Session 25: Exploring The Tower Of Zenopus

PCs:

Korin Clubfoot, dwarf, F4

Mia the elf, T1/MU1

Tranaccatlo, F1

Corax the elf, A1

SESSION RECAP:

On Ready'Reat 18th, Korin arrives at Dyvers with a group of travellers. Also, Mia and Tranaccatlo meet and elf named Corax, who is willing to join them in their adventures. All of them together agree to travel to the Tower of Zenopus and continue their research on the pirates.

After three days of travel they reach the Tower without any problems. They manage to defeat a group of goblins by outsmarting them and utilising Corax' talent in mimicry. Once they have captured some of them, they interrogated them and learned that they have an alliance with a wizard who lives in the tower. They force them to lure the wizard out. He quickly realises that it's a trap and sends some pirates against the party. However the party persuades the pirates to change sides and quickly they doublecross him. With their help they manage to capture to the wizard and put him to sleep. When he woke, he was ready to make a deal with the party...

THOUGHTS AFTER THE SESSION:

This was the debut of another player who will participate in many sessions. I know the player who handles Corax in real life, he is a great player usually playing KnK, a greek osr inspired by odnd. This was also the first time that I had 4 players in one session in this campaign. Usually we have 3, in many sessions we have 2 but it was the first one to have 4.

Such a big number could cause problems, although the party progressed normally. I think that in online games, even when you have only 4 players you need to have a caller to make sure that you know who does what and that everyone has a chance to speak.

Besides that, Corax was of great help and as future sessions will point out, his gold loving nature is both a strength and a weakness. Of course, that's the nature of adventuring!

Let's see where the party's lust for gold will lead them now! With the wizard ready to talk and make himself usefull, things are looking good for the party! We shall find out!

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 ...
