Crag Linnorm

[Lane]

umm I just killed the crag linnorm but I am worried not to brake the game if there was some sort of quest attached to it... Talking about the one in a cave in a bridge area. Is it just random monster you can kill or its somehow tied to a future quest?

You’re fine. He has a thing for the storyteller but that isn’t a quest just part of a set for a reward.

Ok sweet, thanks!

make sure you hold onto the book he drops (the part 2 one), that will be helpful for a later quest. If you already sold it, remember who you sold it to so you can buy it again later if you get the quest.

Thank you, will do!

On a related note - to Linnorms in this game have that same death curse that their tabletop counterparts have? For those curious; this is what the killer of a Crag Linnorm gets in tabletop:

Death Curse (Su) When a creature slays a crag linnorm, the slayer is affected by the curse of fire. Curse of Fire: save Will DC 22; effect creature gains vulnerability to fire. The save DC is Charisma-based.

I didn't notice it upon his death, but my guys may have just made the save.

I also wouldn't be surprised if they didn't implement it either. Especially if the Crag Linnorm is the only kind in the game - it'd only take a day or two for Tristian, Herrim, or someone else to cast Remove Curse on whoever got slapped with it and vulnerability to fire's only an issue if Octavia's a little incautious with her fireballs. :P

EDIT: Now if a Cairn Linnorm was in the game, then there'd be a sense of urgency to removing the curse:

ya curses aren't too scary since your party should have remove curse at this point. Still vulnerability fire is scary in this game since the game loves to throw alchemists who do crazy fire damage.

That's true - forgot that there seem to be more Alchemists in the Stolen Lands than I recall seeing in any of the tabletop campaigns I've played in.
