ToD: Session 1: Finding the curse dispeller

Written by xoxochantall

General Summary

The party arrived at Candlekeep. They were allowed access to the huge library because of the book ‘How to befriend a Unicorn’ for a tenday. After entering the party spend the evening at The Hearth where they met Little One and slept the night at the inn known as The House of Rest.
The next day the party was accompanied by a guide named Nax (a Brass Dragonborn) to find the study in the Pillars of Pedagogy that Matreous was spending his time in. The party was told that Matreous wasn’t seen for a couple of days, the party discovered that he was nowhere to be found in his study room so they started investigating the room for clues.
After a few minutes of looking around, Leo found a suspicious opened looking book with on one page the text ‘Scepter’ and said that out loud. After the word was spoken a door appeared and opened up on a wall in the room.
The party entered Fistandia's Mansion and found Matreous inside this place next to a statue of an Imp. Matreous only wanted to help the party if they found some books from inside this place, so the party started looking. Meanwhile Matreous took the statue of the Imp with him outside the place, the door closed after him and just before the door closed the party could hear a loud scream.
Because of the closed door, the party had to look for a way out. They looked in all of the rooms, stumbled upon Homunculi (Cumin and Coriander) that spoke common and befriended the party, two Fairy dragons, some animated objects like floating books, a demon (quasit), a mimic, a chained library where the party got a magical flail (a chain with a book attached to it called ‘Martial attack techniques’) and eventually found the way out of the Magnificent Mansion. The way out came in a form of having to find books with particular letters on them that made the following word; ‘Liberty’. After spoken the door appeared once again and the party was free, leaving all of the books that made the word at the entrance of the door inside the Magnificent Mansion.
Leo exited the Mansion first and directly got stabbed in the guts by an Imp, almost dieing but survived. Tharkall exited the mansion next, saw Leo lying on the ground and popped a Potion of healing in Leo’s mouth. The rest of the party got out of the Mansion a fight begun between the Imp and the party. After defeating the Imp, the party found Matreous dead on the floor.
