Brynna

Brynna is a novice of the Absolute. She is searching the Wilderness for survivors of the Nautiloid Wreck alongside her fellow believers Edowin and Andrick.

Involvement

Act One

Brynna is found in the Forest at X: 139 Y: 446 worrying over her brother, Edowin, who is dying from the wounds sustained from an Owlbear attack. She is more suspicious than her brother, Andrick, if the party should try to help.

Brynna has been tasked with looking for survivors of the Nautiloid Wreck. If revealing that the party members are those survivors, or otherwise reveal that they are not followers of the Absolute, she and her brother becomes hostile. If passing Skill Checks involving Medicine or Illithid Persuasion, Brynna and her brother will not attack.

If not revealing their true allegiance, the siblings ask the party what they should do next. They can be convinced to continue searching for survivors, to leave for the Goblin Camp, or to seek out the owlbear that attacked them. If the party resolve the situation peacefully, they are granted 70 Experience. Brynna can be a useful ally against the owlbear and if she survives can be told alongside Andrick to either continue their search for Nautiloid survivors or depart for the Goblin Camp.

In the Goblin Camp, Brynna informs the party that they have not yet found the weapon they are searching for, and comment on her unusual allies. She turns hostile with the rest of the camp if attacking the leaders in the Shattered Sanctum or after the raid on the Emerald Grove.

Killing both Brynna and Andrick awards Reuniting Friends for the Haunted One background.
