[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 9385759, member: 1210"] Last session was disappointingly short, with the pcs basically finishing a big fight that started the session before and calling it a night. They were crossing a jungle, near some bubbling hot mud pits, and a group of mudmen (converted from 2e) rose up to attack. After a couple of rounds, a chimera flew in, attracted by the noise; and a few rounds later, three girallons were also drawn in to the fight. My favorite part was when the hadozee druid polymorphed into a giant ape and pounded his chest to scare off the girallons (it worked!). The pcs are actually in the middle of an interesting quest, where they are gathering exotic gourmet ingredients and foodstuffs for a halfling lich named Yudo the Ghostmaster. Yudo has magically preserved his lips, tongue, and esophagus to enable him to continue to enjoy food and has replaced his teeth with stainless steel. When he eats or drinks, he chews and swallows, at which point the food in his mouth drops out the bottom of his torso. Because of this, his robes are always wet, and gross little bits of chewed up food are scattered all around his lair (and so are cockroaches and ants and the like). The pcs are doing this job in order to keep the ghost wagon, a haunted halfling war wagon with impressive magical travel capabilities but that tends to draw ghosts and other undead. Yudo created it and has shown that he has great influence over it; in return for fetching him a series of delicacies that he has never had, he will stop messing with the pcs, let them keep the wagon, and even tell them how to refuel it.
