[QUOTE="Bruize, post: 6082658, member: 18735"] A little background on the situation. During the Dying Skyseer module, I had 2 PCs die. The group was rather attached to 1 and the other was shaping up to be a great addition so I decided to allow a resurrection with some favors. I introduced [URL="http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/zeitgeist-the-gearheart-saga/wikis/magtheda"]Magtheda, the dark witch[/URL]. She is meant to be a mysterious and largely unreadable npc. In exchange for her favor, she had the surviving PCs sign a contract in blood. Incidentally, she is an old "acquaintance" of our version of Delft and always calls him by his first name. :devil: During the resurrection of the party's rogue (party face) she was caught in the act of "sexual healing" with the rogue's corpse. Now, at the beginning of Digging for Lies, she has returned with a side mission for the team. One of them who signed the contract or were resurrected must drink a potion and then eat the flesh of one of the summoned creatures (although her description of the creatures was mysterious and cryptic). During the conversation, it came to light that she may have a baby bump from her previous appearance. I'm unsure where to take it at this point. I figured she would be using some kind of arcane or shadow magic to advance her own agenda which apparently includes a part changeling child. I thought perhaps the side mission might play into this by somehow empowering the child but I'm not really sure where to take it from here. If it were any other world I might be able to slap this thing together but I want to make sure it fits into the campaign well. [/QUOTE]
