Shalosha's "offer" was, obviously, met very poorly, and the Shahalesti contingent was practically shouted out of the room... though not before Shalosha offered her own, softer stance on the matter, expressing what felt like genuine concern for the war effort. She promised to make herself...

With a full day at their disposal, the crew heads into the swamp, stopping briefly to speak with a small crew of goblins, setting up an outpost at the edge of the swamplands. While they had no special knowledge of musical instruments, after being asked about creatures in the swamp, they...

I should also point out that, due to a slip of the tongue when trying to describe Lee Sidoneth as a Hydromancer, and the Harbormaster of Seaquen... he's now become known as the Harbormancer. Which is going to be hilarious when the chickens come home to roost at the end of the chapter. :ROFLMAO:

As the heroes leave Torrent's temple, and debate their next moves, they find a man staring at them curiously. Explaining, with a degree of confusion on his face, that they were sought after by a woman in town, they thanked him for the notice, and entreated him to do as she asked, delivering a...

Meeting with Inspector Stover Delft in the morning, the truth becomes readily apparent: The investigative force is comprised of one overworked man, trying to solve a cold case. As the party reiterates their willingness to help, he entreats them to investigate other possible leads, rather than...

I wasn't prepared for them to try and bait out the kidnappers, so in a pinch, I decided that South Harbor had to have one lawman who was still trying to solve those problems (despite being grossly understaffed), and had them meet HIM instead. Then, when they asked for a name, I panicked, and...

The next day is pretty straightforward... the bard heads off to perform the play, along with attempting a bit of espionage (just what is Sheena Larkins up to, anyway?). Despite a shaky performance by the production's star, Giorgio, the bard's performance helps to even it out, and the crew does...

On their way out of the Sour Lake Swamp, the team notices several capsized boats, and recall that there is a tribe of territorial goblins living in the southern areas of the swamp. As they veer north, they're interrupted by a Shahalesti scouting unit, who claim to be screening for hostile...

Working specifically off of the canon timeline... at 28 years BC (Before Campaign), the old Order of the Aquiline Cross was basically dead and gone, or at best, deep in hiding. The new Order of the Aquiline Cross didn't begin forming until about 10 years BC. Rhuarc has some curious...

Is Heat Metal ever not a horrifying spell? :ROFLMAO: And for the record, I hope your monk chose to name his fighting style the North Wind style, just to thumb his nose at the pretentious east/west wind monks of Ostalin.

Journeying south through Lady Namin's lands, the team is endlessly herded south, constantly pressed by royal knights that they are welcome to travel THROUGH, but not STAY IN, these lands. Rather than detour into Lord Iz' terrain, though, they stay on the Prince's Way, gathering tidbits of...

At a loss after being turned out from Paradim Dogwood's home, the team decides to spend the next few days dealing with some minor local issues, before the start of the performances at the Wayfarer Theater. Some studies at the Lyceum provide useful in gaining knowledge to better navigate the...

I recently remade the Dassen regional map in a form that would print out better for in-person gaming, that also includes some more cities (many that I made up) and regional territories...

Hmm... the venn diagram intersection of "heavy" & "non-complicated" weapons is only slightly smaller than "two handed" & "not complicated..." it only adds the Shortbow and Greatclub to the existing list of Glaive/Halberd (100% identical, so why bother having both in the PHB?), Greataxe...

Yes... Papuvin assured them that it would be best in the hands of those who saved the forest. The Paladin reluctantly decided to take it, as he's the only one of the group that can really make skilled use of martial weapons. I did decide to make a slight change, that it can only transform into...

Kazyk's sudden arrival leaves the party with a painful choice... give up the intelligence, or risk their lives fighting this devil, while their resources are already badly depleted? The rogue decides, however, that inaction is the worst possible decision, and looses an arrow at the devil...

As the clan leaves the Wayfarer's Guild, they notice the same investigation into the mysterious body that had washed ashore. After convincing the city guard (and the Lyceum investigator) to let them see it, they noticed the strangely mixed-race body was apparently strangled, not drowned, and...

That one also gives you a nice angle on the "good people doing bad things" trope... how much did the parents know about the results of their work? Are they willing to betray their benefactors again, at great personal risk? Do they even know their child is not dead? Alternately, if they DO...
