New NPCs
Alistar Huma: Mad prophet of the Nebul Jihad, The Nine Stars of Chaos, he is the last scion of House Huma, a menacing, bestial starlock that haunts Saspien's Ruins. He predicts the end of all worlds in nine years in a prophecy relating to Kalinda and The Devourer. Details were found in riddles and sing-song, other times in eerie deadpan, but Diana showed no fear and learned a crucial portent that somehow includes her (see Star Child hook).
Oborl Scratch: A powerful demon on the level of Vrock, his abyssal aura produced vermin and affliction in all those near him: coughing up maggots, picking lice beds in the scalp, sneezing out grub, tugging tapeworms from anus. He appeared elephantine, gray, muscular, with two massive, curled horns used to impale a summoner and a face perpetually shadowed so only blazing eyes and a wide grin were visible, glowing even. Renato managed to convince the chaotic being to kill the drow binders and not the group. The demon, ever the gentleman, restored Regina to her senses free of charge (though its questionable whether or not that was the best move given her fragile state).
New Hooks
Star Child: Alistar spoke a startling prophecy congruent with all the knowledge gleaned in Spelltower and from the warforged regarding a Void Invasion and The Devourer from beyond the stars. The end of all worlds is swiftly on its way and the one hope for Creation involves the child born of virgin bride. The mad starlock kissed Diana's forehead and she knew, deep down, she was a part of it.
His sing-song was as follows: "When cosmic darkness does descend, and all the worlds come to their end, a child born of virgin bride will reignite the starry tide and call her sister back from doom and take her place as rightful moon."
Next Session
88b: The Dark Three and their enduring companions continue to battle through the Fallen Library, killing as they go, and hoping none in the sunken halls and adjoining caverns are up to the challenge.
