyed. A duplicate can be destroyed only by an attack that hits it. It ignores all other damage and effects. The spell ends when all three duplicates are destroyed.

A creature is unaffected by this spell if it can't see, if it relies on senses other than sight, such as blindsight, or if it can perceive illusions as false, as with truesight.

Phantasmal Force

2nd-level illusion

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 60 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a bit of fleece)
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You craft an illusion that takes root in the mind of a creature that you can see within range. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, you create a phantasmal object, creature, or other visible phenomenon of your choice that is no larger than a 10-foot cube and that is perceivable only to the target for the duration. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.

The phantasm includes sound, temperature, and other stimuli, also evident only to the creature.

The target can use its action to examine the phantasm with an Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If the check succeeds, the target realizes that the phantasm is an illusion, and the spell ends.

While a target is affected by the spell, the target treats the phantasm as if it were real. The target rationalizes any illogical outcomes from interacting with the phantasm. For example, a target attempting to walk across a phantasmal bridge that spans a chasm falls once it steps onto the bridge. If the target survives the fall, it still believes that the bridge exists and comes up with some other explanation for its fall—it was pushed, it slipped, or a strong wind might have knocked it off.

An affected target is so convinced of the phantasm's reality that it can even take damage from the illusion. A phantasm created to appear as a creature can attack the target. Similarly, a phantasm created to appear as fire, a pool of acid, or lava can burn the target. Each round on your turn, the phantasm can deal 1d6 psychic damage to the target if it is in the phantasm's area or within 5 feet of the phantasm, provided that the illusion is of a creature or hazard that could logically deal damage, such as by attacking. The target perceives the damage as a type appropriate to the illusion.

Tasha's Mind Whip

2nd-level enchantment

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 90 feet
• Components: V
• Duration: 1 round

You psychically lash out at one creature you can see within range. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 3d6 psychic damage, and it can't take a reaction until the end of its next turn. Moreover, on its next turn, it must choose whether it gets a move, an action, or a bonus action; it gets only one of the three. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage and suffers none of the spell's other effects.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 2nd. The creatures must be within 30 feet of each other when you target them.

📕 Magic Mouth

2nd-level illusion (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a small bit of honeycomb and jade dust worth at least 10 gp, which the spell consumes)
• Duration: Until dispelled

You implant a message within an object in range, a message that is uttered when a trigger condition is met. Choose an object that you can see and that isn't being worn or carried by another creature. Then speak the message, which must be 25 words or less, though it can be delivered over as long as 10 minutes. Finally, determine the circumstance that will trigger the spell to deliver your message.

When that circumstance occurs, a magical mouth appears on the object and recites the message in your voice and at the same volume you spoke. If the object you chose has a mouth or something that looks like a mouth (for example, the mouth of a statue), the magical mouth appears there so that the words appear to come from the object's mouth. When you cast this spell, you can have the spell end after it delivers its message, or it can remain and repeat its message whenever the trigger occurs.

The triggering circumstance can be as general or as detailed as you like, though it must be based on visual or audible conditions that occur within 30 feet of the object. For example, you could instruct the mouth to speak when any creature moves within 30 feet of the object or when a silver bell rings within 30 feet of it.

Spellbook

📕 Gentle Repose

2nd-level necromancy (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (a pinch of salt and one copper piece placed on each of the corpse's eyes, which must remain there for the duration)
• Duration: 10 days

You touch a corpse or other remains. For the duration, the target is protected from decay and can't become undead.

The spell also effectively extends the time limit on raising the target from the dead, since days spent under the influence of this spell don't count against the time limit of spells such as raise dead.

📕 Skywrite

2nd-level transmutation (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Sight
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour

You cause up to ten words to form in a part of the sky you can see. The words appear to be made of cloud and remain in place for the spell's duration. The words dissipate when the spell ends. A strong wind can disperse the clouds and end the spell early.

📚📚 Augury

2nd-level divination (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: Self
• Components: V, S, M (specially marked sticks, bones, or similar tokens worth at least 25 gp)
• Duration: Instantaneous

By casting gem-inlaid sticks, rolling dragon bones, laying out ornate cards, or employing some other divining tool, you receive an omen from an otherworldly entity about the results of a specific course of action that you plan to take within the next 30 minutes. The DM chooses from the following possible omens:

• Weal, for good results
• Woe, for bad results
• Weal and woe, for both good and bad results
• Nothing, for results that aren't especially good or bad

The spell doesn't take into account any possible circumstances that might change the outcome, such as the casting of additional spells or the loss or gain of a companion.

If you cast the spell two or more times before completing your next long rest, there is a cumulative 25 percent chance for each casting after the first that you get a random reading. The DM makes this roll in secret.

Level 3 Spells

📕 Phantom Steed

3rd-level illusion (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: 1 hour

A Large quasi-real, horselike creature appears on the ground in an unoccupied space of your choice within range. You decide the creature's appearance, but it is equipped with a saddle, bit, and bridle. Any of the equipment created by the spell vanishes in a puff of smoke if it is carried more than 10 feet away from the steed.

For the duration, you or a creature you choose can ride the steed. The creature uses the statistics for a riding horse, except it has a speed of 100 feet and can travel 10 miles in an hour, or 13 miles at a fast pace. When the spell ends, the steed gradually fades, giving the rider 1 minute to dismount. The spell ends if you use an action to dismiss it or if the steed takes any damage.

📕 Feign Death

3rd-level necromancy (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (a pinch of graveyard dirt)
• Duration: 1 hour

You touch a willing creature and put it into a cataleptic state that is indistinguishable from death.

For the spell's duration, or until you use an action to touch the target and dismiss the spell, the target appears dead to all outward inspection and to spells used to determine the target's status. The target is blinded and incapacitated, and its speed drops to 0. The target has resistance to all damage except psychic damage. If the target is diseased or poisoned when you cast the spell, or becomes diseased or poisoned while under the spell's effect, the disease and poison have no effect until the spell ends.

📕 Leomund's Tiny Hut

3rd-level evocation (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: Self (10-foot-radius hemisphere)
• Components: V, S, M (a small crystal bead)
• Duration: 8 hours

A 10-foot-radius immobile dome of force springs into existence around and above you and remains stationary for the duration. The spell ends if you leave its area.

Nine creatures of Medium size or smaller can fit inside the dome with you. The spell fails if its area includes a larger creature or more than nine creatures. Creatures and objects within the dome when you cast this spell can move through it freely. All other creatures and objects are barred from passing through it. Spells and other magical effects can't extend through the dome or be cast through it. The atmosphere inside the space is comfortable and dry, regardless of the weather outside.

Until the spell ends, you can command the interior to become dimly lit or dark. The dome is opaque from the outside, of any color you choose, but it is transparent from the inside.

📕 Water Breathing

3rd-level transmutation (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a short reed or piece of straw)
• Duration: 24 hours

This spell grants up to ten willing creatures you can see within range the ability to breathe underwater until the spell ends. Affected creatures also retain their normal mode of respiration.

Level 4 Spells

📕 Divination

4th-level divination (ritual)

---

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self
• Components: V, S, M (incense and a sacrificial offering appropriate to your religion, together worth at least 25 gp, which the spell consumes)
• Duration: Instantaneous

---

Your magic and an offering put you in contact with a god or a god's servants. You ask a single question concerning a specific goal, event, or activity to occur within 7 days. The DM offers a truthful reply. The reply might be a short phrase, a cryptic rhyme, or an omen.

The spell doesn't take into account any possible circumstances that might change the outcome, such as the casting of additional spells or the loss or gain of a companion.

