Involvement

Brathwen and his mate Wiss are both Novices of the Absolute and can be found near the entrance of Grymforge, opposite to the berth (X: -608 Y: 404). They have been tasked with disposing of corpses of Deep Gnome slaves that died recently under the rockfall.

Speaking to Brathwen, the player will have an option to ask whether the duergar are searching the bodies for any loot, and roll DC 10 Perception check next, or prepare to attack the duergar (at this point one of the party members might intervene).

If the roll has been successful, the player will notice a trinket on one of the bodies. After that, they might try to obtain the shiny thing by DC 20 Sleight of Hand check, try to chase the two duergar away by DC 10 Deception check, or attack them both.

Failing either check will lead Brathwen to notice the player's actions and take the trinket himself. In further dialogue the duergar will propose to purchase the bauble from him (with possible options to trade, let him take the thing or attack him).

Successful Sleight of Hand check will provide the player with the Fetish of Callarduran Smoothhands. If the player chooses to deceit the duergar and succeed, they will need to loot the dead gnomes one by one until they find the trinket.
