The team attempts to recruit some sailors to help them repair and salvage the ship, but on short notice, they can't find skilled labor that's willing to undertake the journey. Together, they travel to the stranded ship, approaching carefully from the shoreline. Mounting the deck, they are...

In the aftermath of the battle on deck, the wayfarers hastily maneuver the ship back to shore to offload the numerous influential people on board. Sheena Larkins is shocked at Giorgio's apparent treachery, and vows to get to the bottom of it quickly. A quick inspection of the rowboat moored to...

As most of the team reacts to the strange departure of Giorgio from the theater, the bard finds Hawkins Dorian, clutching at a deep, bleeding chest wound. Choking out that "the control ring" was taken, he quickly puts two and two together, understanding that they were presumably about to...

News begins to spread of Ragesia's continued spread across the world, while more local matters turn to an increase of attacks by the goblins against refugees trying to navigate the Sour Lake swamp. In addition, the party learns of another refugee ship limping into South Harbor after an attack...

I'm trying to put together a coherent timeline of what happened to Trilla (and her mother Syana) in the decades leading up to the campaign. There are some gaps that I'm not really clear on, and I feel like I need to have those details secure... mainly because my parties are starting to learn...

I was wondering if there was an intentional bracketing of the story or not. I wasn't sure if it was 3 acts, each with 4 chapters, or 4 acts, each with three, or something else entirely. I almost see it as four varable-length arcs: Chapters 1-4 are, as you discussed, all about establishing the...

I thought I'd rebuild the Wayfarer's Theater map a bit, to make the actual theater seem more expansive (notably adding a lobby, and a backstage area), and create a bit more deck area to play with. The explosive barrels are still on deck, but now as a token that I can remove as they're used...

Due to some scheduling issues, this game is having a brief hiatus of a few weeks... my live game will probably overtake them around the end of this chapter!

The following days were a whirlwind of negotiations with the refugee camps, intermixed with some personal endeavors, and chance encounters with unusual people. The bard spent quite a bit of time at the Wayfarer's Guild, preparing for the upcoming production of The Spectacular Trials of Toteth...

The last two days are something of a blur, as everyone heads off to tackle goals of their own. The bard performs at the Wayfarer's Guild, where he has a rather uncomfortable meeting with Sheena Larkins (and accidentally reveals knowledge that a Teleportation Beacon has been implemented...

As the crew wakes in South Harbor, they start some investigations into the pattern of missing people there. They discover little actionable intel: the victims all seemed to be young, healthy, and able bodied, of no particular race or gender trend. While the publicised disappearances were all...

ROGUE: I think you've already got some great setups in place to be paid off in Chapter 7. CLERIC: A Dasseni native might've had some great tie-ins in chapter 4. You might connect the god of travels to the Wayfarer's Guild. Conversely, that deity could be one that aids the party in planar...

If you like the text, here's an image/handout version...

This might be awfully trite, but I tried to make a short rhyming poem that featured not only the code, but hints at the dangers at every point. The positions of the control rod are the capitalized letters... you could just as easily make them a different color or something similiar. thus...

The code could be... well, encoded. A poem of sorts, where the first letter of each line represents the position the lever needs to be in? I could work on composing something after tonight's game...

With Nathan Lowduke subdued, the party spent the night to recover, then rented another wagon to get out of the city without anyone obviously noticing their captive. While the green dragon Naizelasa was not overly emotive to the party, she did thank them for their service, taking the egg that...

Rats in hand, the team travels to the Lyceum to see if they have any insight as to their strange, fiery nature. Speaking with a professor, they find that, while infused with a degree of elemental energy, they don't seem to have any traditional magical enchantments upon them. The fire rats were...

With Nathan Lowduke in one carriage with the party's bard, and the other cart momentarily disabled, the getaway "plan" is quickly put into motion. Then rapidly discarded when everyone discovered there was actually no established plan at all! When the other wagon was hastily repaired, a warning...