If you cast the spell two or more times before finishing your next long rest, there is a cumulative 25 percent chance for each casting after the first that you get a random reading. The DM makes this roll in secret.

📚📚 Drawmij's Instant Summons

6th-level conjuration (ritual)

---

• Casting Time: 1 minute
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (a sapphire worth 1,000 gp)
• Duration: Until dispelled

---

You touch an object weighing 10 pounds or less whose longest dimension is 6 feet or less. The spell leaves an invisible mark on its surface and invisibly inscribes the name of the item on the sapphire you use as the material component. Each time you cast this spell, you must use a different sapphire.

At any time thereafter, you can use your action to speak the item's name and crush the sapphire. The item instantly appears in your hand regardless of physical or planar distances, and the spell ends.

If another creature is holding or carrying the item, crushing the sapphire doesn't transport the item to you, but instead you learn who the creature possessing the object is and roughly where that creature is located at that moment.

Dispel magic or a similar effect successfully applied to the sapphire ends this spell's effect.

Background

Much of my past is a mystery, even to myself. I only remember the past 50 years, with the rest of my life no longer a memory. No clue about my family or anything. I just remember my time as a slave in the pirate community. I spent my time working my way up for freedom and as I learned magic and fighting (as well as thievery) I earned my freedom.

Now I seek out injustice and adventure. If I come across my past, that works too.

Character Backstory

I once thought about my past.. I am now concerned with my present. I am trying to work with this group to learn more about the world and see how I can help those in need...

Criminal Specialty: Pickpocket

I don't remember much of my first 50 years of life. I feel as if my memory was either blocked or taken from me. I remember flashes of a happy home life then being taken away. Then it gets turbulent. Slavery, ships, taught to steal.

All I have is a body of scars that I tend to hide that remind me of the past years of slavery and pain.

I earned my freedom and rank.

• Pallid Elf Rogue trained in the Arcane Trickster subclass

Part of The Revelry which harbor at Darktow Island

--

Recently I and Ziva helped free some slaves and I really liked that. I don't recall my past, but what I do remember was a life of servitude. I also find the current group is beneficial to me financially and in finding others to free from such bonds. I am not currently as interested in my past as I fear it may hold things I shouldn't know...

So for now I will continue in my magical pursuits and in finding ways to help and just "jump" into things.

When I got free I went through a bit of a free-spirit period. I explored sex with many different people of various races, cultures, and sexes. Some sought stronger relationships than I was willing to offer. I then shifted my focus to the next thing -- exploring magic. I was already learning a bit and it helped me get my freedom, but now it was a new curiosity to explore. I came across the slave rumors and it motivated me to investigate the situation.

Backstory

Andrew Solmor

Young Andrew (LG male human noble) recently inherited his family's fleet of fishing boats after the untimely death of his mother, Petra. He's the youngest person ever to be elected to the council. Brash and inexperienced, Andrew is a slight man with sharp features and a toothy smile. His recent forays into trade have made him a local celebrity. Since Andrew owns both a fishing fleet and several trading vessels, he can sell his catch at a highly competitive price. And he can offer better prices for the other fishers in town to sell to him, since his catch brings in so much more profit.

Chessia Wakiam

a talented songstress and dancer renowned throughout the Menagerie Coast for her sweet voice and enchanting allure, Chessia is a popular performer in many opulent social circles across Port Damali. Chessia uses her charming persona to deflect suspicion as she weaves her way into the lives of politicians and guild masters to steer them toward Myraid interests. She trusts me because we had a "friends w/ benefits" thing for a long time whenever I came into town.

Clovis Concord

Westward flies the herald of the Raven Queen. It bursts through the clouds above the western mountains and emerges into a land blessed by sun. A sea of lush jungle stretches out beneath the raven, until eventually green gives way to golden sand, and then to a boundless, sapphire sea. Ships swarm on that sea like a cloud of gnats, engulfed by flames and the sound of cannon fire. They fight for freedom.

The Clovis Concord is a republic of city-states lining the Menagerie Coast, the westernmost shore of Wildemount. This tropical region is rich with history and known for a lively, free-spirited culture that contrasts sharply with Wildemount's other, politically narrow-minded nations.

Campaigns set on the Menagerie Coast are often nautical, exploring the conflict between the law of the Clovis Concord and the chaos of the Revelry pirates. They can also investigate the jungles that line the coast and the ancient ruins hidden within their verdant boughs.

Scarlet Brotherhood

The Scarlet Brotherhood claims that the bloodline of its followers traces back to an ancient empire, the Suel Imperium, and their goal is to restore the old Suloise noble houses to prominence in the world. As scions of a realm that once enjoyed unmatched arcane power and a vast dominion, its members see themselves as superior to all other folk and the only ones fit to rule.

For decades, this group has been concocting a conspiracy to spread fear, chaos, and uncertainty across the land. When the time is right, the Brotherhood will strike to seize the reins in kingdoms all across the world. Already its assassins have slain those who might oppose their sinister plans. In almost every court in the land, from the most remote backwater barony to the imperial courts of world powers, the Brotherhood's agents have quietly assumed positions of influence. In Saltmarsh, the Brotherhood supports councilman Anders Solmor and his family's trade cartel. They hope to use Anders to destabilize the region, weaken the crown, and clear the way for the Scarlet Brotherhood to seize control. The Brotherhood arranges for the Solmor ships to meet with eager merchants in distant ports who pay well above market value for his goods, ensuring his popularity and dependence on Brotherhood contacts. The Brotherhood plans to surround him with their advisers and functionaries to ensure that Saltmarsh develops under their control. They intend to ignite open war between Keoland and the Sea Princes, leaving both realms battered and weakened while the Brotherhood moves in.

Unlike the other factions in Saltmarsh, there is no good side to the Scarlet Brotherhood. As unrepentant megalomaniacs, they are villains through and through.

The Revelry

The Revelry's allies within the Clovis Concord will tell you that they turned to piracy because of the concord's excessive taxes and unjust laws. Perhaps it began that way, but over time, a movement that began as public dissent turned to lawful protest, which then became violent action. Eventually, a union of disenfranchised salvage ships and trade vessels fought their way into the Dragshallow Reef and violently overthrew the small sanctuary port of Darktow.

After establishing a lawless base of operations on the isle of Darktow, these pirates began stalking the well-known shipping routes of the Menagerie Coast to harry, intimidate, steal from, and destroy passing ships that flew under the concord's banner. Calling themselves The Revelry, these "free folk of the sea" have now spent over forty years terrorizing the Lucidian Ocean. With loose morals and a twisted code of honor, they take what they want from less protected targets while living a life of debauchery in the well-guarded haven of Darktow. The Revelry lacks a uniform symbol, instead changing the colors and symbols of its banner regularly to avoid counterfeiting and infiltration.

The Revelry is governed by a collective of captains, all of whom defer to the final word of the Plank King, a capricious monarch who never leaves Darktow. The original Plank King, Hunnis Breeah, ruled for twenty-five years before a goliath named Wyatt Maranoss challenged him for his increasingly lackadaisical attitude—and won. Now Breeah is dead, and Wyatt claims the title of Plank King.

Backstory

Goals

While the Revelry's original goal was to scare the concord into revoking their soaring taxes, its charter has changed. The Clovis Concord refused to change its laws, and the pirates found a certain dark joy in theft and murder on the waves. The original members of the Revelry (and now their children) have no plans to return to their former lives as legitimate traders. They intend to maintain and grow their operations across the Lucidian Ocean, while continuing to defend and improve their fortress in Darktow, finding intricate ways of reinforcing the reefs with dangerous traps and impassable barriers.

