| + | |||
| + | the two of them possessed blood that was compatible in some which could be used in the creation of things, including the cargs | ||
| + | |||
| + | blood in the cargs was probably someone of diran descent | ||
| + | |||
| + | it was the blood of douge and mygrandin that was used to create a weapon against the cargs | ||
| + | |||
| + | the blood was made to use a poison that affected the cargs that was distributed to the heroes of the age and to many men at arms | ||
| + | |||
| + | that stopped when douge gangei went traitor in the last year of the marco wars | ||
| + | |||
| + | cargs themselves are immortal or near-immortal | ||
| + | |||

| + | he noticed that Fagan has the Halberd of Davish, which was lost ever since the end of the Marco Wars | ||
| + | |||
| + | Kobain was very interested in the who the party was and how they became to be so knowledgable and in possession of Marco Wars relics | ||
| + | |||
| + | Halberd of Davish was well known to be able to slice down cargs left and right | ||
| + | |||
| + | it was effective against both cargs and spellweavers | ||
| + | |||
| + | Davish was one of Mygrandin's generals; he led the dwarven contingent of the army | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''ANY LAST KNOWN LOCATIONS OF PENDANTS?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Mygrandin's pendants? Those are very hard. Mygrandin himself knew that the pendants were very potent and possibly able to corrupt. Before Mygrandin dies, he went to great efforts to hide all seven pendants of Dira. Those that he recovered from Douge, he hid as well. He did not get all seven of Douge's pendants. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''POSSIBLE TO PURIFY CORRUPTED DIRATE?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | I believe the COrrellon Larethian folks have cleansed some corrupted dirate. Back near the end of the tyranny, a lot of the elves had gathered up a lot of the corrupted dirate used by Marco and went to work trying to cleanse it. It didn't go very well; many powerful elves perished while trying to cleanse it. If you go to Arvandolan and speak with Jera at the Temple of Correllon Larethian, she is a mystic theurge there and she would be best to know if any such ritutals still exist. most of the dirate still in the world today has been claimed by various powerful organizations. Many churches, many kingdoms have gained them and kept them under lock and key. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''WHAT ABOUT THIS SHIT ON MY FOREHEAD?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | That looks pretty gay. You should maybe get that looked at... No, he doesn't say that. That is the sigil of Patrick Stempilos. That is very interesting. why do you all have that on your forehead. It doesn't mean anything really: it means Patrick Stempilos. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''MARK OF HEROES?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | No, that doesn't mean anything. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THE GREAT SEAL OF DIRA WERE OPENED?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | The great seal of dira is a very interesting thing. All that's protecting is the mountain where dirate comes from. If the great seal were to collapse AND you could get to Dira, you could go into the mountain and get some raw dirate that could be used to make powerful magic items. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Dirate itself is malleable. You can actually change it a bit. It all depends on how long a piece of dirate has been set in its purpose to see how easy it is to change. Any dirate from Marco's time would be very very difficult to manipulate. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The bloodspear of gruumsh was wielded by one of Marco's demodan lts. It was repurposed by the Church of Gruumsh who were able to work it and wield it to their ends. If gruumsh's agents knew you had that, they would be after big time. yeah, they're coming after you. | ||
| + | |||
| + | You guys are in trouble. They're sending.... How long have you had it. How many scrying sensors have you noticed? | ||
| + | |||
| + | many pieces of dirate that were repurposed to specific churches were morphed into only being able to be used by the priests of that religion | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''FORSHANTIR SPIRITS?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | souls that are leaking out of corrupted dirate; a lot of the corrupted dirate that is used a lot and lot, the spirits will be ejected and be out to kill whoever they can. | ||
| + | |||
| + | DO YOU KNOW OF ANYWAY TO SAFELY PROJECT YOURSELF INTO DIRATE? SOMETIMES YOU CAN PROJECT YOUR SOUL INTO A PIECE LIKE A DEMIPLANE. | ||
| + | |||

The party also received additional invitations from other elven noble houses. The party snubbed them all and took up residence at the The Promiscious Pixie, an inn in the House Loralil branches of the Father Tree.

