**Adrian Cotour** is a semi-famous Tabaxi explorer who appears in the *Scrolls of Not'Chek*.

## Description

### Appearance

Cotour is a Tabaxi with golden fur and black stripes who wears dress pants and a button up shirt with a jacket. He is particularly noted to posses male genitalia.

## History

### Search for a Fable

Cotour's call for adventurers is met by Schmeg, Mataal Ika, Brewbad Stormfinger, and Anaalius Penetratius. The Tabaxi reveals to them the existence of powerful fables in Glies that contain entire worlds, which he hopes to obtain and display in a museum for profit. He assigns the party to travel to a monastery in the cliffs of the mountains of the Titan's Eye where one such fable may be found, promising them each a bounty of "five hundred golden pieces of gold" upon its delivery to his manor. To ensure the party is true to their word, Cotour assigns his assistant, Scrya ‘Scribbles’ Bleu, to travel alongside them. After supplying them with provisions and kites, the party departs for the monastery.

### Visions of the Past

Inside the fable of Not'Chek, Anaalius sees a Tabaxi scout greatly resembling Cotour in his vision caused by boofing a green crystal. When the samurai describes his vision to the party, Schmeg accuses Scribbles of hiding Cotour's secrets from them and Anaalius suggests that Cotour was a traitor to the party in his vision. Scribbles retorts their accusations, recalling that Cotour has only completed a few expeditions and that the ruins they explored, newly-built in Anaalius's visions, are now incredibly old. Moreover, Anaalius concludes that Cotour may be descended from the Tabaxi in his vision; Scribbles senses that Cotour's interest in the scroll of Not'Chek may not be merely academic in nature, and Brewbad suggests Cotour is working with the creatures of the fable.

### Death

When the party returns to Cotour's manor, they find the decaying corpses of Grak Properpants and Cotour, whose head has exploded. When Brewbad inspects the Tabaxi's body, he notices that his fur is matted and weirdly shaven. Using his sight beyond sight, Mataal Ika discovers that Cotour was an eyeless one. Moreover, the Tabaxi's true intention in sending the party to retrieve the scroll of Not'Chek was to release the eyeless ones trapped inside it.

Rumor has it that the song was once played on a moon-shaped island in the West. Lucine and Chei later meet River Styx who is brought into the tavern by Bomba.

While sleeping, River Styx, Mei, Lucine Lavendel, Nia Ebonheart, and Tomoe have a shared nightmare where they see death and destruction in the city. After waking they rush downstairs to check on Chei and find him still in the bar recovering from the night drinking. They check on him and find out he is fine. Later while the madness is spreading throughout the village Chei finds his way to Lucine and the party while they are fighting off hate filled villagers. When they meet up Lucine is suddenly filled with a surge of rage and hate as she remembers every little annoyance and slight. Eldritch energy dances on Lucine’s hands as she sees Captain Chei but is able to shake the feeling off and regain her sanity. For a moment there seems to be a lull in the combat, as the attention of the raging villagers seems to be focused elsewhere. The party gathers and explains the dream to Chei and the others. Amongst the chaos, Mei happens to see Naus Gaki rush into a house and chase after him. He tells them to follow him if they want to know what is happening and sprints out the back door, the party following close behind.

Astaroth

art by Guterrez

**Astaroth** (Ass-Star-roth) is the Patron God of Dwarves, Strength, and Earth from the Blue Pantheon.

## Description

The dwarves of old speak of the Underworld, a place of caverns that have their own sky and even their own sun. This dark sun is believed to be the throne in which the maker of the dwarves sits. Astaroth is a being that upholds strength, conviction, and the earth. He believes the weak should die and the strong should live — only fools believe otherwise. Although the dwarves of Verum have left behind his open worship in the favor of more amenable deities, depictions of Astaroth can be found in the deepest places of Krazax. There is rumored to be a great, deep gate that bars the way to the Underworld, where Astaroth waits to rise again to punish his children.

## Background

The god Astaroth, in a rare moment of compassion and with assistance from Cassius, released the Minotaurs from the terrors of the wizard Tyre.

## Summary

The party fights the mirror wraith, but a surprising turn of event alter the course of the fight as Rivitah's blood carried the Wild Magic with him, and as he uses magic to throw a rock towards the wraith, the magic rips open the thin veil between the mirror realm and reality, summoning an etheric rift that caved in the place they're fighting in. Unfortunately, the place they're in is below a canal district, and water started pouring in, threatening to drown Neve and Seren who were downed by the initial summoning of the etheric rift.

