A wizard from a small adventuring party that had helped reclaim wave echo cave turned rogue, summoned a demon and set fire to part of Phandalin. His former allies were unable to stop him and it resulted in most of the town population being killed and 1/3 of it razed.
The adventurers who had saved Phandalin's survivors this day decided to reform their group with a new name: ISIS.
The group of adventurers that had attempted to defend Phandalin came back with a small company of soldiers the Harpers helped them raise. Together with that company, they managed to slay the demons that had overtaken Phandalin. They also closed an abyssal portal that had appeared in the town. After this the survivors hailed them as Heroes.
On this day an army of orcs and fire elementals led by fire giants attacked the town. Much of the town was destroyed and many people were killed but the giants were eventually repelled.
On the night of the 13th of Flamerule the business known as the Triboar Travelers was attacked by ISIS who were attempting to rob it. During this, all inside were killed and an Elder Oblex was revealed to be present under the business. The Oblex escaped by teleporting.
On this day, ISIS uncovered the town of Yartar was being influenced by an Aboleth and they would defeat it with the help of a Drow they met. However, the drow would reveal itself to be an agent of their enemy Aldeyr. Upon the Aboleth swearing revenge on them as it dies, they join a faction of aberration hunters called the order of the Cerulean Sign. The town thanks them, pays them and they continue their travels.
On this day, ISIS arrived in Waterdeep and after helping battle a troll in a tavern called the Yawning Portal they find a cure for an ailing Bungus and become embroiled in a war between the Zhentarim and Xanathar thieves guild. They also discover that a new drug has been coming from Baldur's Gate that they assume is being made by Aldy. Ye and Mug both join the Harpers and Emerald Enclave respectively.
On this day it is discovered that one of the pets Bungus bought is actually a young wandering elf girl named Meriele. She is cute and a druid and the party decide to adopt her into the fold.
On this day ISIS along with their new companion Meriele manage (with help with the Zhents and Harpers) to destroy the hideout of the Xanathar thieves guild. They accomplish this by stealing kegs of smokepowder and using them to collapse the hideout of the Xanathar guild down around them. They barely escape with their lives after the leader of the Xanathar, revealed to be a Beholder, discovers them and attacks.
After being promised their own tavern by their new friends Volo and Mirt, ISIS begins an expedition to Baldur's Gate to hunt down the source of the drug that has been plaguing Waterdeep, revealed during the Xanathar attack to be coming from the city of Baldur's Gate.
After a long sailing trip, during which ISIS is attacked by a strange sea creature and even a red dragon, the group arrives in Baldur's Gate and follows up on leads they received in Waterdeep to track down their target to a specific location in the city. After finding a tavern to rest in for the night the group is attacked by and fends off a group of cultists.
During the battle against Aldeyr Bungus is influenced by his enchantment magic and is forced against his will to murder Meriele. He does so and after the battle against Aldeyr is over Ye uses his magic to speak with her spirit who tell the group she would like to be buried somewhere special so the group decides to travel to the headwaters of Unicorn Run, a river sacred to Nature deities.
On this day ISIS manages to track Aldeyr down to his hideout with the aid of the person formerly hiding him. Rilsa was hiding him to sell his drug to the wealthy of the city but he has become too dangerous to keep around so she leads ISIS right to him. Upon finding him in the complex he had built under his hiding place they engaged in a long and difficult battle. They eventually force him to retreat but not without cost. After the battle they discover via a journal entry he left that he retreated via teleportation somewhere called "Realmspace."
On this day, an explosion rattles the upper city of Baldur's Gate, ISIS are contacted by their allies in the Cerulean sign and lead to discover a small colony of Mind Flayers. ISIS attacks and manages to kill or drive off the flayers as well as Bungus managing to kill their leader: the Elder Brain. This is accomplished in part thanks to the new power the Cerulean Sign bestowed upon them.
After spending a Tenday resting in Baldur's Gate waiting for ship repairs and their salvage from the flayers to be forged into weapons and useful items, ISIS spends some time each pursuing personal interests. Bungus robs a merchant, Mug goes to a nearby hospital in the lower city to use his magic to heal the sick and Ye manages to clean house gambling in the casinos in town. After they reconvene, Ye uses his silver tongue to get out of paying for the ship's repairs and they depart the town, hoping to not have to come back.
