So my original Kingmaker game is picking back up after a 3 year hiatus. We're going into book 5 which is where we left things off, expect it's 20 years later and our heroes have aged a bit.
I felt the need to share that one of my players has kept Gregori's head in a jar since book 2 and used to Speak with Dead to ask him taunting questions. That player like the others many of which were coupled off well before the game went on hiatus had a child since they are elves the child is still a toddler and the magical couple enchanted the sh*t out of Gregory's head and jar into a Babysitter.
Uncle Greggy is still under construction and is taking quite a bit of character wealth but they are rich as hell and this is for everyone's amusement.
Thus far:
-Sanctuary spell on anyone holding Uncle Greggy's Jar
-Permanent Speak with dead for anyone holding the Jar
-Skull Sentinel when you put him on his stand, he shouts a warning when unauthorized humanoids enter an ara and he makes a perception.
-He can be commanded to use pretigitation or mend at will, Unseen Servant 3/day
-I'm handwaiving that he is animated and under repose and still sort fo has Gregory's personality including being well aware his existence can be made worse.
We are open to suggestions as to what else to make the former now quite indignant undeadish bard do

Too tired to put the formatting back in...but Uncle Grigy!!
Also, yes, popper is exactly a darkwood version of the child's toy the popcorn popper...cause I can!
Hey..when the AP gives you an obnoxious bard...
Make something useful from his terrible but completely well earned fate!
Oh, and yes, that 20 ft. of movement is the least dignified form possible, rolling... :)
