Scribe Notes
This is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. No matter what anyone else may say.
Day 0 (At the Guild meeting) - We meet a man named Gerald at the guild and he tells us we need to go sort some funky weather out in the Dragonspine Mountains, there is also mention of Giant bandits or perhaps it was Giants and Bandits or perhaps it was Bandit Giants? Anyway, we hear the mission and Gerald gives us some time to vote on Party leader and whatnot. Much discussion ensues. A man named Tarahell Alatáriël introduces himself and then tells us of his step-daughter. He says Celeste is a bit feral we assure him we can handle her and all will be fine.
Mavric is elected party leader (only because she has the most experience). Haedric is our MilSci and I am left as the scribe (Lucky you)
Celeste is introduced to us. She is huge, has pointy teeth and sniffs everyone (Except Mayhem). After some extensive discussion Mavric decides we need some party rules. Party Rules: 1. Speak Common 2. Don't kill each other (Mavric thought this needed to be stated clearly, for the benefit of Haedric) 3. Listen to Mavric 4. Listen to Headric in combat
We have passage on the good ship Molly under captain Francis, on the next morning tide. After collecting some supplies we take go drinking and Mavric takes us to see a play. (with much drinking, fighting and fornicating, to the delight of Celeste).
Day 1 - The party boards the ship and cast off heading NNW. The ships navigator is a fool so I correct his mistakes and Magewind us to speed our passage along. The sea is a little rough for this party of land lubbers (myself excluded of course) so they get nice and drunk.
Day 2 - We arrive early morning in the port town of Gerbestadt and depart our ship. Conveniently within minutes of us arriving a large and violent storm appears out of nowhere (The Sudden Wind-Storm)so I promptly summon a cloud and we make a quick departure. On the cloud Mavric entertains the party with a saucy tale, the party (excluding yours truly) drink and enjoy the ride. We fly NW towards Barlton in Western Aladar to meet with the Baron's wife to get her to sign some papers.
As we continue to fly we come upon a large storm in the area of Barretskine we decide to avoid both of these issues, we backtrack a few miles, land and set camp to wait out the storm. During our descent, a large dark shape falls past us at great speed. We identify it as a dead Manticore. When we land we send our "advanced scout" (read as disposable) Mayhem to investigate. He reports back that it was killed by non-magical ice projectile or weapon of some kind. Mayhem loots spikes (8) from the Maticore tail.
The storm intensifies, lots of thunder and lightning, but completely natural as far as I could tell. We settle in for the night in an igloo courtesy of Haedric. During the night mayhem has a conversation with some rats (Hobbits, what can you do?) the party agreed that the chat was a little flirty. Mayhem brings the rat back to the igloo, it seems it is a dark celestial thing as the rat suddenly decides Raser is his new master.
Haedric wakes us in the very early morning, he has seen some humanoids skulking around our loot (Manticore body). Mayhem investigates, identifies them as Gnolls and we form a plan. Mayhem: "Lets give them a good killing!"
They are dispatched quickly. We loot the bodies and find: 10gs 60s 10c A ring with the seal of a noble house worth 97 gs A gold necklace with an enchantment -3 to percentile rolls
Mayhem's creepy spider eats many eyes.
Celeste and Haedric skin the Manticore. Celeste then disappears for a while. We head back to the igloo and interrupt Celeste and Gerald.
Amendment to party rules Rule 5. No coitus in common spaces.
We finish our rest and prepare to depart.
