The Cloistered Cove¸ a Thither Adventure
 |
Introduction
Will of the Feywild¸ Leader of the Getaway Gang¸ is believed by some to be the liberator of Thither. With a warm heart and hidden haven¸ Will saves lost children from the clutches of Skabatha Nightshade. However¸ Will's dark prologue and true identity is a history known to very few. When his past comes back to haunt Will's present¸ what will the heroes make of the future?
A Wild Beyond the Witchlight Expansion - What's this all about?
Chapter 3: Thither is the second portion of Prismeer described in The Wild Beyond the Witchlight. Each of the locations presented in this chapter can be explored quickly¸ outside of Loomlurch. This mini-adventure aims to add a new location¸ the Cloistered Cove and integrate it seamlessly into the flow of the chapter. At this location¸ characters can partake in some tactical combat (or find clever ways to avoid it)¸ engage more deeply with Will of the Feywild¸ and potentially even rescue a guide to Yon.
Possibly the most iconic NPC in Thither¸ Will of the Feywild has thwarted Skabatha Nightshade at every turn. Charming¸ childlike¸ and abundantly good¸ this rapscallion harbors a dark secret. While a source of dramatic irony for the DM¸ it's rather unlikely that Will's evil past will be revealed.
This supplement aims to expand (and potentially expose) this backstory with a whimsical adventure. As always¸ it is up to you how much of the content you want to use. It's perfectly fine to use some parts of this supplement while discarding others¸ or simply let the ideas presented here inspire new ideas of your own. This supplement assumes a party of 4-6 characters of 4th level with scaling options for higher levels.
This Adventure Includes:
A New Location in Thither. Explore the crashed airship at Cloistered Cove! Color VTT-Ready Maps. Fight or content with the forces of evil and good on a beautiful hand-drawn landscape. Expanded Backstory and Lore. What happens when the party learns the truth about Will of the Feywild? Let's find out!
Adventure Summary
The party heads to the Cloistered Cove to confront Big Red¸ a fearsome redcap who lives in a crashed airship. As they approach¸ they'll find they must first contend with Big Red's companion¸ Squeamish¸ who can be found scrubbing the decks. After their encounter¸ the party can continue into the Captain's Quarters to talk to or fight Big Red. He would like to use the party to his advantage¸ and will reveal the ugly truth about Will of the Feywild's past in the hope of turning the party against his nemesis. Successful or not¸ Big Red will also attempt to use the party to kill an awakened crocodile that has been targeting him for some time. After contending with the crocodile¸ the party will once again get the opportunity to talk to Big Red¸ who above all else wants to bathe his hat in the blood of Will of the Feywild¸ and will do whatever it takes to accomplish his goal.