The Revelry has since expanded their interests beyond mere piracy. Relics and secrets dating back to the Age of Arcanum and beyond are rumored to be scattered all across the coast and the Swavain Islands. Some scavengers have returned to Darktow with proof of such artifacts, and a new kind of aspiring treasure seeker has emerged within the Revelry: one who seeks to plunder from the dead rather than the living. The drive to outdo their fellow sailors has already placed several ships in serious danger.

Relationships

Each member of the Revelry known to the Clovis Concord is considered a major criminal, amassing an ever-growing bounty with each infraction they commit and every ship they raid. Those arrested are generally executed and strapped to the rocks outside Brokenbank as a warning.

Some of the more affluent Marquesian merchant guilds that have little investment in concord shipments use back-channels to pay off the Revelry and fly specific colors when crossing their territory to avoid being boarded.

Figures of Interest

Whether it be for glory, for gold, or for freedom from law on the ocean waves, the banner of the Revelry calls many to join the cause.

Wyatt Maranoss, the Plank King p57 Chaotic evil, male goliath After seizing the mantle of Plank King, Wyatt quickly established his position with displays of tactical brilliance, fair judgment, and brutal retribution. Wyatt is eager to maintain the approval of his captains and often throws bawdy, drunken celebrations for his subordinates and the people of Darktow to offset periods of unrest or frustration. Initially friendly and welcoming to an almost unsettling degree, Wyatt has a reputation for abruptly turning into a cruel and violent dictator when his trust and hospitality are violated.

Captain Alyson Paij p57 Chaotic good, female human Known to many as the "Screaming Knuckle," Alyson is the loud and joyful captain of the ship The Ill Hand who enjoys a good brawl as much as she appreciates a stiff drink. Paij took to piracy because of her hatred for the Clovis Concord, but she is driven by an uncompromising sense of moral duty to the downtrodden. She never raids civilian vessels, and she does her best to rein in the Revelry's cruelest captains and focus their efforts on those who deserve to have their goods stolen.

Backstory

Old Lady of the Gingerbread House ^M053

Magical General

A secondary general who focuses on spellcasting. He protects himself with illusory duplicates (mirror images) and a cloak of fire that damages attackers. He primarily uses cold-based magic, repeatedly blasting the heroes with cones of freezing energy.

Enemy Mages

Spellcasters responsible for maintaining portals that summon enemy foot soldiers. One was killed early in the fight, and the party focused on eliminating the second one to stop the flow of reinforcements. They used offensive spells like magic missile.

Bob

An allied druid who fought alongside the party, primarily in the form of a monkey. He was injured during the battle and forced back into his humanoid form.

Allied Guards

Friendly soldiers assisting the party in the battle. They provided support by firing volleys of arrows from the walls and engaging enemy foot soldiers on the ground.

Foot Soldiers

The rank-and-file enemies of the opposing army, continuously summoned through a magical portal. They swarmed the battlefield, attacking the heroes and their allies.

Colossal General

A massive, flying humanoid general with cracked skin, leading the enemy forces. He was searching for 'The Wanderer' and was willing to capture and interrogate party members to find him. After failing to get information, he ordered a retreat and flew off to continue his search elsewhere.

Enemy Mage

An enemy spellcaster who fought alongside the generals. He could surround himself in a fiery shield that damaged melee attackers. He was defeated by the party.

Assassins

Stealthy enemies armed with poisoned crossbows and shortbows. Several fought alongside the generals, with two emerging from hiding in caravans late in the battle. All were defeated.

Bob

A friendly druid who was knocked unconscious early in the fight. Despite the party's victory, a mass healing spell failed to revive him, suggesting he was truly dead. Omidonn prepared to cast a spell to resurrect him at the end of the session.

The Wanderer

A mysterious, magical individual also known as Benedict Fennwick. The main enemy general was obsessively searching for him. The party protected his location, remembering he stayed behind to guard a previous gate they had defended.

around Adventure | Ch.04, Session Jamie 020

Sometimes I still think of my past, and try to recall what I can. I feel like things keep changing, but the group I have found myself a part of has helped me find some semblance of stability (in it's own way.)

I still have no clue what day this is, how long we've been together, or even what lands we currently are in. I still have my curiosities about things, but they have shifted so much into my arcane studies so my mind doesn't go too far into the days of my youth which I have not recalled ever. Those 50 years are probably gone, and based on how I lived my life after I won my freedom it might be better that way.

My oldest memories were toiling away as a servant, a slave to those pirates. I worked hard, but my body is heavily scarred from the beatings and lashings I took, most of them before the earliest of my memories it would seem. But I do recall getting many of the lashes that would leave their mark. After those last "trials and tribulations" it took for me to prove to the pirates that I was no longer a slave and earned my freedom I have many memories of the days that I partook in too many "celebrations". Nights (and days) of drink and woman and I recall a few men too, no shame. None of those were worthy relationships though. Just moments of hedonism meant to help forget the past that I could remember. Ironic, a long history taken away and now I wanted to take away what history I could recall.

Then came along Chessia Wakiam, who helped me find a purpose. I began a life of seeking slaves to free and a thirst for arcane knowledge. The bits of magic I had learned on those ships which helped me convince that pirate Captain Renshaw Vance to let me be free was nothing compared to what I have learned to this point, especially with my command of these ritualistic magic spells. Through Chessia I was able to meet Andrew Solmor who was so instrumental in me finding my way to Saltmarsh and then of course to the BASTARDS. I have not seen presence of the Scarlet Brotherhood (which I still seek to destroy in any way possible), or the few I trust and used to rely upon in The Revelry.

The BASTARDS have gotten past the strange events where they were willing to torture individuals, which I still cannot support but at least it has not reoccurred, so I am willing to stick around with them. Besides, I am probably healthier and wealthier than I've ever been and I think their strengths have been a part of this. Now we shall see how the tavern that the monk and I are opening up will help me keep on rumors, possible adventures, and of course knowledge.

New entry, around the time of Gauntlgrym... not exactly, but a generalization of what was written:

From time to time I steal some tobacco or purchase small amounts, and at night I like to light up the special pipe that shows me great moments in my past. Hoping for something from before the days of slavery... lately I've hoped for it less and I've come to enjoy the moments that spring up from these past few months as this party travels. I have never cared for loyalty, due to my time as a slave and as a pirate... but I think I now understand the draw of it. I feel very loyal and protective of those in this band, and they have saved my life a few times -- granted I am sure I would not be in so many dangerous situations if I was stop traveling with them. But who is to say, with the dangers in this world.

For now, I am not concerned of my past and only welcome what adventures may come our way.

Heard about a smuggling ring at Empty Net, seedy bar on stilts. I ordered an ale and there was a dirty old drunk speaking about the house east of town. It is haunted and has a treasure in the basement. Gold in the library. Ghosts. Something about the second day and hightide or something (This old man was Dodd.)

We ended up getting into a fight with some snakes.

I found a stone out of place on the chimney above the fireplace. Removing the stone reveals a hidden compartment. Additionally, characters who approach the fireplace notice a collection of mouse bones spilling out from the hearth.

A swarm of insects (spiders) lurks in the crevices of the fireplace and chimney. The spiders flood forth with obvious irritation if any creatures move to within 5 feet of the fireplace.

$$ 30 cp & 2 pouches of alchemical powders (5 gp ea.) $$

It hurt me and I attacked it.

