Hunting Land Creatures For Loot
General Summary
As the post did not say where to meet except in Arbour presumly Xiomara, Meako used his position as king to summon the others to the keep, but forget to clearify only if willing, luckly all was willing, so no one was dragged, after discussion a bit they set out into the town specfically the magiciens monocle to gather intel of worthy pray, there a somewhat supeciouse fellow approched them, saying he was scholar of sort, and he knew the locations of some worthy prey, and all they had to do in exchange was use the gem he provided to take a picture of them(attuned gem with stolen light, using itself as focus, set to go off when within 5 ft of target), the party agreed to go after two of the monsters, the two most dangerous in fact, they never got to the second as the first, the Night Hydra proved quite the challenge.
they teleported to drakes harbour and from there used summoned mounts to get to just a hex away from their distionation, next morning they prepared for the fight and set off to the location they been told, where they found signs of a fight, but no tracks so they decided to set a ambush.
the first prey that fell into it was not the hydra but a group of wolfs, that was quickly delt with except one who had been hanging back observing who ran away as its fellow wolfs got slaughted.
the second prey, they did ambush. rather it ambushed them appering out of thin air, seemingly knowing exactly where they all was like it had already seen them hide there, it grappled Adonis and began drinking his blood, and first tried to take control of kazumars mind failing that, it tried on Meako where it find a singular weakspot and managed to take control ordering him to fight his comrades, he killed Kazumar, and Warful ran but not all luck had ran out as it ordered him to give chase Meako managed to breakout, realizing it was vampiric and undead in nature he used named bullet to quickly deal with the hydra, who turned into a gaseous form and ran. Adonis was healed, the party quickly came up with a plan, Warful who had returned and Meako would give chase to the vampire, while Adonis took Kazumar back to xio to get him resurrected, with the help of Arel a council women of arbour. Meako managed to get close enough and use his clock to basically have tug of war with gaseous hydra, slowing it down from returning to its coffin until Adonis with Kazumar returned. then letting it go to its lair, it tried to throw them off but it didn't have much time left, and as such they found its lair.
but a wall of force activated when they tried to enter, using stone shape they made a passage to bypass it, then they were almost shot with a hail of arrows, almost triggered a flooding trap, and had to overcome several illusions to find the coffin which was magically sealed, so they had to solve a riddle inscribed upon it to gain accese, but sepia snake sigils was woven into the riddle and so both Meako and Kazumar got frozen but Adonis managed to free Meako who then read the rest, after quite a bit of pondering Warful, answeared it correctly. but it took them quite a bit of them to reliaze it wasn't obviouse when they answeared correctly and they simply had to push on the stone lid after saying the answear, they staked the hydra, brought Arel who after doing some reasearch on it, not everyday you see unique speciments like this after all she heled annoint the head in holy water and making sure it was dead dead.
