About: Crotalus is a retired adventurer. She once boldly explored the depths of the mountain-city until the work became too deadly and the treasure scarce. She lives in a small, dusty town at the foot of the mountain. She relates stories of hidden traps and lethal creatures that lurk within the ruins.
Encounters with Crotalus:
Dwarven ruins: If part of the tunnels can be secured, Crotalus is willing to accompany adventurers into the ruins. In the meantime she provided a rudimentary map to a secondary entrance about a half day’s journey from the town which bypasses some of the traps. In addition to the map she presents Alexi and Necklehurst with a magical talisman. While two people are attuned to the talisman, one can transfer a bit of their vitality to the other. She hopes this will help us survive long enough to return the talisman to her.
Crow's Nest bandits: Bandits stole planks of wood from Crotalus's barn and fence, letting Crotalus's cattle roam free. The adventurers dealt with the bandits and retrieved the wood.
