Trial #16942

Four (un)lucky lab rats 'volunteers' were pulled into a testing area by a wizard that wanted to test the strength of his new creations - some sort of shadowy rat things. They weren't very much of a threat on their own, but they were capable of stealing the strength from those that they laid into as well as inflict some sort of disease (which the asshole wizard so graciously seems to have removed). After a few tests (including an escalating stress test) and a few notes, the wizard sent the party on their merry way, fully healed and compensated for their efforts.

Bobo, Crystalline, Pharos and Shaeda receive 2,250 xp, 2,350 gp, and 5 downtime days.
