Diary

Duesday 1: Autumn 820wk: Fruit

Events

Met with the adventures in the party and with our employee Clair

Information gained

Clair the astrologer, decided it would be a “good idea” to attempt and astrological reading for “what fun things are happening this season.” For concern of guild safety and the greater safety of Carzala and its provinces, we have been charged with taking the reading (The astrologer) away. It has been suggested that we head east to Brastor as a starting point, though travel further east is likely.

Items of note

Clair gave us several potions (he didn’t specify every potion) and some certificates of resurrection for claim at the guild if any of us are unfortunate enough to need to use them.

Personal Notes

The human necromancer is our party seems particularly interested in my “deathly incident” in a previous adventure, he seems to be an interesting fellow. nature of prophecy on Clair is of a “very high magical strength”

Frysday 4: Autumn 820wk: Fruit

Update

spent past three days Acquiring transport, food, and horse feed and any guild services before adventuring. Kurt seems very experienced with animals, so I with the idea to leave it to him. a tower shield and chainmail vest was purchased to protect “the prophecy” (Clair). Over the past three days kurt has given us all lesser enchantments.

Events

set out from guild on adventure, plan is to get to Arn's Ferry. We stopped at a farm town where we were able to stable the animals and have food and bed at a tavern.

Personal notes

• Kurts dog is intimidating, it twice the size of me.
• Sno also has a large white cat, I wouldn’t mind riding it over the massive horses, but Sno said no.
• Eugene (the necromancer) is rather cautious, checking for nearby undead at each stop. A good precaution when camping out in the field in the days ahead.

Party Purchases

• Tower shield
• Chainmail (human size)
• several horses from guild stable (fee repaid upon safe return)
• horse feed
• food supplies

Personal purchases

• Greater enchantment, apprentice 1 area (magic): 1000sp
• rank 6 silvered falchion(+1sc, +1dm) (journeyman) (ordered during training) - 775sp
• 20x silvered hand-crossbow bolts – 200sp
• 2x guild health potions (10hp) – 1000sp

Reapsday 5: Autumn 820wk: Fruit

Events

continued Travel, reached Arn’s Ferry safely

Information gained

at the tavern in Arn’s Ferry we learned that although no military patrols are due to leave, a merchant caravan left yesterday. There were also mention of increased banditry in the area and unsubstantiated rumors of undead, specifically an undead hippogrypth near the south of Brastor. Plan is to try make speed and catch-up with the merchant caravan.

Personal notes

• overheard Eugene and some stranger talking about halflings and a price of 3000sp, this concerns me. If Eugene is buying, in my experience he’s getting ripped off.

Duesday 8: Autumn 820wk: Fruit

Update

been 3 days traveling through sweet riding at decent speed, trying to catch up with the merchant caravan. Shouldn’t be far away now.

Events

during camp setup: Eugene detected a small group of undead at the edge of his range, however it appeared that they were staying around that location, needed monitoring but not a huge issue.

second watch: we noticed a cloud coming towards us at low altitude. This was odd as it was also moving in the opposite direction of most clouds we could see in the sky. We woke the party when the clouded descended the group and it looked like people were coming off it. Sno drew their attention to us, but no confrontation arose. They asked some very weird questions about a wolf-king. I was very confused, but Kurt managed to point them in ‘a’ direction, and they walked off.

Eugene decided to see what was happening with the undead and was alarmed that they were getting too close to the camp. Kurt, Luther and I decided to investigate. We found a group of “shambling corpses” walking around a weird stone. Although very slow they were able to tell our direct from crossbow fire. After hitting the stone with a crossbow bolt, mass panic issued where some of the party started acting irrational out of fear. Sno panic hid behind the rest of the party while Cypher started a rage induced charge. The stone continued to send put necrotic magical attacks, while Kurt hit the ground repeatedly with a mattock which eventually caused the ground to shake, incapacitating the undead and shattering the outside of stone, sending infectious shards out at everyone with several of us taking collateral damage and getting infected. When investigating the inner remains of the stone, we discovered a huge issue, it was in the process of summoning a demon on a countdown. Kurt tried to remove the curse using his earth magic and a weird glowing green rock, however all he managed to do was to change the rock blue, and now his rock will be summoning the demon “at an indeterminate time”. the rock splinters have a magical aura.

Loot

• Splintered magical rock

Personal notes

• Kurt seems to be able to turn people and his animals into giant shrubs. This interests me greatly!
• I am unsure whether I want to know nature of demonic force in Kurts rock or not….

People

• Clair: astrologer (now wrapped up in Armour)
