adventurers are currently in the Neverwinter Forest and are attempting to take
back Falcon’s, (real name: Gustaf
Stellern), hunters’ lodge. The
have started to pick away at the Orcs and the elephant sized Gorthok, the
thunder boar when they came rushing out of the lodge. Now it’s time to get
inside and clear out the place! As
the adventurers rush through the opened burning gate area from the fireball
spell, they engaged the Orcs with the flaming sphere spell and their weapons. Marcuria,
used the barbarian rage and created wings to fly up near the top of the tower
to act as a distraction for the two orcs stationed up there. Once the party was
inside, including Avery running up the tower to assist if needed, Marcuria, moved to engage the two orcs on the
tower and they were eventually defeated! The
Orcs from the south gate moved north to try to get the party from behind.
However, Feralda simply Fireball spells them out of commission! Falcon,
helps the party by picking away the Orcs with his longbow shots. Dia
and Rolo, kept attacking with the fire bolt cantrip, to help defeat the orcs,
Dia nailing one on the main entrance gate’s roof! The
party then moves on to the main gate entrance on the west side of the lodge,
which has a bridge over a stream, in order to deal with the last Orc up on it’s
roof and Feralda finished him with a fire bolt cantrip! Once
it was determined there were no more orcs around, the party began to look for
buckets and anything else to help put out the fire around the north gate on the
east side, taking water from the stream. Falcon
and his two helpers Corwin and Pell stay behind, while still staying at the
hidden campsite, in order to see what needs cleaned up and repaired and to make
sure no more orcs, anchorites or nasty spirit animals return. The
party now moves onwards with Reidoth the druid’s woodland friends as guides to
the area where the orcs where coming from. Along the way they were attacked by
two gricks disguised as boulders and the party, quickly dispatched them! The
adventurers continue onwards and now see that Grannoc’s map from the woodland
manse is matching up with the way they are following when they then come upon
the following: You come upon a sixty-foot-wide forest clearing, in
the middle of which is a black, needle-like spire—a forty-foot-tall pine tree
ravaged by fire long ago, its limbs burned off. Tied to the dead tree near its
base are ten ghastly dolls made of twigs bound with black hair. Dia, casts detect magic as a ritual to find out that
auras of transmutation magic emanates from the tree and the 60 feet radius
around the tree as well! Knowing
that the Anchorites of Talos, have a knack for making voodoo dolls and that
they could possibly come to life, the party just ignores the scene and
continues onwards until they reach a ravine: As you make your way across uneven ground
rising to a ridge, eighteen hulking orcs ascend a similar ridge across from
you, separated from you by a sixty-foot-wide, ten-foot-deep gully. The orcs
unleash terrible battle cries as they are joined by a humanoid with elongated
claws. Juan
and Roqar, immediately recognized the half-orc with the elongated claws as an
Anchorite of Talos! The
battle here starts with a volley of missile ranged weapon attacks and Marcuria
tries to taunt some of the orcs, being successful on taunting four of them
along the front line! And this ends the gaming session for the day, until next time! It is now July 7th at 12:30 pm. The Adventurers’ Experience Points Earned This
