== Owlbear | == Owlbear den == | ||
A large cavern where the wounded [[Owlbear]] and her [[Owlbear Cub|cub]] is. There are two ways to approach this area: The path leading from the entrance, or up a slope by the Selûne Shrine. Without using stealth, you'll be quickly noticed and forced to interact with the beast, leading to or avoiding a fight. Details on possible interaction and tactics can be found [[Owlbear|here]]. | |||
If a fight | If a fight does break out and the cub survives, you will get the choice to either spare it or finish it off while it's eating its mother's remains. '''This is a critical choice if you plan to have the cub become a camp follower.''' | ||
After the fight, there is a headless skeleton by the nest which has the {{RarityItem|The Oak Father's Embrace}}. Next to it is the valuable {{RarityItem|Owlbear Egg}}, worth 750 gold and provides 40 [[Camp Supplies]], which can also be saved for the [[Steal a Githyanki Egg]] quest. | |||
== Selûne shrine == | |||
If you follow the southwestern path from the main trail, there is a climbable cliff that will lead to this secluded shrine. The peaceful shrine has a collection of offerings that can prove quite useful with dealing with the Owlbear, notably the {{RarityItem|Potion of Animal Speaking}}. There is also a Gilded Chest surrounded by a magical aura, which if interacted will unleash a burst of magic. {{Saving Throw|DEX|dc=14}} is required to avoid taking {{DamageText|4d6|Radiant}} damage. | |||
To open the Gilded Chest, jump behind the Selûne statue. If you succeed at a passive {{Ability check|Perception|10}}. check, you'll find a {{RarityItem|Selûnite Prayer Sheet}} which can be identified with a passive {{Ability check|History|15}}. Read the prayer item next to the chest using anyone other than [[Shadowheart]] to successfully dispel the seal, rewarding 15 experience and triggering the [[Acolyte]] [[Inspiration]], Her Gift of Silver. Alternatively, [[Cleric|Clerics]] worshiping Selûne will be able to open the chest without performing the aforementioned steps. The [[Knock]] spell also opens it easily. The chest holds the {{RarityItem|Moondrop Pendant}}, some valuables and the unique {{RarityItem|Idol of Selûne}}, which can make a interesting camp decoration. | |||
If you try to take the items in the chest while Shadowheart is in the party, you will need to make a {{Ability check|Sleight of Hand|15}} or risk losing [[Approval]] with her. | |||
