#11 Rohas, the Diseased Village

 This was a fun one. It's what I call a "Scooby Doo Session". They had a rough time investigating and started to get flustered so I sped it along. I made this creature with the help of my DM from my other campaign. After every long rest, the monster steals stat points from all of the sinner/evil creatures. Had the players roll a d6 to see what stat would be randomly stolen. 

The party entered town and noticed sickly people. They did some investigating and noticed there was no alcohol at the bar/inn. Just 'root beer'. It wasn't called that, but it was a sugary drink that the mayor makes from all the sugarcane farms surrounding the village. 

After a few drinks, they went to their rooms. After they woke up all they knew is that they feel weaker. They went to visit the mayor about the drink, which they found nothing suspicious except his father is ill. They went to the docks to find the only fisherman was doing exceptionally well, and caught him in a lie that he buys the fish and brings them back for a profit. 

The bum outside of the bar/inn was drinking alcohol when they first entered town, and was now dead after the second long rest. 

On the third day, they learned the priest of the town was new. The old priest had left about two weeks ago to help heal the ill in another town. The new priest came out of nowhere a few days prior to the party arriving. The party then interrogated the new priest to the point where he got frustrated and asked them to leave. They then ventured down the well where they found the disposed bodies of the sapped corpses. When they got out of the bottom of the well, they went back to the church and basically said, we know its you, stop. The priest then turned into his true form, a fallen angel.

 

The fallen angel said he was kicked out of heaven for being corrupt and forcing other angels to sap the life out of evil/sinners. The fallen angel is trying to regain his way into heaven. The stats he sapped were given to his minions he spawns. After a REALLY heated battle and some choice words were said about legendary actions, they killed him. (they really hate "I act on your turn. Ha. Legendary action" or legendary resistances) 

Since Rohas no longer has a priest/healer, Lana volunteered to fill the spot, indefinitely. Removing her from the party.
