Session 033 - Corvus-ation
General Summary
Date Unknown
Inside Broadbranch’s house:Thalindor Broadbranch is a member of the Corvus Collegium
House is filled with books
CC wants details and insight into Thaddeus Vorden Eat some proper food and get rest before continuing conversation
Rested in basement library & rooms accessible only accessible from the breakfast nook
Symbol of CC is raven with a locked book, and is a blend of symbols for the The Parent, The Sage, and The Smith.
Zoda checks out the library; it’s an eclectic collection without a discernible pattern or logic
After long rest, most of us got rid of the DC ladder effect (Rhyke failed, Beretan TBD)
Majority of group rolled on madness table, lots of paranoia and anxiety floods the group while resting
Broadbranch was able to convince some of us to allow him to help calm our minds and talk freer
Told us more about Zeroth, was mentored by him, and guided towards CC
Rhyke shoots a firebolt at a shadow and set a book on fire, while Thad and Zoda try to put the fire out and Zoda successfully stole another book
Broadbranch shrieked and cast ray of frost
Thad tossed Rhyke his herbalism kit which fell to the floor
Broadbranch is willing to help get us info on Jade Hawk, Vorden is not to be messed with right now as he is too powerful, CC has been observing and keeping tabs on him and his family for centuries, can’t tell us much because the Collegium is strict with their knowledge
We need to get out of town while we’re labeled as terrorists
Broadbranch casts a restoration spell on Ink which releases her fear and paranoia, and in response she hands over Zelroth’s final journal and told him about finding it and the bodies
Broadbranch cast restoration on Bews and Juni found a diamond in her bag of gems he could for Rhyke as well
We talked about the Cataclysm, the original meteor that struck the planet, the dark energy that was released and the resulting rifts which became the other planes of existence, the gods managed to seal themselves and the dark gods behind a divine gate. When the gate was formed the Nexus pillars were created by the Smith, they are energy pillars that are the scaffolding of the gate and keep the planes from crashing into each other The Collegium was created to help protect the pillars and the knowledge of them in the age of darkness, Broadbranch is concerned about how much Voden knows
We need to get out of town, we need to get stronger before meeting Vorden again and to lay low before going after the Hawk again Broadbranch can send us to a contact of his named Ziggenvoggle Cogwhistle, a gnome that lives in the Fizzbog swamps to the east, may be able to help with void stuff,
Suggested going to the city of Acma as well
Taking 2 wagons to get out of the City, we’re heading to the “forest sewer”
Received 2 books on mushroom folk for Musky,
Driver 1 is Ithy
Successful stealth check to escape the city undetected
Zoda snagged the book “Echoes of Acma, Relics of Forgotten Civilizations” By Therion
Continued travelling until reaching a safe place to stop for the night
