(@Wile_E_Coyote, I'm uncertain about the intention of the Archon. Is he here to hunt the party down and transport everyone to a particular place? Or is he just here to retrieve the silver skull?)
Sam is illuminated by the light streaming in by the he overhead as well as torches within Seodra's cell.
He and the lizardfolk render there see one another. They find they are uncomfortably close to one another (within 5ft).
As the darkness dissipates around his form you see him once before he’s was 6ft now he’s has grown an ft and a half extra slightly taller than the lizardfolk that he now stands against and speaks in draconic to the render “come now brother the future is are for the taking the profits here are clouded by the mage and the being upstairs judgement are god wants use I am his voice, wrath and mercy the new era that we are promised will bring us back to are dominant rule of Chult no more hiding in the dark and the jungles” then points to the fallen archon “he’s the one that will shackle you and threats are way of life join me and be blessed in are new era”

< He serves Moloch, who blesses this temple with the gems that will be the eyes of this lich skull, the largest thst have spawned in the subterranean lake to date. They formerly sat in the statue of Moloch - which was kind of a big deal for him. So, specifically here on Oerth to wrangle the thieves that came in and wrecked the place, (taking some valuable assets with them,) but as they have just returned to steal the crown jewels, it's sort of both things at this point. Thesselar, separately, would very much like his phylactery back - but doesn't have much say as the what the archon does. Thesselar is sort of the prime minister here while Moloch or the late high priest or the archon are more like the queen and her various functionaries - technically the figurehead and seat of rule, but in practical matters more or less irrelevant. Though in this case, if you find yourself on the monarch's bad side, well there could be certain direct consequences for failure. >
<@Sam, nice rp for the modified racial traits we discussed. Given that, and the nature of lizardfolk, the initial roll csn be made with advantage. I have a DC in mind, and thus could work, just haven't met the DC... yet. Give it one more d20.>
Gravity lifts the silver skull upwards and tosses it towards Seodra, then instructs her by saying: "Hold it tight, and follow me. We need to locate Thesselar and persuade him to let us go."
He is within 30ft of all PCs.
Con save 17
Sam and Gravity are up.Ooc: remind, who has the silver skull again?
(Gravity has it)
(Agreed, Gravity is holding the silver skull and she's not letting it go.)

(Forgot to say he moves towards Gravity*)
(Well the wizard is out of range of bane, having teleported further away Is the darkness still up?)
Its on.
(Didn’t know if the darkness required concentration checks). Tetrevess will cast 3rd level dispel magic on the darkness, through the manifest mind.
