Message: <blockquote data-quote="(un)reason" data-source="post: 9505180" data-attributes="member: 27780"><p>First time in a while every single player was present. I actually got to do a decent amount of prep this time, so while the core of this underdark area is based on <a href="http://forum.rpg.net/index.php?threads/polyhedron-dungeon.861315/post-23874276" target="_blank">Thunder Under Needlespire</a>, the multiple unmapped tunnels leading off that map now connect to other adventures or Maps of Mystery. Since only some of the party members have darkvision, the two sneakiest party members went ahead of the others. They passed several turning points before coming to a junction seeded with Shriekers, which they managed to detect before setting off. They weren't quite so stealthy on the other side, with the noise they made attracting the attention of a deep gnome patrol, but with the help of invisibility and flight, they managed to hide on the ceiling until the gnomes went past them before unleashing sneak attacky death. Continuing down the tunnel, they managed to spot the secret door to the svirfneblin mines, but since the tunnel was gnome sized, our enlarged party member couldn't fit through. The two stealthy party members went on ahead again, coming out in the gnome fungus gardens, while the other 4 looked for a larger way in. They didn't find one, and since the two in the lead decided to start going from burrow to burrow impulsively slaughtering, (soon failing to one-shot entire families so the alarm was raised after a couple of rounds) were forced to get inventive. Fortunately, their Gith leader has a power that lets him swap places with another character, so by crawling through the tunnel and then switching with the orc, they were able to get the rest of the party into the action after a few rounds. The rest of the session turned into another massive battle where the enemies were mostly outclassed, but still managed to get the occasional hit in through sheer weight of numbers. Will they be able to finish them off next session, and will they remember to leave at least a few of them alive for questioning?</p></blockquote><p></p>
