Cat's Paw Ring

My wife was looking at rings on etsy's website last night and this ring caught my eye. It just looked like it should be a magic item. I fiddled around with a couple different ideas but this is what I came up with.  I hope you all like it and maybe it can find its way into some of your own campaigns.

This silver ring looks like a cat climbing from one tree branch to another. When worn, it grants the bearer Low-Light Vision and a +2 circumstance bonus to Climb and Balance checks. Additionally, all falls are treated as if they were 60' shorter and the wearer always lands on his feet.


Market Value: 3400gp
Cost to Create: 4 days/136 Xp/1700 gp Prerequisites: Caster Level 12, Forge Ring, Low-Light Vision, Cat's Grace, Feather Fall

  07 Newkolt 349 AC Note: The Temple of Kiri-Jolith is based on "The Ghost Blade" from the 3rd edition Dragonlance Campaign Setting Sourcebook, modified for level and to fit the plot of our current campaign. AT THE ABANDONED TEMPLE OF KIRI-JOLITH Grotto is surprised to see such a well preserved body. "Looks a lot like the elf in the murals" Grotto thinks. "Surely he could not have been in this temple for this long and be so well preserved!" Grotto thinks the elf is in some sort of suspended animation. He examined the elf with his knowledge of healing to see if he can find any signs of life. After confirming that the elf is indeed dead, Grotto says a prayer to Hanseath to the fallen warrior. He then searches the body for anything of value. EN ROUTE TO THE DRAGON ISLES "How are you holding up Lady Agnes? Do you require a break?" He speaks in a caring yet worried voice. "I will be good for several more hours, My Knight. I hope to be in P...

Silvanost - Grotto is Nearly Through the Temple, How to Kill a Dragon, and a Job Offer

  07 Newkolt 349 AC Note: The Temple of Kiri-Jolith is based on "The Ghost Blade" from the 3rd edition Dragonlance Campaign Setting Sourcebook, modified for level and to fit the plot of our current campaign. AT THE ABANDONED TEMPLE OF KIRI-JOLITH Grotto once again marvels at the murals as he walks past them. A slight tinge of guilt flows through him. "I am taking these items so they don't fall into enemies' hands!" The dwarf tries to convince himself, "I am not a grave robber!" Grotto then descends the new found passage. He looks around the room and into the water for any hidden traps. Satisfied that he gave it his best once over, he wades into the water. The water is nearly chest deep on the squat dwarf! "Any deeper and I'll have to swim for it," thinks the now amphibious dwarf. Now that he is closer to the altar, he searches much more carefully. "If this temple is mirrored, then maybe there is a place for the horn from the t...

Grotto and the Temple, Arthur & Agnes in Sithelnost, Scrying the Dragon, the Griffon Rider

  07 Newkolt 349 AC Note: The Temple of Kiri-Jolith is based on "The Ghost Blade" from the 3rd edition Dragonlance Campaign Setting Sourcebook, modified for level and to fit the plot of our current campaign. AT THE ABANDONED TEMPLE OF KIRI-JOLITH Grotto realizes the fallen elf is probably a great warrior from the murals. He again prays to Hanseath for the soul of the fallen elf. He lays his hand upon the breastplate of the elf and says,  "Great warrior, how I wish you were here with us. Your lands are under attack by a treacherous former ally. The murals tell the tales of your greatness. A warrior of your standing would be of great use to lead his people. Forgive me for taking your belongings. I hope your artifacts will rally a fighting spirit within your kin. You have my word that these items will be kept safe and out of the hands of the enemy."  With that said, Grotto respectfully begins to take the plate, helm, and shield. Lastly he picks up the sword. "Su...

Cedron and Raven - Arrival at the Sugar Plum Lodge

Image
08 Newkolt 349 AC After Cedron tells Raven what he knows about Lord Hamish, the Sugar Plum Faerie rises, "If what this 'Hamish' says is true, I can't waste any time. Our friends must be retrieved. I will go into Faerie, track them down, and return as quickly as possible." “I will go with you.” Cedron says to Raven. “As lovely as the ambience of this warehouse may be, I need to stretch my legs. Besides these faerie folk seem to appreciate a good ballad.” Raven places a hand on Cedron’s shoulder. "Cedron, thank you for coming withnl me. My place is on the battlefield, I have no talent for politics or the scheming of fey. So, the sooner we leave, the better. There is no telling what Ellessandra is doing to our companions even as we speak." "Place your hand upon my shoulder. Do not let go." Raven closes his eyes and concentrates, a sour pit already forming in his stomach as he thinks about where he must go. There feels a sudden lurch and then t...

Beldam (Other Mother from Coraline)

Image
I watched the movie “ Coraline ” for the first time this weekend.   Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen snippets of the film here and there over the years and I recognized the character when the movie started but I have never sat down and Watched the movie (or read the book).   By the time the show was over, I have to admit that I was fascinated by the entire thing.   The animation and pacing were incredibly well done and the main antagonist was delightfully wicked.   This is who I want to focus on today – Beldam, a.k.a. the Other Mother.   Some viewers may think that she was some sort of demon, offering children their heart’s desire in exchange for their souls, much like a crossroads demon but I feel like she more closely resembles a faerie, a member of the Unseelie Court who is allowed a great deal of independence in her operations.   I also think that since the protagonist, Coraline, was just a child that Beldam wouldn’t necessarily have been overly power...

Silvanost War Council

07 Newkolt 349 AC Note: The Temple of Kiri-Jolith is based on "The Ghost Blade" from the 3rd edition Dragonlance Campaign Setting Sourcebook, modified for level and to fit the plot of our current campaign. AT THE ABANDONED TEMPLE OF KIRI-JOLITH Grotto searches for clues in the kindling. "A map, a key, something to let me know the way to go." Grotto then looks around the room to see if he can find a way to move forward. He begins tapping the walls, listening for the faint echo that would tell him the passage continues. The dwarf's fingers trace along the tiles of the mosaic and the elven warrior at its center. Then, he finds it. A "crack" inside of a larger tile that is too perfectly geometric to be damage due to age. Several similar buttons radiate outward from the first. He shrugs, spreads his fingers and pushes them all in at once. With an audible "CLICK" the entire wall swings back about two inches like a giant door. Grotto readies hi...
