The Forge

The Wax Familiar A tiny familiar made of melted candle wax, animated by the last breath of the dead wizard who owned it. Its flame-wick heart still burns with half-remembered cantrips, and it whispers secrets in dripping, molten words. The Fen Stalker A gaunt, moss-backed stalker that hunts the deep marsh, breathing through hollow reeds while it waits beneath the waterline. It collapses mud banks to split the party and drags lone stragglers under. The Drowned Queen An ancient drowned queen who holds court in a sunken cathedral, her coral-fused crown still commanding the tide. She raises drowned courtiers from the silt as legendary actions.
