Looking for another player or two to plays Tuesdays at 6:00 P.M. PST every week and playing until about 9:00 P.M. PST. Character would need to be level 5 made with 27 point buy and any specifically D&D related material released by Wizards (including Unearthed Arcana). Use newest source for any given info including Errata and rereleased info from UA such as the Arcane Archer Subclass. Party currently consists of a Champion Fighter, a Battle Master Fighter, and a Hunter Ranger. Open to all sorts of players. Text only. Setting is High Fantasy non-specific place (have yet to decide on much other than there is a Good Drow Kingdom set above ground, meaning they lose their sunlight sensitivity, but their darkvision is lowered to the normal 60). Any questions, go ahead and ask 'em here. A Summary of the game Session 1 The adventurers Ricardo Le'Bluff, Dargon Battleborn,
Auggal Flowerpicker Nola-Kugoni, Julian Erevard, and Dora Siran, were
all contacted by Fellan Nightshard through her halfling attendant
Marcucio, that they were needed to meet at the Flying Unicorn tavern, in
Wisenwood Town on the night of the Spring Solstice. Upon arriving at
the tavern, Dargon, Ricard, and Auggal all enter together, having been a
party for a short time. next to enter was Julian and last to slip in
was Dora. Ricardo and Dargon began entertaining the tavern while
Auggal asked the barkeep if Fellan Nightshard had made her way their
yet, but she had not. Julian and Dora both overhead Auggal and they
both approached the group, Julan before Dora. Shorty after entered
Marcucio followed by his Lady Fellan. She had the group head to a back
room and explained that she saw something that would surely lead to the
destruction of the town and probably much more. The Cult of Chaos
planned to summon the dreaded Tarrasque. Lady Fellan had foreseen the
five adventurers going to stop the cult before the Tarrasque could be
summoned. She promised payment upon completion and after staying the
night at the inn, the party left. Shortly after they left Wisenwood
Town they were ambushed by 8 kenku. They swiftly dealt with the birdmen
and after looting the assassins they left. they traveled until
nightfall and they made camp. Session 2 While the party
was making camp the party decided in which order to have watches be
kept. Dora offered to take a watch while Auggal quickly drifted off.
Dargon decided to take the watch after Dora, and Julian said he would
take the final watch as he was early to rise anyway. Ricard
begrudgingly took the remaining third watch. Late into Dora's watch she
heard something beyond her sight in the night. She awoke Dargon, who
spotted some creatures out there, and awoke the rest of the party.
Quickly, the rest of the party got up, except Auggal who barely awoke
before the branch-like monsters appeared. They were quickly taken out
though while Ricardo woke up barely enough to give some encouragement to
his fellows. While gathering up some of the branches to use as fire
wood both Dargon and Julian found 3 platinum pieces and a potion of
healing apiece. Dargon shared his spoils with Auggal and Dora, whilst
snuffing Ricardo for his lack of help in their battle. After 4 days
more of traveling the party happened upon some tracks that led off into
the forest, traversing more easily because of Julian. They followed the
tracks to a sparse area of the forest where they avoided a trap, once
more thanks to Julian. They found the tracks stopped in a small
grouping of trees and Julian happened upon a switch, disguised as an old
gnarled knot, that opened a hidden passage to an old abandoned mine.
Inside they heard chanting as they spotted an Ape by the torchlight of
Dargon. The ape seemed hostile and so the group prepared to fight, but
while fighting the ape they attracted the attention of two hobgobins, a
bugbear, a worg, and a wolf. The rest of the party handled the battle
with some inspiration from an invisible Ricardo who continued further,
trying to scout the rest of the dungeon. Eventually he came upon an
Orog, a crossbreed of Orc and Ogre descent. Despite his invisibility,
which was somewhat negated by the magical light he had placed upon his
lute so that he could see, the Orog struck mightily at Ricardo. The
rest of the party arrived soon after to take down the Orog. Now the
party must find the chanting to stop whatever it could be. Session 3 Continuing
the battle from last time the party were rushed by the second Orog.
Dargon and Auggal rushed to meet him, flanking him. Dora followed soon
after. Julian tried to find a way to attack the cultist chanting to the
north, but the cultist was hidden in the darkness. Dargon left the
Orog to Auggal, Dora, and Ricardo who joined the fight late. Ricardo
landed the last blow upon the Orog whilst Julian shot the southern
cultist. Dargon rushed him while the other cultist continued his
chanting to summon the Tarrasque. Dargon lopped off the head of the his
cultist, but the other became revealed by the magic he was casting.
