History[]
The Legend of Vox Machina[]
The party was told by Osysa the sphinx to seek the first vestige, Deathwalker's Ward, and bring it to Osysa's mate Kamaljiori.[1] After Vax'ildan found himself wearing Deathwalker's Ward, he received a vision of a gigantic sphinx and a twin-peaked jagged mountain,[2] and led Vox Machina there over the next few days. The mountain was surrounded by obelisk-like pillars carved with ancient runes which Percy translated as reading, "Seekers (or fools), flee this land, for dangers come from paradise." Vex'ahlia was able to locate an illusion-hidden door and they found an immense cavern within, which Vax'ildan recognized as a pre-Calamity temple. It was the lair of Kamaljiori, who after Scanlan Shorthalt succeeded in the sphinx's challenge, gave him another vestige, the sword Mythcarver. Umbrasyl interrupted by crashing through the ceiling of the temple, attacking and eventually killing Kamaljiori, but the party was able to Plane Shift to safety.[3]
Trivia[]
- Rimecleft was a location created for the animated series because the party was on the continent of Issylra and the writers didn't want to have to deal with traveling back to Tal'Dorei, which was Kamaljiori's location in Campaign One.[4]
- According to Matthew Mercer, Rimecleft would be part of the uncharted territory that Vox Machina didn't get to explore in their campaign.[5]
