Message: <blockquote data-quote="Richards" data-source="post: 9757087" data-attributes="member: 508">In tonight's "Middle of Elsewhere" campaign, the PCs:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Were in the middle of a three-day trek back to Elsewhere when they were approached by the invisible imp they'd met up with last session, who informed them the quasit who had escaped my PC's wrath (for daring to attack him, the wretch!) had been making his way due south "to some strange town" (obviously. the town of Elsewhere)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Returned to Elsewhere, informed Father Solaire (one of the four leaders of elsewhere - he's a solar) of what we had discovered thus far, and got him to agree to send a contingent of spellcasters to go "free" the books we'd unearthed last session</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Were told to go see the town's azer blacksmith, as he had some equipment he wanted us to "field test"</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Found him covered in bites, hanging in the air from an immovable rod while two hungry rat swarms milled about beneath him</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Attacked the rat swarm, and discovered four dire rats (one celestial, one earth element, one fiendish, one normal) in the alley nearby</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Had my fiendish human cleric and the fiendish orc fighter take on the rat swarms, while the human shadow druid, the celestial elf witch, her celestial owl familiar, and the druid's dire fell fox animal companion took on the four dire rats</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Slew the celestial dire rat and chased off the earth element dire rat (he was staggered at 0 hp), then "deduced" the "normal" dire rat was most likely a wererat (which would explain why he didn't have a template, as the other three did as they must have been "local" rats born on different outer/elemental planes)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Ended up in a scrum against those last two, and finally caused the "normal" dire rat to reveal itself as the quasit we'd met up with days earlier (which was excellent news for my cleric PC, as he'd already sentenced the quasit to death for having had the temerity to bite him)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Finally slew both of them after a hard fight, and were given four enhancement stones by the blacksmith (which add a +1 bonus to any armor or weapon to which they're attached)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Bought some items with the black onyxes we'd found in the lich's lair last session (and which Father Solaire had said we could spend as we wished as payment for unearthing the lich's arcane library).</li> </ul>And we leveled up to 3rd at the end of the game session.  My cleric took the feat Spell Focus (conjuration) as a prerequisite for Augment Summoning that he'll take at 6th level, at which point he'll be summoning all kinds of creatures to do his fighting for him (rather than have to stoop to the indignities of personal combat, as he's been forced to do thus far).  I've also decided he'll be summoning specific individual creatures, so for instance when I have him cast summon monster I to bring forth a fiendish hawk, it'll always be Kriegsfalke who shows up, since I'll have had him specify him by name during the spellcasting.Johnathan</blockquote>
