[QUOTE="Richards, post: 9327547, member: 508"] During last night's "Ghourmand Vale" session, the PCs: [LIST] [*]Headed out on a two-day journey to the rock quarry where a group of stone giants who are providing stone to the Vale for construction projects were late on their latest shipment, to see if everything was okay with them [*]Encountered a group of four unfamiliar stone giants (the PCs have already met the members of the tribe they were going to visit) in the forest a couple hours from the quarry, and were asked if they knew the way to the quarry, for this group of four were "emissaries of the shrine" seeking out nearby stone giant tribes [*]Professed not to know the location of the quarry, after the paladin detected these four were all evil [*]Attempted to bypass the stone giants by riding through the forest under the effects of a [i]haste[/i] spell (and the paladin was riding his celestial pegasus, so we would all be able to outrace the giants), with the intention of warning the stone giants at the quarry of these incoming strangers of an evil nature [*]Got caught up in some readied actions: one giant pulled a [i]fireball bead[/i] from a [i]necklace of fireballs[/i] he wore wrapped around his bracer and went to toss it at my human sorcerer as he rode past, only to have the elf archer's readied action to shoot him if he tried anything take effect first; as a result, he dropped the bead and it exploded at his feet, encompassing all four giants and none of the heroes [*]Got the giants penned in with the druid's [i]spike stones[/i] spell, but then one tossed a [i]rope of entanglement[/i] at her that she couldn't escape [*]Attacked the giants with the sorcerer's [i]chain lightning[/i] spells, the archer's arrows, the halfling rogue's [i]wand of burning hands[/i], and the paladin's dive-charge on his flying celestial pegasus [*]Discovered the "stone giants" weren't as they appeared when my sorcerer took slicing damage from a stone giant's greathammer; eventually saw through the [i]veil[/i] spell that they were two fire giants and two ogres [*]Killed the lot of them and looted the corpses, to find one wearing a magic gem that a hag covey could [i]scry[/i] through [*]Got the druid (who had tried escaping the magic rope by wildshaping into a garter snake with no effect) free of her entanglement by having my sorcerer [i]dimension door[/i] with her in tow but not the rope; the rope then became treasure for the halfling to use in future adventures [/LIST] Next session, we'll make it to the stone giant quarry and be told about an abandoned shrine that might be the one the fire giant was on about....
