## **BLOOD AND WATER**

* **WHAT WOMEN WANT**
	+ The group decides to go down to investigate the FIGUREHEAD on the 1st floor
		- It is about 1000lbs of DARK CHARDALYN in the form of a WINGED DEMON
		- As they circle it, they see a pale woman tied to the demon statue.
		- She starts to weep as they approach
	+ CLAYMONT attempts to touch her and aid her with a heal, but senses she is in fact a GHOST
		- This aligns with the aura GORIN was feeling with his GOROMETER
	+ When SKITTER lights the torches on this side of the FIGUREHEAD, it becomes more clear to all that she is an apparition
	+ GROVER can now see it better and recognizes the WINGED DEMON
		- It depicts ERRTU, a BALOR DEMON that terrorized ICEWIND DALE over a century ago
	+ CLAYMONT asks her name as her ropes suddenly loosen
		- She exclaims that she is not “The only spirit imprisoned here”
		- When the ropes have finally fallen, she lunges
	+ SKITTER attempts to win her over by attacking with NECROTIC damage
		- This calms her long enough to learn that she refers to herself as the WHITE LADY
		- She wants to “go back to the lake”
		- LAC DINNESHERE is mentioned which immediately sets her off again
		- She fails to possess SKITTER before the rest jump into action
	+ CLAYMONT grapples her quickly with his REVENANT’S LASH
		- GORIN follows suit to grapple lashes her as well
		- BEHLEN sees this and assumes this is their GHOST capturing process, and joins in with his
		- While completely immobilized, SKITTER goes in to weaken her with an ELDRITCH blast, but does too much damage
		- She is dissipates, defeated, and leaves fading ectoplasm
	+ They chat for a few minutes about who was supposed to do what

* **TRYING NOT TO FAE FROM THE PLAN**
	+ Now that the WHITE LADY has been dispatched, GROVER examines the DARK CHARDALYN DEMON STATUE more closely
	+ BEHLEN proceeds to check a nearby door to the east being cautiously quiet
		- Inside he hears many little voices
		- When he cracks the door and peaks inside, he sees 8 SPRITE like creatures complaining to each other as they scribe and file paperwork
		- He quietly closes the door and insist they skip that room
	+ The team investigates the north rooms finding a storage room for chairs and a records room
	+ BEHLEN takes the lead into the hallway leading north and listens to another door
		- Inside he hears singing and again takes care to peer inside
		- Within the SPEAKER’S OFFICE he sees an array of animated objects walking, hopping and flying about
		- They serenade each other about local government tasks and fees
		- BEHLEN again closes the door, wanting nothing to do with that

* **FOUR OF A KIND**
	+ GORIN insists that the gang investigate the stairs leading into the basement
	+ He descends first seeing a flickering light at the bottom
	+ In front of him is a doorway into a smaller room with 4 SATYRS playing cards
	+ They notice GORIN and are shocked to see him, drawing their weapons
		- GORIN charges in and the others quickly back him up
		- They quickly kill 3 of them and take 1, STOK as a prisoner
	+ STOK is interrogated by the group
		- When asked about EDIN, he explains that he is outside summoning the WINTER QUEEN
		- He also shares that he and his SATYR friends were guarding this floor’s prison for the “real” guard who left for a bit
		- They are guarding a lone prisoner further down the hall
	+ They have STOK lead them to the prisoner
	+ While being the last to leave the room, CLAYMONT claims the deck of cards on the table

* **FATAL FAE FAMILY FEUD**
	+ They are led past 4 cells, 3 containing mutilated bodies
	+ STOK assures them that he and his friends hand nothing to do with that
	+ After the final chamber appears to be an interrogation room with a SPIRIT chained to the wall and the mangled corpse of a dog
	+ SKITTER uses his cantrip again to revive the SPIRIT with NECROTIC energy
	+ The group then begins to questions this ethereal prisoner
		- He claims to be NADDIN, the twin brother of EDIN
		- EDIN stole his body and kept his spirit prisoner, tortured by EDIN and “others”
		- EDIN is using the bell to summon the WINTER QUEEN against her will to this realm to barter
		- His brother’s motivation has always been the love of LALILLIYA
		- He also shares that a woman named ZEX has visited him in private from time to time
	+ BEHLEN shows him the tattoo from NATTERPLUME, gaining NADDIN’s trust
		- NADDIN suggests that he check the drawer in the desk
		- There, BEHLEN finds the SCRIMSHAW WHISTLE broken in two
		- BEHLEN keeps the pieces
	+ BEHLEN then recommends that they group work to get NADDIN’s spirit back into his body after expelling EDIN
		- NADDIN agrees to go with them after they explain the CREEPY CREEL to him
		- He gives his word that he will help them to stop EDIN from retaking the body by taking it back and that he will not betray them
		- CLAYMONT uses his ability to hold ETHEREAL CHAINS to free NADDIN
		- SKITTER captures him in the CREEL intended for EDIN

* **CH CH CH HA HA HA**
	+ They decide to lock STOK in one of the cells with a body
	+ As the group then makes to leave the prison, they spot a foreboding figure in the hallway
		- Standing around 7ft tall is a large man in dark stained winter clothing
		- His face is concealed by a CHWINGA-like mask with eyeholes stabbed out
		- In his hand is a blood encrusted machete-like longsword
	+ GROVER, terrified, suddenly recalls that person might be a local legend, SONJAY
		- One of VONKI’s ghost stories around the fire spoke of him
		- Said to be a dumb mongrel that lived in the LONELYWOOD with his mother, BANIYA, who was rumored to be a HAG
		- When BANIYA suspected fishermen from town of killing SONJAY over fishing territory, she killed them
		- She was captured and burned alive cursing, the town with her last words
