“A Moonlight Sonata” - 8/21/2023 The trio of hunters had set camp, deep in the forest many leagues from Oakhurst. It had been a good day, as the three found and shot a twelve-point hart, which was now dressed and hung to dry in the cold night air. Tomorrow, they would strap their prize to the...

Back to Cattbron - 8/21/2023 The clearing was now empty of the fiend Teiazaam, but the two ‘young’ hags that had effectively replaced her cackled with glee. Twisted Mirth and the pair opened their arms and embraced in the circle, now bound with smoke from what was once my blood. As they did so...

Journal of The Folk, Eonic Cycle 21, Lesser Cycle 201, Generation 8, Feasting quarter, 32nd Lunar. <Traslated from Draconic> Ss’Thak regarded the corpse with unease. Sed’rine were considered ‘unclean, and the anathema as the rottenest and foul of the lot. It spoke truth of the ritual, the...

Keys to knowledge and regret - 7/25/2023 The hag chortled as she watched me on my knees dry heaving. But despite the pure evil next to me, I felt that somehow this would all end well. That our regrets would be minimal, and the damage done to our souls would be minor. It had to…this wasn’t some...

Journal of The Folk, Eonic Cycle 21, Lesser Cycle 201, Generation 8, Feasting quarter, 24th Lunar. <Translated from Draconic> Ss’thak sat outside the ruins of the tower, watching as Corpse-that-Bosses walked away. Great truths have been found. Great magics have been found to conceal the truth...

Twisted Mirth…we have come to bargain. - 6/15/2023 Twisted Mirth was chortling in the most sinister way, as she moved around the cave, her fingers searching for items scattered amongst what I would have called charitably, junk. The hag took out a black iron whistle and blew on it, but...

You know...I like hags as villans. But I still feel inadequate compared to a certain person's description of yugoloth society.

Leverage - 5/11/2023 It wasn’t long before we reached the cleft in the hillside, where Twisted Mirth’s cave sat. The greens and purple flames within spilled out from the cave in the hillside, and into shadows that danced on the floor the gorge. Flanking the cave were two bored banderhobbs, both...

Journal of The Folk, Eonic Cycle 21, Lesser Cycle 201, Generation 8, Hunting quarter, 28th Lunar. <Translated from Draconic> Finished story found in market in peace. Must find new books. Tomorrow must train using Lightfoot sword. Strange object in ways. Only use is combat. While Rockman axe...

The Raven Says… - 4/15/2023 The journey back to the hag’s lair seemed to crawl. There wasn’t any new snow or ice, and the travel wasn’t really more arduous than before. But my thoughts were racing on what I now had in my possession; power. Immortals always held the cards for everything a...

Well no one is paying me for clarity.... ...wait a sec...

Kery's Horror - 3/12/2023 The room had been used for many purposes. Once in the past, it probably housed acolytes to the evil shrine nearby before the inhabitants lost their lives to the army that came to purge the temple of their filth. After that, it became a den to bugbears who probably...

Thy will be done - 03/12/2023 (This section took a lot longer to edit and write than normal. Apologies) I hung there in the construct, shocked. The voice I heard was deep and articulate. The type of voice you want to hear when someone is telling a story you want to lose yourself in. It was a...

Tears in the Dust - 1/16/2023 Keryasa was in a furious state as she ran in the large hall way. It was filled with detritus of furnishings, a broken table here, a smashed chair there. The walls had dusty lumps of beast heads, now moldering into dust. Kery’s side already hurt from the girl...

True Lies that are Told “Right now, we need to rest,” Rosa protested. “Adrissa almost lost her head, Myrai almost lost everything else. Everyone needs a night’s rest.” “The remains of the keep should be sufficient to protect us for an evening,” The Blade said. “But what are the odds of new...

Hag never were a part of Myrai's problem spacel, although the stories of Ravel Puzzlewell are known to her. But they keep popping up in a lot of my campaigns, played or written. Arnara had a more forceful interaction, and its possible her cousin Lyanna has more to bargain with there.

This is from Temple of Elemental Evil, a long running campaign that went through a number of cast revisions. But Keryasa was the consistent rogue for the party; one with a bit of hunger and a bit of guilt stored up inside. But that's nothing compared to her peers. The Legend of the Black...

Two Gambits - 12/25/2022 My heart pounded in terror, as I stood there, unable to move. Not that my torn-up leg would let me anyway, but where could I flee to? She was larger, stronger, faster and the tanar’ri tore apart my companions with ease and was now going to apply her undivided attention...

The Coils of Death - 11/14/2022 The towering fiend lunged at me, eyes aflame with malicious glee as they raised a pair of blades overhead. The pair whistled as they cut the air and I attempted to roll out of the way. The first blade sank deep into the ground, as I rolled to my left. But too...

And not to be rude, thanks on the well wishing for the neck. this week we get to make a call on surgery. I'm trying to positive about avoiding it, but we shall see. Sub-Optimal is the understatement though. Losing strengh in the hand and arm is alarming to say the least.
