Defeat Mystic Carrion is gained after following [[Find Mystic Carrion's Servant]] and talking to [[Thrumbo]] after finding him. Siding with Thrumbo initiates [[Defeat Mystic Carrion]]. To kill [[Mystic Carrion]] for good, his heart must be destroyed. Thrumbo mentions he was brought down to a cellar by Mystic Carrion, so the Mansion is a good place to begin. Take the stairs on the side of the mansion without entering the room that Mystic Carrion is in. On this floor, there is a locked door. Lockpicking it leads to a room full of corpses and, further north, an iron ladder (X:19, Y:-153). Take the ladder to find part of Mystic Carrion's lair. Within the lair is a book called [[A Mummy's Memoir]] which references an ancient lair in the [[Undercity Ruins]]. Alternatively, there is a hole in the wall (X:-1499, Y:-140) that can be bypassed using Wild Shape, Disguise Self, Gaseous Form, or other means.

Walkthrough[edit | edit source]

The location of A Mummy's Memoir.

End Mystic Carrion's Immortality is started after choosing to side with Thrumbo during Find Mystic Carrion's Servant. To kill Mystic Carrion for good, his heart must be destroyed. Thrumbo mentions he was brought down to a cellar by Mystic Carrion, so the Philgrave's Mansion is a good place to begin searching. Head up to the second floor to find an iron ladder (X:19, Y:-153) leading down to the Mystic Carrion's basement lair. Within the lair is a book called A Mummy's Memories which references an ancient lair in the Undercity Ruins. Alternatively, there is a hole in the wall (X:-1499, Y:-140) that can be bypassed using Wild Shape, Disguise Self, Gaseous Form, or other means.

Location of Funerary Jar Form and Function.

Travel through the Lower City Sewers to the Undercity Ruins waypoint, then head west to discover a passageway (X:-180, Y:934). Entering the passageway leads to the Ancient Lair and a room full of gilded chests with varying amounts of gold. Also in the middle of the room in the open sarcophagus is found the Breaching Pikestaff. While in this room the entire party is under the curse Spell Rot (Condition). Opening any chest or lockpicking the door (DC 20) causes a horde of undead monsters to rise up and attack the party. A hidden door on the north wall (X:-1390, Y:75) leads to Mystic Carrion's workshop, with a book called Funerary Jar Form and Function (X:-1395, Y:84). Reading it reveals that Carrion's heart is inside of Thrumbo. The Jar of Mystic Carrion's Brain and Jar of Mystic Carrion's Liver can also be found here.

Return to Thrumbo and tell him the heart is inside of him. Disturbed, he pukes up the Jar of Mystic Carrion's Heart. The jar can be destroyed using ranged attacks, as it explodes on destruction dealing 8d6 Fire damage. If giving Mystic Carrion's Heart back to him, or if he steals it from the party, it can be found again in his basement. Destroying the heart completes the quest and updates Find Mystic Carrion's Servant with the objective to return to the mansion and face off against Mystic Carrion, to free Thrumbo and his friends once and for all.
