[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 4453264, member: 54629"] I like this and I'm going to steal it! It'll help explain all the weird dreams and stuff I've been giving the players. If I reveal that Kalarel has known about them and has been expecting them (especially now that they've got the mirror -- perhaps he can sense its presence, particularly as they bring it closer to him?), then they'll hopefully have an "Ah! It all makes sense!" moment. ;) I don't know if I've mentioned this before but I am going to tie Kalarel in with Paldemar in H2. To that end, I might make Kalarel a secret follower of Vecna (who is a demigod exarch of the Shadow, in my campaign world) masquerading as a follower of Orcus to fool the goblins and such. BTW, I'm adding a goblin hexer to the chieftain's lair group (I removed some of the minions and a warrior, I think, so the total XP for the encounter is still the same). The hexer is going to be a fanatical follower of Orcus. Anyway, so Kalarel will have come from the Seven-Pillared Hall and he will have brought Bairwin with him as his supplier ... but rather than have Bairwin be a fellow cultist, I'm going to make it so that Kalarel made a deal with Bairwin -- I'll get you out of the hall and out of Brugg the ogre enforcer's clutches and you'll help me with my project.