The group assembled and Julian shot the cultist through the eye, killing
him. The cave became enlightened and the party discovered 3 chests, a
wagon and 4 horses kept in a magic circle, asleep. The party discovered
that the circle not only kept the horses asleep, but knocked out almost
any who entered. First Auggal attempted to enter, but was struck with
unconsciousness, but Dargon pulled him out by his arm that was outside
the circle. Dargon tried to investigate the circle but accidentally
slipped in and fell asleep. Ricardo and Dora pulled him out and easily
woke up the both of them. Ricardo joined them and discovered that
scratching out the circle would dispel it. Ricardo though, not wanting
to continuing consciousness for that day entered the circle, and allowed
himself to be knocked out. He was awoken, but soon just fell asleep
where he was. He was pushed farther into the circle and the rest of the
party followed suit and went to sleep. The following morning, The
party awoke, destroyed the circle, awoke the horses and Ricardo and
calmed the horses, with Julian casting Speak with Animal to talk to the
horses, who were freaked out about the deaths of others and fear of
being eaten by the wolf and worg. The party attached the horses to the
wagon and went back to town. Session 4 The party sold some
of their gains before heading into the tavern. There Marcucio waited
at a table for them. He lead them back to Lady Fellan Nightshard who
gave them their 100 gold piece reward for stopping the cult of chaos.
The party then were offered to draw from the Deck of Wondrous things, a
powerful artifact that could provide boons or misfortune. Dargon drew
first and drew the cards, Loki's Gift, The Chameleon's Armor, and The
Transfiguration. The first turned him into a woman, the second changed
his once silver scales green, the last turned his sword from one sword
into another, but he knows not what that does yet. Next was Dora who
drew the Binge Study and the Nemean Lion, neither of which changed her
outward appearance and she didn't feel much different. After her came
Auggal who drew There's No Place
like Home and The Gambler's Luck. The former had no outward
effect, but the latter spat out a scroll that read, "Mr. Auggal, due to
an unpaid fine you now owe the realm 300 gold pieces.
You are expected to pay this fine by the end of the next moon (month).
Signed Courtier Sigmund Delhart, scribe to his Lordship Baron Delmise
Collson." Next Julian drew The Gladiator and the party was whisked off
to an arena where Auggal, Dargon, and Dora sat in stands that they could
not leave to watch the battle between Julian and a Bone Naga. The Bone
Naga was a fierce opponent who cast spells on Julian, at one point
holding him in place. It reacted quickly by biting into Julian, but to
little avail as Julian broke free. It bit again, but missed and smashed
its face on the ground. While it was dazed Julian ran back and fired
an arrow. It hit the Naga, but the Naga surged forward only to be met
by Julian's blades. Soon the Naga tried to retreat and burn Julian with
holy fire, but Julian dodged and blasted the thing with arrows, the
final one piercing the creature's head. They were then transported back
to the backroom of the Flying Unicorn where Lady Fellan asked them to
be her Champions. The party agreed, with Julian taking a little
convincing. She then asked her new Champions to help a dear friend of
her's Bromin Kallbreaker. The party agreed and is about to set off on a
three day journey to meet with the man who lost his homeland. Session 5 The
party was preparing to leave as Marcucio came running out of the the
Flying Unicorn, alerting the group that there was someone else in town
who would be of help to the group. The party goes off to find this
person and come to the house of an eccentric painter. They are
introduced to Jazzara T'Sarran a drow mage, a long time friend of
Fellan's. The party, now with Jazzara in tow the party leaves town
heading towards the home of Bromin Kallbreaker. On they road they were
visited by a Giant Owl, Stoutclaw, who gifts them with a Raven Figurine
of Wondrous Power that would be activated by saying Stoutclaws name in
the language of the "Children of the Forest." Stoutclaw tells them that
he is beholden to someone who wants the party to succeed. Stoutclaw
quickly left after that. They moved until they made camp, During the
night they were attacked by both a bugbear and goblin as well as two
Ankhegs. Session 6 The party continued their travels,
facing a shambling mound on their way. They continued until they found
themselves in a snowy mountain pass lined with statues. As they passed a
pair of statues they came to life, revealing themselves to be
gargoyles. The party quickly defeats them and moves on to see a cabin,
the cabin marked to be Bromin Kallbreaker's. Session 7 The
party approached the cabin of Bromin Kallbreaker. He allowed the party
to enter, but made each drink a potion of truth before asking them if
they served Lady Fellan Nightshard. They all took the potion, but when
Dora did, she fell to her knees and transformed into a doppelganger.