9. Kitchen This kitchen is dirty and damp, with patches of gray mold and cobwebs on the floor, walls, and ceiling. In the southwest corner is some iron cooking equipment with a chimney above. Next to it, under the window, is a cracked and discolored stone sink. To the right of the sink, a small, closed wooden cupboard is fixed to the wall about five feet above floor level. Against the far wall, a flight of wooden stairs leads upward from west to east; the woodwork of the staircase is decayed, and a few of the treads are missing.

---

10. Scullery This room displays the effects of damp and decay more than most. Mold grows in patches on the floor, walls, and ceiling. A large copper cask, split, discolored and empty, stands under the window, with a small heap of crockery shards on the floor beside it. Stairs lead down into what is presumably a cellar. There appeared to be tracks leading to the stairs. As we descended the stairs we heard hideous screams—as if of a soul in torment—rise from the cellar below. Seems there was a trap with a magic mouth spell on the stairs. stairs, footprints, back door, dirty sink, nasty table. More damp/decay.

---

20. Wine Cellar Shoulder-height wooden bottle racks line the north and west walls here. There appear to be no intact bottles left in the racks and shattered bottles cover the floor. Against the east wall, at the foot of the stairs, rest two large metal storage bins that appear to be empty. In the center of the room lies a human corpse clad in plate mail; a longsword lies by the corpse's right side, and a large shield covers its legs.

There was a secret door here to the South. The bottle racks were empty, but we did find one that had rolled under a rack. Its label bearing the image of a jauntily dressed Unicorn

Basement: the walls have wine racks, bottles on the floor and at the foot of the stairs are storage bins. In the center of the room is a corpse in plate with longsword and shield.

Treasure. coin purse that holds 7 gp and 15 sp

The ten wooden footlockers are locked. One can be opened by a character who succeeds on a DC 12 Dexterity check using thieves' tools. A locker can also be pried open by a character who uses a crowbar and makes a successful DC 12 Strength check. The lockers contain personal effects; each also has a coin purse that holds 7 gp and 15 sp.

Cellar, 10 crude beds and food stuff with stairs leading up. There were tracks to the Southwest, scrapping.

Doors to the East. The North was normal, clean and comfy. Well lit. There was a wood locker at the foot of the bed and the table had a candlestick. A box under the table and 3 books over the shelf.

---

22. Sanbalet's Private Quarters Unlike the barracks, this small room holds comfortable furnishings and appears to be well cared for. A comfortable-looking bed in the northwest corner has a wooden locker at its foot. A small wooden table stands against the east wall, with a padded leather chair beside it. On the table, a brass three-branch candlestick with three burning candles provides the room with bright light. The candles, though not fresh, are far from spent. Under the table is a small wooden box and an unlit bullseye lantern with a movable shutter over the lens. On a shelf above the table sit three books. In the northeast corner is a closed wooden wardrobe. This room was vacant. Sanbalet's books consists of the following volumes:

• A volume of erotic poetry, fully illustrated
• A naval almanac listing tide times for the area of coast around Saltmarsh (a total of one hundred miles of coastline is covered)
• A treatise concerning the demigod Iuz and its minions Inside the third book is a sheet of parchment featuring a few simple words and phrases in the Common tongue and their equivalents in Goblin. The words include "stop," "fight," "lift," "come," and so forth—key words used by Sanbalet to instruct his hobgoblin mercenaries.

Bullseye Lantern. The lantern is used to signal the Sea Ghost. Someone who makes a successful DC 10 Intelligence (Investigation) check realizes that the lantern is used only infrequently.

Treasure. The three books are worth 10 gp each. A fancy floor-length oilskin coat (5 gp) hangs in the wardrobe. Its sleeves contain numerous pockets (empty), and it is trimmed in iridescent green silk. And a hidden compartment under the table that holds Sanbalet's spellbook. The book contains all the spells Sanbalet has prepared.

• Parchment with common and goblin phrases. "Stop Fight Come Lift" Books 10gp each.
• Spellbook. Box & Lantern, 12 candles, flint & steel, parchment details how to communicate with a ship.
• Fancy oilskin coat (Wroxi)
• Footlocker at the bed with small clothes.
• Cursed Luckstone

Cursed Luckstone Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement) This flat, gray-and-black river stone is inscribed with an unknown arcane symbol and feels cool to the touch. While carrying the stone, you can gain advantage on one ability check of your choice. The stone can't be used this way again until the next dawn. Curse. This item is cursed. Attuning to it curses you until you are targeted by a remove curse spell or similar magic. As long as you remain cursed, you cannot discard the stone, which immediately teleports back into your pocket or pack. After you use the stone's magic, your next two ability checks are made with disadvantage.

27. Storage Cavern This cavern, like the passage leading to it, is well lit by torches held in simple iron brackets around the walls. You can see five small bolts of cloth stacked against the wall to your left, and to your right are eight small casks in a neat row.

Treasure. The five bolts of silk are worth 50 gp each, and the eight casks of brandy are worth 10 gp apiece at market, though the merchants of Saltmarsh recognize the goods as stolen if the characters try to sell them there.

Sanbalet carries a pipe of remembrance (see appendix B) and a set of masterfully crafted loaded gaming dice (20 gp). The hobgoblin wears a suit of mariner's armor (scale mail). Sanbalet A tall man with a shaved head and piercing green eyes, the leader of the smugglers is as charismatic as he is cunning. Sanbalet is a plotting nemesis who prefers manipulation to direct action. It is no accident that his gang occupies the old house, since the promise of hidden knowledge initially drew him here.

In the cave we found: Storage area, silk, barrels & casks, clubs, hobgoblin, bandit, Ned, and a scout. Behind the barrels. Gentleman.

Big fight. I think I killed someone. Hobgoblin, bandit, Net, Scout, (others?) all dead ☠️

• $$ Pipe of Remembrance Wondrous item, common This long, delicate wooden pipe features a bowl made from smooth river stone. When the pipe is lit, smoke exhaled from it does not dissipate, instead lingering around the bearer. After 10 minutes, the smoke forms moving shapes that reenact the bearer's most impressive and heroic achievements for 5 minutes. When this realistic performance is complete, the smoke dissipates. The pipe can't be used this way again until the next dawn.

Adventure | Ch.01, Session Jamie 002

Recap

The party is at a haunted house, on assignment for Eda Oweland to explore the house for a possible location of a new dock. Dodd led us here. They cleared it out and took a long rest.

Thunsheer (4) 26, y.0001

Haunted House, East of Saltmarsh

They heard noises. Sace was first watch then Ziva.

Sace snuck ahead and found two bandits and a hobgoblin. Sace went back and we decided I would do a sneak attack and then we would see if they follow or we could attack en masse. Sace kept doing potshots, but missing…

to a sea cave, this is how the goods are transported in. In the jollyboat.

28. Sloping Passage The incline of the passage is perceptibly greater in this area. Coarse matting has been laid in places on the floor, negating some of the slope's slipperiness.

29. Stock Cavern The passage widens to the south at this point to form a small cavern. There are three bolts of cloth and five small casks in the middle of the floor, resting on a piece of coarse matting.

30. Sea Cave The passage leads into a cave that opens directly to the sea. The tide is out at present, and there is little water in the cave, but there is an obvious high-water mark three feet above the floor. Pulled up onto the sloping cave floor is a small boat, perhaps large enough for eight people, with oars, a step-down mast, and a neatly furled sail. A rope tied to the bow is being held down by a large boulder that serves as an anchor. There was a jolly boat and a chest:

• Baggie of gemstones (carmelion and two moonstones.
• Bronze crown
• Silver & gold broach
• Bag of money with 800gp
• Potion of mind reading, potion of giant strength (Ziva)
• Bag of beans (10 dried beans) dump on ground and they explode. Plant it and then it will create an effect in a minute.
• Bag with two stones (sending stones) Went back to the DANGER door.

