Message: <blockquote data-quote="Richards" data-source="post: 9894280" data-attributes="member: 508">In tonight's "Middle of Elsewhere" campaign session, the PCs:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Traveled through Muspelheim for four days, arriving at the ruins of the Cerulean Spire, the location where the fire giants handed off the kidnapped elf seer they were sent to rescue to the drow</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Fought a half-red dragon human among the ruins, who insisted (in Draconic) "Go away!  It's ours!  We found it!" (Fortunately, both the celestial elf witch and my fiendish human cleric speak that language)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Killed him without too much effort, and then found a secret door (a hatch, really) leading to a set of spiral stairs carved into the stone leading down into darkness</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Cast prep spells - the most important of which was the elf's invisibility sphere - and then quietly followed the elf down the stairs, everyone staying within 10 feet of her so we all stayed invisible</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Entered a "+" shaped chamber, with another dead half-red dragon human in the middle section, a hoard of treasure laying in a heap to the east, and a zombified salamander and a flesh golem standing to the west, facing the treasure</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Figured out the two unliving guardians were apparently set to attack any visible intruders, so - while still invisible - dumped all of the treasure into the human cleric's Heward's even handier haversack and the shadow druid's bag of holding, then did likewise with a bunch of necromantic books and scrolls on a bookshelf to the south</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Skedaddled back upstairs without having activated either guardian, to be met with a raven familiar who offered to take us to his mistress, the elf seer we're supposed to rescue from the drow</li> </ul>So basically, we accidentally stumbled upon the exact spell that made the fight against a flesh golem and a salamander zombie moot, stealing all of the treasure available during the adventure after having only fought and killed a half-red dragon human barbarian who only managed to deal minimal damage to two of our PCs.  Not a bad night's work!And next week, we may finally meet up with the elf seer we've been trying to rescue for the last three adventure sessions.Johnathan</blockquote>
