When freed, Sir Uravulon Calcidius will seek the party and exact his revenge. There are a few steps he will take:
First, he will work to secure a suitable spellbook (immediate or 1d6 sessions, depending on character actions)
Then, he will begin asking questions to find the characters.
At the start of each session:
- The unluckiest surviving character makes a Luck check. Failure means Sir Uravulon Calcidius has found them. He will strike in the next session.
- The luckiest surviving character makes a Luck check. Success means they learn that someone has been asking questions about their whereabouts.
- The survivors are Albert, Dave; Ilvora, Stemp; Badger’s Bane, Yeasty; Ungo the Beggar, Ahm-mal the Witness; Quenlynn, Ralph; Obexa the Agent, Spike
While asking around for the characters, he will begin hiring assistance. The players may learn ahead of time that someone is hiring a band if they themselves are hiring characters.