23. Skeletons' Room The bar securing the door is easily lifted. The smugglers sealed this room after discovering the undead within. Light spilling in from the large room behind you barely shows that the chamber is only about twelve feet across and the corners are filled with shadow. What little you can see is dingy and dirty. After a while… a faint blue light appears at the seam of the secret door to area

24. The light gradually grows brighter as the alchemist's remains reanimate after long decades. At a time of your choosing, the alchemist (skeletal alchemist; see appendix C) emerges through the secret door to assist the skeletons. When the alchemist enters the scene, read: A hunched corpse wearing a pointed hat and dressed in a robe embroidered with mystic symbols crosses through the hidden door. Thin wisps of beard float from its bony jaw. It raises a finger, tracing arcane symbols in the air. In a hoarse voice, it speaks: "Secrets found and lost then found again. Your paltry minds cannot fathom..."

Treasure. The alchemist wears an empty bag of holding at the waist. One rib bone on each of the skeletons is dipped in gold and is worth 5 gp. The alchemist also carries a cursed luckstone (see appendix B).

There were 6 skeletons in there.

Sace attacked and hit, but not dead. Sace killed one… then a strange necromancer "Secrets found and lost then found again. > Your paltry minds cannot fathom" It's the alchemist Sace Killed final skeleton 6 skeletons and the alchemist lich or whatever undead ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️ ☠️

Alchemist… wearing bag of holding…

Adventure | Ch.01, Session Jamie 003

Book. Before the alchemist died, he was reading the book that lies open on the table. Its title is Ye Secret of Ye Philosopher's Stone, no author acknowledged. The book is worth 50 gp to the right buyer. Though it is written in Common, the book is too profound and recondite a work to be fully understood by anyone other than the appropriate specialist, but a character might be able to deduce the general subject matter. Gaining that knowledge requires 8 hours of study and a successful DC 20 Intelligence (Arcana) check. The book contains instructions for the creation of a "philosopher's stone," then describes how that object can be used to convert base metal into gold.

Golden Objects. The objects on the table are made of pure gold—but were manufactured this way, not magically transformed. Although the characters might infer that they are the results of successful experiments with the philosopher's stone, the truth is that the alchemist had them crafted to deceive a potential buyer into believing that the stone was real. The collection includes the following items:- A human skull (20 gp)

• An apple (5 gp)
• A rose (5 gp)
• A set of five small discs (balance weights, 5 gp each)

Treasure. The table holds small stacks of gold coins totaling 47 gp. Examining the table closely reveals a concealed drawer that contains the spellbook the alchemist used when he was alive. The book's contents include dancing lights, comprehend languages, Tenser's floating disk, and shatter. The chemical apparatus on the bench is worth 20 gp.

• Cursed luckstone?
• Gold rib bone
• Golden human skull…
• Book -- secret of philosophers stone
• Alchemist spell book - bag of holding
• Gold Skull
• Gold apple
• Gold rose
• 5 small gold balance weight disks…
• 47 gold pieces
• Chemical apparatus (20gp)

Go back up stairs --

3. Study This room was once a writing room or study. Against the wall under the windows sits a large wooden writing desk, partially broken and riddled with damp rot. There are three drawers in each side of the desk and a large central drawer; the latter is closed, but the others are all open—and two of them have been broken open forcibly. The central drawer was locked. The drawer contained nothing but old, valueless documents, all written in Common—receipts for purchases of various chemicals and laboratory equipment. I uncovered a small secret compartment.

Treasure. Inside the secret compartment, wrapped in cloth, is a glass vial containing two potion of healing. $$ 2 potions of healing $$

2. Library This room was once a library, with bookshelves around the walls. Most of the shelves are broken, and in many places they have come away from the wall. The few shelves still intact are empty, but a pile of books rests in the southwest corner. Dull history and poems. The fourteen books in the heap untidily thrown into the corner are covered with cobwebs, vermin droppings, and harmless mold. All are partially ruined but are still legible. Most of the books are dull (histories, collections of romantic poems, and so forth), but three are quite noteworthy. These three books bear clear titles on their spines:

• The Magical Properties of Gemstones by the archmage Tenser
• _The Magical Properties of Herbs and Flower_s by the archmage Tenser
• The Metaphysics of Mathematics by the mage Nystul Inside the third volume lies a piece of parchment torn from a larger sheet, containing a few lines of handwritten text in the Common tongue. Dampness has spoiled it so that only two words are legible: "beyond skeletons."

Adventure | Ch.01, Session Jamie 003

$$

• The Magical Properties of Gemstones.
• The Magical Properties of Herbs and Flowers.
• The Metaphysics of Mathematics
• 8 bolts of silk $$

We went back to town. The Snapping Line . Sold brandy for half. Sold 5 casks for 15 gp. I ordered a beer. Eda Oweland returned and asked about Ned. We split 200 gp. The magical properties of flowers went to Ziva. We all got 2 bolts of the cloth. Enda wants to discover what the big operation is. She offered a reward to figure out how to and where things are coming in. The plan was to take towns guard up and down the coast and they'll report to us. We are to stop ships. 400gp to stop the ship. Given 2 guards for convoy. Some "potential" for philosopher's stone, but it seems the items were dipped in gold to give the illusion.

Found evidence of a smuggling ring. We got 200 gp for clearing it out and running it down. I go see Andrew and he has no real info. Smuggling was accepted, but not the kidnapping.

Few days go by… At the temple we are to go to a council meeting.

At the Council Meeting:

In the next part of the adventure, the council asks the characters to take the fight to the remaining smugglers.

A few days after their triumphant return from the destruction of the smugglers' ring at the haunted house, the characters are hastily summoned to an emergency meeting of the Saltmarsh Town Council. Here it is explained to them that, though the land-based operation of the smuggling ring has been quashed, there must be a seagoing vessel by which the contraband was originally conveyed, and this is still at large. The council, fearful that any surviving smugglers could seek to reestablish their operation from some other base, asks the characters to apprehend this vessel and put an end, once and for all, to the smuggling.

A reward of 400 gp is offered to the characters for the successful conclusion of the mission.

The Plan The council reasons that the smugglers on the vessel are, as yet, unaware of the capture or death of their land-based colleagues, and a return visit by them might well be expected. Since the last consignment was offloaded only a short while ago, another one is not expected for some time—perhaps during the next new moon, which begins in about two weeks' time.

The council arranges for members of the town guard to patrol the potential rendezvous points each night for the next two weeks in case the smugglers return earlier than expected. If the ship is sighted, the council is unwilling to risk the lives of volunteers by ordering them to take the ship and its crew by force. As soon as an approaching vessel is spotted, the council expects the characters to perform the actual task of boarding.

Once the characters accept the undertaking, the council puts a small fishing boat at their disposal and provides them with any reasonable amount of nonmagical equipment that they feel they require. The boat is large enough to accommodate the entire party plus two. The council also provides the services of two members of the guard to sail the boat for them when needed. They are not willing to board the Sea Ghost with the characters, though they defend themselves and the fishing boat if it is attacked.

The Signaling System If the characters discovered the bullseye lantern and the parchment in area 22 of the haunted house, they have a big clue to how the smugglers communicate. You might require the characters to make a successful DC 12 Intelligence (Investigation) check to determine how the system works—although certain facts are not written on the parchment. Alternatively, you can allow the characters to experiment with sending signals when the ship comes back.

