Are there any plans to flesh out the Archduchy of Ravounel, or to include information on the Archduke/Archduchess?

This AP is rich in memorable NPCs, and interactions with them are important to the eventual outcome. I was inspired by Daviot about including the Hellknight Order of the Coil in the AP. So I decided to share some of the NPCs from various sorces outside the AP that I can imagine joining in the story during the course of the AP. The spreadsheet can be found HERE Some of these are definitely rivals or foes, some are simply colorful background characters. Spoiler: These notes are specific to my campaign, my knowledge of my players, and the characters they are running -
Female human (mulatto – half chellish, half mwangi) Ranger Male human (Absalom) Mage Male human (Absalom) Rogue Female half-elf Cleric of Calistria Male human (Garundi) Fighter (Think LL Cool J) From the CN to NG leanings of the group (and repeated expressed hatred for all things Aspis Consortium based) I think they will be leaning toward Pathfinder/Pirates or Pathfinder/Sargava possibly (the ranger girl is already half in love with Jask and they are still on the Shiv -perhaps I played him a little too close to Morgan Freeman...) Adelle Duran – With her description and motivations for adventure, challenges, and living life to its fullest Adelle has great motivation to join up with an expedition into the Mwangi Expanse looking for one of the most legendary cities of ancient Azlant. In my campaign she may join the PCs expedition as a possible love interest and may be used as a replacement character should a PC die and choose to play her. Diamata Sirathini – Will be hired on as a guide for one of the other expeditions. Depending upon how things go she may be recruited to the PC's side and may actually end up as a replacement character should one of the PCs die. Esaye Polbele (Tribal Leader) – She and her tribe will be used to hunt the PCs and their faction. In my game she will have been killed and replaced by one of the serpent folk and is corrupting her tribe. Illian Galanadrian – Is, of course, working exclusively for the Red Mantis as a special agent of their expedition. She may used to target any of the PCs for assassination should the party be having too easy a time of things. Jaren the Jinx – Who refers to himself as “Perilous Jaren”, finds himself as second in command of the Shackles Pirates. He hopes that if they succeed in this endeavor he will shake his reputation as “the Jinx”. Again, here is another possible replacement character should a PC expire. Kiro (Mud Shaman) – Can be used as foil or help. Likely at some point my PCs will go off the rails and get caught up in a side adventure from a random encounter. Kiro will be there to help kick their butts or give them a clue that will light a fire under their butts. Lord Achimair – Sometimes you need a bad ass to run with. He would have heard rumors that filtered to him through Bloodcove and want in on the treasures. Ntanga – Is simply a foil for the party. He will spy for the Ape King if I need, etc. Tpannon – The 'legendary' water lord may be looking for a way to finally "die" releasing the current man from the burden of living up to the legendary name. Yallathoon (tribal champion) – Is working with Esaye Polbele the Tribal Leader (see above) but has not been fully convinced that Esaye is the chosen one. She may just be sword fodder for the PCs or may even end up joining their expedtion if the group plays it right.
Situation - Artifact level heavy mace "Raven's Head" (From Carrion Crown), wielded by a Cleric of Pharasma pastes a Graveknight. The Graveknight fails the save vs the Disruption effect. So, what happens next? According to the rules on disruption, the graveknight is destroyed. According to the graveknight write up they regenerate if the armor is not destroyed (unless very specific spells are cast to cleanse the armor). I am asking because in the next few sessions this could very well happen. I am tempted to have the disruption actually destroy the armor. Any other ideas? Any "official" ruling? Thanks!
With Nautical Campaigns popping up several questions have occurred within our group.
Just wondering if there was an official word. |
