Description
Wrath of the Seven Sins is a grisly assortment of humanoid body parts stitched and bolted together into a muscled brute imbued with formidable strength. Powerful enchantments protect it, deflecting spells and all but the most potent weapons.
Wrath cannot talk. It cannot bargain, be charmed, or bribed. It attacks until all creatures are dead. Wrath exists as an attempt by the Abbot to create a monster to kill Strahd, but he realized that wrath without compassion, and rage without intelligence, is a worse abomination than a cold despot.
DC15 Perception checks will reveal that 2 of Wrath’s weapons are bright and clean (magical), and 2 are corroded (mundane). DC20 perception will reveal coarse stitching.
When the Abbot created Wrath he envisioned it battling Strahd. He stuffed Wrath with additional weapons and supplies. When defeated, describe the monster as having bits of metal sticking out of it. If the characters “search” by cutting it open, they find
the following amongst matted cloths, dry meat, hay:
•1 each of the following: longsword, mace, dagger, five +1 arrows, scimitar, rapier
•5 potions of greater healing
•99 silver pieces
Note that if Wrath took bludgeoning damage and was healed this is because the healing potions were smashed inside it. Deduct them from the treasure found on a search.
