Where should Thrommel's new coffin go?
IMC, the party just destroyed Thrommel's coffin. As per this thread in the rules forum, I've decided that Hedrack will have some Ogres build Thrommel a new coffin, and Thrommel must be buried in it for 7 days of uninterrupted rest to attune to the new coffin; without it, he risks true death if reduced to 0 hp.

So the question is, where would Hedrack put Thrommel's new coffin? Any suggestions?

The Black Cyst seems like it might be a nice safe place to keep it during the week while Thrommel is out of commission. But it's not a good idea to keep it there once Thrommel's up and awake, since he can't get to the cyst in gasseous form from the prime.

Choices:
  1. Through some cracks in the wall of the Grinder.
  2. As one of the clones. Either in the hollowed out corpse of the clone or glamered to look like one.
  3. Next to, or within, the Infernal Machine.
  4. In one of the lightning towers.
  5. In a new hole bored above the Arrowhawk lair.


Regardless, the previous coffin should be rebuilt as a decoy.

Oooh, some of those are really nasty. I don't think the clones is a good idea; the party knows about that room, and is likely to want to destroy all the clones. The arrowhawk lair would be too obvious, I think -- the party has fought vampires three times so far in my game, and two of those fights were both really close to the arrowhawk lair. I really like the idea of putting it inside the Machine, so that to get at the coffin, one of the party members has to step inside. That's _nasty_!

Not sure if this is helpful or not.... but what about in the crypts area with all the spectres/shadows?

I'd think Hedrack could rebuke them or even Thrommel could dominate them if needs be to get access there and that would make for a very defended place for his coffin and for him to 'attune' himself. As the undead there would leave him alone and attack any intruders regardless of why they are there.

Although I do like the machine idea too, thought I'd add my 2 cp.

I put my party through the Grinder, I think it's only fair someone else gets to put me through it.

-Thrommel, who's relying on his fast healing and gaseous form to pull this one off.
