[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 6124895, member: 16069"] [CENTER][SIZE="5"]Let's Play #2 Goodman Games DCC53 Sellswords of Punjar (Level 1)[/SIZE][/CENTER] Session 2. [CENTER][url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/8971728995/][img]http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3683/8971728995_49f169801f_c.jpg[/img][/url][/CENTER] Encounter #9 Area 1-14 Arthuro, and friends, in the Court of the Beggar King. [sblock=The Map] [CENTER][url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/8533055070/][img]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8506/8533055070_ddf03918fe_o.jpg[/img][/url] The Beggar King’s throne room is area 1-14 on the map.[/CENTER] [/sblock] Arthuro snarls and launches his dagger… The Bad Guys... 425 XP Level 1 Encounter. Human Tough Level 2 Brute x2 Human Rogue, Arthuro the Fence Level 4 Skirmisher [sblock=The Monster Manual] [CENTER][url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/8661402570/][img]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8118/8661402570_dc1ba27998_o.png[/img][/url] [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/8660302793/][img]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8119/8660302793_4ec53194ed_o.png[/img][/url][/CENTER] [/sblock] Which thuds in to the far wall, missing the previously bound and gagged young girl by inches, Riardon looks livid. His bow sings and Arthuro sprouts an arrow from his chest, the eladrin scowls at the fence who looks sheepish, and hurt. A critical hit by Riardon on Arthuro the Fence for 22 points of damage to start the fracas. Erais’s Lance of Faith likewise slams in to the fence, the Sunlord is equally displeased, the child could have been killed- Arthuro screams in agony. Kathra meantime scuttles back around the gaping pit and cuts off the first of Arthuro’s buddies- the toughs, the dwarf shows the human a thing or two about combat- she smashes the guy with her warhammer, it’s all the tough can do to avoid falling down the pit. Arthuro is suddenly, and finally, engulfed in flames- Tira’s Cursed Witchfire, the fence thumps on to his knees and then face-plants the floor, still burning- dead. The first tough swings hard at Kathra, she ducks just in time. The second rushes around the other side of the pit and slams his mace in to Erais, the Sunlord is badly winded- left gasping for air. Erais absorbs a critical hit for 19 points of damage. Riardon attempts to come to the rescue of Erais, alas his arrow flies high and wide. Erais fights back but doesn’t manage to land a blow- the human facing him is clearly adept in attack and defence. Kathra meantime slams her warhammer in to the other tough, moments later the guy is Cursed courtesy of Tira and hit by her Eldritch Blast- he’s seen enough, the tough flees, or else- tries to. Kathra smashes the human in the back, a fatal attack. The other tough, although now facing off against the entire party, fights on- although he fails to connect with Erais. Moments later the tough learns to regret his decision, he takes an arrow to his right arm, and then a grazing blow to his left thigh courtesy of Erais’ mace. And yet stubborn to the last, and even as the other adventurers unleash their fury, the tough decides to tough it out. Just to say behind my DMs Screen I usually just roll a D20- high number and the monster fights on, medium number and in this situation he does the sensible thing and surrenders, low number and he flees. This isn’t going to be a long fight- there’s no concern about grind, I’d rather just play it out. Obviously if I had something I wanted the bad guy to say then I’d surrender right now without the roll. Obviously I kept rolling high. Riardon fires another arrow wide, Erais lands another hit- although only a grazing blow which barely breaks the skin- Kathr and Tira are however now on hand, they make the tough pay. Kathra slams her warhammer in the guys back, moments later the Cursed human is hit by Tira’s Eldritch Blast- and is destroyed. 425 XP Level 1 Encounter. Human Tough Level 2 Brute x2 Human Rogue, Arthuro the Fence Level 4 Skirmisher Comment: And they guys have made it through the first level of the dungeon- the adventurers settle down to take an Extended Rest, after searching the bad guys and the throne room for money et al. They take the ladder away that leads up to the throne room after first clearing up below- getting rid of the bloody bodies. They then take it in turns to head into Fallcrest, to try to sell or indeed exchange some of the magic items they have found that are of no use to them. They're all also up to Level 2. Obviously this is not a campaign so I don’t mind a bit of ‘magic shop’, it’s also the end of the session- and the guys have played in Fallcrest before. Therefore we do a little bit of role-play, a bit of haggling here and there, visits to different vendors- playing one off against another, a few skill checks. And these are the results- [CENTER][url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/8972993542/][img]http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7443/8972993542_3b4ed7280f_o.png[/img][/url][/CENTER] Riardon swaps out the +1 Duelist Dagger (from Black Shet, the rogue in the rafters) and some money for a +1 Targeting Longbow.

The rescued young girl is taken to the appropriate authorities, hopefully her parents (if they're alive) can be found. During the adventurers time resting in the throne room they discover another concealed trapdoor in the floor of the chamber, with a rickety ladder heading down in to the huge chamber below. And so ends the second session of play. [/QUOTE]
