Happenings
| § | Details |
|---|---|
| 013 | #MerchantPrinces After the undead attack on Port Nyanzaru, the party and Soshen O'tamu return to Wakanga O'tamu's villa. They meet with Wakanga and Syndra Silvane. Wakanga is furious and believes his son was targeted by forces within the city. The party learns that Soshen's guard posting was changed last minute to be outside the city gates during the attack. Wakanga believes it could be retribution over bringing the evidence of Kwayothe's treachery to Goldenthrone. |
| 013 | #RedWizards The party receives a letter from Jessamine, who states that the Red Wizards have been "driven out" of Port Nyanzaru. Megamen announces she is separating from the party to chase the Red Wizards into the jungle. |
| 012 | Safely inside the city gates, Volothamp Geddarm awakens and thanks the party. In exchange for saving his life, Volo gave Vivi a signed copy of "Volo’s Guide to Monsters." Volo made the party promise not to reveal that he was saved and to support his image and that he fought valiantly alongside them to defend Port Nyanzaru. |
| 008 | #TakeDownKwayothe #FlamingFist #PiratesOfChult #MerchantPrinces Megamen finds a map of Jahaka Anchorage and documents showing correspondence with Liara Portyr, the Flaming Fist in charge of Fort Beluarian. These missives describe in detail Kwayothe’s coordination with both the Flaming Fist and the pirates to undermine Port Nyanzaru and the other Merchant Princes. |
| 006 | #TakeDownKwayothe #DeathCurse #MerchantPrinces Jessamine meets the party. They notice she is afflicted by the Death Curse. She provides some political context, stating that Port Nyanzaru's independence was recent and there are elements within the city trying to undermine that. She asks the party to find evidence that Kwayothe is working with the Flaming Fist to re-exert colonial control of the city. In exchange, she offers resources and favor for their investigation. |
| 006 | #HelpingZitembe #StopTheDeathCurse The party approaches Grandfather Zitembe. They agree to help him drive off the Red Wizards from Port Nyanzaru. In exchange, he will divine the location of the Soulmonger for them. |
| 005 | The party explored Port Nyanzaru, checking out the Grand Souk and the Red Bazaar. Vivi stole a +1 boomerang dagger. |
| 004 | The party arrived on the docks of Port Nyanzaru. They came upon two provincial Chultans from deep within the jungle—a lizardfolk named Griselka Swampstrider and an albino dwarf named Ladmon—who were confused by the concept of customs agents. The party got roped into an altercation between the newcomers and the agents and the six of them slipped away after they charmed the customs officer to leave them alone. |
| 004 | #ExecutionersRun Executioner’s Run is a gauntlet of puzzles, traps, and monsters that is a popular way to execute criminals in Port Nyanzaru. Prisoners who make it through the gauntlet are absolved of their crimes and re-integrated into society. It is a well-attended blood sport event for the locals and even some of the Merchant Princes. |
| 003 | #GetToChult At last the party made it to the bustling Chultan city of Port Nyanzaru! Satisfied with his successful navigation to Chult, Moorvark slid into the ocean as the rest of the crew disembarked. |
| 002 | #GetToChult #Harpers #MerchantPrinces Upon arriving at her manor, Syndra Silvane gave the party a brief primer on what to expect in the jungles of Chult as well as a valuable map of the region. She gave them an additional potion of healing and sent them by boat - asking the party to seek out Wakanga O'tamu, one of the powerful Merchant Princes in Port Nyanzaru and ally to the Harpers. |