Dargon struck at her, but she quickly told the party the she hadn't
replaced the original Dora, just that she had been a doppelganger all
along. The problem is fairly quickly resolved, and soon after a human
man enters with a scar on his neck. He seems mute and apparently is an
ally of Bromin, whom he introduces as Tyr. The group get told the
mission, to liberate Kallbreaker Hall from some monsters. They travel
for three days to get to get to Kallbreaker Hall and after gong through
the gate Bromin explains that the reason they need to clear out some of
the layers of the Hall, is because underneath is a treasure horde, one
Bromin wants so that he can rebuild his domain. He leaves them to it,
because magic doesn't work so well in the layers he sends the group to,
and he, in his own words, "(is) no warrior." The party descends into
the first maze-like layer to find a dozen wolves. They took them down
and when they did the stairs to the next layer appear. Session 8 & 9 On
the second layer the party encountered a few white dragon wyrmlings,
the first of which when killed became a bronze hilt of a sword. Dargon
picked it up and showed it to the others. Julian revealed it to be one
of ten Dragonsoul Blades. Ancient magic created these weapons and if
they are ever destroyed the next dragon hatched of the specific color
becomes the next Dragonsoul Blade upon its death. The party eliminated
the rest of the white dragon wyrmlings. Again the next staircase down
opened for them. They descend are are greeted with another maze like
room that held many large dug out holes. Eventually the party
encounters an Umber Hulk. As they fight it, they become aware that the
Umber Hulk is blind. They take the time to defeat it and in one of the
holes Julian finds another of the Dragonsoul Blades, the Gold one. Session 9 The
party descends the final staircase into the Kallbreaker treasure hold.
There they find the vast treasures that Bromin talked of and Tyrek
revealed that he had the ability of speech. They ascend back up and
Bromin thanks them for their hard work. Now that it had been cleared
the curse against magic had been broken and Bomin sent down his animated
armors to gather the riches so that he could rebuild the Kallbreaker
Clan. While waiting the party told their tales to Tyrek and Tyrek
revealed himself to be a deposed noble who was thought dead by his the
people who killed his family. He gave the party 700 copper, 10000
Silver, 2500 Gold, and 130 Platinum as well as 12 gems, a Javelin of
Lightning, a Cloak of Elvenkind,, a Cloak of Protection, a Mithral
Breastplate, a +1 Dagger, and 5 Handy Haversacks. The party divided up
the coin so that each had 140 copper
2000 silver 500 gold 26
platinum. Dargon laid claim to the Breastplate, Julian to the Cloak of
Protection, and Dora to the +1 Dagger. The Javelin went to Dargon on
the fact that he could throw it best and Tyrek wanted nothing of the
magic items save one of the haversacks. Dora offered to the cloak to
Jazzara or coin if she didn't want it, similar to how Dargon had dealed
with Tyrek. Bromin suggested that Tyrek go with Fellan Nightshard's
champions and so he did. They set off to return to Wisenwood Town. On
the way they faced two ogres trying to pass off as toll men. The party
swiftly dealt with them and headed on.The party rests and faces off against an Oni who snuck into the camp
during Dargon. It enchanted Dargon into thinking that it was his
friend. The oni attacked the party and when the party had dealt enough
damage to it began to fly away. Tyrek especially tried to follow it,
but it soon became invisible and got away. Session 11 The
party made it to town and head to the inn to find Lady Fellan
Nightshard, but are told she isn't scheduled to arrive the next day.
Tyrek looked for a warrior to join the party. He found one who demanded
5 gold per day of work, but refused the pay Tyrek offered until Tyrek
actually needed him. The party spent the night at the inn and awoke the
next morning. They shared a breakfast and sat for a while enjoying the
brief respite. Julian hears a light knocking on the door and opened it
to find a heavily wounded Marcucio. Julian healed the Halfling and
Marcucio told them that Giantkin stole Fellan away.
