Incredible: you finished the SC with only one remaining PC action before the countdown clock expired!Rewards: Necrotic Energy Field L1 Hazard 100 XP + Blood Streams L1 Hazard 100 XP + L1 C1 Skill Challenge 100 XP + Deathlock Wight L3 Controller 150 XP + Grasping Zombie L1 Brute 100 XP + 6 Wisp Wraiths L1 Minions 25 XP x 6=150 = 700 XP/4 PCs = 175 XP/PCTreasure: Ceremonial blade (60 gp) (Parcel 1.9)After the flash of radiant energy, the wounded creature on the altar opens its eyes, intakes air in a painful gasp, and sits upright, its black-feathered wings bristling with the movement. Pearlescent orbs stare at you from a tenebrous visage."You have my thanks, mortals. I am called Abaddon, and I serve the Duskmaiden." It pauses, giving Jendi a concerted stare before continuing. "Though my body was unaware, my roaming mind did witness your heroics here. You have proven yourselves worthy of my Mistress's notice, having vanquished servants of Her eternal enemy. And due reward is yours." [It turns to whichever PC you choose to receive the Boon.]"Alas, more evil lurks in this place, the filth responsible for the stain of further undeath in your mortal world. Something below," it beckons to the maw of Orcus gaping in the center of the nave."Would you follow the Duskmaiden's will, you would defeat this undeath before it has further chance to propagate itself. Your reward would be rich: potent armor once worn by a champion of my Mistress, a champion corrupted." It looks at Jendi once again. "Perhaps other riches. But your will on such matters is your own. You have already served The Raven Queen's designs here. Lamentably, I cannot aid you in this task, for my Queen calls me to her side. Yet you may ask of me one question on these matters before I depart, and I shall answer this to my fullest capability."You have reached another Milestone. Each PC gains 1 Action Point.Take a Short Rest, spending (and noting) Healing Surges spent and remaining.One PC receives the Skill Challenge incentive Boon, The Raven Queen's Shroud. Please note your choice.In addition, you may make a Religion check about any single topic related to "these matters" (ie, the Raven Queen-Orcus struggle, the history of her fallen champion, what befell Abaddon to account for its capture here, and so on). Frame the specifics of your question, and we'll handle the outcome Dungeon World's Spout Lore-style: if you succeed at the Hard DC (19), I will tell you something interesting and useful. If you meet the Moderate DC (12), I will tell you something interesting, but it's up to you to make it useful. If you fail to meet the Moderate DC, I will still tell you something interesting, but it will reveal an unwelcome truth.You have no obligation to continue to the scene below, but if you do, you can be sure that Jendi's desired Armor of Dark Majesty is (part of) the reward. It would be a L+4 combat encounter.</blockquote>
