SESSION RECAP:

    The party descended on the second floor of the dungeon. In there, there was a group of bandits that tried to stop them and in the fight, Larth the paladin who charged against them was slain by the spear of one of the bandits. The group then was searching the room but soon enough they were attacked by some strange humanoids with burnt faces. They easily destroyed them and then they continued the exploration of this floor of the dungeon. The bandits had some pendants of Lolth on them.
    Once more they encountered huge and giant spiders and once more Nolbor was stung and poisoned. Luckily for him however, this time they had antidotes so he didn't die and they defeated the spiders. After a few minutes of exploration they met some vulture-like creatures that were hurt and had some eggs around them. The party destroyed the eggs and killed the humanoid vultures. After that and having found some treasure, they took the dead body of Larth and travelled back on Verbobonc. 
    On the road they met a group of elves that live on the Gnarley Forest. They informed them cultists of Lolth had a base in there and that they should be careful. 
    When they returned, they paid the cost for Larth's ressurection, which was successful.

THOUGHTS AFTER THE SESSION:

    This session was just more of the same. Once again the spiders had 4 different targets and almost all of them picked Nolbor, with two of them managing to hit him despite his really good AC. It's unbelievable how this keeps happening, luckily for him though they had the antidote this time.

    It was also strange how easily Larth was killed. That was a good lesson, never charge with level 1 characters! They brought him back however and that means that he is more loyal to them than ever!

    On this session they became sure that there are followers of Lolth in this area and that means that a very particular kind of elves dwells nearby...

    Let's see what new adventures they will face in the sessions to come!

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 ...
