# 67_20210508 The Blue Crystal Fortress ## Session Summary When we took a rest in the Sanctum Empirica, Ka'ira had a dream that ended with her acquiring some interesting new body parts: dragon wings, and a replacement arm and leg. The replacement limbs were created out of her demons and given to her by Bahamut. She also learned that Tyr was gone, and that Bahamut was now the source of her powers. Back in the Blue Crystal Fortress, we entered the structure and encountered two other Foulspawns, both of whom displayed powers and abilities we didn't see from the sentry we'd killed earlier. We killed one and chased the other into a cavern containing what looked like an organ, suspended in air by vine-like tendrils. ^summary ## Recap of last session ![[66_20210502 Approaching the Blue Crystal Fortress#^summary]] --- ## Log Flashback: Ka'ira has a dream when we're in the Sanctum Empirica. She has fully-formed wings (small and weaker). There is now an arm made of black skin. It has a slight smell and is made of her demons. Bonus to intimidation and minus to diplomacy. It seems unstable in this form. She now also has a new black leg, with some yellows and greens. It forms like a tree. The foot at the end is a monster's foot with crooked talons and fingernails. They're not draconic; they're not scales. They look like flesh, but very dark. I do a medicine check. Magically melded to her flesh - she looks better than she has for the last few days. She has spoken to Bahamut and willingly let him do it to her. Tyr is gone (he was tricked by [[Cyric]] into killing [[Helm (god)]]) and [[ttrpgs/Order of the Wandering Mind/Bahamut]] has taken over his followers. [[Torm]] is now leading the triad of gods. Ka'ira can touch [[Syrinx]] but not with the demonic hand. Her limbs are a mixture of divine and demonic. She can still wear the crown. End flashback. Now we're at the Blue Crystal Fortress and we've just destroyed a [[Foulspawn]]. Natural holes in the wall, like corals. The stench is very strong. There are low walls of corpses. Maestro sends Lydia out. She doesn't see anything moving - she just sees the path split into three a bit further ahead. ![[Blue Crystal Fortress.png]] There are Foulspawns here and there, and some creepy roots. Ka'ira cuts the vine/root - it's like a banana. 26 Gloomtoes 18 Maestro 17 BADDIE 15 Xio 9 Ka'ira 7 Eraithe | Defense | Value | | --------------------- | ----- | | [[Reflex Defense]] | 22 | | [[Fortitude Defense]] | | | [[Will Defense]] | 20 | | [[Armor Class]] | 24 | [[Mockery Foulspawn]].
