However, when Crescenda indicates that she has the salvaged baking goods, Wilwick smiles and says, "Great job! I would hate to be without the ability to make campfire biscuits!" "I appreciate it," the diminutive holy man adds with a sincere smile as he stows the items back in his pack before searching the alter area. "So, what do you make of the magic the evil cleric was attempting to invoke, as well as the alter and related items," the tiny cleric asks his taller counterpart.

Chaz Hoosier Posted March 28 Author Clone Share Posted March 28 Crescenda recognizes the idol on the altar to be Maglubiyet, the vile god of all goblinoid creatures. A sufficiently experienced cleric of such a god would know how to animate skeletons to serve him. The crude idol is clearly not original to the black altar it sits upon, neither is the image of the demonic face shaped into the arch over the northern door associated with Maglubiyet's cult. Piecing together the broken statue on the floor next to the altar shows it to be a robed figure with four arms wielding kris daggers. Neither Crescenda nor Wilwick recognize the figure.

SCARY WIZARD Posted March 29 Clone Share Posted March 29 "Fable" the Beguiler Fable takes some time while the others are examining the more religious trappings in the area, to check the doors for trouble. Then, she will cast a spell of magic detection to assist her in finding anything else. As she does this, she will mutter to herself about the priest of Maglubiyet being "too crafty". Then, something will be muttered in Elven... "Be nice if we could get paid a little better, too... might negotiate that." It must just be idle banter coming from her... right?

Chaz Hoosier Posted March 29 Author Clone Share Posted March 29 (edited) Fable's search of the doors doesn't reveal much. With the aid of her spell she sees that the altar is magical. A spellcraft check would determine what kind of spell was cast on it.

It is worth a mention that over in academia, Maglubiyet merits the adjecctive vile for reasons I would rather not go into. The idol is not part of the arrangement for Maglubiyet, and neither is the demonic face over by the door. What function either of them serves I can only guess at. I could piece the statue together, maybe restore it with time, but I could only guess who or what it depicts. Crescenda needs a moment to steady her breath and a drink from her waterskin before continuing: "We are in luck with the skeletons: they are the lowest tier that magic allows for, and unenhanced at that. The priest may have had plans for creating more of them, since his god was allowing him the spellwork for it, and if so I hope we can find the materials needed. I'm almost certain gemstones will be involved." Another breath. Another moment to think. "I've not the spells left today to find magics. Unfortunate. Would our druid have a spark left?"

raxivort Posted April 4 Clone Share Posted April 4 Camlann Cobb "Judging from the demon faced arch over there and all the nasty looking daggers on the statue, I think it's safe to say that whoever was worshipped here before, they were probably no more a paragon of virtue than Maglubiyet," Camlann observes. "If the pieces aren't too heavy, I have space in my pack to bring the statue with us. I'm sure we can find a scholar to look into the identity of this godling when we return to town."

"Even though I'm tiny, it seems to be the perfect fit," Wilwick adds with a smile. Assuming no one objects or has a specific need for a miniature sized piece of armor, then the cleric will give the party his studded leather armor and dons the masterwork chain shirt.

Chaz Hoosier Posted April 6 Author Clone Share Posted April 6 The altar has a strong necromancy enchantment laid on it. It seems to boost the power of certain divine spells cast before it, probably for casters with an affinity to the deity it originally honored.
