Although the rest of their companions had been surprised by the sudden attack on Tuli, they saw the logic in it. Kain advised Rahnee on how to ensure Tuli would not rise again, by staking its heart - Rahnee used an arrow shaft for that - and destroying the body, with which Dermot assisted...

Shanni began the serious part of questioning the slaver by stating that they had a problem: their vampire ally wanted someone to keep, who might just be Pincer. The fact that the creature on the island was a vampire and that the adventurers were on its side seemed to stagger Pincer, who...

The five adventurers moved to launch the boat from shore, then somewhat awkwardly paddled the short distance to the slaver ship. Once they arrived and boarded the main deck, they saw by the bodies there would be no resistance. Descending to the cabins, they found more bodies and Tuli locked in...

After the group had reached their preliminary decision to take on the slavers, Rahnee decided to return aboveground, in order to more thoroughly scout the island and determine the full extent of the slaver presence. The others continued to refine their battle plans and Shanni was particularly...

By that point it was getting on towards late afternoon on Alturiak 30. Having finished his business on board ship, Aerikoth returned to shore and spoke briefly with Pincer, who informed him that the others had acquired a slave to use as bait and should be nearby. Aerikoth set off into the...

Some minutes after the wizard had left, the others thought they heard something again, in the dark. Shanni advised Darrow to keep any light source doused, in order not to frighten away whatever it was. The voice in the dark suddenly began speaking again, asking if the adventurers would help it...

After The Blind Man had been successfully beached near shore by the captain, Aerikoth came up on deck to observe the results. Rahnee decided to remain on board to try and investigate further on the ship, while the others debarked for the island. Aerikoth, Darrow, Shanni and Dermot were rowed the...

In order to pass the time, Dermot suggested a bit of storytelling, as both he and Shanni were interested about how the adventuring group known as “Helm’s Shadows” had originally got together. Aerikoth and Darrow took turns talking about their adventures, explaining how they had first joined the...

After The Blind Man got underway, the companions picked two of the available cabins, conversing among themselves about their situation prior to going to sleep. The ship kept on a steady course during the night and the companions were up around dawn on Alturiak 30. Shanni was the first to brave...

Slaver Isle Returning to the Vulture's Roost, Darrow, Shanni and Dermot ancily waited for their companions to arrive in the common room. Aerikoth descended and joined them first, his studies completed. A while later Rahnee entered, stamping the snow from her boots. She informed them that during...

The three – Darrow, Dermot and Shanni – then headed off the docks and toward the Council building, which they found closed for the evening. A passing mercenary pointed them in the direction of the bath house, which was just north of Bagra's Tavern, after Darrow mentioned he could use a bath...

The dwarf and the half-orc were gone for about an hour, leaving Aerikoth, Shanni and Dermot at the Vulture's Roost. On their return, Barzog happily accepted another round of ale from Darrow, who explained to the others that they had a meeting set with Barzog's "friends" at dusk, by the docks...

After discussing possible ways to get rid of Barzog after obtaining what information they could from him, the group exited the Muddy Ogre. Aerikoth headed directly for the Vulture's Roost, their agreed-upon meeting point, while the others took more indirect routes. Shanni said she wanted to...

As the crowd at the Rusty Cutlass ordered more drinks and started thinning out around the fight ring, the Scarlet Company members present came over to congratulate Darrow. Slipster thought the whole thing had been great, while the fighter Juril was obviously a little shocked by the event...

On Alturiak 28, the group split up after breakfast in order to spread the word about Darrow’s fight night at the Rusty Cutlass. Later, as the sun was setting, the four adventurers made their way back to the Vulture's Roost. Shanni was the last to arrive, joining the others in the common room...

While Darrow was looking forward to the fights, Shanni and Dermot were less happy with the way things had gone, as the need to do more favors further complicated the situation. Aerikoth reiterated his view that they could pursue the option of simply offering Helten the hundred gold. Shanni did...

Helten appeared to like the suggestion of having Barzog leave the city, especially when Dermot broached the idea of compensation. However, the half-orc proprietor pointed out that if the group did any "adventuring" in town with Barzog after his half-brother was released from jail, that could...

Once outside the Vulture's Roost, Darrow hailed a passing member of the city patrol and inquired about the jail, which the dwarf was informed was in the Eastern sector. After wandering in the general direction of the area, the group spied a gallows and deduced that the jailhouse should be near...

Starmantle Upon entering the Vulture's Roost, the group took a look around the slightly seedy inn’s interior. A harlot standing nearby immediately sized them up and approached, striking up a conversation. Shanni, perhaps not unexpectedly, reacted with visible disdain and Darrow with...

Below in the ship’s cabins, Errend was informed that he was now an official passenger and the former stowaway again thanked Darrow for his generosity. The four adventurers then briefly talked among themselves about their initial plans for Starmantle, before Shanni suggested they quiz Errend some...
