Notes
I ran this module for three hours, so characters earned 60gp, advance a level (if they chose), and earned the Brooch of Shielding as a magic item. While attending a party held by a member of the Nobles, the party witnesses an unlikely attack by an even more unlikely assailant. Asked to investigate, they soon learn that a painting gifted to the noble's wife might hold the key to understanding what transpired. Investigating the art, and the artist, soon reveals that his works are inciting dangerous acts throughout the city and inspiring pyromania in those who view them for too long. The party can collect clues from the artist’s home, an art gallery, and a fan of his work. From these clues, they can establish a connection to a single patron who seems surprisingly supportive of the artist's work and who is actually a member of the Cult of the Eternal Flame seeking to spread chaos and destruction in Mulmaster through the artist. The party can confront the patron as he pursues another scheme, only to realize that the artist has painted his masterwork by defacing, and thus animating, the magmins that begins to smash its way through the city until the characters intervene. Once word reaches the City Watch about the actions of the characters and the discovery of members of a Cult of Elemental Evil, they are willing to release Kata Brizik as a victim of magical influence rather than being responsible for her own actions. If their demands were satisfied, Urdun and Faltyn both pay their rewards to the party. If the party failed them or double-crossed them in some way, they have made potential enemies of them, although Faltyn and the Gos family is a more dangerous foe than Urdun. Assuming he is not killed, Andrik remains insane but his artistry no longer creates the magical effects it once did now that his greatest work has been completed. His talent flickers and then vanishes completely—leaving him despondent and, for the time being, without purpose.
