Session 13: The Most Welcoming Inn


 PCs:

Causticas the elf, F2/MU2

Korin Clubfoot, dwarf, F3


SESSION REPORT:

    At the first daylight of Planting 26, the party, not wanting their enemies to regroup, decided to visit again the Inn. Before that however, they visited the hermit, assured that since the clerics are evil he is one of the good guys. He is happy to see that the party is against the cult and the clerics and gives them a healing potion to assist them. This time Korin was actually healed and they headed towards the Golden Grain Inn.

    The inn was empty, besides the bodies of dead cultists that they left behind them last night. After they 've searched thoroughly and realised that noone else is there, they descended to the dungeon. There, Korin got bit by a poisonous snake. However one of the elves managed to put out the poison from him before it actually becomes dangerous. They decided to come back and regroup, since Korin couldn't continue.

    On Planting 27, they revisited the Golden Grain Inn but they realised it was operational once again. They went directly to the celar where they found one of the clerics of Merikka and several cultists. After a tough battle they managed to beat them and then headed upstairs. In the main hall, they easily overpowered the cultists that were surprised by their assault. Once the inn was cleared, they went to the dungeon.

    There, they fought many strong monsters, like a giant snake and some ghouls. After searching around they found a marble statue of a snake that had a human face. They removed its eyes that were made from rubies and its fangs and they retreated back to the mayor's house.

Zyla the elf, C1, Readying 25, 576 CY, eaten by ghouls

Jack, F1, Readying 28, 576 CY, slain by the evil cleric named Lorath


THOUGHTS AFTER THE SESSION:

    At this session, the players realised that since the cult has plenty of expendables, brainwashed cultists, its pointless to just raid the inn over and over again. They found the statue and at first they were afraid that it actually was the snake creature that the prisoner told them about. However, they got what was going on and they started talking about going directly for the heads of the cult! Godspeed!

    Also, when Korin got bit by the snake, I decided to have an elf try a wisdom check to cure him. I think I was a little generous here, he should have died instantly since he lost his save, but that's the ruling a made on the spot. I gave them one ability check, if he failed it he died. I wouldn't use it again in the future, that's why you need clerics in the party anyway.

    N1 is going really nice, the players are having a blast and the best are yet to come!

Cauldron OSR Eurocon 2024 Day I

             Wonderfull news! Me and two players from the OSRIC campaign attended the European OSR convention known as Cauldron in Germany! I will cover on this post how I experienced this truly amazing convention! Bare in mind that some details might have be mistaken because I didn't expect to write a report about it but I am so fired up by the con that I really want to share as much as I can! Also there will be major spoilers for every module I was involved in so be warned that if you want to play them in the future, skip carefully that part! Let's go then! THE TRIP     I began the journey to Germany from Athens where I live. I met Nico, my only compatriot in this adventure, at the airport on Thursday morning, the first day of the convention. I must admit that in the beggining I was a little sceptical about this whole expedition. I didn't know any of the guys involved in person besides Nico, I hadn't been in Germany before so we were really...

Cauldron OSR Eurocon 2024 Day II

      After a crazy day of an exhausting trip, a great on-train session provided by Nico and an unbelievable Braunstein game, we took a much needed nap. However it wasn't meant to last for long because at 7:30 we had to be awake to bath, reach the dinner table at 8 and after that enlist ourselves for a game! Let's go! THE BREAKFAST     It's worth mentioning that our food was delicious and it was all created by the volunteers and the families of the Nexus club that hosts the event! They worked endlessly to make sure everything was provided and the result was unbelievable! I wish I could express how grateful me and everyone else is for this effort! A lot of cheese, coffee, sausage and juice found its way to our bellies and we were ready to begin our adventures!!!     Once again be warned that the rest of the report contains spoilers for every module that I took part in, so if you want to avoid them, skip the specific section.

Cauldron OSR Eurocon 2024 Days III+IV

    The first two days of cauldron had exceeded any expectation that I could possibly have! Every game was great, from the crazy Braunstein game to the deadly tournament module and the slaying of dragons and mad cultists, we were all having a great gaming time! Personally, my only concern was to get down for lunch on time in order to be able to enlist myself for the games I wanted. But that was not the case for the third day of Cauldron.       You see, the previous day we were informed that a great naval wargame would take place and we had already signed ourselves up! Just like the Braunstein game, it would take place on the gaming world of the ADDKON campaign and me, Nico and Mitch were excited to take part in this! So, we woke up, ate our breakfast and got ready to fight! NAVAL WARGAME BATTLE The table is set for battle     DM Ghoul have made the ambitious decision to run a great naval wargame on Saturday with 7 different factions forming up two...
