1. Percy Faust finally discovered the general location of Christopher Gardner, the who captured the soul of Felix Faust and used his knowledge to capture Felix's soul and boost his own magical abilities. He uses a spell to try and determine Christopher's exact location, but the spell is revoked by hidden mystical wards and the demon Abnegazar is summoned to attack Percy. It's a surprise, and Percy barely manages to escape.
2. Percy deduces that Christopher has possession of the Green Bell of Uthool, and that he must be seeking out the Silver Wheel of Nyorlath and the Red Jar of Calythos to summon and control the Demons Three. He knows he can't battle Christopher, Zerodos, and the Demons Three on his own, so he sends a message to the rest of Shadowpact.
3. Shadowpact gather and discuss what needs to be done. They know Christopher has the Green Bell of Uthool and that he can't have all three objects, or else he wouldn't be in hiding. They determine to set out to find the Silver Wheel of Nyorlath and the Red Jar of Calythos.
4. Through whatever means, they locate the Silver Wheel of Nyorlath, which is located in the Himalayas. They arrive to find Christopher with it already in his possession. Zerodos, Abnegazar, and Ghast to distract Shadowpact while he teleports out. Once Christopher is gone, the demons follow him. Shadowpact discusses why he left when he had all of the Demons Three. Percy surmises that Christopher has not had time to subjugate Rath to his will.
5. Shadowpact goes to the city where Christopher is in hiding. When they arrived, they are attacked by followers Christopher has gathered. They defeat their attackers easily, but are too late to stop Christopher from subjugating Rath.
6. Shadowpact fights Zerodos, the Demons Three, and Christopher. Percy takes a private confrontation with Christopher. He uses his own magic to cut off the exchange in power between Christopher and Felix's soul, and then defeats him. Shadowpact defeats the Demons Three and Zerodos and banishes them tot heir rightful places.
7. Percy steals Christopher's soul and seals it within the same lantern used to hold Felix Faust's soul. Felix's soul is returned to Neron by Percy himself, as further punishment for what happened to Sebastian Faust.

| The Inferno |
[19 Aug 2010|06:24pm] |
The Triumvirate of Hell has, for the last time, stood in Lucifer Morningstar's way. After taking notice of a team of magical heroes, Lucifer lures them into crossing the Gates of Hell. Each member of Shadowpact has something(s) stolen from them--something that cannot be replaced, and each of these things are guarded in the different circles of Hell. Lucifer, as crafty as he ism, transforms each stolen object (or person) into a gift for each member of the Triumvirate of Hell.
Gates of Hell:
Squatterbloat
Shadowpact summons the Gates if Hell and must battle Squatterbloat, the guardian of the Gates. The battle does not last for very long, and the team enters Hell.
Limbo, Circle 1:
Asmodel
The team forces their way onto Charon where they are met by Asmodel. They fight and defeat him before reaching Lust.
Lust, Circle 2:
Blaze
Shadowpact descends in the Carnal Tower and battles Blaze.
Gluttony, Circle 3:
Pharyngula
Pharyngula guards the entrance into Gluttony, which resides inside of a large demon. The team must defeat Pharyngula and let themselves be eaten by the demon behind him in order to enter Gluttony, which they then traverse through his stomach and enter the Fourth Circle of Hell through a mirror in his bowels.
Greed, Circle 4:
Merlin and Belial
In a realm of riches, Merlin and Belial reside beyond the puzzles of Plutus. Should the team complete all puzzles without fail, they will only have to fight Belial. If they fail even one of the puzzles, Merlin will fight them as well.
Anger, Circle 5:
Aym
The team must cross the River Styx and enter the City of Dis, where Aym awaits them.
Heresy, Circle 6:
Beelzebub and Gaius Marcus
When Shadowpact first enters the Sixth Circle of Hell, they are "greeted" by Gaius Marcus, now known as Buzz, who is the servant of Beelzebub. After defeating Buzz, the team moves through the circle and eventually encounters Beelzebub himself.
Violence, Circle 7:
Satanus
The team traverses the Wood of Suicide and fight Satanus in the Desert of Burning Sands.
Fraud, Circle 8:
Neron
This is simply a conversation and then a battle. This battle will force the limits of each member of Shadowpact. In the end, the team will barely manage to claim victory over Neron.
Treachery, Circle 9:
Lucifer Morningstar
Shadowpact fights its way to Lake Cocytus. They break through the icy surface and meet Lucifer on his throne. Brief talking ensues, and them Shadowpact attacks Lucifer. Instead of a fight, however, they are transported to Acheron. The artifacts they have collected glow and dissipate, and those things stolen fromt hem are returned to their rightful places.
