Pathfinder: The Vampires Revenge

The Elf and the Treasure

Rattle

"Find anything yet?" Jamada asked.

"Not yet." I called back.

After Jamada finish off the vampire, we began looking at the book cases that lined the stone wall. We've been hoping to find a valuable book, of vast knowledge, or something that would activate a switch to a hidden chamber, but we've had no such luck.

I began reading the titles of the many books that alined the shelves, many of which, were Alchemists books. There were also some spell books, and a few books on how to summon different monsters. There was one book in particular that caught my eye, a book on how to summon devil's.

Mhhhh. I thought

"What is it?" Venoms voice said in my head.

Being Serpentfolk we naturally have telepathy, the ability to talk to each other through the mind.

"How long as it been since we last seen Gazra?" I asked.

"About 2 months." Venom said.

"Two months?" I say. "No wonder its been so quite."

I turn my head and see Venom smile.

Gazra is a....... talkative devil. He mostly tells us to burn stuff, burn people, kill everyone in Golarion. The normal. However, the Pit Fiend has his uses. He gives us valuable information, if you ask, and gave us a sort of history lesson on Golarion when we first left the Darklands. The Pit Fiend can be annoying, but he has his uses.

I remember when we found out we were Sorcerers. We were in our vast library, reading about the arcane, and about wizards, because at the time we were trying to become wizards, but everytime we tried we got sick. It was there that I found a book of Sorcerers and decided to test the theory. We went to a secluded cave to test the theory, but I didn't have my hopes up, because we was unable to cast any form of magic for 60 years I didn't think it would work. I stretched out my hand and imagined how the spell I was casting would feel, because that is what most Sorcerers go by, not how the spell works, but how it feels. I was completely surprised when my hand was lit aflame. We became so excited, we nearly brought down the whole cavern in a huge fiery explosion.

That same day, we also found out about our Infernal heritage.

I was asleep at home, sometime at midnight, when I smelled something burning. Our whole house was on fire, but I had this dream countless of times. I wondered through the house and went into my library, there I found my brother, along with a devil. The Pit Fiend was new, and it towered over us, at least 14 ft in height with huge wings on his back. Then, I looked at its feet, and saw our mother and father on the floor, dead.

That's went we realized, it wasn't a dream.

It wasn't the devil that did it though, he was there to tell us of our heritage, and that we caused it. Apparently, we caused another explosion in our house, setting it on fire, and killing our parents. We left the city that night, not wanting to bring any more death or suffering to any of our people, and wanting to understand our powers. A few days later, we went in to a comma like state and found ourselves on a tower of fire, and then the devil appeared and told us of our heritage. Apparently, our fathers grandfathers grandfather made a deal with Gazra to rise to power, and was willing to sell his soul, but Gazra for saw our births and said that we would be payment instead.

Just another reason to dislike Gazra.

But that was in the past, and I don't dwell in something I can't change, but rather I look to the future. Along with anything that might be valuable in this room.
