Dark Rumblings

"It was a pretty extensive underground temple they had there," Marie chimes in. "Plus those twelve were pretty talented, even if not on our level. They probably have underlings strewn throughout the town, and neighbouring ones as well. Remember the Sharrans from Kesse were able to operate all the way over in the Baronies just fine, so I expect this group has long fingers too."

[Anastasia]

"Then we'll be busy," Jessica agrees, as...

Anything to do before you get info from the interrogations?

[Ebiris]

Just monitor our guys raiding the underground temple. They can all come home after it's been cleaned out.

[Anastasia]

Gimme a d100, then.

[Ebiris]

There's some traps - and injuries but nothing fatal. As you watch over that, Antenora returns. "We have the information," she begins, "The rot is artificial and the result of a powerful Sharran. Have you heard of the Shadow Twelve?"

[Ebiris]

Knowledge for that?

[Anastasia]

K:P.

[17:57] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+80 buffed planes check

[Anastasia]

You've heard a few rumors, nothing solid, whispers of intelligence over the years. Of a group of twelve Sharrans Shar has gathered, elite warriors who can accomplish any task. Said to be capable of setting up cults and seeding entire worlds to their doom.

[Ebiris]

"I may have. Elite warriors and troubleshooters for Shar's various errands with a focus on establishing cults?" she asks Antenora.

[Anastasia]

"That's them. These twelve here were instructed and aided by one of the Twelve," Antenora explains. "Dragodan, a unholy favored soul and champion of Shar. A human, no less. It's the first I've heard of a name for any of them."

[Ebiris]

"Would've been too much to hope that these twelve were the very same," Alicia says.

"How long had he been instructing them?" Marie pipes up. "It sort of makes me think of the routine Taelfagn had with his nine on Lifasa."

[Anastasia]

Antenora frowns deeply, "The thought did occur to me, but a month or two. "It was too much to hope for, unfortunately. From all reports Dragodan is wandering the Fiefdoms and surrounding kingdoms. Mostly the ones to the west from what they know, but we can't rule out his interference in the Baronies or further east."

[Ebiris]

"I think we need to be pro-active on this one," Alicia says. "Marie, I'm putting you in charge of finding him. Turn over any stones you need to on the prime - we can try magical approaches from here but with only a name and at best a likeness from our prisoners I don't anticipate much luck with scrying."

Marie raises a hand to her brow in a salute. "You can count on me! If there's any other Sharran cults lurking around I'll root them out."

"Good," Alicia nods, before she turns back to Antenora. "Did they give any other leads on Dragodan or their own short term plans?"
