"Come out, come out, wherever you are........ "
The force of Bigby's exorcism (for such it was) was so great that not only was the ghost of Sir Noxious expelled from Jeli, but the thing that had been possessing him and had caused him to go astray in his lifetime, was forced out in its turn. Scientists who study the occult call this dispendium sequentem but they just make things up to sound learned. Let's just say it's weird and leave it at that.
Now what, I hear you ask was this thing? What was it's nature and intent? And what was it doing in hell, inside the ghost of a fallen paladin? I'll give you a clue. You remember when Gandalf The Grey fell in Moria fighting a balrog? And the last thing he called out was "Fly, you fools, fly!" before he was dragged down into the abyss? Well, it was the same balrog.
WHAT ???
You put a level two party in hell, which is inhabited by devils, and you put them up against a CR19 demon that pops up out of nowhere and shouldn't be in that plane at all and you call this fun? what kind of DM are you?
Er, well, er ... maybe ...
"Sorry," said the balrog, "My mistake. Wrong thread. Don't know how this happened. Talk about Chaos. I'll just be going." and he vanished in a puff of red smoke leaving behind nothing but a sulphurous smell.
Is that better?
I should think so, too. Now about the sarcophagus full of treasure. It had better be good ...
