His party had been tricked by the bandits to come down this way (they knew about the boulder creatures) and he was the only survivor, their (skyship) navigator/rogue. We went into the room where his party does and killed the little rolling rock creatures there. We still had to get out of that dead city before water ran out (dehydration curse) so we didn't even check the bodies (he said nobody had magic items). then we heard the bandits coming...saying  they handled that party well 9they were going to loot the bodies) but that they had handled our party badly (we killed 7 of them on our way in after our ship crashed). we ambushed them but it turned out to be 18 of them (we had 5 PCs and one NPC) so we concentrated the sneak attack on the leader in chain mail and demolished him.  The rest of the bandits failed a morale check (this is an OSR with the skycrawl addon) and we picked a few off while they scattered (and a boulder monster ate one). We kept heading upward, exited the building and went looking for our other NPCs, 2 of which (pilot and scholar) had died of dehydration (we had found/made one barrel more water in the building, so they had less) and one was passed out (symbiote engineer) so we saved him. The Giant and robot were fine (one is immune and one has more HP). Made our way up out of the underground city, killed two bandits and took their floating little ferry), hid in the jungle and rested (magic user (me) and cleric were out of spells).  Then we saw the brigands at the floating port were organizing little floating ferries and we ran for the new PC's airship and blasted off. Heading for the Banking world to drop off a PC (whose player moved away) and his robot and make some deals (we have treasure and info to sell or trade and need 5 new crew meembers). In total, we lost 5 NPCs on that world, 3 to petrification and 2 to dehydration.</blockquote>