Because of our operation. Goods are coming in from somewhere, and they ask us to locate the ship whit them and we are to sneak aboard and find info. Is this the ship?

Their contacts are worried. The ship is located a few times a month, pretty routine. Stays off the coast. New moon and gone by morning.

Willing to pay us 400 gp $$

At Winston's Goods we bought some stuff and turns out he is an old pirate I scared him when I whispered about The Revelry in Thieves Cant.

I then went back to the Empty Net. Taking a drink and taking in the room.

"smuggling. Goods, rendevous. Meeting night fortnite -- talking about Gellan Primewater ."

I have been "resting" with trances in back alleys. The ship is here. It has 2 guards, but won't fight and will defend the boat. It's far enough east so the town won't notice. We are to return to the house we investigated.

I use the signal and lantern with the morse code. The ship responds. I respond. They responde.

• Long short short -- is it safe?
• Long Short Long -- everything is safe.
• Long Long Long - Ready to unload.

They want us to send a boat out and we go with Ziva in the water and Bloke above.

We get to the Sea Ghost. We see Bloody Bjorn and Captain Siegert Snakeeyes

I used my spell to look like Sanbelth and we were confronted by the captain, and I tried to bluff. I failed.

Rewards Granted

• Purchased goods at Winstons

Fight.

They SURRENDERED! I was slowed and shot an arrow at the Captain.

I hit.

Wroxi convinced them to surrender, and so we tied them up and found some stuff.

1. Main Deck Though the light is dim at best, you can see details of the ship's main deck. In the center, forward of the mast, a jolly boat is lashed to the deck with ropes. Aft of the mast is a hatch to the belowdecks area and a rope ladder climbing to a crow's nest above. Two human figures lean against the rail mid-deck, staring toward the coast. Between them at deck level is a roll of canvas or rope. To fore and aft, below the upper decks, stand vague outlines of doors.

You can also see ladders that lead to the upper decks, the aft one on the port side, the forward one on the starboard. The hatch leads to the hold (area 11) below. Between the two figures waits a 25-foot-long rope ladder, ready to be thrown over the side. Two 25-foot lengths of rope also lie neatly coiled at opposite edges of the deck.

11. Cargo Hold Lantern light reveals an orderly cargo hold. Through the center runs the base of the main mast; beside it, narrow wooden stairs lead up to the hatch above. Against the aft bulkhead are stacked bolts of cloth, lashed by ropes to brackets bolted to the deck so they are secure. On each side are stacked a large number of small casks, also secured by ropes to the deck.

A lantern hanging from the ceiling, positioned just forward of the main mast, provides bright illumination. The characters can see the plain wooden hatch that allows access to the bilge, forward of the mast. Four crew members (bandits) under the supervision of Foul Frithoff (pirate bosun; see appendix C) are wandering about the hold, securing the cargo and taking inventory.

They chat about all manner of depraved conquests as they do. Once they become aware of the party, they attack immediately.

Treasure.

The hold contains the following cargo:

• 50 bolts of silk (50 gp each)
• 40 casks of brandy (10 gp each)
• 40 casks of fine wine (7 gp each)
• 1 large crate of high-quality mining tools (200 gp)
• On the ship we found $$$ 2 gp, Silver Key, 1 sp, arrows.
• And 50 bolts of silk, 40 casks of brandy, 40 casks of fine wine, crate of high quality mining tools.
• Another silver key.$$ And we explored the Cabin.
• It had an enclosed way, we searched and found traps.
• Brass box with silver lock and we had all 3 keys now.

13. First Mate's Cabin This cabin occupies half the stern section on this deck, with one bulkhead running along the centerline of the ship. Along this bulkhead, leading up in the direction of the bow, is an enclosed companionway.

At its foot, a door in the central bulkhead leads to the other part of the stern. On this door hangs a dark blue cloak. A single bunk, the bed linen heaped in a pile, is set against the hull. At its foot is a brass-bound wooden sea chest, its lid closed. Under the bunk is a brass box, also closed.

In the center of the cabin, a plain wooden table is bolted to the deck. On it are two books, one open and propped up against the other. Beside the table is a wooden chair.

Hanging from the ceiling over the table is an unlit hooded lantern. Just aft of the hook that holds the lantern is a hatch measuring three feet on a side. The cloak has no special properties and no significant value.

Adventure | Ch.02, Session Jamie 005

8. Punketah's Quarters This seems to be one of the master cabins. The furnishings and fittings are of good quality, and the place is tidy. A single bunk, made up with bed linen, has its head against a bulkhead running along the centerline of the ship. A polished wood table stands in the center of the room, bolted to the deck.

On the table is a silver bowl containing an assortment of fruit, a silver carafe half full of a light red liquid, and a silver goblet. Set at the table are two upright wooden chairs and a padded leather chair. On the deck toward the stern is a wooden, brass-bound chest. Beside it is a pair of highly polished black leather boots. From the center of the ceiling, over the table, hangs an unlit hooded lantern.

This cabin is the private quarters of Punketah, the deck wizard. On a peg behind the door hangs a maroon robe, of no particular value. Examining the boots in combination with a successful DC 12 Wisdom (Perception) check reveals a small hidden compartment in one of the heels. The compartment contains the key to the chest.

Treasure. The chest is locked and can be opened by a character who succeeds on a DC 12 Dexterity check using thieves' tools. The chest is also trapped with poisonous gas. Noticing the trap requires a successful DC 12 Intelligence (Investigation) check. A successful DC 12 Dexterity check is required to disarm the trap. Opening the chest without disarming the trap, or failing to disarm it, triggers the trap. When it is triggered, the trap releases a cloud of noxious gas in a 5-foot radius around the chest. Creatures caught in the cloud must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or be knocked unconscious for 1d4 minutes.

The chest holds items of clothing, a leather purse containing 50 gp, and a spell scroll of gust of wind. It also holds Punketah's spellbook, which has all the spells he has prepared recorded on its pages. $$ silver bowl, silver carafe, silver goblet, brass box with a odd trap and locked. Odd shiny boots (nothing), hidden compartment with a key to the chest I just opened. Leather purse with 50 gp. Gust of wind scroll. Spellbook. Purple cloak.

$$ In the nicest room was a desk.

• Many bills and receipts.
• Several intipent letters signed with "Mrs. Siegert" and spoke of 3 different ports.

Curious.

Last literate document says "broken comment - need more iron ware, like before" pictograph of lizard with forked tongue 2 locked drawers

9. Captain's Cabin This cabin is clean, and its furniture in good repair. A single bunk, made up with bed linen, has its head against the bulkhead running along the centerline of the ship next to a wooden partition squaring off the corner near the main deck. A writing desk is set against the hull toward the stern; it has a drawer on each side and three trays on the top. Also on the desktop, just in front of the trays, is an inkpot, two quill pens, a small knife, and a pewter container that resembles a pepper pot.

Against the desk is set an upright wooden chair, and beside it is a wooden, brass-bound chest. Against the hull on the starboard side is a padded leather couch. In front of it, a bearskin rug lies on the deck, while beneath the couch can be seen a large metal box. An unlit hooded lantern hangs from the ceiling.

A gray cloak (with no special properties) hangs on a peg on the back of the door. The wooden chest beside the desk is unlocked. It contains items of clothing, including a well-worn, comfortable pair of slippers.

