(See Sessions #84 and #86)(3) DM’s Note: Thirty-six seconds to be exact.  I told the players they had about six rounds until the wyvern got to them.(4) Martin learned about a little about the Modrons, creatures who serve the god Ptah in maintaining the mechanisms of the cosmos, while studying in the library in Topaline.(5) The wyvern was blinded by the holy smite spell as it failed its save.(6) DM’s Note: This spell is Lahm’s Finger Darts from the Book of Vile Darkness.(7) DM’s Note: Purplespite was a fiendish wyvern advanced to huge size.  You can read about it here: <a href="http://aquerra.wikispaces.com/Purplespite" target="_blank">http://aquerra.wikispaces.com/Purplespite</a>(8)  DM’s Note: This spell is Wall of Ooze from the Book of Vile Darkness.(9) DM’s Note: The card for the Incense of Meditation I gave Roland’s player had the description of the item as it was in 2E, meaning instead of empowering all his spells, it made them do maximum damage instead. So while the maximum possible damage was not as high as with the 3E version, the damage would be much higher on average.  So, having failed the save for the Holy Smite and the Searing Light the wyvern took maximum damage from both.(10) DM’s Note: This became a kind of contest between me and the player of Martin’s character who was running Gunthar throughout most of the combat, trying to outdo each other with the foul profane and raunchy stuff we could have Gunthar and the flying female gnome (Tinka) say to each other.(11) DM’s Note: Martin and Kazrack were sickened by the Unholy Blight, suffering a -2 penalty on all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks.(12) DM’s Note:  Ajax’s axe called for a Will save whenever it hits or the victim suffers from lesser confusion for one round.(13) DM’s Note:  <a href="http://aquerra.wikispaces.com/Magical+Item+-+Beath-agh" target="_blank">Beáth-agh</a> is a fiend-bane weapon, doing an additional 2d6 hit points of damage to them.(14) DM’s Note:  Ya gotta love the Blasphemy spell!  Ratchis lost five points of strength.  Roland lost 7 points.  Poor always paralyzed Bastian lost 6 points, and Kazrack lost an even 10!  Luckily for those who were not paralyzed the reduction in strength only last 2d4 rounds – but then again this was only the 9th round of combat so 2 to 8 rounds can be an eternity.</blockquote>
