Session 32: Back To The Tomb

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 group is ready to go back to the Tomb and explore it even further. However they now know that there is a group of bandits between Scant and the hills and this time they will be ready for them. They prepare a plan to face them. They will have a cart full of flour and when they will be attacked they will feign retreat abandoning the cart to them. As soon as some of the bandits would approach they would activate an air blower using the wand that turns flesh to stone to cause a piece of meat that would hang above to fall down on it and after throwing a torch they make it explode and counter attack.

So, they took their henchmen and their cart full of flour and headed towards the Tomb. When they approached the area that the bandits appeared they went extremely slow, hoping to meet them again. However they didn't arrive so they continued their journey uneventfully.

They reached the Tomb and soon enough they found themselves facing the snake statue again. This time Mia used her wand to turn it to flesh, meaning that it no longer had its armor thanks to the stone that it was made of. It became an easy target and the party managed to defeat it.

Now they are ready to delve even deeper...

THOUGHTS AFTER THE SESSION:

That was a really fun session. The party spent a lot of hour thinking of how they will face the bandits. I loved the idea of using flour like that, they thought of the details and I wanted to see it happen!

Unfortunately, they never met them. When they were close to the area that they were chased by them, I was rolling d4 for the encounters and I hoping for an 1. It was not meant to be however.

As the party will find out soon, encounters strike when you least expect them...

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

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 ...