ANY LAST KNOWN LOCATIONS OF PENDANTS?
Mygrandin's pendants? Those are very hard. Mygrandin himself knew that the pendants were very potent and possibly able to corrupt. Before Mygrandin dies, he went to great efforts to hide all seven pendants of Dira. Those that he recovered from Douge, he hid as well. He did not get all seven of Douge's pendants.
POSSIBLE TO PURIFY CORRUPTED DIRATE?
I believe the COrrellon Larethian folks have cleansed some corrupted dirate. Back near the end of the tyranny, a lot of the elves had gathered up a lot of the corrupted dirate used by Marco and went to work trying to cleanse it. It didn't go very well; many powerful elves perished while trying to cleanse it. If you go to Arvandolan and speak with Jera at the Temple of Correllon Larethian, she is a mystic theurge there and she would be best to know if any such ritutals still exist. most of the dirate still in the world today has been claimed by various powerful organizations. Many churches, many kingdoms have gained them and kept them under lock and key.

That looks pretty gay. You should maybe get that looked at... No, he doesn't say that. That is the sigil of Patrick Stempilos. That is very interesting. why do you all have that on your forehead. It doesn't mean anything really: it means Patrick Stempilos.
MARK OF HEROES?
No, that doesn't mean anything.
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THE GREAT SEAL OF DIRA WERE OPENED?
The great seal of dira is a very interesting thing. All that's protecting is the mountain where dirate comes from. If the great seal were to collapse AND you could get to Dira, you could go into the mountain and get some raw dirate that could be used to make powerful magic items.
Dirate itself is malleable. You can actually change it a bit. It all depends on how long a piece of dirate has been set in its purpose to see how easy it is to change. Any dirate from Marco's time would be very very difficult to manipulate.
The bloodspear of gruumsh was wielded by one of Marco's demodan lts. It was repurposed by the Church of Gruumsh who were able to work it and wield it to their ends. If gruumsh's agents knew you had that, they would be after big time. yeah, they're coming after you.
You guys are in trouble. They're sending.... How long have you had it. How many scrying sensors have you noticed?
many pieces of dirate that were repurposed to specific churches were morphed into only being able to be used by the priests of that religion
FORSHANTIR SPIRITS?
souls that are leaking out of corrupted dirate; a lot of the corrupted dirate that is used a lot and lot, the spirits will be ejected and be out to kill whoever they can.
DO YOU KNOW OF ANYWAY TO SAFELY PROJECT YOURSELF INTO DIRATE? SOMETIMES YOU CAN PROJECT YOUR SOUL INTO A PIECE LIKE A DEMIPLANE.
I've never heard of a piece of dirate that could do that.
MALIC ASKS ABOUT MANSION?
The way that you describe it that sounds like Marco's Mansion. Marco's Mansion is something from the distant distant past of Marco's time of the mansion he lived in before he conquered the world. The history of that time has been all but lost. At some point Mygrandin visited a demi-plane where he described having to fight his way through Marco's Mansion.
WE THINK ONE OF THE PENDANTS MAY HAVE THAT ABILITY.
of course, the Travel pendant of Dira was able to get around some of the restrictions on inter-planar travel during the Dei Exsilium.
CAN YOU SHED ANY LIGHT ON WHERE MARCO CAME FROM?
No, not really. During Marco's conquering the world, he was very, very eager to destroy all records. entire units of his army were dedicated to destroying records. He was very, very cruel to those that were learned, those that were sages. he would target them and wipe them out.
A lot of the sages who knew what were going on traveled from Fharlanghn's groups, so that they would be safe. Most of what we know of those times are from those sages. Most written record was destroyed.
DEI EXSILIUM?
No one can figure how you could pull the wool over the eyes of the gods without them knowing. There is know way that a god would not get a whiff of what was going on. Gods have senses that can tell when something involving their portfolios.
Marco's knowledge of the arcane rivaled that of the gods.
Mygrandin went on a very epic quest before the marco wars. Mygrandin was a very experienced fighter with sword and shield but he was also very knowledgable in the arcane. He traveled to many lands and gathered many items of power before he went against marco. part of mygrandin's quest: he began his quest on Dira; the 7 pendants of dira were from dira, he collected them from there. Several quests to get those pendants. when he left dira, one of his first encounters was with Bevoc Bevo, who gave him an item that allowed him to access marco's mansion.

They call it the Forshantir.
Fagan's halberd is called the halberd of davish
Jera is a mystic theurge with corellon larethian at arvandolan that may know something about cleansing corrupted dirate.
