Combat encounters (maps)

• Supply routes

Random encounters (18+ on d20 every hour, d3 or location to determine which), guaranteed betwen 2-4am

• bugbear assassin (tavern keeper informed the other assassins, party's gear seems valuable, will attempt to incapacitate 1-2 players, will negotiate with full party)
• bridge gangs/evil adventuring party hunting Von Krews; Burakh Bridge Bandits (6,675 adjusted xp)
• hobgoblin guards (the mage that escaped has given a description to the guards, medium encounter determined by party size)

Complications

• Lilith is stalking the party, looking for the easiest victim. She killed two of the escaping thieves, but kept the spy alive.

Notes

1. Pip allied some wolves, and received misinformation from plants
2. Yllaxina was almost killed
3. Cyrus befriended Casmeros, she told him the legend of the greedy devil
4. Krodol, the party found his school and befriended him. He disapproves of Cryus' demon book.
