A little bit of dropping in and out, but everyone was present for at least part of the session. The stone golem on the stairs was barely a speedbump for them at this point. The spectres in room 20 managed to get a few hits in from the walls with surprise and inflict some negative levels, but...

A full house for the first time in a while. The party headed down the massive spiral ramp into the depths of the prison again, cautious about what they might find. Heading through the reservoir and kitchen areas, things were much quieter than last time. The servants killed in the previous...

A particularly messy session, with 2 people out due to festivities, one absent for half the session due to technical problems, and one player quitting due to work commitments after being one of the more frequently absent ones in the previous month. Despite that, we did still make some progress...

Our sparsest session yet, with two out of seven busy with festivities and a third down due to medical emergency, leaving just four players present. This didn't seem to slow them down initially, with the flesh golems in room seven falling within a single round, although the final one did actually...

All but one turned up again for another three hours that were heavy on combat and light on roleplaying. They managed to finish off the fleeing illithid before it could do anything else and get everyone through the portcullis without smashing it, but as the githyanki had cast haste on most of the...

All but one here again, as is becoming almost standard. Having cleared the area, the group had the time to rest without any wandering monsters coming along. Most of the party interrogated the grimlock captives while the kobolds once again wandered off in search of extracurricular treasure. The...

Only 5 out of 7 this time, and it's looking pretty likely that there will be more frequent absences in general over the holiday period. Although the number of enemies was going down fairly quickly at this point, there were still enough to keep them busy for most of the session. Our Feral Binder...

A little less punctual this week, but eventually all but one turned up. This was another one where the battle was so huge it continued the whole session. The Grimlocks continued to fall while doing moderate damage, but our sneakier players noticed that they were using their positions to allow...

A punctual full house this week. The Skum were easy meat for the party and they resumed the exploration of the mines. Several more rooms of active but currently unoccupied mine later, they found the shaft to the upper levels. Unfortunately, the lift was currently raised so a couple of the flyers...

Another good turnout with all but one showing up on time. The first hour of the session continued the combat from last time, slaughtering through the svirfneblin until only two out of the 50-odd villagers remained alive, which they stabilised and tied up for later. This is where things get...

First time in a while every single player was present. I actually got to do a decent amount of prep this time, so while the core of this underdark area is based on Thunder Under Needlespire, the multiple unmapped tunnels leading off that map now connect to other adventures or Maps of Mystery...

Once again all but one turned up punctually. The group finally finished off the big fight on the back of the Kadtanach this week. The big bad almost fell to the priestesses whip, but managed to teleport away after delivering one final cryptic quip to become a recurring antagonist. They trained...

All but one ( but a different one this week) kept up the massive battle with the Kadtanach and its handlers, filling another 3 hours with non-stop action. They continued to mow through the regular gnolls like wheat, but struggled a bit with the gargoyle's DR until two of them flanked it and set...

All but one turned up punctually again, sustaining the run. The stealthy approach they managed last time failed almost immediately, as they blundered into one of the areas trapped with Evard's black tentacles. Fortunately, they were more than a match for the regular gnolls, spending the next...

2 people apologised for their absence in advance this time thanks to Canadian thanksgiving, demonstrating all that reputation for niceness is definitely repressing something, but the other 4 turned up punctually and managed to carry the session. Even without the heaviest hitter using all his...

My turn to let everybody down as my main computer died overnight. Ordered a new one, but it'll take several days to arrive and in the meantime this old backup doesn't have nearly enough power to run roll20 without choking, plus my notes were on the other one. Hopefully they won't hold that...

One absence this week, but they apologised well in advance and the other 5 turned up on time so the game once again went ahead fairly smoothly. Having got through the exposition, the team headed straight for mount Arreis where the werewolves were rumoured to be imprisoned. A distinct lack of...

Still managing a stable party where everyone turns up on time, which is very gratifying. The party split up, with some of them going down the tunnel leading to the valley from the outside, while two of the flyers watched from above. The feral human was not the best choice for a negotiator and...

Another pretty good session. The player of the Duthka'gith dropped out due to work changing their schedule, but with the 4 established players plus a couple of new ones turning up on time it still seems like we have a pretty decent party. They made short work of the big boss, collected all the...

Looks like we've managed to bounce back this time. One player cancelled in advance, but the other 4 showed up on time and put in a full 3 hours play, doing a bit of backtracking to clear out the rooms missed earlier, and then getting all the way to the room just before the final boss before...
