Briefing and Knowledge
Dangers in the area include Pirates Poisonous creatures such as snakes and spiders (it will be jungle time). Rare elementals Rare (lately) orcs Rare Drow Slavers. More pirates.

This did not work well against pirates it must be said. Civilisation. It never lasts for long. The village is up the cost from the Drow city to the south. Nominally, it is under the influence of the Greek cities to the north.
There is a witch in the jungle outside the village called Janis.
Demetrious also lives outside the village. [An obvious target for the pirates]

We are portaled via mists conjoured by Jason at midnight (at a time prearranged by Demitrious) We arrive, but all is not well. We are naked, on our backs, separated and thus unable to enjoy the nakedness. Unless of course you enjoy naked goblins, which I personally don't, although I suspect that some of our party would.
