─ all being associated with the sea, including water genasi, marid, and merfolk will have slate to silvery grey eyes.
─ any image of gari in disguise will be wearing something blue, ie. blue velvet suit, silk baby blue bathrobe, etc.
"i wish..."
whenever anyone within a 10 foot radius of val, including himself, says the phrase "i wish", he begins to feel the bubble guts and must make a constitution saving throw of at least 15 to avoid throwing up.

if val rolls above a 15, the feeling passes and nothing happens. if he rolls below a 15 and immediately throws up the contents of his stomach, including the ring. the ring begins to glow with a golden light and slowly levitates out of the puke. if anyone reaches out a hand, it will land in it. if no one reaches for the ring, it hovers in front of val's face, spinning in mid-air as he hears a whispering woman's voice say, "wish, and it shall be yours..."

if a wish is made once the ring has been activated, it will trigger the gari event.
the gari event
whenever anyone within a 10 foot radius of val, including himself, says the phrase "i wish", he begins to feel the bubble guts and must make a constitution saving throw of at least 15 to avoid throwing up.

if any character makes a wish while the wish ring is activated, gari will materialize out of any container of water nearby, whether it be the sea, or a pitcher. he will grant the character's wish, but he's a genie, so it's probably not going to be exactly what the person asked for. if a player character is the one getting their wish granted, they must take one level of warlock (genie pact) the next time they level up.

session four: 1/6/2023
  • landing on the beach with philia beating the hell out of lunan.
    • describe the island of wavecrest as you approach. misty morning begins to clear, and you see large shapes in the distance that reveal themselves to be mountains, which makes sense since you've passed a few sea stacks on your way in. beyond the beach, the island is verdant with trees and vines, and from your perspective, you can see that there is a settlement here, and a dock. a winding road starts at the beach and goes up from there, twisting among the landscape and lined with various sized buildings, some with thatched roofs and some made of bleached white walls.
    • they also see philia, laying a very tan, blonde elven man out on the beach.
    • a kobold appears at someone's elbow. he's about three feet tall, with dark red scales, long kind of floppy ears, and small horns. he's wearing a cream tunic with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, brown pants that end just below his knees, and a newsboy hat with holes that allow for his horns to poke out. he informs players that he's to take them to their rooms.
    • with passive perception, players also notice that there are other people waiting there on the beach, watching the boats come in. some hurry to help people out of them, also lifting up any luggage people brought with them. with val's passive perception of 15, you also see some bell carts have been pushed into the sand to collect luggage.

  • wadsworth takes players to their suite.
    • the kobold pushes a bell cart with the players belongings, if they have any.
    • they arrive at a large, white stucco, multi-level building that faces the beach, and cross a courtyard filled with exotic plants and flowers, and a working fountain to get to their room a few stories up. there is something similar to a lift with a firbolg wearing a shirt with the sleeves cut off and a moth eaten bellboy hat operating it.
    • players are brought to a suite, it's nice, but a little dusty with a balcony facing the sea. There's a main living area, a bedroom, and a private bathroom.
    • wadsworth says that it's nice having visitors on the island again--
      "it's been quite a while since we've seen any new faces here on wavecrest.
    • urge players to visit the caves.

  • possible beach encounter, if they choose not to visit caves.
    • as player
