Of Dragons and Princesses - 8 Pharast, 4718 - 9 Pharast, 4718 Six weeks later, once the snows had thawed enough to make the route into the Vale of Valtaerna passable, the Nessian Knot marched out at the head of the remains of their rag-tag army. The bugbear commander Shagoroth Night-mane looked...

INTERLUDE: They stood together in the tavern Lemmy had "liberated" in Sanctum. Lemmy, GrumbleJack, Roger, and Kat each raised a cup and toasted. Normally Kat was not invited to these get-togethers. The dwarf had no great love for, and did not hide his dislike of the Danister's, especially since...

The party dynamic just changed epically! We are about mid-way trough The Devil My Only Master, so they have been vamps for awhile, and it has been very entertaining. Challenging for me as well. What do you throw at PC's who are immune to mind-affects and most things that require FORT saves?? As...

10 Abadius, 4718 - 8 Pharast, 4718 - Dies The Fire The Nessian Knot, minus Dorian, returned to the upper level of the cathedral and to the massive wall of flames that sealed off the Holiest of Holies. Katarina, since she was fleetest of foot, took the thigh bone of Saint Angelo and approached...

10 Abadius, 4718 - Dannister Down "Come no further, serpents! Her judgement cometh, and that right soon!" The Ninth Knot stood just outside a chamber in the catacombs that was not unoccupied, as all of the other ossuaries had been. Instead, three priests of Iomedae and a half-dozen holy...

In current game time, our crew has started Book 5. They are currently 16th level, and there have been many changes, as will be seen soon in the story hour. The end of Tears of the Blessed opened up many new doors for our "heroes."

10 Abadius, 4718 - Ghost Martyrs A search of the quarters of the Emissary in White by Katarina turned up several exquisite gowns of gossamer and silk, along with jewelry wrought from fey amber. Hidden beneath the clothing, Kat also found a hand-written missive from someone named Brigit of the...

9 Abadius, 4718 - 10 Abadius, 4718 - The Cathedral of Iomedae Made Manifest "We're staying here for the night," Kelvin announced to the others. The companions were still recovering from their battle with the Master of Serenity and the oracle, Sambethe, while Dorian knelt over Grumblejack's...

He's probably talking about Jade Regent

Welcome back!! Let me know what you think of our new "heroes."

Labyrinth - 8 Abadius, 4718 - 9 Abadius, 4718 Beyond the hunting hall, the Ninth Knot found themselves at the entrance to a hedge maze. It was open to the sky and looked to be constructed of crude-cut field stones overgrown with moss, vines and flowers of a thousand sorts. There was something...

I want to say 12th.

The hounds were a fun battle. In real game time we are over halfway thru Book 4, and revelations are coming fast and heavy. By the end of Book 3, however, our " heroes" will undergo some very interesting developments

7 Abadius, 4718 - 8 Abadius, 4718 - The Garden of Serenity "We need to fall back!" Kelvin cried. He watched as Lemmy began plummeting towards the ground far below, his fly spell removed by the magic of the phoenix. The great bird let loose with a deafening shriek as it dove after the evil...

25 Kuthona, 4717 - 7 Abadius, 4718 - The Fury Of The Phoenix The battlefield was littered with dead, and everywhere could be heard the cries of the dying. The battle had been savage, as the bugbears were brutes with no regard for life, and the priests and holy warriors were fanatics who would...

Where the story hour currently stands, the players run the NPC's. This becomes unwieldy very quickly, not to mention several of the PC's also have cohorts. As you will soon see, this situation resolves itself in a very interesting way

INTERLUDE Dakota’s memory ​ Dakota sat in silence, her head bowed in prayer, reflecting on how she'd gotten to this point. The singular memory that kept returning her thoughts was of her father on his deathbed... She had been15 years old and sitting beside her father, just the two of them...

THE BATTLE OF SAINT'S BRIDGE 25 Kuthona, 4717 The Nessian Knot quickly regrouped on the roof of the watchtower and began making their way down one of the spiral stairwells to the interior of the fort. They only made it down one floor before they encountered resistance. Waiting for them in the...

HOW THE NESSIAN KNOT STOLE CHRISTMAS 20 Erastus, 4717 - 25 Kuthona, 4717 Kelvin spent more and more of his time in the company of Barnabus Thrane, picking the old man's brain and pumping him for ever more information about their mission. Thrane, for his part, relished the role of teacher and...

Izevel is just an ally at this point. Her long term role is yet to be determined.
