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!