Turr Khei and Madd Morc carried Seren and Neve respectively through the swirling water, with Rivitah swimming on his own, and Madd Morc shows an unprecedented feat of strength as he successfully saved Neve before she drowns and helped out Turr Khei and Seren out.

Babylon

Art by John Silva

**Babylon** (Baa-bii-lon) is the God of Oaths, Promises, Seduction and Tyranny from the Black Pantheon.

## Description

### Binders

Promises, obligations, and guilt — the building blocks of society and the source of many powers. What most do not know is that there is a single deity, a being whose age is truly unknowable, in which all oaths are bound. All of them — from the child's promise to their parents to mind, to the drunkard's attested boasts, to the paladin's holy vow — are regulated by a being known as Babylon. He has many names: The Man in Black, The First Devil, The Dark Prince. Many forms does he take, many masks he wears. But no matter what, they all come back to a single fact: The devil always gets his due.

## History

Babylon has appeared in many campaigns, such as *Death and Debts*, *Broken Bonds*, *Gambler's Delight*, *Shattered Crowns*, and many others.

### Kiliwen Joy's Interactions

After defeating the akuma Koka and Yoka, Kiliwen finds a strange horn. As she does so, she communes with Babylon who offers her power in exchange for assisting him in spreading his power onto Glies. She agrees to his amusement. Later on her journey, while in a strange dungeon related to the Mists of Glies she decides to try and contact Babylon, but she only feels a slight feeling of annoyance. Feeling frustrated, she cuts a mist creature which was being experimented on and uses its blood to make an unholy ritual circle. This time, darkness engulfs all around her as Babylon arrives. Kiliwen starts to ramble about how unnatural all the siphoning of life energy happening in the other room is, but then Babylon lifts her up and starts choking her, stating that she is wasting his time. He then explains further that she should look more carefully at her compatriots, as one of them has a strong symbol of his, referring to Vasily’s left arm. He tells her that Otikata and the Pale Emperor have kept their oaths well. Before he disappears, Babylon warns Kiliwen not to summon him again, unless it is the proper time and with a good reason.

## Summary

The first thing the group (minus Rivitah) does to start is have a coffin built to protect Turr Khei as he moves during the daytime. They then stop by the blacksmith in order to gain stronger armor, a better crowbar, as well as to wash Turr Khei, who went through a bad spell throughout the vampire transformation. Afterward, the group heads back for a night of sleep.

After another night of nightmares, Rivitah awakens to a daemon asking how it may serve him. He awakens a second time, finding his hand has now become a fleshy-skull. Rivitah awakens everyone, then has Madd Morc chop off the skull. However, it simply regrows. After talking, and after Turr Khei confirms her is not yet “spicy bad,” decides to live with him for now. Naming the new familiar Burden, Rivitah continues to question what is wrong with his life. At the same time, Seren tries out her new candelabra, summoning the wolf of winter, who she proceeds to pet.

Going down to the bar, the group are met with new patrons; the first, Tommy Two-Hands. Then, Gross Derick and Letty. The TOPS quickly catch up on what the four have been doing. Then, when Seren introduces herself, Gross Derick quickly asks to commune with her, even willing to wash himself in order to do so. Letty, himself wanting to talk to girls, has Neve step on him. Throughout this, Rivitah wants to stab his companions.

The group eventually leaves to meet with The Half-Father. He is about to give them information on the next mission, when a group of soldiers working for the White Widow break in, start killing the guards, and tries to assassinate the Half-Father. Mr. Knuckle’s reveals his crossbows, Lucille and Bobby, which he uses to support the team. Despite their attempts, the assassin’s leader manages to escape.

The Half-Father thanks them, but quickly gets down to business. He sends the group to the Harbor, where they are to track down the White Widow’s prized ship. However, considering how handily they held off the attack, he gives them the rest of the day to eat, drink, and be merry.

Art by @LoocahMadooplah

## Stats

**Aizu Toko** was a Sake Soaked Samurai who was serving as a bandit in a fortress near Okogi village before being captured by adventurers.

## Description

Aizu Toko was originally one of the unnamed samurai bandits seen serving under Wu Tong at a fortress near Okogi village. His name was revealed after he was captured by a group of adventurers.

