session summary: yoon-suin, 200205

We reunited after a long six months pursuing personal activities. Ade waxed philosophical with his quarry, opting not to take its horn. Bishal researched magic among the Dwarves, where he met Jamsto Yama. Umesh appeared with a set of muscular, humanoid arms, emerging below his crab claws. Steadfast in his quest, Umesh had found a lead on the resurrection of Magool. We were destined for the Topaz Islands, and its storm-shrouded centre.


On arriving, met a boy and his uncle, fishers, who spoke of the legendary isle. On clear nights it rose of the ocean. We set sail, and found a fortified island, with signs of worked stone walls. Opting to explore, we encountered a peculiar floating creature, looking something like a manta ray, with a patchy, mossy hide, and a set of wide, staring eye stalks. Ade, believing it to be an Outsider, attacked, and Jamsto Yama fell in right behind. Still, the beast escaped, leaving us curious about the island's secrets.

session summary: knaves of the earth, 200223

Following their intuition and the cool chill coming from above, the party returned to the buried pyramid's torture chamber and tore aside the vertical stretching rank and wich. In doing so, Luwang was buffeted by a forceful blast, the bellowing screech of High Priest Vladdis. The wraith bore an icy longsword and an amulet and charged for Luwang, but failed to injure the skeleton. As Luwang swung his silver greatsword, Mirabilis, sensing the amulet's importance, sprung to the sarcophagus to deface it wih his file. Doing so caught Vladdis' attention, so Ferris sprung in to divert it. Unfortunately, the vandalism was too strong a lure, and Vladdis grazed Mirabilis's helmet, sending a cold, coursing shock through the former thief's body, leaving him stunned. Ferris plunged his icy touch into the spectre's ethereal form, and with an outpouring of willful magic, froze the wraith completely, letting it shatter upon the sandstone floor. Attempting to shake off t...

The Hess' nest stinks of rotting fish. Our Hess partner introduces himself as Jez, along with his friends, rotund Gruzz, who bears a third eye, SaSo, and Nant, whose scales lack all pigment. We discuss the Hess' missing idol until wormlings assault our position from all sides. We take one out with a bear trap, and do our best to spike the doors closed, but a brawl breaks out. Alongside the Hess, we slaughter and loot them all. Umesh scouts our surroundings, finding a pile of "fake dead," before Gruzz reveals a secret door in their lair, filled with loot. With the Hess, we head to the wormlings' hideout and sack it, too. The Hess tell us of their twisted cousins, the Yoch Hounds, and we encounter old writing under algal growth, telling us to "pray before the benediction of Kezek; the blessed may pass the fall and come to the deep." Kezek, we learn, is the Hess' idol. Shortly thereafter, we reach a massive lizard carving with outstretched hands, surrou...

Yama, Ade, Qui, Bishal, Umesh, w/ tipsta as ref Jade's Favour has been making money and moves in the world; found a new home for a dragon, uncovered the secrets of the sky metal, funded an insurgent group in the Roach Feeders. Now we're on a quest to recover the world's most powerful magic word: Reincarnate. We seek the watchtower in the Topaz Isles. With the help of Spider Climb, Yama reaches the top, spying on the way a family of spiderpedes, as well as some conspicuously tidy rooms. At the summit, he finds four platonic solids of pure sky stone, and vaults them down for the gang to recover. In his descent, Yama encounters a brilliant gold and red elemental lion — the Sakomere Guardian — while the gang below is set upon by a clutch of grim natives bearing spears. Yama pleas his case, and the lion agrees to show the way to the Grand Palm in exchange for the solids' return. The lion and its followers depart as Yama is killed by a spring trap of spiders, so the gang foll...
