			=== Situation ===
			Aial Rek'Ta, purveyor of the Gilded Shore, has been roped into helping [[Chassath Delmirev]], a wealthy patron at the resort. Chassath has requested people to be brought his chambers, where he conducts bizarre rituals with these people. While they do not die, they lose all semblance of self as they sit almost lifelessly in the room with Chassath, only able to do simple tasks when commanded to.

			Chassath has shown great power, and has promised both Aial and two other patrons at the establishment a share in this power if they participate in these rituals. Aial has already been able to cast magic through this pact (Simple prestidigitation cantrip). Little do these people know that Chassath's patron - A [https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/nalfeshnee Nalfashnee] named Baroardagh is using the power generated from the souls of these people to open a portal into the Prime Material plane so he can consume their flesh.

			Chassath needs 5 days from the moment the players arrive in Silcost to prepare the ritual necessary to open the portal to the location in the Nine Hells where Baroardagh is located.

			Note; a low level party will not be able to defeat Baroardagh. Their only chance is to stop Chassath (a fifth level Warlock with Fiend patron) before he opens the portal, or use a spell like "Dispel Magic" on the portal before the fiend steps through.
