[QUOTE="Slaygrim, post: 4005865, member: 59401"] Some notes: I came up with Ornikali as a name for the Spellweavers and not necessarily the one in which the PCs are dealing with, although he may refer to himself as Ornikali. I created this name by doing a little research. Spellweavers are barely medium sized monstrous humanoids that have bird-like features and six arms. Ornithology is the study of birds, and Kali is a 6 armed deity from India. How this ties into the Realms... I don't know, I just wanted the name I gave them to have some meaning. Thus ornithology and Kali became Ornikali. The ideas that are forming in my mind are to have this particular Spellweaver as an upgraded version of the ones you find in MM II. I want him to be able to access spells of 9th level at least. I hear that a Spellweaver has a Level Adjustment of +7 which will mean I will have to put him into Epic Levels in order to access that. This Spellweaver I planned on having a story regarding him being trapped or transformed into a monolith in one of the cities or tribal area's of Chult. The locals will believe his voice (since he can communicate telepathically) is that of Ubtao. I want there to be story upon story regarding nearly everything I do here. Even with the Labors. Whoever is holding the artifact, be it a Thayan Archmage or a beholder, I want a backstory explaining how they came upon these artifacts. Such as if the phaerimm of the Anauroch have one, it can be tied back to Chult through the Sarrukh. The Sarrukh had major cities in Chult and Isstosseffifil was located where modern day Anauroch lies. In fact it was the phaerimm themselves that instigated the downfail of Isstosseffifil, thus the artifact could have remained in their possession for over 30,000 years. The same could be said if the Yuan-ti have one, as they were created by the Sarrukh. My biggest problem in putting all of this together is to understand what Halicron is doing now that he is returned, why the Spellweaver is involved, and how it all ties to these artifacts of the Sarrukh.
