Summary of the first session
Primarchs of Chrysalis – The Crystal Prophet
Session 1 – Revived Power
“Everything is dark, you hear a high pitched ringing voice, like if an explosion had detonated next to you”
The players open their eyes to see the City of Arthuria in ruins, dust all around them, a naked woman with blue skin, crystals coming out of her head, with a large Prophet mark on her chest covering up most of her body beckons them to help her stop the monster destroying the city.
Ja’Dasha the lionfolk, Renthaj the half-efreeti, and Palak the half-banshee, noticing they have Prophet marks of their own agree to help out this mysterious crystal woman.
Once out of the huge dust cloud the party notices a colossal turtle, with spikes on its carapace, with the head of a lion. The crystal woman tells them to climb on the creature and find a way in, she will jump in front of it and hold it off so they can climb and get in.
The players climb the creature with little effort and find that one of the spikes on its carapace can be opened revealing a ladder going inside.
Palak, having tinkered with clockwork recognizes the machinery and noises inside the creature, gargantuan gears are making this creature move.
Once inside the creature the players notice a door at the end of a catwalk, they open it, and inside they see a Magistone installed on a pedestal, with a strange device using the power of the Magistone, probably to power this beast.
A great thud is heard, the creature stumbles, sending Ja’Dasha tumbling towards the pedestal, as she knocks the pedestal, strange gooey floating fluids come pouring out from beneath the pedestal. The strange gooey fluid is black and sparkles as if it had a thousand stars inside. The players quickly recognize this as the Outer Strain.
The Outer Strain covers the Magistone and turns it into a wickedly long, gangly biped with an elongated mouth, like a crocodile’s.
A fight ensues! Palak uses her banshee wail, damaging the creature greatly. The creature retaliated by clawing at Palak, grabbing her, it placed Palak in its mouth and began swallowing her whole.
Renthaj brandished her short swords to cut at the creature, meanwhile Ja’Dasha circled behind the creature, climbed on its back and tried with all her might to pull the creature’s upper jaw to give Palak the chance to escape.
Alas, Palak became greedy and tried to pull the Magistone off of the creature to destroy it in one fell swoop. Palak was unsuccessful and succumbed to the pressure the creature’s throat exerted on her.
Both Ja’Dasha and Renthaj saw how Palak’s legs went limp inside the creature’s maw, avoiding a death of a new companion at any cost, Renthaj sliced the creature in twain, thus releasing Palak.
The Magistone fell to the ground, opaque now that all its power was drained.
Once the combat was over the players left the creature and were met with hundreds of people circling the beast, they all cheered and clamored for their new heroes.
The crystal woman approached them and asked them to accompany her to a local in. There the woman presented herself as Minerva Halos, a prophet much like them. But unlike them, Minerva is a prophet of all the Primarchs, not just one.
As confused as the players were to this information, more so was Minerva. It seems Minerva is an ancient Prophet, she told them she’s at least 513 years old. But the players quickly surmised that she must be way older, since she talks of a time where all 20 Primarchs lived in peace. A time that is not even recorded history, since it is not known when 10 of the 20 Primarchs went rogue.
Minerva tells the players that she must leave Arthuria and search for answers and learn about this strange new world.
The players rested, gathered up any supplies that survived the attack from the gigantic creature. The next day the players go towards some local Magistone mines, in hopes of netting some Magistones to make up some traveling funds.
There they see a child, completely white, disappearing and appearing again, the child is in distress, not seeming to notice the players, almost like he was in a painful stupor.
The players ascertained that something must be doing this to the child. Renthaj uses the powers granted to her by Bahamut, the Primarch of the Grave to see that 2 invisible undead creatures where fighting over who would eat the child.
The players were in luck since these floating undead creatures, that had horizontally elongated heads, sported two long wicked claws each, with no legs, just a spine ending in a sharp point, did not noticed the players. Perhaps they were too preoccupied in who would eat the child, perhaps they didn’t know the players could see them.
The players got the surprise attack, as Palak attacked one, the other undead creature started feeding on the boy, by jamming its long claws through the boy’s mouth and deep inside its throat, the players could see how this creature was sucking the blood out of the child through its mouth.
Without a moment to spare Ranthaj attacked the creature that was feeding off the child. She struck true and cut off one of the creature’s arms. The boy fell limp on the ground.
Ja’Dasha who was hiding behind some rocks, quickly ran towards the boy and carried him to safety, as Palak dealt the killing blow with her kopesh on the undead creature she was engaging.
Seeing itself outnumbered the undead creature that lost an arm to Ranthaj flew away.
Ranthaj, using once again the powers granted by the Primarch of the grave was able to stabilize the child.
A few hours later, the players made it back to Arthuria and return the child to the poor mother who missed him and feared the worst.
Later that night the local sheriff’s office deputized all the players and rewarded them with a few pieces of krona.
Thus ending the first session.
