Sinjin, his Friends, and the Nasty Frogs

The brave party continued their current quest to find the Sage Lansa.  En route to the lost peaks the party encountered Beh-ean, a Shaman, who proved to instrumental later in the day's combat for healing.  While traveling the party encountered Sinjin, his skeletal archers and several storm shards.  The party recalled meeting Sinjin before in the prisons of Waterdeep.  Sinjin and his band refused to surrender and attacked the party.  The party succeeded, after several members were near death, to defeat Sinjin and his thugs.  From Sinjin, the party learned:

• The Mark of Thuulak has created a blight on the wildlife in the area.
• The Mark has a similar effect of a spell scar from the spell plague.
• Lansa is known as the Prophet of the spire.
• Disciples of Thuulak find their way to Lansa.
• To find Lansa one must traverse the Hated Woods, cross the Stone Bridge and climb the mountain.
• It is important not to offend Lansa.

A piece of Eternal Chalk was found.  When the party finally killed Sinjin, a black smoke enveloped him and took his body.

The party rested and healed, then continued the quest to Lansa.  In doing so, they encountered a muddy bogg filled with Bullywogs, specifically a Mud Lord, some Muckers and some Twitchers.  The party defeated them, however, not without some difficulty.

The party then encountered a not-so-friendly Elf band. The party used the coin given to them by Yinkin to communicate with him.  He was able to speak to the Elf leader, Legolas, and secured the party safe passage (at least from the Elves) through the Hated Woods.

--In Service to Dol Arrah - Jel-Vered Kantas

ps - Feanor, can you take the lead in attacking the biggest threats?  I tire of death and resurrection.


Out of game note - At the end of the session, each party member was awarded 150 GP and promoted to Level 4.

Onward Watchmen

The Watchmen are rallied again to continue our quest.  We will meet Friday, 4/13 at 6:30PM in the lair of Thuulak's keeper.

Sermon 16

And for the form Thuulak chose the Abyss, black and shapeless, and function followed form so that he hungered for the world to fall into blackness where only he could know the way of things.

The Search for Lansa

　

The blog starts as of 3/31/12 - The current adventuring party is made up of:

Jel-Vered Kantas - an avenger
Finwe - A wizard
Elros - A rogue
Feanor - A fighter

• The adventuring party recovered from the "hole" incident after slaying the Tiefling

• From there, we started back towards the twin peaks, in search of the sage Lansa

• While travelling through the golden fields, en route to the lost peaks, we encountered Yinkin and his band of Gnome traders
• The party was able to purchase much needed equipment fro Yinkin
• Yinkin's wizard was able to tell the party that the two infernal scrolls found on the Tiefling were rituals - Linked Portal and Traveler's Feast
• The wizard also stated that it was believed that the mark of Thulak causes a scry effect on those marked
• The party also learned that Lansa was - possibly a demon, an ancient copper dragon, may take many forms and has knowledge of the time before the gods.
• The party then engaged in a few rounds of the Gnomish card game Prison.
• During the game, both Jel-Vered and Finwe got very drunk, however the party walked away with most of the winnings, including 1000 GP (250 each) a potion of spirit, an obsidian horse, 10 potions of healing and a coin that allows us to communicate with Yinkin - Finwe put all of this into the bag of holding he purchased earlier.
• The entire camp was then besieged by a Troll and his minions, all of which were eventually slayed.
• The evening ended in that each member of the party was granted XPof 495, which should bring everyone's XP total to 3130.
