It provided 32 lbs. of food that lasted them a few days. This was the only encounter of the day.Day 4: They crossed a rope bridge over a 40 food wide and 50 food deep chasm. Eight quaggoth spore servants watched them clinging to the chasm walls. They ambushed the spore servants slaying all eight. Karzak nearly fell. They were concerned the quaggoth were servants of the drow tracking them. They wanted to eliminate any possibility of the quaggoth providing intelligence to the pursuing drow. Once they found the quaggoth were spore servants, they weren't sure what that portended. Jimjar won 3 gold from Eraxis betting that Jharzzle could finish off a wounded quaggoth with his blade. Jimjar could no longer suppress his gambling addiction and started making random bets during the quaggoth battle because he had a hot hand with the hand crossbow. Jharzzle took none of his bets afraid the deep gnome would win.Day 5: A tremor caused a rockfall. The party was pelted with rocks. It did more damage than the eight quaggoth. The sorcerer missed three saves and fell. He had to be dragged out of the debris. The bard and warlock/paladin almost fell. Most of the party took substantial damage with the lucky exception of Stool and Buppido. Three DC 12 Dexterity saves with each failure doing 3d6 damage is pretty nasty. I raised the CR on this hazard from 2 to 5. I felt the healing resources used to recover were substantial. If this had been paired with a creature encounter, it would have been a deadly encounter easily. Karzak murdered Shuushar for "not pulling his weight" in fights. He butchered him while the kuo-toa was injured following the rockfall. Buppido urged him on. Jimjar doesn't want Karzak anywhere near him. He thinks he's a murderous psychopath half-orc. The session ended with the first half of Day 5. DM Notes: The step-by-step travel tool I wrote simplified and quickened the handling of travel. It works exactly as I expected it to work encapsulating all the relevant travel rules into one easy to follow single page step-by-step guide.</blockquote>
