Session 14: Death of an Ahrmsman

The group continues exploring the craftsman’s quarters, and come upon an undead tabaxi general. He sees Ahrm as a sort of dragonborn and threatens the group, calling an undead chimera to his side. Ahrm gets Vojta to form images on the floor with his magic, to communicate that Ahrm’s people actually hate the dragonborn, but the tabaxi is having none of it and a fight breaks out. The tabaxi enlarges himself while the chimera breathes fire. Grombrin scoffs at the flames, but Ahrm is badly burned. Vojta unleashes his newfound power to turn Ahrm into an enormous yeti. Yeti Ahrm fights and crushes the chimera, but the tabaxi pummels him repeatedly with his warhammer, forcing him back into his normal form. The others barrage the tabaxi, but he withstands their attacks and injures them in return. Ahrm is struck down multiple times, but keeps fighting with the help of Vojta’s healing. Eventually the tabaxi catches on and stomps on Ahrm’s body while he’s down, fatally crushing him. Grombrin charges to avenge him and smashes his sword through the tabaxi’s helmet.

While they recuperate, the remaining members realise that they will be clueless going to Glyckheart without Ahrm. Grombrin mentions that he could use his magic to communicate with Ahrm’s spirit for a short time. Before doing so, the group decides to secure the surrounding area. Grombrin also takes the tabaxi’s warhammer, which becomes bound to him by a curse, and his plate armour, which the dragonborn blacksmith resizes for him.
