— Thulla, delirious from poison

Involvement

Act One

Main articles: Cure the Poisoned Gnome and Find the Missing Boots

Thulla can be found next to  Spaw in Ebonlake Grotto at X: 87 Y: -95. She is slowly dying from the effects of duergar poison, which she was afflicted with from a wound while escaping the duergar slavers from the Decrepit Village. Speaking with her starts Cure the Poisoned Gnome.

Thulla possesses  Boots of Speed which she stole from  Thrinn before escaping Grymforge, presumably by leaping from a balcony near the dormitory at X: -610 Y: 465. The boots are needed to advance ⁠Find the Missing Boots. Thulla offers the boots to the party if they successfully cure her of the poison and agree to help her fellow gnomes.

There are several methods to cure Thulla. The party can administer an  Antidote,  Duergar Antidote, an  Elixir of Poison Resistance or perform spells such as  Lay on Hands,  Lesser Restoration, or  Protection from Poison.

Thulla may also be mercy killed if passing a  DC 15 Persuasion check to end her suffering. Killing Thulla in this way awards the party with 10 XP, but draws attention from the myconoids, demanding this action be explained.

Alternatively, it is possible to obtain the boots without curing her by stealing them following an Investigation roll or looting her corpse when she dies. Doing so will grant the inspiration ⁠Swiftly Stolen to party members with the Criminal background.

Agreeing to help the other gnomes initiates ⁠Save the Grymforge Gnomes.

If Thulla is left to succumb to her poison over the course of the ⁠Deliver Nere's Head quest, she may be encountered later as a spore servant wandering around near  Spaw. If other deep gnomes are rescued from enslavement and travel to the Myconid colony, they lament her death and transformation.

Act Three

If Thulla survives Act One, she can be encountered in Angleiron's Cellar with the Ironhand Gnome resistance. She crafts Runepowder explosives and occasionally discusses resistance plans with the party.
