Key Moments

  • Stole the Bottomless Flask from Ronbok early in the campaign
  • Acquired a Rope of Climbing from Joey Lokbrass — a magical rope that talks and barks
  • Traded the Bottomless Flask to Joey Lokbrass for two Rings of Resistance
  • Won the sewer map by gambling
  • Lost a pinky finger while sneaking into the church
  • Killed Laudna Briarwood with the final blow
  • Killed Loryn Vethas with the final blow in his secret lab
  • Freed Aldur from chains in the Obsidian Prison
  • Crystal ball scrying: Successfully scryed his brother Aldur in the Obsidian Prison — saw him exhausted, chained to an obsidian pillar
  • Sexual tension with Dalaiah aboard The Golden Minnow
  • Tasted Sylva’s remains — scooped up the black residue left after Sylva Goldenroar turned to ash and ate it; offered some to Nyxara, who refused
  • Hidden history with Drar — entering the Scalded Market in Session 61 flooded him with memories, possibly from his childhood. He recognises the city’s layout and knows of an influential local group, but has not disclosed any of this to the party
  • Received a mysterious note — a hooded figure in green-brown rags slipped a rock wrapped in a written paper into his pocket in the Scalded Market. The contents are known only to him
  • Returned to the Coiled Fang in Session 62 — visited his old haunt where Vex greeted him warmly and served his “usual” (moonshine and roasted pork). Met Issa, a new recruit
  • Learned Robin was in DrarVex told him that Robin had been at the Coiled Fang about 20 minutes prior and left with someone he was waiting for
  • Tracked Robin to an abandoned tavern — interrogated children playing football for directions, then found a blood-soaked, trap-rigged building. In rat form, he triggered an acid trap; upon entering, he was hit by poison smoke and confronted by a blood-covered man with a barrel
  • Killed Robin in cold blood — pretended to free him and team up against Sneid Arkmos, then stabbed him through the heart. Mutilated the body in a rage while saying “you know they were innocent”
  • Met Sneid Arkmos — after a brief fight, they realised they were both hunting Robin. Shared wine and conversation at the Ambercup, then shook hands and became allies. Asked Sneid not to mention the Black Senate to the party
  • Got extremely drunk with Sneid at the Ambercup, forgot his room keys, and needed Sneid’s light to lockpick his own door while barely able to see straight
  • Reunited with Silk in Session 64 — the red-skinned tiefling and old Black Senate friend helped herself to his flask at the Ambercup. She traded information for a private walk, during which a quiet romantic moment broke through the tension. They agreed to meet again the next day, and she gave him an address that led the party to Aldrick Voss
  • Linked with Nyxara via psychic whispers during the walk and again at Cinder Row, where he slipped through a window, picked a locked chest, and found an Empire chest plate — warning Nyxara through the whispers
  • Fought in the brawl at The Vulnerable Swordsman (Session 65Session 66) — got pulled into starting it when Jaruul tricked him with “look, melons!”, threw daggers, unleashed and then dispelled his own Vermin Shroud fog mid-fight, and looted a broken gun from Rurik Drenn’s body. His attempt to intimidate the last bandit failed — Sneid Arkmos showed him “how it’s done”
  • Showed off for Kailas in Session 67 — inspected the Signet of the Silent Guard, then made it vanish and reappear with sleight of hand before using Dark Leap to teleport behind Kailas and drop it on the table: “It’s magic.”
  • Returned to the Red Vale alone that night — to a rooftop hideaway from his past life — where Silk found him. A long, intimate conversation about his exile, her ties to Drar, and a possible future together ended in a kiss
  • Pointed Silk toward Robin’s killer without admitting his own guilt — directing her to the Abandoned Tavern where Robin died, insisting “it wasn’t vengeance” and that Robin “was doing very bad things.” Left her with a new resolve: “Now I might actually have a reason not to die”
  • Negotiated the Sand Witch rental with Sulk at Drar’s Eastern gate, pitching a fish-jerky trade partnership to Jinsan to win a discount

Dalaiah’s Prophecy

“Your fortune will change when you see a three-eyed raven.”


The Black Senate

  • Dristuul is a former member of the Black Senate, a secretive organization. He left the organization at some point before the campaign.
  • During a night watch, Aldur confided that he is also a member. Dristuul warned him to be careful — especially around Robin, whom he does not trust.
  • Dristuul has connections to members named Silk, Whisper, Lesha, and Robin.
  • In Session 64, Silk sought him out in Drar and warned that Lesha already knew he was in the city — and that Robin’s disappearance had made her wary of him.
  • Theros overheard their Draconic conversation about the Senate using Comprehend Languages and confronted Dristuul about it.

Relationships

  • Aldur — Brother. Dristuul searched for him relentlessly and freed him from the Obsidian Prison. Both share a connection to the Black Senate. Told him “I love you” during a night watch — Aldur said it back.
  • Yllira Quen — Shopkeeper in Shalarag. They had a date and an overnight stay at her place.
  • Sly — Raccoon companion. Very attached to Dristuul; gets jealous when Dristuul has “other pets.”
  • Raven Queen — Patron deity. Communes with her via rituals.
  • Sneid Arkmos — Bounty hunter met while hunting Robin. Fought, drank, and allied. Dristuul asked him to keep the Black Senate secret from the party.
  • Dalaiah — Cryptic tiefling seer aboard The Golden Minnow. Unresolved tension.
  • Silk — Red-skinned tiefling and old Black Senate friend, now openly a lover. After a rooftop night in the Red Vale (Session 67), Dristuul vowed to return to her one day — “now I might actually have a reason not to die.”
  • Lesha — A Black Senate figure in Drar who is wary of Dristuul’s return, especially after Robin’s disappearance.
