Whilst Vlaakith consolidates power on Tu'Narath, a sect of Gith seek to overthrow her and end her undeath - they just need your help.
---
Whether you favour peaceful talks or outright war, sometimes a knife in the dark is all that's needed. Remember: nothing unites the people quite like a politically motivated assassination.
Overthrowing an immortal tyrant is hard from the inside, that's where you come in. Navigate Vlaakith's lair, find her phylactery and end her undeath!
You may (or may not) have played Baldur's Gate 3, and you may (or may not) know who Vlaakith CLVII is. But you definitely don't know about the coup.
Vlaakith has ruled the Githyanki for over a thousand years. A lich of legendary power, she maintains her reign through fear, hatred and an iron fist. Centuries of undeath have only deepened her paranoia. Her latest scheme is enough to draw concern from the Sha'sal Khou:
The creation of Duthka'Gith, terrifying hybrids born from the fusion of Githyanki and dragon through foul magic. Enter the Sha'sal Khou, a clandestine movement of Githyanki and Githzerai seeking to reunite their people under a single leader and a common purpose. They believe Vlaakith must be stopped — permanently.
They need your help killing Vlaakith.

What Matthew (ItsScottish) brings to the table
I will bring the server that the game will be hosted on firstly.
The maps were from the book to fit perfectly whilst playing & the atmosphere has been set to build the story.
📹 Webcams are NOT necessary though I will have mine on during session
🔉 Voices are not required though I will use them myself.
Homebrew rules
Deus Ex Machina
Death hurts us all, rage or sadness pick your poison. That being said, sometimes the war continues. As your friends grieve your loss - your God may reject your soul.
- Every character gets 1
- If you die in a long drawn out battle and get fully expended, by same grace of God, you are brought back to fight a final fight.

Safety
How Matthew (ItsScottish) creates a safe table
📃 Before Session 0 I will send you a Monte Cook RPG Consent Checklist. In this I will tick the things I have OK'd in the game (Both Module and Player Content).
❌ During Session 0 I will go over my lines with you. I will let you know where I stand with things and what I have omitted from the module (if anything). We can also discuss your Consent Form incase similarities arise, an example being "You are not OK with Spiders but are you OK with Scorpions?". As well as that we can create your character (if you do not have one already)
🔁 In the time between S0 and S1 I will remove the tokens of specific creatures and alter the adventure as needed.
🚶During the session you are free to break off for your own reasons - let me know as you do and I will move you along with the party.
🗣️ At the end of all my games I oft sit and talk with my players for a bit. As soon as the game ends the line between DM and player dissolves and I like to make that obvious.
