The Green Regent - The Avatar of Life


Avatar of Life

"Despite war, chaos, and hate, life endures, and you will ensure that it never falters.

You are the incarnation of a god, mortal and immortal beings united in the same flesh. You exist for the purpose of battling your true godly self ’s foes in the mortal world, of providing inspiration and hope to all who worship your divine being, and just possibly to learn a few things about what it means to walk in the world you helped to shape at the dawn of time. At the same time, you are also the mortal persona you have been throughout your current life, and you are destined to become part of the god you have served so well.

Avatars represent many different aspects of the gods, but you specifically embody the vital principle, the animating spirit of your deity. All life is sacred to you, and you are its divine protector. Your time as an adventurer has taught you how precarious life can be, whether it is the life of a butterfly struggling to escape its cocoon or a civilization living on the edge of lands inhabited by orcs and goblins. You hate taking life, but you recognize that it is the nature of the world that you must sometimes kill or be killed.

Immortality
As an avatar of life, you might be blessed with incredible longevity. Your calling could draw you to retire to a monastery or a temple to live in obscurity, protecting a small community from harm. You might be fated to heal some great sickness in the world, battling a magical plague or putting an end to some corruption or mockery of life that threatens the natural order. Or you might be compelled to venture across the planes, bringing an example of hope and healing wherever you go.
Divine Reunion: After you have completed your Destiny Quest and lived out the years appointed to you, you are called back to your true self. Lying down in a fair green meadow or forest clearing, you allow your body to crumble into dust, nourishing flowering vines and creepers. Your soul returns to your divine self, recalling the awesome power and understanding that comes with godhood. But some part of your mortal being still survives, since your memories, your cares, and your journeys are now your deity’s too.

AVATAR OF LIFE FEATURES

Gorath, very briefly a Duke of Hell
Maxtorious, Godslayer Champion of Tiamat




While Paelias & Dunstan assist Liana Arunsen and High Priestess Amathea in dealing the mortal Ashmadai cultists in Waterdeep, Lirael Jareth Dhaunayane & the Green Regent Halvath Cormarrin enter Hell to defeat the Evil at source...

They meet a Dragonborn Godslayer sent by Tiamat and a Treachery Demon sent by Graz'zt to close the rift likewise, and despite the Treachery Demon's frequent treachery are able to cross the Fields of Fire, reach Gorath's lair, and defeat both him and two Balors sent by Orcus. As the rift closes the heroes flee just before the lair/temple of Asmodeus explodes, burying the last Balor - which then also explodes.

The group returns to Hallomak's portal and home.

Session 84 23-24/8/1484 Stonefang Destroyed, Shar Captured

The heroes enter the Pit of Doom, where Stonefang is making short work of the Shadowed Chain Dwarves. In the fighting Serka and 8 other Shadowed Chain dwarves are killed, but Jareth overwhelms Stonefang, who recognises him as the Invincible Vanguard before being destroyed. Brikos Stoneshoulder comes through the portal and returns the group to Hallomakk's tower portal room in Waterdeep, where Hallomak is holding against an attempt by the Ashmadai Diabolists, allied with Thay, to open a Gate to the Nine Hells. He needs the heroes to enter Hell and defeat Gorath, Pit Fiend leader of the Ashmadai.

The group take a jacuzzi break and rest, while Brikos brings the Green Regent from the Fiery Spire, he restores Serka to life and she proposes to Dunstan - he accepts. They spend quality time together in Hallomak's Jacuzzi. Hallomak realises that Shar, Goddess of Night, has been captured by Szass Tamm, Archlich of Thay, using Tharkorsil's Seat. It's all going to kick off now...

Shar Goddess of Shadow has been captured by Szass Tamm and Orcus, bound in the artifact Tharkorsil's Seat. This gives them control of the Shadow Weave, the source of power for the Shadovar of Netheril, and a lot of control over most of the Shadowfell, except for the Gray Vale and High Forest around Karse due to the presence of Karsus the Failed God.

Then it is time to enter Hell...
