Session 31: Tomb Of The Serpent Kings

 


PCs:

Korin Clubfoot, dwarf, F5

Mia the elf, T2/MU1

Norbor the half-orc, F2


PARTY'S HENCHMEN:

Cleon, F1

Xenop, C1


SESSION RECAP:

    The party rests on Scant and Mia is trying to connect with the local thieves guild. They are interested to know what is the party relationship with the Scarlet Brotherhood, since they were seen cooperating with their men. She makes sure to have everyone know that like any adventuring party, they don't want to close doors and are willing to work with anyone who pays them money. The thieves guild however warns them that the Scarlet Brotherhood has a bad reputation.

    Despite that, the guild wants to hire the party and have it explore a dungeon that they have found out about on the Headlands. The group agrees and also takes along two thieves from the guild as reinforcements. Besides that, they employ again their remaining henchman and also take with them Xenop, a cleric of Xerbo who is willing to become an adventurer.

    The group travels to the location of the dungeon and starts exploring it and mapping it out. They are eventually confronted by a statue of a snake man that forces them to retreat. In one of the traps that produced a lightining bolt, one of the thieves died. 

    In their way back the group is attacked by bandits. They avoided them by galloping away with their forces. The thieves guild was very happy with their results. They want to them to search and map the dungeon even more and the party is willing to do it in the future.

THOUGHTS AFTER THE SESSION:

    As I said in a previous report, I added many snake related dungeons in the area. In "my" Greyhawk, the Headlands were the home of a yuan ti kingdom and these dungeons are the remains of it.

    The Tomb of the Serpent Kings is a dungeon I have ran before and I likes it. It's a little strange but the players wanted to try it, I wanted to put it in the campaign so here we go.

    From this session report and on, I will also post the henchmen of the party. Soon enough their number is going to increase and with the use of google docs I am able to easily track their abilities, items and xp.

    The campaign continues and the players enjoy their stay on Scant. They are bidding their time until they are ready to go to the treasure island from the map they got from the pirates. But as usual, we can have a change of plan...

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.

The party surprised and killed the beetles and then put Andert's body to the side, to pick him up when they were done exploring the dungeon and give him a proper funeral. Flan healed up the injured party members and they continued searching the place.     In a room nearby, they found stairs that led down. They decided not to descend yet and continue searching this level of the dungeon. After a few minutes they entered a room where...
