Mark's Campaign

1)    The group will emerge in the ruined quarters of Ciuq. He created a portal in here to connect his tower directly to the Waypoint complex since he would be residing in this wing. In addition, the collapse of the mountain has buried his teleport circle, but can be cleared away. During the devastation 2 years ago, a large chunk of the ceiling fell into this room damaging the portal, but keeping it in an ‘auto answer’ mode. Unfortunately, the portal can only be used as an incoming device unless it is repaired. In this room are the remains of a bed, chair and side table, all in a soft earthtone motif. It appears that the room was last inhabited a couple years ago. With a DC23 Per search of the room in the SE corner, a Scroll of Stoneskin (CL10) can be found. If the rubble is cleared from the SW corner, the teleport ring to the earth labs can be used.
2)    The wall between these two rooms has almost completely fallen down. The doors (x) have signs that something has battered it from the inside (angry earth elemental) which is visible on the outside corridor. Inside the room are a group of 6 angry medium earth elementals which will attack anyone who enters the room. (NOTE alert for Amulet of Elemental Strife – detect 60’, yellow glow for earth) The elementals can move through walls using earth glide.

3)    This room is more for storage than living. There are extra linens, chairs, basins, soap, water, dried foods, etc. in here. During the days when the rooms were occupied, one of the clerks used a barrel of dried beans to hide his treasure, a 4” gold key (holy symbol of Abadar) see handout. A follower of Abadar or someone who invokes his name, can use the key to produce a Knock spell 1/day.
4)    Grand Hall – This massive hall of dwarven architecture stretches as far as the eye can see. The ceiling is a great continuous arch, 40’ above the floor and continual flame torches illuminate the room from each column. This is where the two main portals of Waypoint are located. One connects to the Tooth and the other to Headwater. Both still function, but unless someone is at the other end (or knows how to bypass this limitation as the brothers did) they are useless. Part of the north wall has caved in and when anyone enters this room, an angry Huge Earth Elemental, which is at the far end of the room just out of sight, will attack.

5)    Molthune ambassador’s offices – The doors to these chambers has the symbol of Molthune, a crossed sword and hammer inscribed on them. These are the working offices where the ambassador and his clerks would work. One clerk was always stationed in the reception hall, and the rest, including security would be stationed here. These rooms are mostly intact, but an adventuring group of 4 Xorn are using it as their base of operations and are currently using the rooms to sleep after a day of adventuring. The xorn are intelligent, greedy and a bit belligerent, looking for gems and precious metals. However, they can be bribed to leave the party alone with enough gems or money of proper gp value (they want 200gp each). Otherwise they will attack the party for their loot. They have only been here for a couple days and have not found very much in the way of precious metals or gems. However, they will warn that there are a lot of angry earth elementals nearby.

​

6)    Administrator’s office – an old desk and two chairs are pushed up against the far wall. The xorn have been using these quarters for rest and recovery.
7)    The door to this room has been wedged shut by the xorn requiring a Str check DC23 to open. Inside the room are 4 sacks of snacks (gems and coinage) totaling 35 gems x 10gp, 28 gems x 25gp, 12 gems x 125gp, 6 gems x 350gp, 6 gems x 600gp, 1250 pp, 1875 gp, 3515 sp.
8)    This guard wing is where Nyl was housed while at Waypoint. His room is still in fairly good condition, bed made, fresh clothes in wardrobe, etc. On the floor of his room is the faint arcane symbols of the teleport circle, however, the receiving circle has been damaged in the air labs and this one will not work. The door to this room is trapped with a Glyph of Warding, Electricity 5d8, SR or Ref DC17 save for ½, DC28 detect/disable. The room is decorated in blues and whites with flowing silks and loose fabrics hanging from the walls.
9)    This room is a shambles; beds are flipped over, footlockers smashed, armor racks lay in pieces. Two of Nyl’s pets, a pair of Invisible Stalkers, have gone rogue in here and will attack anyone who enters the room. Hidden under a stone in the southwest corner is an old guard’s cache containing a sack with 1150gp, 220pp and a Headband of Inspired Wisdom +4.

Invisible Stalker CR 7

​

10)    This door has the symbol for Cheliax inscribed on it; a circle with a cross within it. Beyond this stuck DC26 Str door the mountain has collapsed on the other side. If the party is able to get through, they will only find a wall of dirt.
11)    This area has collapsed, blocking off the corridor. Only the single door before the collapse is accessible. Digging through is tricky due to the unstable nature of the collapse, but it can be carefully moved at a rate of 2 feet/person/hour. From the rooms, the clearing of the slide will allow the group to move farther into this area.
12)    Fedge’s living quarters – behind the locked door the room is mostly intact except for the NE corner. The room is decorated in soft blues, greens and white. An aquarium sits on the desk with the skeleton of a small fish within it. There is a small rack in the middle of the west wall with 2 pairs of goggles (Goggles of Water Breathing & Swimming +5). The portal on the floor of this room is fully functional and will take anyone who steps on it to Fedge’s water labs (and arrive underwater!). The walls in the corner near the circle continuously emit a mild Destroy Water spell that will dry a person’s clothes in about 2 rounds.
13)    The old dining room has been used by Fedge to spread out his notes and experiments. The table has 6 large shallow basins of water (each about 3” in diameter). Each basin’s contents has a different effect and 6 potions of each can be stored using the containers in here (76 empty vials total). 1) water breathing CL5 2) fly CL5 3*) cure critical wounds CL18 4) neutralize poison CL5 5) stoneskin CL7 6) passwall CL9. In addition to the glassware, components and basins, Fedge has stored here notes (like spellbook entries) for a Water Breathing, Water Walking, Touch of the Sea and Wall of Frost. 

In the bottom of basin 3 is a flat gray stone, the same color as the basin, about 2” in diameter, DC20 to notice it. The stone has a symbol inscribed on one side (Sarenrae-winged angel with halo of fire). This item is known as a Godstone (Religion DC30 to recognize), a minor relic usually bequeathed or awarded to a faithful follower of the Dawnflower. Finding it in this place, in this fashion is very unusual. Once per week, if held by a good or true neutral person and the goddess’ name is invoked, the Godstone can be used to empower up to 10 spell levels of positive (healing) power (does not have to be used all at once). The table below are some of the possible uses for this power:
