This looks fantastic! I also sized up the theater, but I just enlarged the original map like a chump.

Because we are taking a break after this next session, I haven't really been reading ahead as much as I have been with other modules. I also just found out that apparently at least one player, maybe two, wants to change their characters, so we'll see how that affects things. I've been keeping...

Session 46: Banquet of the Mad King The party enters the banquet halls, and are seated behind Dashgoban and Timor as their bodyguards. appetizers, hors d'oeuvres, and wine are shared in abundance. Aripose is able to intercept Gallo's glass before it reaches him, and gives him the antitoxin...

Session 43: The Sphinx Flies the Coop The party continues to battle, as Thravanvost rises into the air aboard Nashara's back. As battle goes on below, Aripos bloodies Thravanvost, who lets loose an empowered fireball. However, just as he casts it, Gruz counterspells him, leaving him fizzled...

Session 42 The party scouts out the area where Thravanvost is keeping his tent. After ascertaining his guards and sphinx, they come up with a plan for Gruz and Corban to act like drunk soldiers who are fighting, and for Mishka, Eluriah, and Aripose to sneak into the tent from the back. The...

Sessions 40 & 41 I missed a session recap, and then went on vacation, and then helped my brother move halfway across the country. So this recap is going to be a little basic! The party arrives at the Pitchwood, and speaks with the mayor of Pitchburg. They discover that pitchlings, fae...

Unfortunately, my player's patron is a completely homebrew (by the player) Fey Lady of the Moon. I might end up tying her to the Tidereaver Kraken, due to the connection between the moon and shapeshifting, but I haven't quite figured that out yet.

Session 39: To Stop a War Flying north, the party flies over Dassen, into the duchy of Nasham. As they approach Gallo’s Fend, they are escorted in by griffon knights, and led to the entrance of the city. There, they are met by Michael Gallo, the handsome son of Duke Gallo. With him is Garret...

Session 38: Breakout As Gruz is pulled away, the others try and see what was done to Hethal, but can’t discover anything. They brainstorm several plans to escape, but eventually decide to wait until Gruz returns. Aripose also sneaks out again to follow the sound of dripping water, and finds...

Alright, I have a question to get ready for before my session today. I'm mostly asking because it might add a few questions I have when interrogating the PCs

I'm glad! I started doing this because I found other peoples' recaps on here useful, so I figured I would give it a shot.

Session 37: Steppengard Prison Blues The party is thrown in prison below Castle Steppengard. All of the mages, including Gruz, are shackled with fused gauntlets, and gagged with a bit that disrupts their tongue. Gruz and Mishka were knocked out and thrown in a cell together. Eluriah and Aripose...

Session 36: To Speak with a King The party awakes the next day, and make their way to the castle. The castle is filled with a jumble of diplomats, farmers, and merchants, all here to have audience with the king after his time grieving. Balan goes off to get their petition in, and the party...

I meant to mention when I saw your AP post. I noticed our "Balan" and also Mishka's player is using the Half-Orc woman portrait as well!

Also, in the aftermath of the session, while chatting, I came up with this abomination.

Session 35: Dasseni Diplomacy The next morning, Balan gathers the party in the common room, and lays out what he knows. “I’ve found where the proxies for each of the duchies are staying, but time is even shorter than I anticipated. Apparently, King Steppengard intends to open court tomorrow...

It is mechanical in that it rules out Raise Dead as a solution to the problem. Dassen and the players don't have the levels to cast Resurrection.
