TITLE ME
Chapter 3: Hook Mountain Massacre - Part 5: Harrowing The Hook
Gaining Entrance
Statue
- Handout to Calum
- Read this in its entirety, then ham it up. Spotlight’s on you.
- The statue is not a statue, as you can clearly see. It’s a Thassilonian-magic-preserved mummified body of one of the Runelord of Greed’s inner court members.
- Your mind fogs and you are filled with the rage of a thousand demon-toddlers who were told, “No.”
- How dare he?
- The treaty declared that the Storval Deep was to be the boundary between your empires.
- You pooled your powers to summon the great beasts into its depths to patrol the borders.
- And this – this war manufacturing outpost – is on YOUR side of the boundary. HIS envoy in YOUR Empire.
- The ranseur now acts as a staff. It can cast Shatter and Heat Metal (both spells) at will (ie, no restriction on how often), using your caster level. When using one of these, there’s a discernable “streak of purple fire” and “short, high-pitched sonic boom” from the ranseur to the target.
- Oh, and to go with it, you have to break something every week. It doesn’t matter if it’s pottery or faces… But at least once a week you have to go full-on temper-tantrum and destroy something wholly. If you do not, you suffer the ill effects as a failed geas (not lesser geas) with no save until you make up all missed fits, and an extra one for good measure.
- Geas
- If the subject is prevented from obeying the geas/quest for 24 hours, it takes a –3 penalty to each of its ability scores. Each day, another –3 penalty accumulates, up to a total of –12. No ability score can be reduced to less than 1 by this effect. The ability score penalties are removed 24 hours after the subject resumes obeying the geas/quest.
