D&D 4e "Vanguard of Dis" (9/11, 8 pm Eastern)

VANGUARD OF DIS The Scions of Dispater - Titivullis Rex, Hex Arcana, and Gall - have desecrated a once-great temple in the Red Canyon and are using it as the site of a tragic ritual sacrifice that will unleash the forces of Hell upon the world... ... Princess Lilac , a mortal of innocent blood, will be among these sacrifices. To pierce the barrier between the Prime Material and the Cruel Misery of the Nine Hells , the dastardly tieflings are focusing the energy of the ritual through the legendary Jewel of Fate whose unfathomable value would make any adventurer among the richest men or women in the world. Will you stop your nemeses, save the girl, and steal the artifact? Or will your soul be consigned to the infernal depths of Baator? Let's find out Wednesday, September 11th, 8 pm Eastern! Looking for 5 players. D&D 4e, 6th-level, one-shot All legal character options permitted, standard wealth Google+ Hangouts for voice chat (required) Experience with D&D 4e required At least basic macros required Those expressing interest in this post or via PM will be given a link to the campaign. There you will find further instructions to secure your spot.  Your spot is not secured until those instructions are followed.  You will be expected to be on time and stay for the entire scenario (approx. 4 hours). Unannounced tardiness or absences will be met with a ban from all future games this DM runs.

I have an interest in this game, been wanting to play for awhile. Lemme see what's in store, however the 8 is a non due to religious reasons but I could be there around 8:30 - 9:00p.m if that'll be fine.

Thanks for your interest. This DM has a strict policy of starting on time, so unfortunately that delay wouldn't fly. Hopefully you can catch a game some other time.

It's coolio, thanks for the reply and I hope the game goes well for ya :)

A dragonborn paladin comes forward to put a stop to the Scions of Dispater. The enmity between tieflings and dragonborn runs deep to time immemorial. Perhaps this holy warrior has a personal vendetta as well. Four more heroes are needed to end the malevolent machinations of Dispater and his twisted progeny. Will you be equal to the task?

i'm interested, the last game was so much fun

Hello, I would like to join this game as my normal game has been cancelled. Headhunter Jones, please accept my request to play in this one-shot. Thank you, BossBedlam.

I am interested.

According to records found in the vast libraries of Hell (devils are big on paperwork), you have engaged in this scenario previously, Lord Nev. While more souls of the damned are always welcome in the Iron City, Dispater is interested in acquiring new souls which he finds more delicious with his favorite plum sauce. As such, you'll receive an invitation shortly, but we ask that you stand as alternate for now. Should there be a shortfall in supplicants for the Reckoning, you will be most welcome to the damnation that awaits.

Among the many talents of Dispater (and his loyal subjects) is the ability to divine the future from the entrails of willing sacrifices. The way this spleen is laying next to this severed intestine conjures images of a mortal, right around this time tomorrow , crying himself to sleep because he did not sign up to participate in his own destruction at the hands of the Vanguard of Dis. Look at this pathetic worm: Not rolling any macros. Not pretending to be a dwarf. Not making any d*ck or fart jokes. He makes me want to wretch. Could this person be you ? Disgusting . Four more foolish mortals needed to give their all to defeat the Scions of Dispater. I'll be waiting...

I knew this sounded familiar. New character new strategies. But if I could survive so can over 'good' players. =P

A half-elf bard has joined the quest to disrupt the plans of the Scions of Dispater. Will she live to tell the tale of this most perilous undertaking? Or will her song be a funeral dirge? Three supplicants and a small black candle are all that is yet required to begin the dark ritual.

From the shadows emerges - only briefly - a shade assassin. A creature of darkness going against the Princes of Hell? What act of vengeance is to be played out here in this pivotal moment? And for whom? The prophecy says the fell communion cannot begin until two more fools present themselves for sacrifice. Come forth!

Stepping forward to present his blade comes another dragonborn , a fighter by trade and fortune. It takes little encouragement for those with the blood of dragons to settle old scores with an ancient enemy. But who will prevail? Only the blood of one more hero is yet needed for the journey to the Red Canyon to commence. Getting there is certain - returning is not.

The journey begins to the Red Canyon as the party's scout - a hengeyokai - tumbles out of a thorny bush nearby. Surely he will know the way. Armed to the teeth and fueled by revenge, honor, and a sense of higher purpose, the final confrontation for the fate of the world is set to begin. Though  this party is full, there is always the expectation of loss. Ye who seek to test your mettle against the Scions of Dispater are welcome to make it known and act as alternates should one of these heroes falls in battle or fails to make it to the Red Canyon on time.
