To adventure? Or rest? Report

General Summary

The adventure never stops!   Returning to the White Moose inn, our intrepid heroes find that something is amiss.   The Staff is different, the place is upscale, and now very expensive.   The Shrub is acting odd, he's set himself up as a kingpin.   The party asks Ben questions, consults the mirror, and some things fall into place.   Something is very wrong.   Our dear shrub has been replaced.   At that, we end our session, do we kill a demon next time?

Character(s) interacted with

So many, they met the new staff of the White Moose Inn.    Shard Orcfiend - The bartender, he tells outrageous stories, but nobody believes him "Wild" Sam Myrrdin - The house keeper, he doesn't like talking to people Tangaroa Brass - The barmaid, but they didn't get her name Marty Pondweed - The stable hand. They got a decent amount of backstory from him.   And of course, the Shrub. The shrub tried to swindle them into allowing him to continue his gross business in exchange for making really really good money.    They met up with the mummy again, who was making a hot dog who can't eat. The mummy knows Marty from before he was cursed and told the characters that an awakened spell shouldn't last forever on a shrub.    Atala spoke with speaker Nimsy, who mentioned that she didn't love that the Inn was charging a cover fee, (3 gold, but she didn't know how much it was) but she was grateful that she had her attic and her kids rooms back.

Created Content

The Frozen Vaults, a fighting pit, brothel, and drug den created in a pocket dimension, and brought here by a Demon Lord who has taken the shrub's form.   The Vaults made 100,000 gold pieces in two weeks, mostly because the Demon cast a spell around Lonelywood, turning away anyone who doesn't carry at least 10 gold on them. This spell excluded the locals to keep suspicion down.

Notes

Gross bath bomb, turns into 1d4 hours of being a slime puddle in the tub. But the character doesn't know what happened.
