[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8064819, member: 20564"] My last session, over just a few minutes ago, was GREAT. Mostly because of what it means moving forward. We're playing in a Greek themed game set in the city-state of Vesta. We're all members of Athena's Legions, though we were basically A-Teamed by Zeus, but after we escaped we have proven our innocence to the Legions and are working as deniable secret forces. (But we're still wanted criminals.) Anyway, we're following a lead from an outside source (not the legion) that is brings us to the Bank/Crime Syndicate/Church of Apollo, where the Oracle of Apollo has been suborned long ago. Among the things we're trying to do is free a noble who is of the family that controls access to the Oracle that led a failed coup 20 years ago trying to realign it for the people. That she did with our commanding officer. Various things happen and our infiltration mission ends up a lot ... messier than we wanted. But we've gotten to where she's kept and all that's there is a mirror that's trying to suck us into it. Through various means we first find a way to bring the trapped to the surface to converse, and then the command word to release them. We release the PC who got trapped inside, and then the Lady who attempted the coup. She had been in there for 20 years, had no idea how much time had passed. Then, on a hunch, my Cleric calls out the name of our commanding officer who was the co-conspiritor on the coup. The DM suddenly gets a far-away look, you can see the wheels spinning. 10 seconds, 15, 20. Then on his face a decision made: Yes, our commander also steps out, having been imprisoned the last 20 years. BAM! Everything just altered, plotwise. Suddenly our commander, 2nd in charage of all of Athena's Legions, has gone from trustworth leader of the secret forces to an impostor who has lived the life for twenty years. We ended the session early, only took it to the point where we got him back to HQ. I don't blame the DM - I'd absolutely need time to work out this new direction and have it be satisfying. The intrigue of this is going to be sooooo great. Can't wait for what comes next. [/QUOTE]
