Cast of Characters:
Locke the Elf
Keanu the Fighter
Tumnas the Thief
Ryder the Squire
Location: 2F
In our last session, we left our heroes talking to the Warrior Maidens. Keanu was left behind, unfortunately. However, while waiting for the other's return, he overheard some voices on the stairs behind him. Sneaking up, he ran into Locke, Tumnas, and another refugee from the destroyed caravan, Ryder! Locke and Tumnas had gone off to explore the rest of 1F when they found him, and the more the merrier.
The party explored a little bit and came upon a large statue of a fat little child, set into a wall. Investigating it, they ended up pulling the wand to the correct direction (left), which revealed a storage room, which was being raided by a host of very large blister beetles. The beetles, who didn't want to share, were immediately hostile and attacked the party. The party decided to raid the food and wine, and put some of the corrosive liquid of the beetles in a wine bottle. They got drunk.
Exploring further, they found a large pillar in a cavern of sorts, and attached to the pillar was a rotating bridge. They see other entryways across the way, but don't see a way to get there beside the bridge, which may rotate (it does). That was the end of the session.
New rules: I'm tired of DC, all DC except AC are dc12, with difficulty being a bigger or lower dc. I'm also gonna try with an every round initiative - roll 1d6, 1-3 Judge goes, 4-6 players go. Each player gets to roll one and take the highest and I get to roll one, so the chances the players go is high.
