She is like no other monster the party had fought before, beautiful, powerful and cunning!
They had the fight of their lives ahead of themselves.
As they rushed the peak of the clock tower Xanesha was waiting for them, with false life and spider climb already cast and activated she fired three arrows at Charles as he climbed the stairs onto the outside of the tower, and with her movement began slithering on the outside of the tower, the party was surprised at how well she had prepared herself.
Between fireballs, counter spells and staying at long range as much as possible she had reduced the group to all below half hit points and they began to doubt themselves of the outcome of this engagement. A well placed hold person spell ended the spider climb which put her at a disadvantage on a lucky attack roll, she had to flee to survive this confrontation, she misty stepped down the stairs and began the run down 200 feet of stairs, but she began taking too much damage and jumped of the tower to feather fall the last 25 feet to freedom to the groups dis pair, that was three villains to escape them.
This was found in the nest of this Abomination
They has more clues when a ledger was found with plans to kill the local lord-mayor Grobaras himself.
The clues
- they are trying to focus on greedy people
- it is tied to the Sihedron symbol
- someone has different way of marking greed on people
- Xanesha has a sister in a village name turtleback Ferry
- the fort by or near the village may have already fallen? (fort Rannick)
- a death plot of the mayor is in the works
Once the Mayor learned of this he fainted and upon awakening begged the group to go to Turtleback Ferry on his behalf and find these culprits and bring justice to them. They would be handsomely compensated for the effort, they agreed.
