Message: <blockquote data-quote="aartvb" data-source="post: 9487955" data-attributes="member: 7035557">A few weeks ago, I started a thread on my WotBS campaign. It was fun for me to 'relive' those sessions, so I decided to do the same with my Zeitgeist campaign! We started this campaign almost 3 years ago, so there are a lot of sessions to cover until I catch up to where we currently are. But we are still having fun in this campaign! (even though only 2 players - apart from me - are the same since the start of the adventure (and only 1 PC)) I wrote all of the notes mostly myself, so this time it's my perspective, not the players perspective. But the notes are also shared with the players, so it contains only information that came up during the session.The party consisted of:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Charles Butterworth the Third, a.k.a. Trip. Male halfling fighter gunsmith.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Galarin. Male deva/human wizard yerasol veteran.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Zuna. Female kalashtar druid spirit medium.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Odo. Non-binary human rogue martial scientist (I am not sure about this race, class and theme because this player unfortunately left after a few sessions).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Frostbeard. Female dwarf cleric eschatologist.</li> </ul>Session 1 (17-11-2021): Steam, Secrets, and Sabotage500 A.O.V., spring, day 6King Aodhan, ruler of Risur, arrives in the capital city of Flint to inaugurate Risur’s first fully steam-powered ship, the Royal Naval Ship (R.N.S.) Coaltongue. The group is responsible for the security on behalf of the Royal Homeland Constabulary (R.H.C.), under the command of their superior, Assistant Chief Inspector Stover Delft.They are aware of four potential threats:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Dockers, angry about their poor treatment.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Primalists (followers of the ancient druidic faith), upset by the rise of new industry.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Followers of the fey terrorist Gale.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">War veterans, who despise the designer of the ship because he is a tiefling.</li> </ol>The group successfully apprehends three Dockers who were planning to cause disturbances.The group is approached by Thames Grimsley, leader of a Dockers guild. He informs them that Dockers are working under terrible conditions in factories and warns of an upcoming uprising. He asks if they can put in a good word with the City Governor.Galarin takes him to let him speak with the Governor.On the ship, the group meets several key figures:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Principal Minister Harkover Lee, the king's personal bodyguard.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Geoff Massarde, the designer of the ship.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Captain Rutger Smith, captain of the ship R.N.S. Impossible.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Benedict Pemberton, an eccentric and distinguished industrialist (who removes a loose thread from Zuna’s clothing).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Duchess Ethelyn of Shale, the king's sister, who disapproves of the new industry.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Her elven handmaiden, Sokana Rell.</li> </ul>The group is given a tour of the ship. Odo arranges a quiet room for the Duchess. When the group goes to fetch her for the king’s speech, she is missing. Sokana runs off, and a halfling attacks Galarin.</blockquote>
