%% date:: [[2023-08-22]] %% # [[001_20230822 The Three Sisters]] ## Session Summary > [!tldr] [[001_20230822 The Three Sisters]] > In this growing kingdom trying to expand further, there was a tension between the Trogmen and the villagers. The Trogmen decided to use the stingbats from a nearby cave system as weapons. They would abduct villagers, thrown them down a large pit, and wait for them to be devoured by stingbats. WE are some of those villagers. > > We started out with Liydala the human, Gorm the gnome, and Xander the barbarian. We met a small gnome named Semi-Hardbark who just wanted to get mushrooms to create an elixir. We got chased by a mummy, and we all went past a barricade. Semi-Hardbark disappeared, and Xander got killed when Gorm tried to collapse the barricade behind us. > > We met Mireth, Liydala's sister and rival, who joined the party. She'd been getting confused because of the sulfuric fumes from shafts that came from the surface and into the pit. We also met Sensendi, a human who slid down one of the tunnels and had a very long nose that he was using to forage for truffles. Running from some sounds we heard of more fighting, we all piled into a narrow passageway, only to come face to face with two ochre jellies. The first swallowed up Gorm. One of the people who were fighting behind us managed to escape - our sister Kirsa! > > The second ochre jelly was much harder to defeat, and also had acidic baby jellies that descended on us, claiming th elife of Liydala and Sensendi both. Breathless and grieving (well, one of them was), Kirsa and Mireth fled to a larger cavern... ^summary %% ## Video [Video](https://youtu.be/6graqf_hByU) 00:00:00 Banter 00:02:44 Introduction 00:08:48 The game begins, character introductions 00:16:47 Semi-Hardbark 00:34:22 Trying to get past the barricade 00:40:12 Random encounter 1 00:51:30 PC Death 1 00:54:43 Darkness! 00:58:43 New PC 01:12:37 Random encounter 2 01:17:33 Andy impressions 01:31:32 Next level 01:34:48 That's why I was mum's favourite 01:36:32 Which way smells worse? 01:42:12 A distant slurping sound 01:43:00 Random encounter 3 01:46:37 Trouble in the back 01:47:33 Ochre jelly 01:51:16 PC Death 2 and NPC Death 1 02:00:59 New PC 2 02:12:00 Random encounter 4 02:17:29 PC Death 3 and NPC Death 2 %% --- ## Log - Growing kingdom expanding into Shadowy glen of ?? forest - Trogmen - Stingbats are used as weapons - villagers are taken and dropped into a cave, where stingbats feed on them. - Help is coming, but when? The Royal Guard haven't done anything yet... We are people that we are tossed into the pit! Anyone who is still in the pit after a search time just gets eaten. Stingbats come at 11 pm. - **Liydala the Human (Mercenary)** - S -2, D -2, C +1, I -3, W +1, Ch +3, AL C, HP 1, - Gear: - Pole - Flint and steel x 2 - Crowbar - dagger - Torch Grom Xandar the barbarian. Cold, wet, dark, smells of rot. Some people have landed headfirst, poor souls... Deep gnome wants mushrooms that are glowing. Semi-Hardbark gnome. In the treasure chest: Flint and steel, crowbar, grappling hook. We come up against a wall of detritus. Like it's been hastily made. It blocks the way. Mummy!! We squeeze past a barricade and Gorm tries to collapse it behind us. Xander gets hit and dies instantly. Welcome Mireth, a bitch. Gorm finds: Grappling hook, caltrops, dagger. Mireth finds: flint and steel, pole, dagger, rope We smell something sulfuric coming from the holes in the walls. Mireth starts to get confused because of the natural gases. Middle aged human man comes sliding down the tunnel like a water slide. He's got a very long nose. He was hunting truffles? Sensendi is his name. We have a plateau of natural rock. About 5 feet. We go up and get to carved out passageways. Stone that has been manufactured. There's a clear floor. Ochre jelly on Gorm. Who definitely dies and swallows him. We hear four voices behind us, banging and yelling like they're in a fight. Our sister Kirsa!
