After being reached out to by an elven woman named Illaria to perform at her tavern a few lovely adventurers graciously responded to my request for an audience.
Upon arrival it appeared that she didn’t just need my fabulous musical, dance and comedy roasting skills but also a little bit of protection for a VIP attending the event too... why does nobody hire me just for my performing gifts...
With the help of my talented assistant an adorable little halfing with the prettiest wings we started the show with a bang (literally) and the crowd was enjoying themselves. My interpretive dance didn’t quite go as planned but we managed to rally the crowd to distract from a scuffle with some little goblin lady...
Unfortunately the performance had to be cut short as the client was under threat so I made my way speedily into the room. A mysterious old woman who had bee a guest of the tavern stood with a waaaay too big glaive.
Using some fancy spells I ended up disarming it and the creature revealed itself to be an Oni. A rough battle ensured with Stedd (no longer distracted by the Tabaxi) eventually chopping off its head. Sadly I was knocked out by a powerful ice spell but that is when things started to get interesting...
Being the cautious type I had never been on deaths door before. Does everyone become aware of being chained up and get cut free by a mysterious person? Cause that doesn’t seem common... but maybe I’ll see them again
When I got brought back up I managed to revive the remaining party members and we escorted the VIP to a safe house.
This whole ordeal certainly raised more questions than answers... Who would hire an Oni? Why would the VIP be a target of such a dangerous creature? How did we manage to kill it? Who was the mysterious person who freed me from the chains when I was dying? And is the VIP safe in Illaria’s safe house?
