The Irish Demon

Very little is known of this demon, other than his penchant to claim he is an ancient Irish hero, Cu Chulainn. Astute party members noticed oddities about him, like the fact he left hoofprints instead of footprints, and an unusually warm aura about him. Ultimately, Adria's sensitivity to the Holy and Unholy left little doubt about his origins, and he reacted with shock and surprise when Ritter Sigmund's sword drew an ichor instead of blood. The demon had no way of knowing the blade bore a relic from the Crucifixion of Christ.

He was last seen flying away from Dublin bearing both the "Tear of the Virgin Mary" (the unholy meteorite the townsfolk mistook as a holy sign from Heaven), as well as Aed, the glassblower's apprentice whose Guardian Angel made him aware of the demon's and the meteorite's true nature.

Storm

Storm was encountered near the peak of Mount Snaefell, on the Isle of Man. She considered herself the rightful ruler of the mountain and offered her hospitality the Irish expedition. She appeared as an eight-foot tall gull who inhabited a series of caves, a mix of worked and naturally formed. Forest animals of all types seemed to respond to her instantly, as if she were their queen.

One interesting find was a nearly full set of dragon bones in one of the caves she didn't use. She invited the party members to take what they wanted; a few took a tooth from the massive frame. She has invited the characters to return and claim the whole thing if they wanted. A few questions indicated that she had been inhabiting the caves since before the Norse came to claim the islands, and that the dragon was already dead and bones before she got there. Adria found a single partially melted gold coin bearing the face and name of 'NERO' on it.

Storm has an open invitation for any party member to return and visit her.
