Roll Models D&D: Episode 99 – The Cosmic Surgepyre
Explicit content warning
11/24/23 • 98 min
RECAP TIME:
Finding the final location on the ancient map of The drowned city, Zarlumai, our heroes found themselves in a demi plane of ash. There they were chaperoned through a strange mansion by Leralith, the reforged memory of the sorcerer who once created this place, and they discovered the Seal Sanctum was beneath them in a prison called the King’s Hold.
Our heroes delved through the Kings hold, facing reanimated horrors, puzzles and twin obelisks that consumed spells. But through they went. Finally in the Seal Sanctum, Detrius opened the great sealed door, and revealed himself, hidden by a spell like true polymorph: he was Xethir. Nemesis, and herald of the Malignant Domain.
Our heroes fought furiously, Xethir summoned a giant horror from the malignant domain. They fought to kill Xethir before the great sealed door opened fully. To stop him from claiming what lay beyond.
They succeeded, but not without injury and loss. The captain was dead. But as everyone rested and communed with their gods, Ahmaya saw something in the depths of the borrowing beyond the seal... A great glass tower before a nebula of stars.

RECAP TIME:
Our heroes reunited the fragmented parts of the ancient map and delved into the first of the tombs, Yelanriae, along with the pirate crew of the Oddmium Trist.
The voyage was led by Captain Ryse Killid, deathlock of Onru the Labyrinthine, and his only goal was to find a home for his pilgrim god in a secret borrowing that lay beyond a great seal. He was seconded by his First mate, Detrius.
As they approached the final tomb, the map offered a warning “your final sacrifice is in bearing the terrible weight of the truth.”
The tomb was hidden beneath an island that had been hollowed out, a puzzle embedded within it to hide a teleportation stone. That stone led to a demi-plane of ash and mazes, and atop a hill was a mansion. Leralith met our heroes, a reanimated memory of the sorcerer that created this place and the prison below it, the King’s Hold.
Over 40,000 years ago, the Kings Hold was made to entrap Enthor, Ora’s deity, should he be corrupted by the Malignant Domain as he feared. And it had since been repurposed by the Ones Above as a location to hide one of the One Thousand Seals, and to cover up mistakes of the Entanglement’s past.
Our heroes delved through the Kings hold, facing reanimated horrors, puzzles and twin obelisks that consumed spells. But through they went, and in the Seal Sanctum, Detrius opened the great sealed door, and revealed himself, hidden by a spell like true polymorph: Xethir. Nemesis, and herald of the Malignant Domain.

Roll Models D&D: EPISODE 100!
Welcome to the 100th episode of Roll Models D&D!
To all of our listeners - from those who've listened since day 1, to those who have found us more recently, thank you!
Enjoy this slightly chaotic and mildly celebratory 100th episode...
RECAP TIME:
Finding the final location on the ancient map of The drowned city, our heroes found themselves in a demi plane of ash. There they were chaperoned through a strange mansion by Leralith, the reforged memory of the sorcerer who once created this place, and they discovered the Seal Sanctum was beneath them in a prison called the King’s Hold.
Our heroes delved through the Kings hold, facing reanimated horrors and puzzles. But through they went. Finally in the Seal Sanctum, First Mate Detrius opened the great sealed door with the bloodkey and revealed himself as Xethir, hidden by a spell like true polymorph, nemesis and herald of the Malignant Domain.
Although they succeeded in preventing him from him from claiming what lay beyond the great seal, it wasn’t without injury or loss. The captain of the Oddmium Trist was dead.
But beyond the seal, they found a burrowing, a tunnel world that linked two planes, and deep within was a great tower of glass, a legendary surgepyre built to harness a once in a millennia Maelstrom. Next to the tower was a strange hideout carved into the rock where they found more secrets of this place, and claimed a hideout with a teleportation circle all for themselves.
Careful to ensure the place was hidden from Xethir permanently, they collapsed the tunnels of the Kings Hold, and made their escape back to the ship to figure out how to tell the crew that both their captain and first mate were no longer with them...
