She got out of the basket and was chased by spiders into her hiding place. She didn't seem to know who she was or anything else that had happened before she began to fall. > > Ora found a scrap of paper that had `Mightingale Spider?` written in it. That prompted Boris to remember some tales of a spider that bestowed some sort of seed if you got close enough to it. > > You attempted to take a long rest, but were surprised by three large spiders that seemed to match up somewhat with the description of the spiders that Jamedi had previously encountered. Some of their most annoying abilities include being able to stealth quite well, phasing in and out between this plane and the ethereal plane, and ensnaring prey and dragging them elsewhere. ^summary --- ## Housekeeping - [x] No D&D next week, because we'll be doing Ky's one-shot! - [x] Questions about the lore of Prismeer? ## Recap ![[044_20211205 Coming Hither#^summary]] ## Strong start - Dawn throws her arms around Ora, thanking her for rescuing her. She can't remember much, but she knows it wasn't pleasant there. ## Scenes - [x] Flint will create a rapier for Jamedi and give it a +1 during the long rest - [x] Party takes a long rest but on the `dice: 1d4`th watch, 3 [[Fey Spiders]] creep up on them. Stealth: `dice: 2d20k+6`, `dice: 2d20k+6`, `dice: 2d20k+6` ```encounter name: Encounter players: - Boris - Ora - Lira - Flint - Jamedi creatures: - 3: "Fey Spider" ``` - [ ] Prismeer reactions to emotion - [ ] Positive: `dice: [[Prismeer#^positivereaction]]` - [ ] Negative: `dice: [[Prismeer#^negativereaction]]` - [ ] Low tide encounters: `dice: [[Hither#^encounterlowtide]]` - [ ] High tide encounters: `dice: [[Hither#^encounterhightide]]` - [x] Lira attempts to stealth to get up early and hide her wings, especially without her circlet of disguise. - [ ] Going to the Brigand's Tollway and fighting Agdon ## Secrets and Clues - [x] The last thing Dawn remembers is falling from the sky and landing on a basket that was also falling. There was a dead monster and a dead bird (or so she thought). She fell down from the basket of the balloon and was carried away by spiders and locked here. - [x] Pride's Call Silk is made from silkworks that eat the leaves of a special silkberry tree grown from seeds that have something to do with something called the [[Mightingale Spider]], found only in [[Prismeer]]. - [ ] An half-orc, half-titan armed with [[Ruin's Wake]], a magical and sentient spear, has gained notoriety in [[The Many Hosts of Igrathad]]. He is called [[Hardrak]], and a dearth in leadership in orc tribes led to him being able to take over. - [ ] Dawn is [[Topplepot]] in her dumb-but-beautiful form. Her next form is Xenith, her mediocre stage. She grows smarter and uglier the closer she gets to [[Thither]]. - [ ] Jamedi has lost his sense of caution. - [ ] There is a village in the [[Greying Wildlands]] that seems to produce an overwhelming number of changelings. They're not sure why. - [ ] [[Karnur]] has a lump growing on his forehead. It's quite itchy, and he can't help but scratch it against anything that might soothe the itch. - [ ] [[The Brigands' Tollway]] is a series of interconnecting causeways going to a large stump. It's also the headquarters of the brigands. - [ ] [[Agdon Longscarf]] is the head of the brigands, and he made a pact with [[Bavlorna Blightstraw]] to give her one item (one memory) from each group of victims. - [ ] Bavlorna Blightstraw lives in [[Downfall]], protected by a settlement of bullywugs. ## [[Loot]] - [ ] [Earth Rumble Boots](https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/3733420-earth-rumble-boots) - [ ] [Potion of Climbing](https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/potion-of-climbing) - [ ] [Slippers of Spider Climbing](https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/slippers-of-spider-climbing) --- ## Log - Psychic Whispers: Dawn, Lira, Boris, Jamedi for 1 hour We ended in the middle of the battle, at the top of the round: ![[45_8360313-encounter_fey_spider.png]]
