Session 6: Holed up in a destroyed tower Report

General Summary

9 Dravago 996YK Evening to 10 Dravago 996YK Morning

During night watch Vlorg the Orc was found to have shown up at the same tower that the party decided to rest at for the night. He observed the collosal construct that was blocking the entranceway to the tower before heading to an unknown location. There was a sound that seemed like Vlorg the Orc was accessing a door somewhere nearby the tower on the outer perimeter. Verna Appleblossom decided to follow behind stealthly and see if she could determine where he might have gone in the tower. Verna Appleblossom did some tracking and noticed that the footsteps just seemed to disappear. Verna Appleblossom notified the next person in the watch, Donaar Raghthroknaar of the situation and told him to keep an eye on it. During Donaar Raghthroknaar's watch, he saw one of the Shadow Mastiff head mysteriously pop out of one of the supporting buttresses of the tower. Despite his size and lack of stealth, he was able to go unseen by both the Shadow Mastiff and Vlorg the Orc. That trio was then observed heading back to town in where Donaar Raghthroknaar figured it would be wise to investigate the area in the morning.

10 Dravago 996YK

Figured out buttress support on tower was an illusion in one spot. Door was trapped, party disarmed and unlocked door. Tons of Light spells were done on stones to provide light down stairway. Was moot because first step had the ability to illuminate the entire stairway. Came to what appeared to be another double door system. High arcana check allowed all the entrances to be seen and there were two side paths. Doors on Left/Right would close after 30 seconds from removing hand from switch. Lost of valves that led to various piping formations - presumed trap in main hallway and valves were some sort of puzzle to disable trap. Trap was not disarmed but instead window was broken instead.

Created Content

I mean this whole section was modified because the group was like "I want to fight a beholder" and I said OK, despite the party being only LVL 3.

Related Reports

Technically since Klaus, and Swim Shady are part of the group, I guess they should have some kind of journal here...

Notes

Should generate some documents found at the desk - depends on how ambitious I get.
