Identity

  • Name: Screech Sagg
  • Gender: Male
  • Class: Bard
  • Tribe origin: Unknown — not recorded in available sources
  • Player: Thomas

Roster Note

Screech Sagg was not present from session 1. He is not a Licktoad — his tribal origin is unrecorded. He was found cocooned in a spider cave during the 30.11.2024 Sandhausen session and joined the party there. His boots had been stolen by spiders before the party freed him. He is first confirmed in FoundryVTT on 1/18/2025.

The campaign account (our-campaign-story.md) is a narrative retelling that puts all eight together from the start; this is literary license. Source-hierarchy.md takes precedence: Screech joined in late 2024, not at the beginning.

Physical & Personality

His early signature is humming something that was almost music — a bard whose craft is present but unpolished at the start. His performance at the Birdcruncher celebration was received better than it deserved. His songs improved under fire — a canonical character-growth beat across the campaign.

Role in Campaign Events

  • Not present at the whelping cage, Brinestump Marsh, the Kaijitsu Star, Vorka, the Licktoad village, the Squealy Nord recovery, the second ship expedition, the Ashen Rise journey, or the initial Birdcruncher events and Manschmied Farm.
  • 30.11.2024 (Sandhausen) — joined: Found cocooned in the spider cave corridor. His boots were stolen by spiders. Freed by the party. Was the last to be pulled into the Astral Plane (pull order: Sneaky → Princess → Rrrahah → Bubble → Shvub-Mah → Screech last). remembered — T3
  • 18.01.2025 (Online) — first FoundryVTT confirmation: Active and rolling dice. confirmed — T1
  • Present through the Thistletop operations (Leer, Wrexen, Sandhausen December 2025 sessions).
  • Thistletop dungeon (05.12.2025): When the Jethounds appeared in the cathedral chamber and howled, Screech laughed at them. The party was unafraid. remembered — T3
  • Present at the Temple of Lamashtu — the last recorded encounter.

Status at End of Known Account

Active. Present at the Temple of Lamashtu — the last recorded encounter. Fate beyond that point is TBD.

Notes

  • His tribal origin is not recorded. He was found in isolation, cocooned — no tribal context given in T1–T3.
  • "Songs improved under fire" is a canonical character arc from the primary source (T4). Preserve in narrative use.
