Sorcerer Chooki of the Marsh (#2895)

Owner: 0xCa4e…b412

New Lore Entry

Sorcerer Chooki was first seen crossing the Blanket bog in Scotland by a villager named Albany. Chooki was seen from afar moving his hands in a strange and terrifying way. ''e was dressed in long robes 'e was.' said Albany to the village barmen. 'moved 'is 'ands in great circles over 'is 'ead intermixed with giant 'w' here and there. if i didn't know any better and i'm sixty five years old mark you, i'd 'ave thought 'e was trying to summon the Will-o'-the-wisp.'

The Will-o'-the-wisp was best described as a white light humanoid figure spotted first a few decades ago by an eleven year old child. The child ran home and told his mother the story and by evening the whole village knew something evil and sinister was lurking in the bog. Occasionally people would come forward claiming that they too had seen the Will-o'-the-wisp and demanded that the marsh be roped off. They also claimed seeing things at night and hearing groaning sounds whenever they passed by the bog.

Chooki was being detained in an old stable by Achaius, Jaberinse, Kamron, Maolmuire and Gillivray, the five village leaders, for questioning.

Achaius: what were you doing there yer gowk? albany the villager saw you moving suspiciously

Chooki : i'm a sorcerer. My father's tribe first inherited these lands; they were sorcerers too. I know a spell called wllowsp which showed any magical blood in the area. i was chanting the spell while doing the appropriate actions required to locate magical blood when your villager Albert or whoever he is saw me performing the ritual and thought i was summoning some billowing wizz or something

Maolmuire : first off its Albany and secondly Will-o'-the-wisp---

Chooki : whatever grandpa. the point is i was not trying to summon any 'william-yu-wasps' i was trying to find any remaining family member of mine who might be staying in the area. unless you might be able to help me?

Gillivray : Seven years ago a witch was banished from here before we became village heads. the witch went to Leverburgh marshes 10 miles south from here. she was convicted by the five leaders for the murder of an old man even though she claimed that she was innocent. maybe she might know you, her name was 'Ailment' or 'Altita' or something like that.

Chooki: could be my great aunt Ailith though I was sure she was staying in Bucharest... ah well i'll look into it. thanks Gilligray

Maolmuire: where do I even begin? Gillivray, Will-o'-the-wisp---

Chooki: you get what i'm saying Moana!

The village leaders gave Chooki directions to Leverburgh and sent him on his way, relieved to have him out of their hair.
