Session 2: The party grows


PCS:

Urikas the elf, F1/MU1

Samwich Baggins, halfling, T1

Zyla the elf, C1


SESSION REPORT:

    Since Samwich lost consiousness during the last expedition in the Moathouse, the party needed a week to rest at least, before they continue their adventures. At the small village of Hommlet, a new adventurer arrived, a female elven cleric named Zyla. She joined the party.

    During the week that the party was resting, the leaders of the village, Rufus and Burne interrogated the bandits that the group brought back from the Moathouse. They summoned the party, awarded them 100 gp each for their services and told them that the bad guys were working for an evil wizard who lived in a dungeon under the Moathouse. They promised them more gold as a reward if they were willing to investigate it more. 

    Indeed, on Fireseek 19th, our party now aided by Zyla, returned to the Moathouse. They searched the ground floor of it carefully. They found a lot of loot, however they also found a giant snake and a giant lizard in various rooms. The snake injured Urikas and almost killed him, leaving him unconsious but the party beat it. The lizard on the other hand almost killed Samwich but the party managed to defeat it as well. Elmo tried to extract poison from the giant snake but he couldn't make it work. It would be usefull however for many people who study these things. With all these guys injured, they retreated back to town without investigating the lower levels. Soon enough however, they would.


LOOT AND KILLS:

Loot:

1 jewelled knife worth 800 gp

2000 cp

2 sets of cloth worth 60 gp each

1 goblet worth 80 gp

1 box worth 40 gp

4 magic arrows +1

1 silver magic batton 30 gp

33 cp

1 crossbow

30 bolts

1 scale armor

1 shield +1


Kills:


1 giant snake

1 giant lizard


THOUGHTS ABOUT THE SESSION:


    In this session I started realising how the pace would go. When we started playing, I thought that after 4, maximum 5 3 hours sessions they would be ready to clean the whole Moathouse. But just now, we 've spent the whole session walking around the ground floor that had no people in it and just two monsters wandering around. So yes, I was a bit optimistic.

    But I don't complain. Despite the few dangers that they encountered, they almost died. I can't expect them not to be careful. Especially in the first levels, a single hit can send you back to bed for a week.

    One of the important things however is the entrance of the player that used Zyla. He, alongside the player who runs Urikas will be the two players that carried the campaign, playing in almost every session. Really cool guys, we had a lot of fun in this game. As you will find out in the future session reports.

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...
