Summary
Chip is a tiny ruby-eyed earth elemental that emerged when the settlement’s stone key transformed. Calling Tor his great-grandfather, he agreed to guide the party unseen toward “evil Envy” in exchange for gems.
Known Details
- Chip reported the old throne room’s worn-out shield crystal, copper structures, floor circle, sphinx statue, and former trap associated with Kokirem.
- He described Envy’s palace area as jade, with jade walls and throne.
- He found three entry routes: the watched main entrance, the broken-bridge route under repair, and a sealed old ore route reaching a warehouse or storage district at the city edge.
- Chip asked earth-elemental allies to open the sealed route and rode Errol on a test flight, which took roughly two hours at a safe pace.
- On Day 64, Chip brought Skinhead to the trade-hall trap, waited there while the party fought, and later reported that the meteor strike had disrupted his contact with local earth spirits. He remained with the party and resistance after Envy’s apparent fall.
