CURRENT:

Day 35;  176 days left;  mid day (Tarsakh 3, Year 498 AF) 

Fought an Ochre-Jelly and the halfling was poned.  The halfling needs to get new pants as his were destroyed.  Nothing is visible but artistic.

We have entered the other part of the cavern and encountered that has a shore and a still pond.  There is no sign of anything in the water. There is another path that leads up.  There is a stream that leads to the NE and is slowly flowing.  The depth of the stream is only three feet.  We moved lights over the water but don't see anything moving. I move to the water and put my back to the water.

The stairs lead to a T junction.  To the right is a cavern, to the left is another stairway that goes up.  There is a door at the end of the forward hall that opens into the next room.  Firebeard calls the rogue to the door to check for traps.  As Aggadah gets to the door he hears voices but he does not understand them.  None of us are able to speak the language but we can tell that they are agitated.  Most likely it is goblin but the voices are deep.  This may mean that it is either hobgoblin of bugbears.

Old stone bunks line this room.  There is a fire brazer and the room is filled with Bugbears wielding morning stars.  There are nine in the room and they all appear to be the same skill level.  There is another door but it has been barricaded.  When we open the door they see us.
- Aggadah; casts Shatter in the center of a quartet of bugbears
- Firebeard;
- Alton; He strikes and he deals crit damage
- DuTamn; strikes but misses
- I cast shatter in the center of the round of bugbears for some serious damage.
- Veshna; casts flaming sphere in the brazer and rolls it into the nearest prone
- Slickback; strikes but misses twice for his monk
- evil; several move around the fireball and throw themselves into the combat.

- Aggadah; casts thunderwave as a 2nd level for minor damage and are not pushed back.
- Firebeard; attacks the one that has been fireballed and thunderwaved for serious damage.  He tries to push him over but misses.
- Alton fires in the crowd but misses

- Slickback; strikes with flurry of blows and hits three times

- Slickback; he uses the "People Elbow" and drops the final one.
We take time to loot the bodies in the north barracks.  They all have the same items.  Everything is in good condition except the hide armor.  This is not fancy equipment but it is decent quality.
- 9 morning stars
- 17 javelins
- 9 shields
- 9 hide armor
- pouch with 28 tin, 14 copper, and potion written in goblin (Potion of Vitality, spearmint)

We are seriously hurt and we need to do a long rest.  The other door in the room has been barricaded against the ghouls from the other section.  This door is good.  We take the bodies down to the water but make it clear not to touch the water.  We lock our selves into this room and we take the rest.

Day 36;  175 days left;  mid-day (Tarsakh 4, Year 498 AF)

We decide to move down the hall and have a choice to either take stairs up or a tunnel.  When we get to the end of the tunnel it is blocked on one side and there is a double door.  The door is locked but it is the path we are taking.  The doors open into the hallway.

When we open the doors to the room there is a large stature of a gnome.  This appears to be a temple.  There are several other creatures in the room.  There is a human, dark elf, and three bug bears.  The dark elf is carrying a staff.  Hiding in the shadows are four giant spiders.

Eleasis (August) 498AF - Villa Staff - Loot List

Image
Three part post, background of the first month back. A list of our villa staff. And finally, a comprehensive list of all the shit we dragged back with us. Please let me know what you want. Return Eleasis (august) 1, 498 AF The party returns home and decides to accept the cities offer and combine their villa with the one behind theirs. The dividing wall has been removed and the debris from the burned villa has been removed and the party now has 2.4 acres of prime real estate inside Tul D'Neir. It costs the party 60gp / month each to rent and maintain the property, grounds and staff. Since the party is famous and well trained in skills, it takes no extra work then training people, standard thieving, standard performing, etc, to make this 60gp/month. The only thing you need to pay for is your lifestyle expense, since we already have the place to stay, the only cost would be food, so half of the per day lifestyle. [For example, Slickback wants to live comform...

New Villa Backstory

Here is the backstory on the villa behind the original party villa. We have now expanded into it. It would give the party 4 times more land (now about 2.4 acres), and although there is no longer a main house, there is a 5 story tower in the front corner [The Tower of Vines/ Lawndons Tower] [1] , a few small cottages, a small grove with a pond, a small vineyard and a servants dorm. The extensive stables have fallen into disrepair, only 4 stalls (of 30) are still usable, as has the training area. The family that owned the land (the Lloyds) died off when the main house burned to the ground, killing everyone inside 8 months ago. Everyone in this case include an aged couple Geddy and Gerta Lloyd (man & wife in their late 60), her uncle (also in his 60s) and a feebleminded daughter (in her 20s & heir). The man and wife did have four children, but the oldest son died 10 years ago (along with his entire family and a few cousins) from a deadly sickness at their estate (n...

Gratia, Wranenic and NE [Eastern Hemisphere, 3]

Image
This is part of the world map of the shared world. This is one half of the planet. Call it the Eastern Hemisphere. I have done little more than sketch out and put the roughest of outlines on some of these places. It has been left wide open for others to run with the basics and go from there. This is box 3 on the grid - Current year 2434 The far NW of the Eastern hemisphere, composed of three sets of islands (South, North and Eastern Gratia Islands), as well as Wranenic ('the lonely land'). The three sets of islands couldn't be more different from each other even though they lay in a 1000x1000 mile square area. Accmal - this island sits at the mouth of Accmal Bay in NG. It was once the home to a Pommet trading town (founded in 145) that acted as the port for NG and EG during their reign. The island was over harvested and no trees remain. The island is choked with bludzu (a kudzu like plant) that is covered in large deep red blossoms and thorns. Bludzu was introduced by the P...
