Message: <blockquote data-quote="Richards" data-source="post: 9719152" data-attributes="member: 508">In last night's "Middle of Elsewhere" campaign, the PCs:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Attended a celebration on the evening before Shift Day, commemorating the fact they had survived a year on Lunia, the first plane of Mount Celestia (Shift Day always happens at midnight)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Watched as the shadow human druid released his Medium celestial viper animal companion from service before midnight. so it had time to slither away out of the range of the town and its surrounding farmlands and thus remain on Lunia, its home (we never have any advance warning about where Elsewhere's going to shift next)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Got into position before midnight at the beginning if the farmland, inside the protective radius of the town center where planar effects don't reach (in case the next plane is hostile to life, like the Negative Energy Plane), and once we shifted (to a land that was still dark, but had heavy, reddish-black cloud cover), headed due north to check out the new environment</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Saw several fires ahead in the whet fields and approached; the celestial elf witch's owl familiar saw several foxlike figures inside the flames</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Were approached by four fell foxes (vulpine equivalents to hell hounds) - normal-sized foxes with burning tails, which were setting the wheat fields ablaze</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Killed two fell foxes when the celestial elf witch saw a larger version (a dire fell fox) fighting a hell hound further on, about the same time the shadow human druid determined these fell foxes weren't attacking us, merely running away from the hell hounds (there were two dead hell hounds and a human-sized figure lying prone by the dire fell fox)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Complained when my fiendish human cleric continued killing the fell foxes anyway (one had tried setting his robes on fire, and another attacked him when he killed that one)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Took out the remaining hell hound, the shadow human druid made friends with the dire fell fox (new animal companion to replace his celestial viper), and determined the dead woman was a druid scout missing from Elsewhere several years back</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Learned from her journal she'd gotten separated from Elsewhere when she failed to return to the town before a Shift Day, and had been traveling the planes on her own</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Recovered a magic staff, a doll that allows a wizard to cast spells on her familiar when it's not in contact with her, a Heward's handy haversack, and the smashed remains of a mechanical gizmo she'd used to track the movements of Elsewhere - and apparently allowed her to deduce it was coming to this plane next (that last bit is very intriguing to my cleric, who wants to learn how to "steer" Elsewhere)</li> </ul>And we all leveled up to 2nd level at the end of this short adventure.Johnathan</blockquote>
