Doll Parts

The Strangers With Weapons continue through the Tomb of Annihilation and come face to face with their dark reflections.

## Major Plot Points

* SWW descended into the fifth level of the Tomb of Annihilation.
* They explored a long hallway where they found the Eye of Zaltec - a ruby pendant with a spiky gold ring around. If the wielder kills a humanoid by stabbing them in the heart with the Eye, they can resurrect a dead creature as long as they have the dead creature’s essence or a personal belong.
* Draga found a secret cell that was flooded with water. After discovering the floor was hinged, she pushed it open and swam into a dirty underground lake. She found an Aboleth named Leviathan swimming in the water. Leviathan had been kidnapped 150 years ago by Acererak and has lived in the tomb ever since. She asked that she please find a way to release her.
* The first room the party entered was like a massive greenhouse filled with vibrant plants. A Venus Man Trap lured Calypso away from the party and tried to attack her. Draga and Sudsy successfully held her back and the SWW fought off the plant monster
* The next room was an aquarium filled with sharks, colorful fish, and coral reefs with a large inground swimming pool in it. A Sharknado came out of the pool and attacked the party. The Strangers were able to beat the monstrosity.
* The party found themselves in a small temple-like room next. Images depicted a female angel slaughtering the wicked. Voloth read from the book in the room and summoned a valkyrie. The valkyrie addressed Vlad like she knew him but he clarified he wasn’t the clone so the valkyrie attacked the party.
* The SWW entered a hallway that was made entirely of mirrors with a mirror knight guarding it. The party attacked it but continually suffered the damage they were dealing against it themselves. Draga figured out that the Strangers had to attack themselves to injure the knight.
* The next hallway was knee-deep high in blood that was being poured in from fountains that looked like people crying blood. Voloth dumped oil into the blood and set it on fire. This summoned the blood elementals who began to burn. The Strangers made quick work of them.
* In an adjacent room, the SWW found five beds that ranged in size for medium to large creatures. Vlad found turquoise and seafoam green dresses in a wardrobe, which Calypso stole. Sudsy found a vial of blood, Calypso’s stolen hairbrush, Vlad’s nails, and Neuriel’s cup on the alchemy kit. The party deduced this was the bedroom of the SWW clones.
* They continued on and found themselves in a library where the clones of Calypso, Voloth, Neuriel, and Vlad greeted them.
	+ Clone Voloth: When I kill you, father will finally have a son he can be proud of.
	+ Clone Calypso: I’ll start by killing you. Then our sisters. Then our parents. And then I’ll take the Oral Coral Kingdom.
	+ Clone Neuriel: I’m not going to kill you. I’m going to hurt you. Then heal you. Then hurt you again.
	+ Clone Vlad: I can’t wait to see Queen Maxima’s face when her first knight buries a sword in her chest.
* The party entered into an epic battle against their doppelgangers. Clone Neuriel fell first. Then Clone Vlad who was killed by his original. Clone Voloth fell third. And Clone Calypso fell last by her original’s hand. The SWW found the golden triangle key to the final level on their corpses.
