So would you like to start outside the cave or tied up inside? XD

Runes actually play a big part in this adventure. Feel free to link me to any UA you want to use. I'm willing to give seven a try. This campaign really stacks some "giant" odds against the players.

Aremus: You find various necklaces, made of fresh water shells, that would be of no use to the orcs. You take them and burn the mens' features to memory. Carolina: You guard the others as they go about digging, but no threat ever appears. Fistan & Tranio: The combination of strength and...

Carolina: You study the surroundings for few moments and determine that the coast is clear. No ambushes or traps around the bodies. Fistan: You are able to determine that the pendent depicts Asmodeus, a prominent god of the nine hells. Tranio: The three individuals in the road are dead. They...

Right now everyone is level 3. I believe you originally pitched a bard? We still do not have one of those.

Fistan & Tranio: The front door is unlocked and no harm comes from opening it. You are surprised to find the cottage untouched. Perhaps the runes on the door scared off the goblins? You quickly notice an unlocked chest that contains several items. The most striking is a golden pendant of a...

We'll just leave the character's debut in your hands. Have him hop in the story whenever you're ready.

No worries! I had a crazy week, so I made up a post today. Weekend responses welcome, but not required.

The party also found the two goblin loot sacks in the church. I'm not sure if anyone kept the contents. One sack contains three blocks of incense, a silver holy symbol shaped like a unicorn's head, and some stolen (and worthless) personal effects. The other sack holds three empty vials used to...

Dren: Together the two gemstones could fetch around 100 gold piece. The drop tastes very familiar as you drank many potions of heroism in your youth. Tranio: Spuds is indeed outside, sleeping in a pile of his namesake. He is grateful for the food, but shaken by the tragedy that has befallen...

His fate is unclear at the moment. Morak lead the villagers to the woods during the giants' siege. He is a dwarf though and should stick out among the mostly human population.

Bethany: Yours words strike fear into the riders. One woman standing against all six of them would be insanity, yet you seem so confident. They mutter some more to themselves, before turning the horses around and heading back outside. Carolina: The lock is simple and the door clicks open for...

Bethany: The men on the bridge mutter to each other restlessly. "Just let us in, lass. You really think one little girl could hold back six riders anyway," the bald warrior asks before breaking into a laugh. Carolina: The kitchen pantry has been looted by the goblins. The guest rooms (the...

Tranio's magic heals and awakens the previously injured woman. She is initially confused and terrified, but Xolkin manages to calm her down. Going off her foggy memory, it appears she was in one of the guest rooms upstairs when a boulder crashed through the roof. It took out her room's floor...

Fistan: Some of Xolkins questions, regarding Lady Nandar and ravens to Waterdeep, do seem a little more opportunistic. However, you are convinced there actually was a woman named Kella staying in the village and that he is very concerned for her safety. Tranio: You head for The Nighstone...

Fistan: You do not know the name, but you get a very clear look at the livery. The men wear black armor with yellow accents. At first glance, their sigil appears to be a black sword in front of a yellow flame. A closer look reveals that the symbol isn't a weapon, but a black winged snake...

Xolkin and his riders eagerly cross the drawbridge, only to be halted by the Dwarf and Death Cleric. They riders are skeptical of the cloud giant attack until Tranio points out the large boulders. Their doubt is replaced by shock and fear. "Attacking innocent villagers from the sky. Filthy...

That makes sense going forward. The hardest part with PBP so far has been the balancing act. Giving people a chance to react, but not waiting for total group consensus / undeeded agreement posts. Exploration too! I'm trying hard to give you things to explore without making the search of one...

For group decisions, such as lowering the drawbridge, should I create a poll?

Torem, clearly a man of little patience, scurries up the opposite guard tower without even consulting any of you "Who the hell is out there and what do you want," he bellows. The head rider lowers his hood and steers the horse a few steps forward. " My name is Xolkin Alassandar. My men and I...
