Liam

Liam is a Human character that is trapped in the torture rack by the Shattered Sanctum. Torturer Spike will be torturing him for the information about the Emerald Grove.

Involvement

Act One

Liam is one of the adventurers who went with Aradin Beno to the Shattered Sanctum, hoping to find the Nightsong. According to Remira, Liam was the first to charge the goblins, but the other adventurers thought he was reckless and left him to his fate.

The party can decide to show the goblins how to properly torture their prisoner. If successful, Liam will reveal the location of the Grove, and Template:CharLinmk will report the information to Minthara. After the goblins have gone, Liam does not think the party is on his side and claims they could have killed him. The party can attempt to calm him with one of the following responses:

• [PERSUASION] It was the only way to get the goblins to leave. (DC 5)
• [INTIMIDATION] And yet you're still alive. Stop whining. (DC 10)
• [BERSERKER] [INTIMIDATION] DON'T TEMPT ME. (DC 10 )
• [BARBARIAN] [INTIMIDATION] Might be tempted - unless you do as I say. (DC 10 )
• [DETECT THOUGHTS] [WISDOM] Read his mind.
  • Remira sent me. She said you were in trouble.

If the check is passed, the party can ask Liam about Halsin and how he was really looking for the Nightsong.

Alternatively, the party can choose to free Liam by either killing the goblins or convincing Torturer Spike to leave. If successfully released, Liam will run away through a hidden path in the same room.

Afterwards, he can be found resting in the Emerald Grove next to his fellow adventures.
