Session 239, Part Two Greenteeth It was up to Uriel to guide the others through the miasma. Only he had the arcane mastery, insight and perception to penetrate this lightless, empty maze. On top of fighting off the bewildering effect of the miasma, he needed to weave the fate of many of his...

Session 239, Part One Battle in the Belly of the Whale As the darkness enveloped them, they became aware of a deleterious miasma. Not a gas or a poison, something more akin to the necrotic energies of the Bleak Gate or Nem. While they might be strong enough to resist it, the fey refugees and...

Congratulations! 🥳 Jealous of your map. Worth the investment in time for later in the campaign. I'm really lazy. My players have been flying around in the Coaltongue for almost a year now, and I haven't even looked at, let alone drawn a map of the ship since adventure #1.

Session 238, Part Four Party Boat It was now time to cross the vast empty space between the southern and northern half of the Gyre. Gupta was gratified to hear that their first port of call would be Ascetia. She had waited a long time since the sweeping beam of the lighthouse caught her eye...

Not an Orlando Bloom fan. Can’t say I’m interested. Now a Zeitgeist series I could go for!

Session 238, Part Three The Fermented Peaks And so to Dunkelweiss, where the rivers flowed with beer. Here on Dunkelweiss (and therefore on any world to which it was linked) alcohol was good for you. It produced the same intoxicating effect as usual, but did no damage to long-term health...

And, yes, it was.

I feel like this thread has turned into an existential version of that joke. Let’s put it this way: the scene went on long enough, and so has this line of questioning. :eek:

You just say it. Repeatedly. That’s it. Simples!

Session 238, Part Two The Salt Wastes Amrou was so vast that even in the Gyre it took up more space than any other plane. Exploring felt redundant; there were no landmarks, just blinding white salt as far as the eye could see. They waited for Obliatas to dip in the sky before they touched...

Yes, that’s the general idea.

He's A okay. Perfectly normal run of absence (for him). Demanding job, etc. What we always try to do is use an absence as a means to tell part of the story which otherwise couldn't be told. Rumdoom giving the others the cold shoulder is just a part of that story. (I recently had every player...

Session 238, Part One The Lair of Discontent Before they touched down on Wilanir, Rumdoom sent one of his entourage to find out what had happened on the worlds the unit had recently visited. Since Mavisha he had declined to participate in each exploration, saying he would remain behind to...

Me too. Never even considered it.

The fact that Risur is relying on Brakken suggests to me that they either don’t have an Embassy, or that the Bruse has sidelined them; or that the Ambassador is useless.

Not yet, no. I anticipate the issue will be raised in Adventure #13 when Nicodemus gloats that he has won the moral argument. I doubt they’ll take the Rejection option, though. Untried, untested. They also have a lot of attachment to Av and, hell, choosing new planes will be fun!

Possible in what sense?

DM's Notes We didn't run a full combat on Apet. They've fought the Golden Legion a lot already, and are about the fight even more of them pretty soon. More importantly, this small group would have been a pushover for the PCs even if they hadn't got the drop on them. So I told them they had...

I thought at first this must be some sort of medical condition.

Only Uru stands for the status quo. (In the same counter-inituative manner, he supports the Clergy in their ongoing war with the eladrin.) Everyone else is up for tweaking things as best they can, to which end they are visiting every plane. Metaphysical anarchy is not on the cards, unless you...