### Appearance

Aizu Toko appears to be human male wearing samurai armor.

## History

### Bandit Fortress

An adventurer party consisting of Hex, Sunder, Ryn Lostone, Tori Hayden, and Haruko approached the bandit fortress near Okogi village. As one of the Sake Soaked Samurai patrols near by the group, Haruko sneaks up to him and grapples him. The party proceeds to knock him unconsciously but make some noise in the process attracting the attention of the others. While he is unconscious they skirmish with his allies before Hex takes his form to fool them into thinking an army is coming. This allows the group to retreat into the forest taking him with them.

Aizu later wakes up in the forest tied up and surrounded by the adventurers who wish to interrogate him. Haruko questions how he ended up with the bandits and what their end goal is. He explains to Haruko how he was cut off from his clan and his posting no longer supported him and that a hungry belly can make a man do anything. He explains how him and most of the others samurai are from the Shuǐ Clan. He was cutoff by the mists and suck in the western part of Glies forcing him into banditry. He claims he could not find work as a mediocre warrior and that he has maintained his honor by not killing anyone. Despite this he looks guilty having witnessed others do so. When asked about the Nightwolf, it is mentioned that he fought their boss but ending up losing and being captured. He explains how Wu Tong has made contact with the Eclipse and is working with one of their agents.

The adventures eventually let him go and it is implied he will go and search for a Yokai to commit seppuku with. Though it is unknown if he went through with it.

## Trivia

* Aizu Toko was originally a Sake Soaked Samurai until he was captured and interrogated in *Pride of the Nightwolf*. That is why he shares their token art.

***Death and Debts* Episode 8** was streamed on Arcadum's Twitch channel on September 29, 2020, and premiered on Arcadum's YouTube channel on October 28, 2020.

## Summary

            The group decide to take the corpse to Babylon. Vaeri calls for “Dad,” summoning him back. He, in turn, promises to grant each of them a reward. Vaeri excitedly goes first, while Revlis tries to keep Umi and her objections quiet. Vaeri asks for a strong weapon, which Babylon answers by given her the Claws of Veseven, clawed gauntlets that once belonged to the head of the House Talisbane. This sends Vaeri into an excited frenzy.

           Madeleine steps forward next, looking uncomfortable dealing with Babylon. She asks for money she can give to the orphanage where she grew up. Babylon asks her whether she is asking for the money to go to the orphans, or whether she wanted the glory of giving the money to the orphanage, which gives her pause. Babylon, impatient, reads her mind, learning her ambitions, fears, and weaknesses.

           Next he turns to Zara, who denies him outright. Turning to Umi, she tries to be brave, stepping forward to tell him off, but breaking down crying before she can. She tries to ask for the resurrection of the samurai, but is so flustered she cannot word the request properly. Babylon reads her mind, but it freaks her out to the point he cannot find anything coherent enough to use, so he just moves on.

           Revlis steps forward next, asking for more power. Babylon warns her of potential consequences she would face from such power. Revlis, looking down at Dio, pets him gently, but asks for the power anyway. Babylon grasps her heart, breaking her bond to the Laughing Mad and bonding her to him. Dio fades away and Revlis is transformed partially into a succubus. Revlis, now able to fly, carries Vaeri around the room, the two rivals finally bonding due to their shared respect to Babylon.

           Last is Terryn. Terryn just asks for some pleasure. Babylon promises to visit her the next time she dreams. Then, taking the samurai’s soul, leaves. The group quickly realize the gravity of what they have done. Umi cries in the corner at the thought of the condemned soul, which Madeleine and Zara comfort her. Revlis, Vaeri, and Terryn, however, are either excited at their gifts or the regular nonchalant. They ask Umi what is truly wrong with dealing with Babylon what they did. Umi, conflicted, preys to her goddess. Her “mommy,” Kaheeli, tells Umi to keep heart, and try to be a light of hope to guide her friends.

           Returning back to the Northern portion of the sewers, the group realize how tired they are and rest an hour to recuperate. Madeleine scouts ahead for traps, humming her theme song along the way. She finds a backroom, where a man is cleansing a magic circle. The group moves to confront the man just as he finishes his ritual, leaving only a black chalice. He reveals himself as leader of the Acolytes, and moves to end the group.