Writing Desk. Of the trays on the desktop next to the pewter container (which is nearly full of fine sand), one is empty and another contains bills and receipts for various items of marine supply. The last contains several letters of a personal and intimate nature from three different women in three different ports (each of whom is under the misapprehension that she is Mrs. Sigurd "Snake Eyes"), and a curious, semiliterate document requesting a further supply of ironware "as per previous consignments and at the agreed terms." The signature here is in the form of a pictograph and shows a lizard with forked tongue extended.

This last document is a request from the lizardfolk for more weapons.

You should exercise caution here in not making the document too explicit—the lizardfolk would not want the document to fall into the wrong hands and have concealed as much of the real meaning of the request as possible—for instance, using words like "goods" instead of "weapons." The two desk drawers are locked; a character who succeeds on a DC 10 Dexterity check using thieves' tools can open one drawer.

Rewards Granted

pirates: 2 gp/ 6sp / 2gp, 17 arrows 2 gp, Silver Key, 1 sp, arrows. And 50 bolts of silk, 40 casks of brandy, 40 casks of fine wine, crate of high quality mining tools.

We sailed the ship home and helped free the prisoners. We escorted our new prisoners to Eda since the council hall was closer than the barracks. We turned in the First Mate and 5 guards.

The townsguard went ahead to alert the council. At the council, Eda was excited. Wroxi told them how we went to the ship and discovered the smuggling operation. This is bigger than first imagined.

It has been close to a year since this started and the last few had a over a dozen or son captured. There is a connection to the lizardfolk and the town is aware of their presence.

• Manistrad Copperlocks owns the mining operation.
• Gellian Primewater is a rich dapper old gentleman.
• Manistrad Copperlocks The leader of the newly established mining operation in Saltmarsh is an iron-willed dwarven woman named Manistrad. She runs the mining outfit from a small office near the edge of town.
• Gellan Primewater Gellan, human male, is a well-spoken, dapper older gentleman with a neatly trimmed beard and a fancy wardrobe. With his cunning instincts, he has positioned his family to become the most prominent merchants in town, but he now faces an intractable problem.

Because Gellan is the wealthiest man in town, he garners a great deal of popular support from the many feasts, entertainments, and other diversions he supports with expenditures and donations. He pretends to care little for the daily functions of the council, defaulting to throw his support behind Eda's position.

Eda says they will figure things out. Our stay is now paid for. Tomorrow is market day and so we are asked to stay close.

Manistrad requested his tools back, and a messenger bird would be arriving tomorrow to help pay for the goods. After Wroxi hit up Gellian about the pirates and he rushed to leave. Hearing his name, I realize I heard it before -- in the shady tavern and so I find a place to sit down at The Snapping Line so I can see through Bloke's eyes and follow Gellan.

He went home (16) and I saw someone else leaving. I station Bloke to watch the house as I slip out and just as I came to the side of the house I see a person who darts past I followed them and crossed a bridge to the Empty Net. Using my stone I tell the team and then casually sauntered into the tavern.

It does seem busier than normal and I see Kreb, the tavern owner.

16. Primewater Mansion: Gellan Primewater maintains a large mansion right on the docks, allowing him to oversee his ships from his upstairs window. He sometimes leans out to shout orders or answer questions for his captains and crews, his booming voice echoing over the docks. The location of his house also makes it convenient for his smugglers; the crews slip goods through a secret entrance that leads to his mansion's cellar. The mansion's most notable feature is its grand entryway and feast hall.

Gellan hosts at least one extravagant feast per week, headlined by food and drink bought in distant ports. His cook, a young gnome named Feliza, sometimes hires adventurers to find rare herbs, meats, and other ingredients for her dishes. Wroxi then enters and as she comes close to me a stranger asks her if she will sell her pseudodragon.

The barmaid's name is "Jester". I sneak around and try to open a door. I then hear some talk about smuggling and how it was caught. The name Gellan is said again in whispers. We end up leaving.

We now know the tavern is complicit. I watch the guy and he ends up going to the Hobie Home (by 6 on the right side). I go to check out the house, it is a one-room hovel. It has a small window in the rear and lights a fire. I snuck in and tied him up.

He is a messenger working for Gellan and has "connections". Gellan is not a part of the slave situation, just the black market goods. He wants goods for the money and has his people sell those goods. The message given to Kreb was "wait and be ready." I take him over my shoulder and turn him in to the proper authorities.

We took a long rest.

LONG REST 😴 Saltmarsh

In the morning there was a message from the council. They had interrogated the captured prisoners. Also, it seems Gellan is holding a celebration tomorrow, and in our honor. We told Eda about the captured messenger and then we went to the market.

A message from council. They interrogated the captured. Gaillen is throwing a celebration tomorrow in our honor. We tell Enda about the capture.

Arrived at the party and Eda immediately told them that the messenger they had retreived the night before was found in his cell after having apparently hanging himself.

They unfortunately couldn't get anymore information out of him and therefore do not have the evidence needed to move forward with arresting Gellan.

At the party, Gellan slips away to deal with Kreb. The party follows and a fight happens out back by the docks. The party and townsguard are able to capture Gellan, Kreb and Skerrin.

They were all trying to get away in a jollyboat to leave town before getting caught. All were taken to jail and Gellan proceeded to tell them everything he knew about the Scarlet Brotherhood and the Children of Malice.

The next thing on the docket is to determine what the lizardfolk are up to. There has been no hostile relations since the lizardfolk returned to the stranglehold. They ask if the party could check in on what is happening without instigating violence. As a thank you for helping them thus far, the party is granted use of Gellan's mansion and crew for a year to help sail the Sea Ghost.

• sidebar: Ziva went for a swim and ran in a young merfolk teen.

He told her the merfolk were friendly with the lizardfolk and that the elders have been communicating with them more lately. he doesn't know what they talk about, he just likes playing with the lizardfolk kids his age.

go to sahuagin stronghold....?

Notes

Sahaugin stronghold is about 50miles SW.

• Former lizardfolk lair: series of natural caves and passages honeycombing the interior of the island - 3 level cave system inside a rocky island. - main entrance is a large cave facing the sea coast - lizardfolk added stairs to connect the levels Since the sahaugin took over - The high priestess of Sekolah named Thadrah worked ritual magic to lower the seabed and sink the island, now only the top 1/3 is visable above water - the lower level cave entrance is now submerged under 80ft of water.

goal. they created a fortified base with the ability to exert an iron hand of domination over all race inhabiting the adjacent waters and coastal region. they plan to construct more bases until their control over all waters and coasts is complete, and maritime commerce is at their mercy. - they are continuing to lower the island further into the ocean - plan to mount their first offensive attack within the month to saltmarsh Saltmarsh asks the party to check it out, clear it out if possible or report back if not. goals: 1. determine the strength of the sahaugin forces 2. locate important areas within the fortress 3. discover any defensive measures 4. discover how advanced their preparations are and when they might attack (20-30 days hence).

saltmarsh will follow a couple of day behind them.

• Party entered the fortress and cleared out a good chunk of the first level (about half the forces).
• Found the armory and brought the weapons and things back to the ship to take a long rest
• Began making their way back into the fortress

DEC 4/18 12/4 Left outside croc den. A nest. Bloke and gnash checked lair, we avoided Went to queen of lizard folk and we bring gnash. We show teeth and eyeball. Queen thanks us Garurt and ugth 2 bets guards go wo with us. Read 3 horus finished book 1

Unndilar (5) 18, y.0001

New day Started 2 Ad in fight… told council (peter did) Lair to stronghold. Causway to something 1 man entrance. 3 levels? Fortified Scouting mission Town will send a message when ready. Lizardfolk will go report back. They had gifts though.

Some pots of healing. Leather +1. I sold my old armor and gained 2 pots. I also bought a few more. And then we departed.

