Tales Trees Tell: Investigation. With Laedronna Stratholme
Just another day in the Guildhouse. Many members are hanging out in Maeiou’s revitalized Tea Shoppe. Some are training, or attending to other duties around the property. At one point as you are all discussing whatever it is you discuss – maybe the pirates you recently fought, or the rogueish Halfling Mouse who occasionally shows up – perhaps the great artworks of the increasingly renowned Leon Ardo, or the weird metals you have found on some of your adventures, the bug creatures you fought whose body parts are rumoured to be craftable into high quality weapons, or how magic has been getting increasingly….odd/and unstable …
Fizzle Wand Demo
- Oh so good to see you all! I have been putting the data you got to good use. I’ve managed to isolate some of the portal magic behaviours and have learned quite a bit. Busy, busy!
- I’ve managed to recreate conditions, and using a bit of magical science, or (scientific magic haha) have come up with… THIS
- Holds up ornate wand, and a handful of gems set in metal discs, eac h with runic carvings on them.
- Oh yes of course, you don’t know what they are! Come, come, I will show you. Turns to head back into the meeting room
- As you follow he continues right through the room without a pause as he nods to Timmy, C’mon Timmy, time to demonstrate!
- Continues winding path to come out to the back training area/grenspace
I haven’t come up with exact use case for this yet, adnter are som kinks to work out, but knowing you you all come and go and are all over the place all the time, I think you’ll find this useful. - Sends Elias to far end of field with on of the gems
- Uses wandt to create a portal
- Well TImmy? Go, go – shoos him in
- Timmy enters portal and immediately appears in the sky above Elias at the other end of the field, plummeting to the earth for 1d6 damage
It does need some fine tuning and I don’t think you would want to sleep with the gem in your pocket, but what promises??? Huh? Huh?
Explains he is working on more precision, etc
Elias thinks its a great way to supply reinforcements, etc. He has acquired a set of Sending Stones from GooTheema the Wise and will hopefully get more, but the party will always have one.:
You send a short message of twenty-five words or less to a creature with which you are familiar. The creature hears the message in its mind, recognizes you as the sender if it knows you, and can answer in a like manner immediately. 1/dawn
Elias Explains Mission
- Something came in that he didn’t want to put on the board
- Someone has gone missing and there might be something a little worse – the village lives on the edge of a forest that is fey territory
- Kabel’s hill is primarily a waystation for travelers and loading point for grains and goods head to Skar Wyk by river. It also acts as a forward outpost and send riders south when necessary to warn of impending danger.
- The mayor mentioned that there might be something other than grain coming up and down the river but with the problems in the city he can’t spare any guards
- Two birds with one stone
Heading Out
- Shortly after you set out the skies darken as clouds roll in and before long you are making your way in the rain. Occasional lightning flashes and thunder booms short after, letting you know you are close, but not too close to the strikes.
- You trudge along following the track along the river, the trees sometimes very sparse allowing you to see across rolling fields, and sometimes thicker, coming close to you.

Each time a creature targets you with an attack during the spell’s duration, roll a d20 to determine whether the attack instead targets one of your duplicates.
If you have three duplicates, you must roll a 6 or higher to change the attack’s target to a duplicate. With two duplicates, you must roll an 8 or higher. With one duplicate, you must roll an 11 or higher.
A duplicate’s AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier. If an attack hits a duplicate, the duplicate is destroyed. A duplicate can be destroyed only by an attack that hits it. It ignores all other damage and effects. The spell ends when all three duplicates are destroyed.
A creature is unaffected by this spell if it can’t see, if it relies on senses other than sight, such as blindsight, or if it can perceive illusions as false, as with truesight.

The next time you hit a creature with a weapon attack before this spell ends, a writhing mass of thorny vines appears at the point of impact, and the target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be restrained by the magical vines until the spell ends. A Large or larger creature has advantage on this saving throw. If the target succeeds on the save, the vines shrivel away.
While restrained by this spell, the target takes 1d6 piercing damage at the start of each of its turns. A creature restrained by the vines or one that can touch the creature can use its action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC. On a success, the target is freed.
At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 1st.

At the start of each of its turns until the spell ends, the target must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 1d6 fire damage. On a successful save, the spells ends. If the target or a creature within 5 feet of it uses an action to put out the flames, or if some other effect douses the flames (such as the target being submerged in water), the spell ends.

The protection grants several benefits. Creatures of those types have disadvantage on attack rolls against the target. The target also can’t be charmed, frightened, or possessed by them. If the target is already charmed, frightened, or possessed by such a creature, the target has advantage on any new saving throw against the relevant effect.
