Slowly the group began to advance across the glade towards the small cabin. Every fetish in the trees were marked by the Magical Detection of Harley and Lucian. Some fetishes were merely 4-6 inches others were the size of Breezy. There was nothing that occurred by their presence, however. The squishing footsteps of the group marked their advance...and soon they stood before the cabin. Flagstones were set on the immediate approach and a set of steps lead up to the doorway as the cabin stood on stout poles driven into the swampy ground keeping the cabin about 3 feet above the wet ground. The group assembled on the southern side of the cabin. They paused to confer on what to do. Toryn remarks that Fetishes were used by Hags and Witches to warn people away and could be tied to fear effects or possible to be scried through or provide guardians for....with so many of them in the glade there could be multiple reasons for them. Satoru recalled what he knew of Hags remarking they lurk on the outside of civilization and use their occult or primal powers to deceive and prey upon others, manipulating and corrupting them. Some say Hags are twisted Fey others that they are giantkin who have become corrupted by fiendish sources. Hags sometimes gather in groups called covens and lean toward learning and practicing Witchcraft. A Coven has the power to craft a special magic item used for divination magic called a Hags Eye. They at times mate with a human and their offspring is called a Changeling and they grow up among human settlements who have the potential to become hags themselves. Hags are foul creatures who appear as wizened old women but have little in common with the humanoids they terrorize. Thy are hateful entities whose greatest joy is the corruption and ultimate destruction of anything good or virtuous. There are numerous types of hags, each with unique powers to spread pain and suffering.
((ooc: Ive switched maps on roll20 to Ulizmilla's cabin. Everyone is on the edge of the map. Its a rather small one, but will do for our purposes. You may move your character to anwhere within the yellow borders for your first post regarding this map. Ive marked where Harley and Lucian are picking up magical emanations. at first level detect magic sends a radar like pulse out and mark magical spots. Im excluding players and their magic from it, as that is something you can do. I will give until Sunday evening for everyone to post and then advance the round based on what folks do and say. It is ok to say you want to move up and open the door or whatever else you wish. Just remember noone can go beyond the yellow markings yet. For our purposes you are advancing into the area and at the end of a round you will be where you place your characters. ))
