Magic Items Belt of Dwarven Kind. This brown belt is gem encrusted with a buckle made of polished granite. It never gets dirty.
I had a very strong group of seven Cosmo Helmite Cleric 6. Gouda wild magic barbarian 6. Slammer Rune knight 6. He who shall not be named Ranger 6. Helena Rogue 3 ranger 3. Witch Warlock 8. Thoeyna Cleric 7.
Thanks, Cosmo, for checking my math and monster attacks.
Witch a new member of the Cloaks of Mulmaster was told round up some adventurers and get his mission from Talon his sergeant. Talon states the dwarves of Earthspur mine have taken it over and are using King Lorn’s basilisk to stone any warrior sent to take the mine back. Lorn’s brother the Stone Dwarf has a final bout in the fighting arena of Black Sword and Bloody Boar tavern. The Stone Dwarf may have passwords to get into the mind.
The group split into two groups. The Thugs who will sign up for the opening act and the Sneakers who will try to sneak in and contact the Stone Dwarf. The Thugs face person is Cosmo who gets along with the Lady Owner Gethmedra. They chat briefly about cigarette before signing Gouda and Slammer up for the opening act with the boss and most of her staff distracted the Sneakers sneak into action. Only to get busted by the towel boy. While Witch and Helena are flirting badly with the Towel Boy Thoeyna just bribes him.
Towel Boy, “Oh I thought you were for something extra. Fasts of the Stone Dwarf are always welcome but they generally us the back stage stairs and not wandering through the arena.” Winking at Witch he takes to the Stone Dwarf.
Stone Dwarf sets his weights down, “Oh fans. I generally do autographs at 6 to 630 but since you have bribed the towel boy. I guess I can do a few autographs.” He goes to a stack of preprint autograph pictures and starts personalizing them. It takes a few moments before he gets the clue Thoeyna is here for information. Stoner had fallen out with his brother but his shrink has him making amends. So, if they would deliver this letter to his brother the king, he will give them each 1,000 GP on a printed return receipt.
Players, “WE love the new money system this season.”
The group starts for both bouts. Winning the 400GP for the first bout and helping win the final. During the final bout, Gouda recognizes Stoner has been roofie. They help finish the bout and Stoner takes control of Bloody Boar because he knows only the boss lady could have poisoned him. He rewards them each 500 gp.
Know a blizzard is coming, Witchiepoo and pals buy cold weather gear and head out to the mine. Listening to Gouda, Helena and Cosmos wear their boots as hats. All three gain three levels of exhaustion.
Gouda, “Oh sorry. I meant wear you hat on you head to keep your cool. HEY YOU DON’T have to yell and throw snow balls.
He who shall not be named, “Avalanche!”
Slammer, “Yetis”.
DM, “Why not both?”
After a brief combat the group is captured by the daughter of the King. The King is dying….
Witch, “DUE TO THE SCRIPT!”.
The king is dying. A medusa has taken over the mine and enslaved some of the dwarfs who did not escape. With this map you the party says the secret words they get sixty-four dollars and a nice prize from our sponsor. Um. Say secret words at correct location save the king.
Daughter, “it looks like they taking the mine carts down. The elevator would be smarter. Dad you didn’t offer them coffee which would eliminate the exhaustion conditions.”
King Lorn, “I did NOT see on page 13. Second column. Last sentence above Bhun’s Letter. They are a very strong group and Helena will mention my oops while I still in car driving home from the game.”
Gouda, Helena, and Cosmo enter the first mine cart. The other four enter the second cart.
Module. “YOU IGNORABLE PIG DOG. CAN’T you read. I said three per cart.”
DM, “I have a lighter!”
Module, “Never mine. Do what you want.”
Gouda and Slammer easy off the brakes and slowly slide into the mine and the chase music from Indiana Jones mine cart ride begins. Taking four rounds to fight off two bulette the group start yelling for brakes. Slammer slowly engages the breaks and coasts to stop in dressing mill near the office where.
Slammer, “what do I see. “
Gouda, “Here is the break you wanted Cosmos.” Cosmos looks at the break in her hand and closes her eyes as the first cart crashes through the barrier into the foundry.
Slammer, “What do they see.”
The mine carts have split the party. Gouda and her cheesy friends are prone in the foundry with five gargoyles. Slammer and his friends are surrounded by four gargoyles. Scary music comes from the office.
(Cosmo had rolled to placed the hidden location of the boss, their initiative and starting round. I tried to ignored the starting round).
Both groups can hear each other fighting but would be a round or two double moving to get to each other. The fight starts and only Helena beats the monsters’ initiatives. The first round no one is serious hurt and the dice love Cosmo who was only touched once during the combat. At the end of the first round Witch kicks open the office door.
Witch, “SURprise?”
Atia Scorvo Medusa, “Surprise! Is on you. Fly my nightmare. Squish him by two flesh golems.” She closes on Witch but does little damage.
Witch, “I just be closing the door. Sorry to interrupt your beauty nap. Avon is not…” With a total failure of a saving throw, she falls back and casts shatter on the office. (Note player was describing his action as I was reading the saving throw failure state. Witch should been stoned immediately but rule of cool and some damage to the monsters.)
Round four Slammer takes out one gargoyle but is stoned by Atia. Some of the other party members are only in the double digits due to various mass healing type spells. Helena drops the second gargoyle in the foundry.
DM to himself, “They know they can surrender right?”
The gargoyles put He who should not be name and others into the single digits.
DM looks at Skully, “They are going to fight to the death.”
Skully, “Don’t tell them They can surrender. I want my seven names.”
DM, “Guys, you know you can surrender right.”
Group, “we forgot.”
Medusa, “Surrender or be chips off the new block.”
The group surrenders. Twelve days later the Medusa enters the repaired office with a butter churn over her head.
Voice, “See Shaggy and Scooby, I told you the trap would work.”
Group, “Thank you. She would gotten away with it if wasn’t for you meddling kids.”
Fred, “Meddling. We getting paid your reward.”
The End.
Notes I changed the gold piece pay out to match the new Adventure League standards. The monsters numbers are from this module and DDEX 2-3.
