[QUOTE="jasper, post: 7598040, member: 277"] Dungeon of the Mad Mage Session 13 Day 24-28 Maddgoth’s Castle and Slitherswamp Or I too Rexy for the swamp AP 4 TP 4 Downtime 10 Renown 1. GP 15,225. Magic Items unlocked Candle of Invocation, headband of Intellect. Magic item given out Heward’s Handy Haversack. PC Killed 6 Monsters Killed 484 Villains Captured 13 Villains Escaped 24 Obaya Uday Cash on Hand None. She is broke and when home with a candle and sword. I had a four-person group which was weak but made no changes Joseph Bard, Rick Wizard, Drew Sorcerer all level 10. And Mr. Crowley Warlock Paladin 5. Most of the group is doing no progression to keep from leveling out of the section. Otto the huge purple faire dragon is pushing the group out of front door of the castle so he can clean up, aka loot the castle. The group climbs the cliff to the east and meets the stone giant sculpture. Speleosa is busy working on another Halaster statue. She is slightly upset her work is being interrupted. But is wants them leave quietly. So, she gives the tiny one, Joseph a halfling an 80 pound “P” as their pass key. She tells the disappearing forest is to the east. Pointing to the blank east wall. Rick summons an ugly monkey (demon) to carry the P. As they walk around to find a way east, they discover two twin guys carving on the cave wall.

Oops I flipped the Yuan-ti with a spirt naga in the ghost of Mr. Crowley. The group will start next time at Room 21A mid afternoon of day 28. [/QUOTE]
