Guillaume: Research

Guillaume, Father Zanthus and the acolyte's went thru the cathedral's library in search for any clue regarding the quasit. Most of the old church's books burned down during the fire a couple of years back but the priests were able to glimpse a couple of clues as to the nature of the creature.

"Here's something." Father Zanthus stated as he read from one of the books. "A quasit is a tiny humanoid-shaped creature with spiky horns and bat wings hovers nearby. Its hands and feet are long and slender, with long, claw-tipped digits. Warts or pustules cover its greenish skin.

"In its natural form, a quasit stands about 1-1/2 feet tall and weighs about 8 pounds. Quasits are insidious demons from the Abyss. They are often found serving chaotic evil spellcasters as counselors and spies.

Father Zanthus looked up from the book and turned to Guy. "Was there any other spellcaster in the catacombs which might have been the creature's master?"

"None that we saw." The eladrin cleric shook his head.

"Well, if it is ancient knowledge you need," Father Zanthus answered as he turned back towards searching the library. "Then Brodert Quink is the one you need to seek out. He is an expert in Varisian history ... a bit of an odd-pot to be honest, and as cantankerous as they come. He has been researching the ancient runes found around these parts, and has some ... strange ... theories about the Old Light and the other ruins in these parts. Still, I recommend you visit him after our current work is done. He isn't exactly a quick talker! Just let me know when you are ready and I can introduce you to him. For what it is worth!"
