Message: <blockquote data-quote="Richards" data-source="post: 9401381" data-attributes="member: 508">In tonight's "Ghourmand Vale" session, the PCs:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Were asked to check out the local silver mine by the guy in charge of running it, as he saw the owner bring 10 dwarves in a week ago and hasn't seen them since; he thinks they're dead and he's next, as he was "invited" to the boss's personal vault by the boss and a wife he has all of a sudden</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Meanwhile, a local wizard my sorcerer knows was spending money freely at the local pub, buying drinks for everyone; a discussion with him revealed he'd just made a fortune selling a cubic gate to the dwarven mine boss</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Asked which planes the cubic gate connects to, found out it's the Material Plane, the Nine Hells, the Abyss, the Plane of Shadows, the Ethereal Plane, and the Elemental Plane of Earth; decided the boss's new "wife" is probably a succubus</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Went to visit the mine boss, bringing the worried dwarf along, but while the druid impersonated him with her "a thousand faces" ability, my sorcerer cast a veil spell on the rest of us, making us look like out-of-work dwarven miners (and a Rary's telepathic bond spell let the real dwarf feed lines to the druid, so she could answer as he would)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Met up with the "wife," the paladin sensed she was evil, and my sorcerer cast a touch of idiocy spell on his grackle familiar (veiled into looking like a miner's canary), who then delivered it via touch on what turned out to be a succubus (we were right!)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Slew the succubus, but not before she warned the four vrocks the next room over via telepathy</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Had 16 vrocks teleport into the entry cave, but when the druid dropped the ceiling on them via a rock to mud spell, the 12 that were really just mirror images popped out of existence</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Got a decent workout fighting 4 vrocks - two of them got to use their stunning screech (which took out 2 PCs one time and 3 the other), two exploded their spores all over the paladin and the rogue, but the demons were taken out by the archer's well-placed arrows, the paladin's holy sword (with which he critted twice), sneak attacks from the flanking rogue, a firestorm spell from the druid, and two maximized cone of cold spells cast by my sorcerer</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Found the dwarf mine owner almost dead (drained to near death by the succubus), and he admitted to offering up the 10 missing miners as sacrifices to bring the vrocks over before he died</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Recovered the cubic gate</li> </ul>And we're now all 15th level, not too surprising since we ended up 1 XP short of 15th level at the end of last adventure.Johnathan</blockquote>
