HighRollers: Lightfall/Episode 36

"Werewolves!" is the thirty-sixth session of the Lightfall Campaign for High Rollers D&D. It was broadcast live on the Yogscast Twitch channel on January 15, 2017.

In this session, upon infiltrating the Spire of Winter, however, the adventurers soon find all of the elven royals infected by Fenris' curse. King Selandris is the culprit and so is his family less Nalistri. He just need Elora to join them so his ultimate goal of uniting the elven kind can be complete.

Recap
A diplomatic convoy, led by Nalistri and consisting of King Alfadon and Queen Aletha of the Spire of the Moon, Queen Shalana and Commander Payla of the Spire of Eternal Autumn, and the adventurers (Cam, Elora, Jiǔtóu and Trellimar), has reached the Spire of Winter. They are on a mission to re-connect with the Spire, as well as discussing the possibility of uniting the elven kind.

However, strange things are at foot. King Selandris' son, Daphemir, was killed sometime before the convoy's arrival. Several townsfolk from a nearby settlement of Hallow are murdered. These events are soon discovered by the adventurers (now including Nalistri) to be linked to an archfey spirit, Fenris, who is seeking revenge against the elves. It is later discovered that Fenris has also given a curse or boon to King Selandris. The Winter Spire is now under siege from within, with King Selandris furthering his goal to unite the elven kind.

Planning to infiltrate the Winter Spire yet bypassing the Spire's defences, the adventurers decide to travel into a Feywild demiplane, which happens to be Fenris' lair. They meet a crew of trapped planar pirates and a dryad employed by Fenris when she was an archfey. Both parties assist the adventurers. They also meet Fenris herself, which leads into a battle after Cam attacked her with a dagger covered in special potion given by the dryad. Cam nearly died but they manage to defeat Fenris, leaving her in a weaken state and her form dissipates into a blizzard. The adventurers then walk through a portal into the Winter Spire.

The adventurers quietly search the Spire for any signs of the elven nobles. With the help of Trellimar donning his Shroud of Eyes mask to see through walls, they are aware that Selandris' daughter, Sylval, is seen sitting on his throne in the throne room. With no signs of other elven nobles, Nalistri leads them further up to the Frostwalkers' chambers. However, on arrival, the doors of the King's and Queen's chamber is smashed open from the inside. Two bipedal wolves step out of the room. Their clothes tattered and torn. Yet, they can be recognised as King Alfadon and Queen Shalana...
