[QUOTE="HaroldTheHobbit, post: 8436248, member: 7031679"] After 8 months my social pillar- and roleplaying-loving players are lvl 7. After much ado they have finally broken a Waterdeep distribution network trading in the mysterious drug only known as salt. They have learned that the necromantic Black Flame Society is behind the salt production, and has taken on one of their bases south of the Regheed glacier. At the same time the learned about Goliaths and barbarians scrambling for war with each other north of Icewind Dale (which ties into the backstory of the partys goliath barbarian). On Friday the party will start traveling to the Northern war area on the (gnomish) Aeronautic guilds experimental airship, El Gaviota Loco. I will prep an air encounter with some save-the-balloon drama, and set the scene for the war area. I will also stat up the bad guys behind the war mongering - it's a pair of cursed twin warlocks with Fraz-Urb'luu as patron. And of course they have ties to the Black Flame Society. I will also set the scene for Caer-Konig in Iceland Dale, where goliath and barbarian refugees have gathered. Among them is the party goliath barbarians mentor/uncle, and her former barbarian tribe lover. I may also let an old NPC favorite return, the patchwork human-of-a-kind Dr Dragomir, zombie surgeon extraordinaire, as a refugee camp help worker sewing clothes for the needy. (He is simply an Igor as in Terry Pratchett's Discworld, which the players are clueless about :-) ). If I know my party right they will stop at Caer-Konig and get sucked up in social and roleplaying stuff, we'll see if they manage to get to the war area next session this Friday. [/QUOTE]
