History[]
Dangerous Designs[]
The Stahlmaster was created by the Dwendalian inventor Huron Stahlmast. After he was ousted from Hupperdook for his unethcial experimentation methods, he was contacted by Den Hythenos to make weapons for the Kryn Dynasty during the War of Ash and Light. With these funds, he built the Stahlmaster in order to take revenge on the city.[5]
When an adventuring party was hired by Watchmaster Bram Gulchswattle to capture or eliminate Stahlmast,[6] they confronted him in the Clockwork Forge within his lair, where he fought the party while piloting the Stahlmaster. After he was captured or killed, the Stahlmaster was left destroyed beyond repair, but could be stripped for parts worth 350 gold pieces.
