Scribe Notes

Session 1

Our tour this season is to based in Seagate and we will be visiting the empty residences to discover why they are still empty. I have as my companions Limedhl the potion mage, an elf from the Lunar Empire of the Binder persuasion, a human from the Lunar Empire who dabbles in the light, a "human" who plays with all the colours and a pleasant halfling (at least we think she is a halfling). Our employer, the master assassin of some repute in the guild, will give us more instructions after we have inspected the guild maps of Seagate to help with identifying the first sights for our visit.

Session 2

We met a new companion on the way. So we dashed to a local tavern to consider the nature of her existence. After that met up with her again and made our way to the first house on our tour. Most people didn't seem to notice the house or the guard rhino. After the rhino was confirmed to be scared of the dark and Keso tried out for the hunt we made our way inside. There was a chattering skull in a cupboard a trapped chess set and a strange blue vile in various rooms. In the end we found a room with a painting of a moon that is some sort of portal and a table full of headless dinner guests.

Session 3

We find another room with benches and mouldy food with stone rats. I am reliably informed that this is a kitchen before our halfling is traumatised by the food attacking.With the door now shut we make our way to the butterfly room.There are 3 live butterflies in a jar and a green gem. We also find in another room 3 apples a red a green and a yellow. They are 20 years old.In a room of magical drkness a living impaired chef attacks( may have been a golem). we find 3 potions (red, blue and clear) and a skull with astrological symbols on it. we relieve him of his knife, his cleaver, his apron and his skillet.

Upstairs Lim tests the windy corridor on his hands and knees. In the wet bathroom with it's eternal shower we find a scum monster frog, terribly exciting. After the frog is dispatched we found some gold coins and another skull with more symbols on it. In the attached dressing room we find some magic robes and a mirror that Minerva reports as being quite enchanting. The Bedroom is quite substantial for a human place. There is a globe of fire and a trapdoor in the ceiling. Up through it we find a room with windows but it does have another door. There is a candle on a table, a shiny sword and the body of of erstwhile guide with another of those skulls in her hand. We sense a trap so Lim picked the skull up. after a short delay an imp appeared. The sensible pointy eared amongst us dove out of the way while Kerry let him have the darkness.

Session 4

With a knotted rope we make our way up the windy corridor. The library is found and we find our deaths being predicted. We send in the lunar attack squad(Keso and Minerva)There are flying books and the smell of sulfur. After the ghosts and such like are defeated we find a silvered long sword, a quill, inkwell, silvered dagger, a book(title: Moon and it's role in magic),500sp,Magnifying glass(comprehend language?)and another skull,a nine headed hydra candelabra(is it safe?) and some plate mail. Next is a bedroom with an ornate chest. We send in the Lim and he has a fearsome battle with a centipede. He was very small at the time. There is a metal box with a hundred gold coins and a magical cowboy hat. The next bedroom had silvered grooming items and a book. There was a cupboard that had gemstones on the floor. when one was touched more fell. This spooked Lim terribly. I think it may be because he is a gutter elf.

We go collecting skulls, two headed cats fun gifts for the whole family. we go down stairs and send in Lim to the room with the stone rats. Lim gets stoned and they get unstoned. After some pulling on the rope we haul him out. The chess game reveals a hidden compartment with another skull.

After finding all the skulls we put them on the bodies. Eventually(after some painful experiments) the secret compartment opens and we find Coins, a silver key, a 20pt healing potion, and 4 scrolls. We climb up to level 3 again and use the Key. Behind the door is a wizards work room with some carelessly placed wands in a magic circle and a black oak chest. around the room are lore books and potions. Lim approached the circle and disappeared. After letting Lim have some time to get back to us I shoot an arrow that moves the wand and depowers the circle. Lim also turns up again. The chest had gold, 2 20pt healing potions, potions of restore stats,potion of dark vision and some bracers.
