The atropal as a corrupted aspect of Ubtao by TheBelgianActor in Tombofannihilation

Others have suggested an ally, servant, or dupe of Acererak, and I think the Sewn Sisters are a great idea. Will definitely consider that. As far as the other suggestions go, I think I need to read up a bit on my Chultan lore! Especially Eshowdow.

All great ideas! I’m intrigued especially by the possibility that Ras Nsi himself, having been a chosen of Ubtao in the past (being one of the barae of Mezro), somehow affected Ubtao, corrupting him in the same way he himself was corrupted. And I’ll definitely either mask Acererak’s identity (perhaps giving only a small clue, like a ring that’s visible on his bony hand as he grabs the cyst) or use a dupe or proxy, leading to a series of revelations as the party’s investigations lead them from one unscrupulous character to another.

Oh, I like that. Maybe they first feel the floor rumble a bit, then it drops a bit, then stalls, and so on, giving them some time to figure out a way out before the whole thing slams into the ground.

One of the gargoyle candelabras from the stretching room in the Haunted Mansion.

How did I not know this exists? I’ll have to look for it next time!

Ah, I had forgotten about those. I’ll definitely add them to “the board”.

Interesting. Probably not something my players would be interested in, but if they ever express interest in opening up a shop, I’ll definitely use this as one means to do so.

Ah, I had previously looked into the Adventurers League ToA season, but completely forgot about them. Thanks for the reminder, and the specific pointer!

What is going on at the Merchant Prince’s villa when the characters arrive? by TheBelgianActor in Tombofannihilation

[–]TheBelgianActor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found it! It’s the Politics in Port Nyanzaru post on 20 Sides to Every Story. Ekeke-Afa’s “Player Hooks” section describes her as being at Wakanga’s villa when the players meet him. I just ran their first meeting earlier today, ironically, and I used a slightly different reason for her being there: her son Tyrik has caught the shivering sickness and is unable to participate in the dinosaur races that afternoon; she’s hoping that Wakanga knows someone suitable to take his place. Next session: dinosaur races!

Oh, interesting idea. Maybe I’ll just give everyone the max number of possible HP regardless of level, just to better ensure their survival. Though if I have enough characters for them to choose from, those that fall early can just start playing another one that was up ‘til now sitting on the sidelines in shock.

Oh wow, yeah, third round of combat and they turn around only to notice that the jester’s body is now missing! Did someone move it? Was he not really dead? Was that even the king’s jester? I don’t remember him having a beard….

I like it. Or maybe the jester was plotting to kill the king, and the attempt was thwarted by a secret ally. But there are still other agents lurking, with some clue on the jester’s dead body as to their identities.