#### Purification of Whitefury

The group eventually heads back to Greenbramble and meet with Bright-Eyes again to tell him of the fate of the tree and the purifying of Whitefury. The Village Chief explains that Whitefury has been the protector of Greenbramble for a long time, so he’s glad the creature was saved and can help them again. He also apologizes for his earlier mistrust; the Corruption has put them all on edge. There are also reports on the Eclipse being in the area. Bright-Eyes suspects they have something to do with the disappearance of entire villages in the area. The reports tell of an encampment by a ruin in the bramble wood to the north-east of the village. The bramble wood was once a place where sinister yokai made their home, but Azolon has purged them and the wood became a place of peace. The ask of the party to investigate the ruins, to find out why the Eclipse is interested in it, and to maybe look even deeper into the ruins, as allegedly Azolon himself left some artifacts there.

### Encounter near Okogi

As a group of adventurers comprised of Hex, Sunder, Ryn Lostone, Tori Hayden, Haruko, and their guide Lemondrop travel from Alexandria to Okogi they stumble upon some Corrupted Gaki. The ones they encounter are not full Akuma yet but partial Akuma as the corruption had not fully enveloped the Gaki yet. Sunder charges in to fight them but misses one with a slash of his sword. Haruko rushes in to assist Sunder and rabbit kicks one of the Gaki in the face causing it to dent in and pop back out unnaturally. Another nearby Gaki tries to claw at Haruko but he is able to dodge. Another attacks Sunder clawing at his legs.

As the battle continues a Gaki attempts to hurl its black tar puke at Hex but he dodges it. The fourth does the same to Ryn which hits and blinds him. Tori rushes over and removes it from Ryn restoring his sight. Ryn retaliates by putting one of the Gaki to sleep. Hex proceeds to greatly wound one of the Gaki with an Eldritch Blast causing it to puke up the contents of its stomach on the ground. Haruko slashes and punches at another also greatly wounding it. One of the creature strikes again at Sunder slashing him slightly. Ryn takes first blood by killing one of the Gaki with his mace. Hex rushes forward and kills a second with another Eldrich Blast.

With only two remaining, Haruko launches a unarmed strike at one leaving a rabbit paw print on its face. It tries to strike back but misses both claw attacks. Tori strikes it with her longbow and Ryn finishes it off with some Scared Flame. The final sleeping Gaki is then dealt with by the party.

### YouTube VOD

***Beyond the Veil* Episode 12** was streamed on Arcadum's Twitch channel on October 17, 2018, and premiered on Arcadum's YouTube channel on February 16, 2019.

## Summary

After their fight with the undead pirates, the party retrieved the Red box from the sunken vessel. Before bringing it back to Lord Havendark, they decide to head back to the inn *The Rotten Maw* to investigate the crystal they found called the “Eye of Oblivion”.

Back at the inn, they meet Grobthar and Rhinehaus II who are both very grateful to the party for reuniting them once more. Inside the inn, Gregarious learns from Captain Leroy Lexus that the “Eye of Oblivion” is a portal crystal missing its rune of passage. It seems to have been used as a portal stone to access a location.

Grombus, on his side of the inn, gets his afflicted arm inspected by Franz and Hanz. He is told that the cure consists of walking through a stabilizing portal attuned to the place that matches the origin of the affliction. They offer Grombus to try to replicate a stabilizing portal using something that belongs from that place which just so happens to be Oblivion. Outside of the inn, Franz and Hanz proceed to cure the affliction from his arm using the *Eye of Oblivion* but cannot completely remove the darkness inside of him. As a result, Grombus gains access to the power of Abaddon, granting him Armor of Agathys castable once per long rest at the highest spell slot level available for his character level, making it scalable.

The party celebrates the curing of his arm with an arm wrestling competition!

Arm Wrestling Competition

BEST OF 3

This event is followed by a bar brawl between the players, started by a drunk Gregarious cracking Guh-nome skull with his weapon.

Before all heading to bed, Roden Taft, having returned to the inn, is tasked by Grombus to analyze the *Eye of Oblivion* who Roden Taft claims to be a Majitalian Nexus Crystal.

During the night, Omega wakes up in the dream realm. Babylon then appears before her to tell her a very important message. The *Eye of Oblivion*  is a key stone that leads into the realm between his and Oloken'hai's. The god of madness plans to use this realm as a bridge to summon darkness. Her destiny is to face one of Oloken'hai's chosen to protect the crystal.
