- | I'm going to use this session as notes for all of us about what happened in each Session. If you have things important to you please add them in too because I'll use that to custom tailor future sessions to your PCs. | + | |

- | Logan was able to impersonate Chachi and buy the fake dragon egg as well as plant the magical pin on the elven Seller' | + | |
- | + | ||

- | + | ||
- | The party was able to rescue the peat bogg family from several goblins and a bugbear. They also rescued a man dressed in all black leather, who held himself like a trained military man. He said to look him up in Phlan sometime. His name was **Chaab**. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party was able to figure out how to capture the lighting from a blue dragon' | + | |

- | ===== Session 2 ===== | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party started out in the Laughing Goblin. [[wiki: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party talked with Keria of the two women and Thirius of the dock workers, which gave them some more information and pushed them to go talk to Liela of House Sokol and to talk to Guard Sergeant Hurn with the Black Fist about Sokol Keep. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party then went to talk to Hurn and Liela. They went to Hurn first, and found him slightly drunk and clueless, although he did point them to the ferryman. Liela, did similarly, and offered to pay the party to get the light back on. She also pointed the party to the ferryman. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party then went to the ferryman, who was eating raw fish on the docks, and he took the party to Thorn Island for 3SP. He spoke with a truck-driver / cajun accent that was hard to understand. He had a crush on Darvag the groundskeeper' | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Meeting with Darvag, Shandra, and their son Rorin, they were given a key and license to explore and investigate the mansion and keep. They went to Igan's study and found Igan's journal and the //Book of Moonsea Cults//. Those alerted the party that their might have been a cult of Dagon on the island, as well as how to open a magic door. The journal was knocked off the shelf by seemingly unknown means. As the party was discussing the journal, all of the chairs in the room also fell over for seemingly unknown means. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party goes to the West tower and discovers freshly torn up earth and finds in the basement an eerie stone and rope. Varatus opens the door with his hand and by speaking the words from Igan's journal. They first get the kid Rorin, and then when he seems too hyperactive and immature to be relied upon, they get Darvag to come oversee the stone. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | They enter the dungeon, encounter a crypt of skeletons, and writing in the mud floor draws and X and and arrow away from them. The party proceeds down a descending hallway to a circular room with water. Logan falls into the sinkhole and takes damage, the rest of the party uses rope to rescue Logan as well as cross the room. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | They encounter 2 empty rooms that may have been jail cells in the past, and then they come to the altar room, where they discover an altar, a jade idol shaped like Dagon (that looks like this: [[http:// | + | |
- | + | ||
- | On the altar was the corpose of Igan turned zombie after being stabbed in the back as well as the corpse of one of the black-fist guards. Two skeletons, a fish ghoul, and 2 zombies fight the party, with the party being triumphant. They then encounter the remaining black-fist guards, including Grim. Grim initially tries to bluff his way out of it, and Varatas tries to make a " | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Varatas also got a //Wand of Magic Detection// | + | |
- | + | ||
- | When the party leaves, the light at Sokol Keep was back on. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party collected their gold, and Varatas made a note to return when their magic was higher to investigate the source of the unforeseen presence. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | **Guys, if you have anything you want to add to it, please feel free.** | + | |
- | + | ||

- | + | ||
- | Varatas on his own met with the medical gnome and got an assessment of the bones. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party borrows horses and sets out on the road, where they met the merchant, ate some duck, and fixed his axle. The party then encountered two wolf pups and a dire wolf mom, which they ended up drowning in the lake by Logan jumping on its back and pushing its head down in the water.((Note: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The party camps without incident and makes it to the ferryman who tries to talk them out of going to the island. The party goes to the island and immediately meets Elisande who acts as an informal tour guide. They talk with the second crazy man, and investigate the forest, where they find a hidden shrine underneath the island with gold bars that are old, a ceremonial dagger, and a damaged book written in draconian. The book is in Varatas' | + | |
- | + | ||
- | As they leave the shrine, they are attacked by a minor devil((A // | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The ferryman is still at large, and the second mad man is missing. There is still the impending attack by the ghost ship / dracolich looming soon. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Oh yeah, while Varatas is trancing, the other PCs discover a notebook written in draconic hidden under a rock in the mad man's hovel. They also found a vial of a special kind of poison.((Get the name from the adventure.)) | + | |
- | + | ||
- | I know at least one healing potion was spent, so make sure that was marked off. | + | |

- | + | ||
- | As they arrived, the ship // | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Varatas found in the tome from the island that there may be a Dragon Mask in the Phlan region. Varatas also found out from Ixas's journals that he was searching for books concerning powerful dragon relic in the region. His journal also seemed to indicate a schism in the cult of the dragon. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Party made it back, Lothar took the ring of evasion and attuned. Logan went whoring, Varatas went to the fancy baths where he locked wits with a high power merchant ((TODO: come up with name for this guy.)) Logan went to the Tymora temple and confessed his sins and his cured body parts, and that he will be more //Jerry Falwell// now. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The horses were returned safely to Doomguide Yovir; he seemed very interested in the dracolich statue as he thinks it (a) needs to be destroyed or used for less nefarious purposes, and (b) thinks he may be able to use it to save " | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Varatas spoke with Abel Burryd ((TODO: Get correct spelling for her name)) and she was quite grateful for the information and told Varatas that she would organize against the cult as well as to investigate the island. She said that she owes Varatas a strong favor. | + | |

- | + | ||
- | Varatas even manages to cast a suggestion spell on Logan but Logan succceeds on his save so Varatas thinks that Logan is telling the truth. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The lord sage talks about how some ancient tomes were forged and some where stolen, by Tibeem and Spurnik. He offers 50 gold for Spurnik and 100 gold per book returned, estimating another 4-6 books stolen. Tibeem was caught in their escape by the Black Fist Knights. | + | |
