History
At some point around the late 1490s DR, Trap and Trick's gnome village were taken captive by a group of illithids led by the elder brain Zuphelithid.

The two sisters managed to escape danger by hiding in the ruins of Dolblunde, located near their village. They searched after the powerful helm of disjunction, which was in the possession of a traveling paladin, Xenk Yendar. The duo manipulated Xenk by pretending they were in trouble, entrapping him beneath a sleeping earth elemental. They managed to steal the helm for a few moments, before the paladin caught up with them. The girls appealed to Xenk's sense of justice and right, explaining that they needed the artifact to save their people. Xenk vowed that he would intervene on their behalf.

Xenk the paladin ventured into the lair of the elder brain Zuphelithid. Trap and Trick followed some ways behind, carrying with them the helm of disjunction. Unfortunately for the trio, Xenk was overwhelmed by the elder brain and subdued by his psychic powers. Zuphelithid stole the helm from Trick, and enthralled her just as it had done to her family.

Trap and Xenk were distraught by their defeat, but undeterred from saving Trick. Xenk marched off to fight Zuphelithid once again, and Trap piloted a massive, earth-moving vehicle into the lair behind him. Trap drove the machine through the elder brain's lair, and used it to pierce the fortified bubble that surrounded its brain. This gave Xenk the opportunity to cleave the massive elder brain in half.

Through their efforts, Trick was freed from the mental domination, and the gnome villagers were freed. In exchange, the grateful Trick offered to help Xenk hide away the helm of disjunction, as he sought to do when he met her and Trap. The three heroes bid each other well; Xenk left for the surface world, and the two sisters reunited with their parents.
