Calf Catastrophe

Session 1: The Calftastrophe
Introductions - Onyx - orc earth mage, Doc - human Necromancer, Vath - Human E&E, Katya - Elf Necromancer, Koishi - Orc Rune Mage and Lavender - Elf Naemar.

Day one: Stonesborough calf missing From Gideons farm.
Sightings of large cow in Stonesborough, why?
5000sp per person.
We walk to Stonesborough over the Day.
Tavern discussions:
Someone’s Aunt is a slag
Giant bull outside Tony’s wife’s Aunt Margret’s window possibly spotted. Cottage east is where Margaret is found.

Watch order:
Vath + Onyx
Katya + Koishi
Doc + Lavender

Day Two: We head east to Gideons farm.
Looks like a grain and cow farm.
Bald man farting in farming gear says missing calf is “Pickles”. Went missing about a week and a half ago from the far field. Ginger furry highland cow
Small waterway into the paddock.
Forrest in walking distance
We reach Margaret’s cottage. Doc want big beef.
Margaret make us tea. Dianna was here recently and saw Moo.
Doc found possible big beef tracks. Dang that’s gotta be a big moo
Vath and Katya commit grave robbery on Margaret’s poor saimese kitty named Pibbles. It now follows. Skeleton cat is scary.
Vath has hair
Hair speak to Vath, is he hair whisperer? Says cow is in direction behind farm, towards forest.
Now in forest heading up stream.
Throw stick at bush. Goblin is riding bunny. Is he bunny pimp?
He is yooclease the third? He ate a cow.
He fall off rabbit
Lavender says goblin is good at animal bondage.
Other goblins no longer alive. Die upstream after goblin soccer.
Lavender grab goblin when he try run again.
Other goblins eaten by bigins that shouldn’t be big.
Plan to go up stream.
(Tea made us not backfire all season)

Session two: The Hunt Begins

Day two:
We head on upstream 2 hrs. There’s snuffed campfire smoke in distance. Little hovels dug out in area. Big enough for humans.
Once closer, many carcasses outside hovels.
Entered camp area. Has been ransacked and corpses mostly eaten. Ew.
First hovel fill of pots. I pull one out. Chalk writings show weird mix of teleportation and conjuring overlapped.
Seems to be 20-30 carcasses. Lavender DA’d and they were goblins and dirty orcs.
Next hovel is barracks for a dozen.
Next one armoury.
Katya speaks to the dead. They were killed by large animals.
I think onyx ate poor halfling.
Pots are magic. Randomised procurement is the effect. Range of item can be complex. Distance is infinite. Activated via smashing.
I smash pot. Now there is bread.

Now there is a pot genocide. Got much food items, small piles of currency (1000 silver) 3 pretty daggers, chicken shaped reeds wicken, 2 rods engraved with goblin snapping it and running. Says snap and pray. Sound fun. Milk carton of potions. See through pocket watch. And a fez it is ‘cool’ apparently. Bottles have strange imagery dated for end of season. They must spoil. Hope they don’t smell. Other misc items
Animals came downstream, had a feed and left upstream. Maybe we should turn around.
They were possibly provoked.
We made a bloody bonfire. Not a good smell.
Officer quarters have documents in orcish. They mention someone is boss. I think he’s running for chief. Some short guy offered to sell them fighting animals. Must be the child goblin Youclease.
Armoury trashed. Basic weapons left behind. We may return for it.
We sneak upstream til 2 hours pre sunset. Found big sheep eating grass. It’s big as a cow. A normal cow that is. Not a giant cow like one we are looking for.
Onyx talks to sheep, it said Baa. Sheep is scared. It ran away.
We find a nice tree and setup traps for the night.
I divinated a potion. It is murgiffins fabulous potion. Effect, randomised joy. This will expire also.
Trap triggered. Heard a loud “AH FUCK”
Its not Youclease upside down in tree. He dropped bag.
Bag has 50 tokens with goblin pic on them. They are gifts. They help him if he bites them. They are goblin ex markener? Does random stuff.
It’s a different Youclease? There are many.
Giant wolf is “left of sun up” so north.
Saw cow back towards farm.
I kicked him and gave two tokens. He ran away.

Session three: AHHHH, BUNNIES!!!
Day 3: We decide to follow the trail of destruction. We find 2 large boar and 2 large sheep across the river.
Onyx speaks to a boar and pretends to be a bird. It said the big Moo was with a little two legger. They are upstream With legged one the colour barkless tree.
Boar said cow passed through a couple nights ago.The 2 legged may have had alchemy bottles.
We waited for them to leave before proceeding up the trail.
We walk an hour till mid morning and find a run down foragers cabin. 50 ft away we see roots and herbs on the racks.
I peek through the door, it is well looked after inside. Someone has been living here.
Onyx found some plants that look like they were mutated in some way.
Looks untouched inside, aside from the small hole in the door and a path to a rack.
Silo is empty. Shelves inside shack have crates filled with empty bottles.
Herbs inside are somewhat fresh. Axe marks in the walls or the silo. Someones broken in recently.
We may have to lick some rocks.
We found some empty rusty animal cages nearby. Maybe horse sized.
DA on herbs says they were altered. Alteration, Enhancement, Malleability effects
We found poop. It is from a variety of animals.
We found some cart tracks leading north. Katya Wants to DA Lavender As Lavender DA’s rock.
We follow tracks for a couple hours. To a small clearing. We found about 5 dirt igloos 7 ft tall.
AHHHHHHHHHH RABBIT, IS SO BIG AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, IT HAS RED EYES. I am now hiding. Rabbit thinks flesh is tasty. He is big like a dog. There are a dozen of them. Oh dear…
Rabbits are very dead…
Is Vath making a rabbit skinsuit?
We now have a bunny balloon.
