[QUOTE="Older Beholder, post: 9235116, member: 6813585"] Last night we continued a wuxia themed 5E campaign that's been running for a couple of years now. We've been conscripted into a war that's broken out across the land between multiple provinces. With a few hundred men at our command we have been laying siege to a castle for the last couple of sessions. Previously we'd killed a Slaad (death or grey, I'm not sure which), 3 captains along with lots of troops. This session we were clearing out the last few buildings and towers we hadn't got to yet, in search of the ruling Duke. Eventually we found a system of underground chambers that took us to the man we were looking for, but not before we came face to face with a beholder guarding the final door. I've never fought a beholder in 5E, so that was a lot of fun. Thankfully we were all lucky with our saves and made it through. We found the Duke on his death bed having ingested poison just before we arrived. As we were deciding what to do with the enemy soldiers we'd captured, a unit of men (we believe to be on our side) turned up and demanded sanctuary, reporting that a much larger opposing army was heading our way. So we left on the cliffhanger that we'll probably have to defend the castle we just captured. A really fun session that saw us reach level 12. [/QUOTE]
