Cora is one of the murder targets during the quest [[Investigate the Murders]]. "Master Meztli" is actually the Bhaalist aspirant {{CharLink|Dolor}}, who seeks to kill her and chop off her hand to gain the approval of the [[Murder Tribunal]] and become an Assassin of Bhaal. Note that if the party has entered the [[Murder Tribunal]], or read the [[Bloodstained Parchment]] and approached the proximity of Cora's home, Dolor will have killed Cora after one long rest (''see [[Time sensitive activities#Act_Three|time sensitive activities]]'').

"Master Meztli" is actually the Bhaalist aspirant {{CharLink|Dolor}}, who seeks to kill her and chop off her hand to gain the approval of the [[Murder Tribunal]] and become an Assassin of Bhaal. If the party entered the [[Murder Tribunal]] before, or read the [[Bloodstained Parchment]] and approached the proximity of Cora's home, Dolor will have killed Cora after one long rest (''see [[Time sensitive activities#Act_Three|time sensitive activities]]'').


Upon approaching Cora, she tells the party that she's about to taste some of "Master Meztli's" wine. A successful passive {{Ability check|Medicine|18}} ({{Ability check|Perception|10}} if Barbarian) reveals that the wine smells sickly sweet, with an acrid note on the periphery, indicating poison. The party will face several dialogue options to either drink the wine causing Cora (and optionally the player character) to be poisoned, or they can outright expose Metzli as a serial killer.
