Ellywick clones

Clones (well actually near copies not clones) of Ellywick made by Podric? They seem mildly involved with Aunty too.

Think this lead to (mentioned Session 44):

Recap

The party explored Baba Yaga's home, and found some magical items. They travelled back to Tideholm Keep with Beet's spell, and found it taken over by Margaret at the instruction of Cerondic the Green. We kicked out Margaret and reestablished ourselves in the castle.

Session 44 - 26.2.26

(Planning pre session)
- REVIVE Gilbert DONE
- make new rooms
- investigate the refugees - who got sent from Candlegore Teeth to Aldarfort?
- sell potions
- check what the hell has happened with Podric
- find out the fate of the Fangbangers?
- get Dr Len to help with relationship between Ivy and Rosemary
- follow up on The Loom Weave of Eightfold - especially The Astronomica? Links to Professor Pouch - could ask him?
- Have we been to Zzin'drisk - was this part of the underground stuff we did? NO
- Is the crystal that fell from the sky part of the destroyed city Grezlin Geode? - research that? - something in Session 28 about this - apparently stolen by Ogamock

Ivy tries to revive Gilbert

  • true resurrection might work - need a cleric (Beet put up a banner advertising for a cleric on the castle)
  • she preserves him in a herbal fluid - maintains condition if resurrection takes a long time

Fin checks on Suffer and Goose

Fin sent letters:

  1. To Yessis Fullmoon - she is alive and well, and Madame Diamond is ready to design again
  2. To family - saying they hadn't seemed concerned with her long absence, and they clearly don't care much about her (TORE UP AND DIDN'T SEND)
  3. To family - heard family had a baby, and that she is excited about this news (SENT)

Taubera is a Halfling raised by Dwarves

  • she has made a home in the castle
  • is digging a tunnel behind a secret door

Beet is furnishing the trophy room, which now contains:

Beet will throw a 30th Birthday Feast on the 8th day after our arrival back

Sean: "Rachel is flirting with her wide hipped horse"

Ellywick makes a library in Tideholm Keep

Ellywick goes to a meetup of her group of bards (Law strand?) at The Burnt Root

  • there is newspaper making here?
  • 7 people around table upstairs
  • tall Human, half face burnt, missing half of hair, tall and blond with piercing blue eyes
    • apparently Cliffkeep has stopped importing fruit and veg (Dwarven city) - where Fin's family are (later note - first mention alluding to Rock Fruit)
    • King and Queen there?
  • met Parma Violet, long blue dress, blonde, black eyes, mink gloves

Ellywick manages to resist a charm person spell from Parma Violet.

Ellywick stands to announce herself before naming who she is

  • asks if they've seen any Ellywick clones
  • apparently 58 redheaded Gnomes were killed!! - about a year ago - she described Podric's appearance to see if he's been seen
  • Parma Violet will get records of Gnomes from the archives (across Pendayria)
    • there was no proper law investigation into these deaths
    • apparently these Gnome deaths appeared to be isolated incidents - half in Paulderburg, other half spread across South (eg Aldarfort) (Podric could have been headed to Laamuria - that's where we saw him last over the scrying mirror?)

Ivy asked Lady Shamrock Petulance to stoke the fires because Rosemary was cold

  • had a convo with Rosemary about going to school - she seems keenish, but really wants to go back to the cottage in Athelthorne
  • she demonstrated her magical power

Fin received letter from family

  • invited the party to come visit for Deepforge Night (sort of like Dwarven Christmas)
  • they have found green veins under Cliffkeep - has put them on the map! (OH NO)
  • Finklerod Neverkind "always knew you were a hero"
  • "you are our 11th, the prophecy holds" (damn, something is going on...)

Fin opens a pub in Tideholm Keep - The Lucky Cow

  • an Elf called Fernetta Thatssabush turns up - had come for the cleric job, but ended up taking pub job
  • has green hair and a green apron

Ellywick has set up a Pranking Library as her new room

Fin has Lilypad as a servant???

Fernetta Thatssabush said she needed 500 gold to revive Gilbert - Ivy borrowed money from the party (Ellywick keeping a beady eye on this)

Taubera has built a teahouse in Tideholm Keep
-Luvon the worker there employed by her is a massively flirtatious Elf (and a pimp!)

Fin asked Ellywick to fire Fernetta Thatssabush for her

  • she seems silly and naive

Ivy gains 1 healing potion from her garden
Beet scries Podric

  • an Ellywick clone is walking through snow
  • "silly old man, I hate it when he gets sick"
  • he's inside a tree
  • she calls him Dad?
  • handle of tree looks like a root
  • HE MIGHT BE IN Ellywick'S HOME VILLAGE!!

Beet attempts to scry Baba Yaga - she is not on this plane, so can't see anything (party still might think she's dead??)

Ellywick ask Taubera to gather info on Podric using teahouse- can only find out stuff within 10-50 miles

Trazz’tchar, the Shadowblade (or maybe a person called shadowblade)

  • banished the Ghoulgrey (?) mountain range
  • Frankenstein figure - sewed of lots of people
  • made from the deepest root of the heartwood tree
    • _ (?) leylines - maybe their source/meeting point of them
    • symbolic of magic throughout the world
    • heartwood tree is an elvish theory
    • not a physical tree

Races of PCs:
Beet is a Tiefling (originally Genasi)
Ellywick is a Forest Gnome
Fin is a Mountain Dwarf

Ivy and Ellywick try to sneak up to The Lucky Cow

  • no-one appears to be around
  • paper on the bar says be back soon

Intro to Aleary Mist the teahouse in Tideholm Keep

  • is a barge on the moat

Ivy and Ellywick head to Aleary Mist

  • Luvon - wearing open chest shirt, like a pirate - massively flirtatious, "all chin"
  • he says Fernetta Thatssabush came in earlier to train but has gone to the loo
  • "has a nice firm hand"
  • turns out Fernetta Thatssabush had gone back to the bar after her piss

Ellywick is from Sylroot

Maxillian the Magnificent ?? no idea why I wrote this?? isn't in my notes for the session

Summary

Gilbert is revived, and Fin gets an employee for her new pub The Lucky Cow all in one fell swoop with the cleric Fernetta Thatssabush. Ellywick does some investigation into Podric - he may be in Sylroot, her home village, with an Ellywick clone (posing as her?). Fin writes to family and is invited home to Cliffkeep for Deepforge night next week. Beet is planning her 30th birthday for the end of the week.
