The Aeriemaster

"Yeeessss, come closer, come closer. Speak to me the morsels you have gathered, that we might feast on them together!"
High in the Starfrost Mountains is the Last Aerie, a mountain peak city home to kenku and aarakocra. Its master's identity is largely unknown; denizens of the Last Aeries simply call them the "Aeriemaster," with the suggestion that the individual that bears that name has changed over the years. Greedy for knowledge and driven by a desire to know the secrets of others, the Aeriemaster sends their people out into the world to recover knowledge and send it home on the wings of ravens and hawks. Cruel and unrelenting, the Aeriemaster has never hesitated to use such secrets against others – or even to sell those secrets to the highest bidder.

Usual Location

If the Aeriemaster ever leaves the Last Aerie, no one has actually heard of it happening.

Allies

• The Aeriemasters of the Last Aerie have a long-standing tradition of working closely if hesitantly with the servitors of the Slumbering Inferno, providing what help they can without committing themselves to the Inferno's monstrous cause.
• In contrast, the Queen of Frost has been known to make sudden appearances in the Last Aerie, welcomed with all pomp and blessings by the Aeriemaster.

Enemies

• When the apex predator called only the Berserker comes hunting, it is every avian for themselves in the Last Aerie. As a result, the Aeriemaster bears ill will against the terror and the followers he spawns in his wake.
• The secrets game has also won the Aeriemaster an enemy in the Sea Lords who are quite fond of their hidden plots. The agents of the Sea Lord often stymie Aeriefolk when they can, and the avian peoples of the Last Aerie return the favor when they might.

Unique Token Benefits

• Great Wings: It is said that those favored by the Aeriemaster can sometimes gain access to giant eagles and other flying entities that will carry allies far distances.
