[QUOTE="Boendal2, post: 7811174, member: 7015844"] [B][U]3rd session:[/U][/B] Very short session, as all of us were busy in real life: [B]Day 7[/B] Nothing happened during the day In the evening Ront pushed Stool and complained about the myconid not helping the party. Eeria was close to fighting Ront when the group decided to make an arm wrestling tournament to blow off some steam. Eeria won with 2 victories. (Veldyn didn’t really participate but gave himself 2 points for defeating Stool two times, so there was kind of a draw) Eeria started carving Stools image in her axe handle. Thar’den asked Turvy & Topsy to teach him some words in undercommon. [B]Day 8[/B] Nothing happened during the day. The party decided to make camp in a small cave with a huge zurkhwood in the middle. Eeria cut down the zurkhwood and started carving a small statue of Jimjar. During the last watch of the night Veldyn heard some voices from a tunnel approaching the cave and went to check it out. He saw 6 duergar approaching and started to wake people up (last second). A lengthy battle followed, during which Vanya was nearly killed while trying to help Turvy: two attacks of opportunity brought her down with one automatic failed death saving throw. Thar’den pushed through and gave her a health potion just in time. The last duergar standing tried to flee, Vanya and Thar’den chased him, but lost sight after approx. 10 rounds. [B]GM notes:[/B] I like the idea of Eeria decorating her axe handle. Fits her character (background) very well. If she proceeds to do so I might give her +1 on the axe after a few successful skill checks. Vanya was reduced to -5HP by an attack of opportunity. A second attack of opportunity that was triggered at the same time hit her, so I told the player to mark of one failed saving throw immediately. I later looked up the rules – it should have been two (any damage while unconscious is a critical hit, therefore two failed death saving throws). I have to remember that rule for next time. Thar’den was there within a round, so it didn’t matter, but would have been way more dramatic. Thar’den learns three words in undercommon per night. The player started writing a list with the words learned. [U]Night watch (for now):[/U] 1. Vanya/Eeria/Stool/Ebert; 2. Thar’den/Turvy/Topsy; 3. Derendil/Eldeth; 4. Buppido/Sarith/Shuushar; 5. Sarith/Veldyn/Ront [U]Marching order (for now):[/U] Sarith, Veldyn, Vanya, Eeria/Stool/Ebert, Ront, Derendil, Turvy/Topsy, Shuushar, Eldeth, Buppido, Thar’den [/QUOTE]
