Vidic’s Occult Hunt
Hook
Vidic hunts occult evil across Ravenloft and mentioned two nearby threats: a hidden house close to Rivalis and a whistling fiend he intends to investigate.
Evidence
- Vidic had watched the party since their fight in the Crystal Gardens.
- He tested their attitudes toward occult power before offering information.
- He said the hidden house was very close to Rivalis and associated it with occult evil.
- He named a whistling fiend as another subject of investigation.
- Vidic supplied a Mist talisman leading to the hidden house and requested a report.
- He revealed that his unnamed order does not tolerate occult atrocities.
- Investigation established the estate as Richten House, a haunted mini-domain filled with Van Richten’s research.
- Vidic met the party at Richten House, received their report, and initiated them into the Keepers of the Feather.
- He then departed to investigate the whistling fiend in a forest he called Clawgin.
- The party met Vidic again near the Final Audit. He was still investigating whistles and chimes in the Forest of Shadows.
Open questions
- What is a whistling fiend?
- What did the earlier name “Clawgin” refer to?
- Will Vidic return from the hunt?
Next steps
- Await Vidic’s report or search the Forest of Shadows.
- Listen for reports of unnatural whistling or related attacks.
