[QUOTE="Reynard, post: 9273736, member: 467"] I am about an hour and a half away from the first session of the portal fantasy, called Beyond the Veil of Dreams. The story is: the PCs are graduating college, enjoying their last trip together to the Fantasy Live Action New-England Gaming Experience (FLANGE) before life pulls them in all different direction. As they are exploring, a heavy fog rolls in and when it dissipates the giant paper mache monster is real. When they head back to the game base camp they find an actual medieval town. they are waylaid by horrifying "blight men" only to be saved by a patrol, who then escort the PCs to see Valedra the Seer. She is "vizier" to the Twin Sovereigns and she explains that the Blightened King has forced the Twin Sovereigns into a cursed sleep. The PCs have been drawn into their world by the dreams of the Sovereigns to help fight the Blighted King. Valedra needs the PCs to go into the now-blighted Sovereign Forest and retrieve a fruit from the Sovereign Tree she can use to wake the Twins, who will send the PCs home. Time constraints will determine exactly how many and what sort of encounters lie on the path (I have both some combats and some NPC interaction encounters prepped) but eventually the PCs will get to the Sovereign Tree where they will be confronted by its guardian, a trickster serpent. The serpent tells them they don't need to return the fruit to go home; they can just eat it here and wish their way home. This si true, but if the PCs do so the Twins will not wake. This is the first of two parts, with 4 out of 5 of the players signed up for part 2, so their choices in this session will define what the second session looks like. In that, it is 30 years later and the PCs are drawn back to the Veiled Realm to finish what they started (whatever that turns out to be). [/QUOTE]
