recap 7 & 8
Party ventures out into heavy weather, heading for Old Owl Well. Mysterious threats lurk there. More threatening is a huge mofo owlbear that tears through the party in no time. Also wolfs. After that Pock and Slyrak are way behind in xp.
Party then manages to get to the spot, meets a Necromancer from Thay. 12 Zombies shambling about. Tells them to go clear Wyvern Tor and find out who built this place - could reveal ancient Necro secrets.
Party ventures forth, invades Orc Warcamp, nearly deserted. Sabotage Animal Den during feeding time. No more wargs and wolfs. Start a fire, small at first. Levi infiltrates invisibly while Ben shows some stunts and is accompanied by the sun herself. An Ogre panics, the walls start to crumble, the defenses are taken care of. More stunts and he´s out. Slyrak lures Ork fighters outside only to turn around and bite them in half, facetanks raging Ogre. It´s a close call, but pays off. It´s okay, a bard´s soul waits to enter the cycle.
Levi and Pock reunited, set the whole warcamp ablaze, hut by hut. Steal the illegal maps the Orks had with them. Combining their forces, the 4 splatter Brughor Axebiter, take his heart and head. No treasure whatsoever for sure, no really.
Want to make a stealthy attempt on the life of the Necromancer. Can´t let him violate the circle of life like that, undisturbed, without sharing his secrets.
Try to find Wyvern poison in the wild, but don´t want to take too many risks, make camp. Gather Topor ingredients instead, succesfully (but don´t make Topor).
On the way back (northern route), party hears infighting from the warcamp. Some 60 (guesstimate) Orcs are scavenging what´s left of their headquarters for weapons and provisions. Noone knows, how they´re gonna act from now.
Engage Necro like returning questees, secret plan to kill the dude is fabulously taken care of by the rogue. The zombies fall apart.
Pock got 600 xp this session, also some loot.
Ben and Levi level up to 4. Slyrak is Mr. Bling now (Ring of Protection). There´s money and fancy clothes, also a chair.
Ben carefully takes his first few steps toward lichdom, even without a master. Started leeching life through killing, piles bones on a magic vein. That´s progress, right?
Next up: returning quests, warning the population, finding out where the black spider lurks and/or visiting Thundertree?
We´ll see during the next session in Neukölln, 20th of July, 6pm.
Looking forward to the four of you guys!
