Long Rest. Take a LevelMagic Items Eyes of Minute Seeing, Bag of Holding, Spell Book Darkvision, Fog Cloud, Grease, Identity, Web.I had an average group of five. Ardor Vengeance paladin 9 elf. Nick Way of Mercy Monk 9 Harengon. Nicolas Wild Magic Sorcerer 7 Human. Corvous Fighter 5 Wood Elf. Mishy Rogue 2 Warlock 7 Fairy.Carlton the Doorkeeper, “This Carlton please stand away from the door as we are experiencing technically difficulties. So more adventurers are on their way. IT is PULL. IT is a PULL DOOR!”Nick and Ardor take the folding boat into the third stream. It slows into a small pond, below is a glowing cage. Nick dives in.Kasdu’ul, “I am Kasdu’ul. I have been trapped in this cage for decades. The evil Kashem trapped me here. Go back up and take the first stream. Go North and then east. Help me. You are my only hope.”Nick, “Go to the bridge and north. Right.” The group moves back upstream. Take the second stream and enter a black lake with a shiny island. The water is not toxic but the color change is due to just the rock color and lack of light. As they get close to island, one person wakes up and takes a swim. The other slowly gets up.Voice, “Fools. This is a dead end. Flee while you still can. You were witless to enter, so you should stay here.” The person mouth is not working.Ardor, “Why isn’t he speaking. Wait a minute it is a ghast.” The combat is over very fast. A door opens and Corvous enters and introduces himself.Nick, “No genie. That dude gave me the wrong directions.” Going up the first downstream path, they park their boat on the north shore under the bridge. All four adventurers get out. The east path is dead end. The north path enters into a huge cavern with several floor to ceiling columns blocking line of sight. A climb berry. Group “WHAT?” A Chimera with a bull head instead of goat head its talking to a gorgon. A big bull.Chossos, “So you telling me it been over a hundred years since the cave was sealed. I own Fossus about a dozen extra presents. But since we had only fish and more fish for breakfast, lunch and dinner, why shouldn’t we eat you.”DM, “Persuasion. Group check.”Ardor, “I am a paladin, I am too good to eat.” Chossos nods.Nick, “I will give you a punch in both faces.” Chossos licks his lipsNicolas, “I haven’t bathe in a week.” Chossos licks his lips.Corvous, “I will give you a stomach ache.” Chossos licks his lips and charges. SLOWLY. He is punched backwards when Mishy shows up and mostly takes out Fossus. Ardor snipes both kills. And everyone takes a nap.Hearing the snoring from the north, Kashem decides to go fishing and smuggles encounter 17 to 18.Book, “Hey that is not what I wrote.” DM, “Hey I read the wrong entry last night. Deal.”After the nap, the group finds a riddle in the second cavern and drops into the bag of holding. Back tracking upstream they make land fall in the center landing. Corvous moves ahead and spies a basilisk. As he makes eye contact he slowly.Monster Manual 2024, “Finally loaded. It is now a cone attack with a save.”Corvous pulls out his long bow and shoots one of the two basilisks.Group, “IF there are two why are you writing out three monster hit points.” The rabbit charges ahead and is grabbed by the fighter to be a meat shield.Nick, “I am a vegan shield,” The three basilisk nibble a bit on the rabbit, wood elf, and elf but are killed and looted. They take a long rest and double back to the downstairs lobby.DM Notes. We will pick this up at bottom of stairs next week. Corvous will be here every other week so I will save a chair for him. He is new and it was his first AL session. I will be limiting him to the Players Handbook 2024. And remind me to refill the handouts in the black box. And fifth level pc sheets.End of Session 569.</blockquote>
