Plans for Kristianna

**Synopsis:** Kristianna Vysoren's player-written notes and other backstory (Alex does not know all of this).

* The succubus Kenora fell in love with a human she was sent to seduce named [first name here] Dyab. She became pregnant with his child before deciding whether or not to abandon her succubi powers and become mortal to stay with him, and he died shortly after this. She decided that she would have become mortal for him, and decided to take his last name.
* Her child, Bel Dyab, was raised by Kenora alone and was told that she was a succubus, rather than the truth that she is an Alu-Fiend (daughter of a female succubus and a human).
	+ This makes Kristianna 1/4 demon: Kenora, as a succubus, is a full demon, and Bel is an Alu-Fiend, the daughter of a succubus, so half demon.
* Kenora sent Bel to the material plane to seduce Randall Vysoren, an archivist at the Aquila Mage's College in Lucitus, to gain the power of his runic bloodline. She took the form of a tiefling.
* While they were together (Bel trying to seduce him), Randall took Bel on a trip to retrieve a set of runes for the college, and on the way back some unstable magic in the runes caused an explosion of magic. Randall saved Bel and narrowly survived himself, which caused Bel to give up being a succubus and stay with Randall. She later told him what her initial intentions were, and he eventually accepted it.
* Bel lost her succubi powers over time and became mortal. Shortly afterwards, the two got married and soon after had Kristianna.
* At the age of 9, a rune appeared on Kristy's forehead. Her father explains the accident he had that scarred his body, which he believes caused Kristianna to inherit her runic blood (which may be partially true; he already had a runic bloodline but the direct exposure to runes throughout his life and that explosion made it very likely to emerge in his children). Around the same time, her cousin Ömorhen was adopted by the family after his parents died.
* Although her parents tried to hide Kristianna's runic magic, she was eventually discovered by The Runehunters who wanted to steal her power. She and Ömorhen fled Aquila, eventually arriving in The Land of Eternal War.
* [Needs timeline of where they landed and how they got from there to Torvas/Forest of Novelty]
* A small group of Runehunters found her in The Val Highlands and killed her, causing the sword that dealt the killing blow to be enchanted with runic magic. However, Ömorhen Vysoren traded his life for hers, reviving her. Ömorhen's soul is now claimed by his warlock patron, Mr. Bigsby.

**Tie-ins:**

* The Runehunters have a base headquarters in Creston (City) and have been recruiting new members in the city and other areas. They have a presence in the Spring Pass area and small groups in Prylin and Wynne specifically waiting for Kristianna to pass through. They know she's in the region and have heard rumors of a blue tiefling in Torvas, but the group of Runehunters who were defeated by the party were not able to report back concretely or that she's with the party.
* In Spring Pass, The Scarlet Circle have started to get in conflicts with the Runehunters over their interrogation of travelers from Redwyn. The Scarlet Circle have learned that the Runehunters are after a blue tiefling coming from Redwyn.
	+ If the party enters a town in Spring Pass, there is a chance that Kristianna will be spotted by Runehunters, and she will be noticed by the Scarlet Circle unless she disguises herself.
	+ The Scarlet Circle at large will protect Kristy from Runehunters, but some members who know of the bounty they would get from the Runehunters for her capture may convince some of them to try to claim the bounty.
* Alexander Windstorm's volume of the Demonomicon has a page on a succubus named Kenora Dyab and her daughter Bel Dyab, a half-succubus alu-fiend. Kenora is stated to have previously inhabited Whitestone Labyrinth along with a number of other demons.

**Future Plans:**

* The Runehunters' headquarters in Creston will contain a lot of information about leads to more runic magic and even some Runechildren in the region. The headquarters will also have tools that can capture runes. Locations/descriptions of Runic locations and Runechildren are in The Runehunters page.
* Whitestone Labyrinth is a large, maze-like dungeon that lies under Crest Lake with multiple entrances in the Creston (City) sewers, but a main entrance can be found under the ruins of a small, ancient stone tower north of Creston known as Whitestone Tower. The Devouts of Zagyg have secured some parts near the entrance and made a rudimentary map of the first parts of the labyrinth, but most of it is unknown.
	+ The Devouts will offer to send a group of knights into the labyrinth with them to guide them through as much as they've mapped and help them go deeper as they know there are many demons in the labyrinth that they are bound by oath to slay.
	+ The final room will contain a number of items with runic magic and other magical artifacts. On the wall is a large, circular mirror on the wall that's pitch black with a red shine. If anyone touches the mirror, a red light is emitted from the mirror and everyone who does not have ties to the Abyss will have to pass a DC 15 Intelligence saving throw or take 6d6 Psychic damage (half on success). After a moment, a woman with blue skin, red hair, a long blue arrow-tipped tail, clawed hands, and a large pair of bat-like wings appears in the mirror, walking towards the party. She stands in front of the mirror on her side, looking at everyone. (the mirror is a portal to the Abyss)
	+ This woman is the succubus Kenora. She is the mother of Bel Dyab, Kristianna's mother. She had Bel with a human man, making her an Alu-Fiend (or Cambion). Also making Kenora Kristianna's grandmother (Bel's father gave her the Dyab name, and he would be long dead by now).
	+ She and Kristianna will have a brief telepathic conversation that will only last a few seconds for everyone else.
		- Idea: Kenora sent Bel to seduce Randall because she knew Randall's work and affinity with runes had imprinted him with unique magic. When Bel abandoned her mission and fell in love with Randall, she didn't interfere because she understood the temptation from her own previous affairs with humans.
			* Good ending: Kenora wants Kristianna to use her innate runic magic to help her bring Bel's father back so she can be with him again, finally giving up on being a succubus.
			* Bad ending: Kenora SAYS that's what she wants to do, but she's lying. If called out, she explains herself no further and tries to steal Kristianna's power herself, using some enchantments/charms or something through the portal to try to distract the party and get Kristianna to come through the portal.
			* Not sure which direction to go.
	+ After a moment, one of the Devouts will cast a spell that pulls Kenora through the mirror into the room. The Devouts will attempt to kill Kenora, and the party will have to decide what to do.
