Secrets and Clues
Three monuments in Grayon's chamber resurrect the three hags of the Bloodrot coven. Each powers their dark magic.
The hags sucked out Grayon's soul and killed him. They used his powerful soul to fuel their terrible magics.
Centuries after the fall of the Nameless King, the noble bronze dragon Valystanian Grayon took one of the Nameless King’s keeps as his own lair.
For centuries the bronze dragon spent his days researching magic and studying the multiverse. Sages able to make the journey through Sunken Revvia sought council with the wise dragon.
About five hundred years ago, the Order of the Black Flame brought one of the three Blackfire Braziers to Grayon who swore to protect it in his inner sanctum.
Years later, several researchers calling themselves the Order of the Iron Rose visited Grayon – secretly led by three hags known as the Skullrot Coven. They killed Grayon, using his life energy to fuel their hideous experiments.
The hags have turned Grayon into an undead husk of his former self but part of his spirit still remains buried deep in his rotted corpse.
It will take some time for researchers to locate the doorway to the vault of the Key. Downtime!!
The Knights of the Nameless King have risen the Dread Necropolis in the Deadlands. They brought it from Arkus and it swarms with undead and devils loyal to the Nameless King. A death knight named Karavon the Gray Blade.
With the death of Irthrain of Choul, many of the remaining children of Abraxus killed themselves on the streets of the City of Arches. Those remaining joined the Knights of the Nameless King.
Kellen Graywinter has created three new poisons: Essence of Ether, Lolth's Sting, and Purple Worm Poison.