It was a 50 mile jouney and late morning. We saw the islandd off the coast. I read my book the ship. We arrived on the island. As we pull up we see no movement. We approach the island on a jolly boat. I tis bare with no vegetation except random clumps and all rock. No wildlife, but mollusks. The only bird being Bloke. The re is a stone causeway across the water. 2 enormous doors at the end of the causeway on the island. We are told it houses a honeycomb cave systemo of passages with 3 levels. The water is clear dn deep about 15-20 feet then it gets murky.

The causeway is 200 feet with a 10 ince divide and 10-15 feoot thick The rock formation is all natural and the causeway is built. Something is very abnormal about this island. A rockledge 10' / 5' reef apx. 6" Flat metal plate inside on the door. It rattles then weird language The door opens. Something about. A ruse? Hear inside "dift" bar?

Fight. I killed the first lizard thing. And another. Both with crits. I l killed 3 and maybe 1 or 2 more….

Seems they took this over from the lizards… Search and found a bar inside the front door. Thick walls. 20' tall rooms and halls 10 foot wide, 15 ft hight. Expert craftsmanship perfectly built. Tile. Tables. Bench. Coffers. Investigated complex… Found weapon stach. 35 daggers in scabbards. 60 spears 75 daggers 30 tr… 60 gl… 20 warhammers We took these weapons to the ship.

Aubreck, a male human, has seen better days. His clothes haven't been fashionable for at least a year. He keeps his iron-gray hair pulled back in a short ponytail, and his mustache is neatly tended. Aubreck explains that the ship holds a magic box containing promissory notes and property deeds worth a total of 100,000 gp. He offers the characters a fee of 10 percent (10,000 gp) to recover it. He says that the ship was recently spotted adrift, approximately five days out from land. He has already hired a ship, Soul of Winter, and a crew to mount a mission to the derelict. Now he needs adventurers to go along and board the Emperor once they reach it, then find the box and bring it back. Old man, Aubrek spoke of how he was rich and and lost it. Southward South Isles. Spices and herms with amerchant. Invest in cash. Strongbox on the ship. Lost at sea. Ordinary merchant. Ship is in the ocean Reward: 10% of wealth, 100k on … Use his ship Upset at the rank, but honest. 1 ship… Something about lost ghost 10 years

Notes

? Party makes their way back to town to rest up and sell their items SALVAGE OPERATION - Aubrek approaches the party and tells them what happened to his ship, the Emperor of the Waves • Aubreck Drallion was once one of the richest merchants in the city; his trade fleet was the largest and most profitable of its kind, boasting hundreds of ships going all over Wildemount and Taldorei • His profits were stable but his ambition was not • Years ago, his contacts told him that he could monopolize trade in rare spices and herbs from the southern most islands/jungles by making heavy investments in the area

Aubreck took the opportunity as a sure thing and jumped at the chance to get even richer

• He sold off many of his assets and converted the proceeds into property deeds and promissory notes, then secured the portable wealth aboard his flagship Emperor of the Waves • Plan was to convert the investments back into cash at the destination in the South • Ship was separated during a storm and lost to the sea • Lost everything and was reduced to the lifestyle of an "ordinary" merchant • 15 days ago, received word that his ship was spotted adrift in the Lucean Ocean, appearing to be a ghost ship • Aubreck used his savings to hire a ship and crew

• Believes he can restore his standing if he recovers the deeds and documents that sailed with the ship

• Since they were so successful with bringing down the sahuagin, he asks if they could accompany his hired ship and bring back the his treasure box
• Inside the box is promissory notes and deeds worth 100,000gp and he offers a reward of 10% (10,000gp) to recover it

Notes

ISLE OF THE ABBEY

• Call for help; seeking adventurers willing to secure the island and its burned-out abbey; contact Guildmaster Tabeth at the local mariner's guild for more info • Local mariner's guild would like to claim a small, strategically located island and build a lighthouse there but so far no one has been able to land safely, every attempt has been met by a horde of undead
• 2,000gp reward • The guild contact, Major Ursa, is located on a nearby island where he can supply the party and offer more details
• Major Ursa's location is 6hours by rowboat along the coast; can offer more information
• Major Ursa will not join the party, if they've made at least one attempt to land, he will accompany them but stay in the boat
• 3 months ago, evil clerics of the Abbey quarreled violently with a large pack of local pirates
• They used to be in league with each other: the pirates would bring the clerics smuggled and stolen goods, then the clerics would sell the items to temples at a much higher cost. -the clerics would more often than not cheat the pirates with substantially lower prices
• the pirates decided they had had enough and lit the abbey on fire, the blaze and wreckage was so intense they left the island without looting them buried temple
• the pirates burned the abbey to the ground but they suffered so many casualties that they were destroyed when our local mariner's guild went after them
• the island, now apparantly abandoned, remains a danger due to undead guarding the only safe approach
• willing to pay 2,000gp if they can land, explore the island, and clear it entirely of threats so that the guild can construct their lighthouse payment upon completion:
• the island is little more than a slab of rock rising from the ocean
• surrounded by reefs and rocky shoals which is why a lighthouse would be so important
• Abbey Isle is 2 hours by rowboat, the only safe place to land is a large sandy beach
• When the abbey was built, evil clerics populated the dunes with hundreds of skeletons brought from the mainland for defense of the island
• occasionally we would get interference coming from the island that would mess with the magicks of the lighthouse but theyve become more frequent of late -our guild clerics have told us it is pulses of necrotic energy which must be what is keeping the skeletons animated
• whatever is causing the necrotic energy needs to be destroyed or we won't be able to have ANY lighthouses in the area ** every hour (in game time) players make a DC15 CON saving throw or take 1d4 necrotic damage**
• clerics are from the Dragon Cult -
• depictions of dragons and tiamat *navigating the sand dunes
• first perception check -> half the score is the party's first movement *Consequent movement is 1 square each turn there are depictions of Tiamat everywhere, it is nagging in Sace's mind that he's seen them before -necromancer is funneling necrotic energy into a giant crystal that pumps it out across the island, keeping the skeletons animated **Brainstorm ideas on how to connect Sace's backstory with the Dragon Cult and his missing memory. *winston tells Sace that Veklana has information about his past **Flesh out the Revelry and Myriad more and connect the dots HOARD OF THE DRAGON QUEEN Tiamat -chromatic dragon with 5 heads (1 for each of the main colors of chromatic dragons) and a long tail tipped with a poisonous stinger -arrogant, greedy, hateful, spiteful and vain -in her attempt to gain uncontrolled power, she was defeated and banished to the nine hells
• Winston from Winston's Store, contacts Sace during the party
• although he is no longer part of the The Revelry thieves guild, he still has contacts that keep him informed
• rumor has it that The Cult of the Dragon has been active again
• they were wiped out 20yrs ago; while it was never assumed they were completely destroyed, any activity over the last 20years has been small and relatively quiet
• their focus was to make undead dragons to fullfill an ancient prophecy but rumor has it that their goals have changed
• There has been a rise in underground activity of late, enough to garner notice from the guild and cause worry ************* *these cultists that you found on Abbey Isle are worrying, it tells us that perhaps the cult is closer than we thought -He tells Sace that his contact has more information and he can make arrangements for the party to meet his contact at sea just outside of FEOLINN
• ships name is The Dark Maiden (3 masted sailing ship it will have a green lantern on the bow and a red lantern on the stern
• 100yds away, hang a green lantern on the bow and flash it 3 times; wait for 2 flashes back to signal you can approach and it's the right ship
