C1 - Titans of the Demon Wastes - 2016 -2 - 21 -- Season 3 Episode 02

Season 3 Episode 02 - In the Basement of the Vampire's Castle Early morning the team flies up to what was the high-end townhome of Gang's boss, The Grimm Enchanter.  Neighbors say he's been gone since the riots stopped and 2/3 of the town left for Rotting Blade.  Gang finds the Home Security Cache with 2 missile wands, a scroll of missile wand restoration (ritual), 4 potions: 2 heal 2 featherfall and a bandana of night vision.  Out the front door, down to the helmet ground beneath,  Wind Emus run interference around the Inner Castle while the team bluffs their way through the front door into a fight with squishy pink humans and Scro Marines.... Gang and Feng murder their way through the Fortified Villa up through the master bedrooms while Mika fireballs and torches anything casket shaped or non-pink in flesh color-- it doesn't take long til orcs are stacking up to flood the house with rage and steel while the team finds stairs down into the basement where they find the Crypt... orc army above, scores of caskets in the mossoleum ahead... the team hangs in waiting for next session to roll the initiative of their life. Along the way Gang steals some quality jewelry and Feng manages to Alpha Stare 3 black Poodles into servitude during the castle's raid.  Nearly level 11.. those who survive will earn a level up next session!

side notes: - Mika deploys a textbook definition fireball to AoE & atomize around two dozen orcs that were about to enter the castle - our casters discover design efforts for posters advertising the shindig and meeting for the masses two days from now which will include Bloody Poodle and testimonials by Frank the Legend. BP might not even be in town until then. - Poodles apparently have the ability to snatch victims and take them along to the spirit side if properly motivated - we still haven't run across any vamps ... which isn't surprising since they aren't likely to be out and about in the daytime unless they have a good reason to - the outside of the castle has a demoralizing fog as a passive defense (make a high end WIS save or shop at hot topic) - the tagline and greeting for the Vampire cult/party/grassroots movement is "Eternity for All". T Shirts available in S/M/L/XL and O(gre) - The Grimm has not been around since the riots stopped (according to neighbors) , effectively MIA for 3 weeks now, apartment seemed abandoned - The Grimm's apartment had a security system that accepted Gang's mask as a key card to not get triggered and sounded audible and visual alarms when he rest of us entered. if he does have a secondary workshop in town it stands to reason that those defenses would be a bit more ... vigorous. mental note to have Gang go in solo and disarm before we get close and vaporized.
