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.

Campaign Report: OSR, Quickly (A West Marches Campaign using Whitehack 3e)

  WHAT IS THIS?     In my OSRIC campaign we have a small break of two weeks and since I am up to date with the session reports of that campaign, I will say a few things about other games that I participated in. This one in particular is one that I hold dear in my heart because it was my first OSR campaign that I' ve played and the first OSR sessions that I was a part in! I joined this games discord server on 2021 and played in this game for more than a year! So, I will describe what we did and how it went! THE RULESET     As you can see from the title (and the image at the top of the post), we used Whitehack 3e for this campaign. I have already said that my ruleset of choice is OSRIC/ ADnD 1e but I am open to try other games, just like I like playing games other than DnD from time to time. What I want is to have rules that are consistent, help you understand the spirit of the game and provide you a specific goal.     Whitehack does that amazingly well!...

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...

Session 50: Battle Of The Iron Wood

  PCs: sir Korin Clubfoot, dwarf, F6 Dame Mia the elf, T5/MU4 sir Norbor the half-orc, F5 PARTY'S HENCHMEN: Cleon, F4 Falhed, R1 Gravoldel, R1 Briu, T1 Vailbezal, I1 Larth, P1 Rhadum, R2 Jared, C1 Bierduth, C1 Zasti, MU1 Rotoris the elf, MU1 10 light horsemen 2 mounted crossbowmen SESSION RECAP:     The party starts preparing for the attack. The fact that a powerful magic user was part of the group that they were about to face was very worrisome. So they decide to use Mia's stealthiness as well as a potion of invisibility and a potion of undetectable poison that they had from previous adventures to take him out. The plan is to have an invisible Mia approach them when they prepare the meal of the day and poison the food that is intented for the magic user. Their prisoners informed them for the time that they usually eat and also for the fact that the wizard eats alone at his tower and one of his servants brings him his food.     However, the group knew that some ...
