Jovik once again performs the ritual, and once again signals a clear (or at least silent) room. He opens the door quietly as you assume your now natural positions. This once-fine chamber has been destroyed. The bed is smashed, mattress torn apart, walls gouged as if by knives, chairs hacked...

Damaged Pride It only takes Kael a minute to make his way back to you. The washroom he ended up in downstairs was just north of the main room, and he soon found his bearings, dusted himself off, wiped a little blood from his lip, and set off back upstairs. He got a few slaps on the shoulders...

OOC: Too late - Kael is already lying on the floor groaning when he remembers that he could have, SHOULD HAVE, used his feather fall spell. Hey - maybe later I can throw you off a cliff ;)

The floor just falls away from below him, before Kael has time to react. The giant iron tub falls fast and hits hard. Kael follows, surrounded by a shower of broken wood and debris. He knows this is going to hurt, and then it does. OOC: 4hp falling damage to Kael A large cloud of dust rises...

Kael nods at Jokad, but asks for just a moment. "We need to just make sure that this place is cleared out. We don't want some kids stumbling onto a hidden artifact while playing 'dare'". He moves into the room, searching amongst the small cabinets for anything of interest. The place is empty of...

Washroom You move on, passing some of the rooms you have already explored, but still taking the time to at least throw the doors back and check that nothing has decided to reoccupy the place. At the end of the corridor you perform the usual ritual. Jovik moves forward, placing his ear to the...

I own the second edition and most of the supplements. I have read them, but not yet GM'ed a game. My view is that a campaign would be all about defeating Izrador. The fact that the game makes it sound so highly improbable that this could ever succeed is exactly why the players would want to try...

OOC: Who is going to stow the corpse? I can remind you when you get back to Sandpoint about it for burial, etc. OOC: Do you want to move on? There was nothing else of interest in the room.

The Child Jovik feels his fingers close around a loose bundle of rags. He pulls gently, but they are wedged or stuck on something. He grabs with his second hand and pulls forward. Part of the cloth bundle has become caught on a sharp rock or crevice in the chimney. Jovik works at it, before...

Jovik and Danth move into the room, searching. Kael casts his eyes around, while Jokad stands glowering at the door. Jovik feels strangely drawn towards the fireplace. He crouches and peers inside. A faint, cold breeze filters through from above, chilling his face. He can see nothing of the...

The front door opens easily to reveal the ramshackle, damp, and dusty interior. Jovik stabs his dagger towards the stairs. "Up!" he states. Nobody offers any resistance (at this point), and so the party ascend the stairs back to the first floor where they met Iesha. At the top of the stairs you...

The Return The walk back to the mansion is made is better spirits. The tiredness from the day before is gone, and Danth's healing magic has improved your aches and pains no-end. When at last, after a few hours of gentle trekking along the country lane, the mansion once again becomes visible...

OOC: Feel free to augment and then move on. I will sit back until you decide where to go after this: Sandpoint or the Mansion.

It is a welcome walk, welcome because it was quiet and uneventful. By the time you arrive at the Woldrack farm the sun is low in the sky, and your legs feel heavy. But you are alive, and the rain has held off, and you have thoughts of a warm meal ahead. Farmer Woldrack hails you some half a...

OOC: That farm where you helped them fend off the ghoul attack is not too far, and even closer is the one that was taken over by the ghouls (although it will stink of death). You could certainly reach either before dark.

Argh! Get them off me! OOC: Init order - Jokad (22), Danth(14), Jovik (10), Swarm (8), Kael (5) As the foul black swarm envelopes him Jokad's senses are overwhelmed by the caress of oily wings and stench of disease and rot. He manages to hold his gorge as he flails about madly trying to regain...

The Swarm Jovik leads the way back, closely followed by Danth. Kael is a little more relaxed, moving back with Mal, his back to the house as he edges towards the door, fumbling at his belt for one of his wands. Jokad brings up the rear, his sword twisting and writhing in his hands as if it...

Jokad shoves the front door open with his shoulder and strides out confidently (or at least looking confident). There are hundreds upon thousands of sickly looking ravens perched quietly across the entire area, covering every square foot of the ruins. These ravens are disturbingly silent and...

Stifling a chuckle at the seriousness of his companions, Jovik moves over to one of the thick paned glass windows and peers outside. The window is caked in a layer of dust and grime, and he has to swipe at it for a moment with his bloodied sleeve. He peers forward again. Outside he can see the...

Bitter Retreat It is a tough one to swallow, retreating now, but it is the right thing to do. Kael has just brushed with death, and knows it. Danth's power is almost drained, and with the house seemingly turned mad by the defeat of Aldern, or the burning of the mold, he is concerned that a lot...
