[QUOTE="s@squ@tch, post: 4031899, member: 42885"] [sblock=Yoggrith and Ipshivi] "My child, one cannot set foot upon the land of Xen'drik without being enveloped by exotic magics," the priest says while fingering his tattered brown robe. "This land has lived for centuries in Shadow -- and only now has the shining light of the world focused upon it." "This recent attention does not discourage those who follow the true path of enlightenment -- for we of Shadow are ever present and will not be denied our place." "As far as dweomers and such, the only thing the Shadow has shown to me is that there have been unnatural shadows cast in this land -- from where these shadows have arose -- this has escaped me." "However, I have not witnessed any of these unnatural shadows up to this point in time." At the mention of the Silver Flame, the priest bristles slightly. "Those who follow such false sources of shadow only delude themselves. They will never understand their place in the world." [/sblock] [sblock=Sanne and Aeranduil] The grisly sight leaves you with only questions. Neither one of you has ever witnessed such a sight, and can only speculate upon the methods one would leave such a grevious wound. The Stormlord guards try their best to keep the peace -- basically by keeping the townspeople at a distance from the corpse. Your brief acquaintance with Barrak has only fueled the chaotic train of thought within your own minds -- who would want Barrak dead? What information did he have? Did this have anything to do with your group? Or was this completely unrelated? [/sblock] [sblock=Morika] The giant's face twists in thought,"My child, I have not heard of anyone who has it in fer the folks of Tharashk -- they have not treated the giants unfairly, for they be only interested in the shards of creation -- not dominion over the lands of Xen'drik." "What goes on beyond the outskirts of Stormreach be unfamiliar to me at this point -- twas time when I be a younger lad that I knew the goings on of giantfolk more..." He furrows his brow and looks off into the distance. "Only thing I can tell ye is that the giants I knew as a lad would never attack those who did not harm them." [/sblock] [sblock=Voadam] The drow of Xen'drik are not necessarily cruel -- they are nomadic hunters by nature, and the movements of the clan are determined by the abundance of food. They appear to be sensitive to light and make use of various scorpion based poisons. Tharashk envoys have encountered by divine and arcane magic using drow, but it appears that they tend to favor those versed in the ways of the woodsman. As far as the Scorrow go, the logical connection between scorpions and drow makes sense, but Tharashk scouts have witnessed Scorrow young -- meaning that the race breeds true, and are not some magical creation -- at least, at this point in time. Dream serpents are magical beasts named for the hallucinatory effects fo their venom, having no relation to the couatl. The accounts of the new encounters are somewhat lacking, only making mention of unnatural looking creatures transforming into hideous abominations, which struck fear into even the most hardy of hunters.
