The aracocra reflavoring gave me an idea.
Refluff a nosoi (bird type of psychopomp) as a shoe bill. Absoluteky this. May i please PM you some related images
@Zardnaar ?
Yes.
I vetoed an Aaracokra request on a monk PC as the setting already has Ravenfolk. They don't fly.
Copy and pasted 23 suggestions for plot hooks, random encounters and red herrings.
Rolled child in reeds encounter didn't use it.
Tonight's encounters only two more RP and exploration. 3 or 4 encounter for the long rest.
Level 4 PCs.
1. Sunken barge, broken in half. PCs recovered disks used to open a sarcophagus underwater. 6 Lacedons. Recovered a blood Ruby.
2. Ruffians on the riverbank doing a shakedown. Monk figured out his spear that deals an extra 1d6 lightning damage and can fire a lightning bolt 1/long rest seems to have a will of it's own and doesn't fire lightning bolts at servents of Tiberish (DC15 wis save to override)
Bit of world building with "lady of the lake" who had bronze eyes matching last week's plesiosaur encounter. Described her with mist and leyline power dripping off her. The rivers a leyline.
They had a choice over keeping blood Ruby, bronze eyes sunk the barge. She's probably an adult bronze Dragon .
Some ancient history revealed, potential NPC contact they gave 3 factions who want the Blood Ruby.
Session ended with a wounded ratnan leading them to ancient temple if a Dragon Pharoah with Ruby eyes. Eyes exploded sending out a wave of necrotic energy.
A dessicated hand grabbed a PCs ankle as
desert zombie with glowing blue eyes crawled out if the sand.
