Zaithar's Current Goals
Ambitions
Zaithar is mostly content to do the Raven Queen's bidding, patiently waiting to watch her plans unfold. Along the way, they have come to enjoy the powerful feeling that comes with improving their skills. Zaithar wants to be capable enough to help the Raven Queen bring her dreams to fruition. Examples might include:
Undertaking activities or acquiring items that make them more stealthy, deceptive, intimidating, persuasive, etc.
Finding ways to unlock more power related to shadow magic
Follow Up
Marius used a magical orb to smash it on the ground and lift the darkness to see them. Can we get some of those?? Yarasule says it was probably Dispel Magic spell. Could maybe find a scroll or someone could learn it. We should find out more about those tall towers that don't have an obvious way in aside from the opening in the top The GAC can sell a grappling hook launcher for 200gp. 400-500gp if I want it to be self-retracting The Tinkerer's shop is Gnomish Notions and we should check it out. Meet back up with Gorm at some point to learn more about the shipping in and out of Durnford I want to send a message to the military with an update on the situation. Maybe ask for any new orders? Get to know the Duke of Murgholm , see what they know about Yarasule and Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) The Duke's hall might have info on Yarasule and Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) President Damguard made us sign a harsh NDA that requires we not speak with anybody about our business with the Shipping Guild. Make sure I strut to Gorm and rub it in his stupid face that we killed the eel. (But make sure not to break confidentiality) Zaithar wants to understand more about what seems like shadow magic from the sexy blue-silver mage. Jeremy thinks Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) may have created the amulet that controls the crystal. I find a sending stone in the sexy drow mage's tent. Need to figure out how to leverage it for some purpose. We should try to get more gold for having prevented future monster attacks now that the warding spell is back in place Captain Reka said Gorm is only after money and power Captain Reka said she respects the priestesses and Charlie of Charlie's Place Duke of Murgholm is a powerful dragon. Their empire is strong. Reka hasn't ever met him. We should check on the towers to make sure no drow funnybusiness is happening. Krix thinks they might be under attack. There might also be goodies inside. I take 20 pounds of invisible spider silk. I should think up a sick piece of gear and bring it to Alchemax to craft for me. Maybe clothing that makes me invisible longer or somehow boosts my existing abilities? Captain Reka could help us on an expedition to harvest Bloodgrass . His majesty will buy at least 100 stalks of bloodgrass - 25gp per stalk up to 100gp. I try to start a rumor that Gorm is an animal abuser. Carl the Lumber Buyer and Robert the Lumber Buyer hopefully will be spreading that around Durnford. The Durnford Lamplighter buys stories for 25gp per Sabina Lebesco runs the Teamsters Lumber Durnford branch I should look into the Circlet . It seems to be magical and/or cursed. I know it has transmutation magic but not sure what it does. I pick up a halberd from the metal man after we destroy it. Need to sell it back in town. Yarasule senses a touch of the demonic in me. Demonic forces are unpredictable - very different from the magic of the three primary realms. Suggests I check in with my goddess. We left the drow amulet for Yarasule to study. They will contact us eventually. We should seek out Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) . A necklace with a token one side w/princess other side different for each Exemplar. Yarasule's has a bow. Zaither wonders if Magic Mike could be Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) Yarasule can't offer help finding Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) , but thinks we need to do that at some point so he can train Marius ' child. Yarasule thinks Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) is nearby Durnford We should keep an eye out for crystals, Drow agents, portals, etc. to find out what's happening with the darkness coming into the world. See if we can figure out how it's happening. Yarasule gave us a way to identify extraplanar Free Magic - Nia's Detect Magic spell. Yarasule believes Marius and Dadwen are alive but not together We need to go buy some healing potions at some point. Nia thinks the Feast of the Sisters presents danger for the realm. Zaithar spends time on the walk working on a crude map of the area. The Forge Mistress makes all the fine weapons - e.g. beautiful battle axe I should consider writing to the Raven Queen about Krix's quest from Gayerdel. And his oathbinding. Hubert dresses like a little wizard. He is Magic Mike 's apprentice. He sells things down at the market (will be there tomorrow). The daggers are called Blackrazor and need attunement. I should figure out what's up with my silver and gold circlet - maybe cursed? The lady at Gnomeish Notions said I should check in with the witch lady who usually hangs out at Charlie's Place #downtime I bought a Fist in a Box kit. Panelin will put it together for me when she has time. Check out the baths at Duke's Hall to see if we can get more info. Maybe check out the Vicarious Office () We should find some books on the topic of Free Magic Rich people in town likely have book collections Letter B address is where Brima hangs out, near the fish n chips shop Zaithar sold a story to the Durnford Lamplighter for I got a free pass to the baths!! Tonight (1 Austas) only. Visit the baths before the end of the day 1 Austas We should arrive by noon on 2 Austas to begin the capture the flag tournament. The Tournament of the Feast of the Sisters. Amara comes over to congratulate us on our recent adventures. She said we should stop by her place after the day. Amara's friend sells amulets. And she'll be at the baths tonight. Her amulet came from one of the vendors. Might need to attune to the mithril butterfly knife Hubert is at the weekend market selling wares. He wants to hang out with Zaithar (Will) Alcamiss and Alcamale sell expensive clothes, armor, and jewelry. Krix buys a magic ring and uses his panoptic lorniette identify it. It makes the wearer feel attractive. It has enchantment, abjuration, evocation, and a fourth school of magic that isn't clear. We need to figure out who "the matron" is that we learned about through one of the sending stone messages. If we have evidence of the use of Free Magic , e.g. the mage's head perhaps, we could go to the Portreeve to ask for an audience with the Duke of Murgholm The church of Siaska and Haya can probably heal us when we're poisoned, etc. The silver dragons have an academy in the capital. They are known to be magical experts. Might have info on Free Magic Nia suggested maybe Child of Dhermot (aka Teren) left to the Feywild . Worth investigating. Maybe we can get His Eminence to show up and answer some questions? The GAC Manufactory might have recurring jobs for us.

Zaithar's Journal
Most of what I've learned about the Bitterwood is from stories I've heard in passing during my many adventures. I once found a scroll called a "Campaign Overview " but I'm not sure whether it's trustworthy.
New Acquaintances
I arrived at camp after an uneventful boat trip. Well, not entirely uneventful...this was the first time a tabaxi held a knife to my throat.
Krixaris is a skinny, 6' 6" tabaxi with green eyes, orange fur, and these marvelously furry ears. He must have been having some wild dream because when I startled him awake he nearly killed me.
Once we got to camp, I met some more folks who seem like they could be fun.
Nia Moonwhisper seemed intense at first. She has these deep green eyes that seem almost magical. Oh and those triangle tattoos....what are those about??? She said she belongs to the Boar Clan
Panelin is a rock gnome. She's only 3' tall but she looks tough . Dark green hair. I'm worried we all freak her out a little bit...she's always trying to stay away from taller folk. I think she said she worships the gnome moon goddesses.
Jeremy is the first Bullywug I've had the pleasure of meeting. He's got a brown and tan coloring to him and I think he said he's known by the Boarhead clan? But I get the feeling he mostly hangs out alone or maybe with his family. Seems pretty anxious. His hat is MARVELOUS.