After a day of sailing the group becomes somewhat bored and decide to do all the drugs they had accumulated. The first one is a vapor procured in Baldur's Gate by Bungus called "dreammist." Each one of them has an indescribably beautiful vision and Ye and Mug fall victim to a craving for more and attempt to turn the boat around. Ye and Bungus become desperate to continue their high and do every other drug they have, unfortunately for Mug he winds up eating a part of an Oblex they had fought before and finally slew. This causes Mug to gain the memories of Bungus that he had lost to an attack by it, Mug is traumatized pretty badly by this and swears off drugs as a result. Bungus during all this was terrified and tied himself in the boat's sails to prevent it from going anywhere.
Upon arrival in Daggerford, the group inquires about a word Aldy mentioned to Ye after appearing in his dreams but aren't able to find much. However, their fame has reached this place and the leader of the local militia hires them to find a Tiefling girl who came to town often but chose to live outside it. She sent guards to find her but they never returned. So she hires ISIS to find her.
Wanting to rid the woods of another threat ISIS goes to investigate an orc camp that is also here. At first they manage to bluff their way in and win respect. However, it all goes awry when they prevent a sacrifice of an elf woman. This leads to a battle and ISIS kills all the orcs there save some children. Mug decides to adopt these children who are about 1 year old.
After arriving in the woods ISIS discovers creatures similar in nature to their own Bungus but more perfected in appearance. They battle these creatures and kill one and capture another. After the battle is over, they are approached by the very Tiefling they were sent to find who introduces herself as Kallista. She bids ISIS follow back to her house so they can discuss events.
On this day, after ISIS follows Kallista back to her home and she decides to join them to find the source of these creatures in her forest, more of the Bungai attack. ISIS manages to subdue the attackers and Bungus, wanting to help his kind uses the finger of Iloh he bit off to form a new religion he calls "The Church of The Finger" which himself as the patriarch. Only time will tell where this development goes....
After returning to Daggerford and collecting their reward for finding Kallista ISIS heads toward their goal of Unicorn Run stopping in the town of Secomber. Once they arrive, Mug's senses tell him the town is infested with undead. They go to a nearby tavern and meet a group they had heard rumors of and know is working for Aldeyr: Black Star: consisting of a human named Nay, a Tabaxi named Defiant and an Orc named Bak. The groups have a rather civil conversation (despite Ye being intimidated by Nay and Defiant being terrifying) and Black Star tells them there is a vampire here that Aldeyr sent them to kill. They offer to join forces for this and ISIS is very apprehensive, they decide to sleep on it and that night investigate the town and sleep on their boat.
During these days, ISIS comes into contact with a rival adventuring party and joins forces with them. They battle a vampire named Seldinor Markov and his spawn on the night of the 16th and after resting the two groups converge and battle Seldinor at a run down tower he took over. They manage to take out his servants and eventually the vampire himself. However, Black Star turns on ISIS immediately after this victory demanding its corpse and a battle ensures between ISIS and Black Star. ISIS proves victorious and two members of Black Star: Bak and Defiant are both killed by Mug. Ye meets up with some fellow Harpers who promise to clean up any remaining spawn and taking Nay as their prisoner and ultimately executing him after learning what they can, ISIS moves on.
This day ISIS decides to join forces with Black Star to destroy the vampire menacing Secomber.
During a battle with Seldinor's vampire spawn in the street ISIS ally Kallista loses control of her magic and summons a Unicorn. This causes Mug to forget they are fighting and go to pet and feed it. The Unicorn however, senses the presence of evil nearby in Bungus and immediately attacks him. Bungus fights back which pisses of Mug who proceeds to beat him brutally into unconsciousness. Mug heals Bungus just a little and confused and in a daze Bungus attacks Mug, causing another beating into unconsciousness for Bungus. During this, Ye and Black Star deal with the vampire threat and watch the beating of Bungus.
On this day, ISIS discovered a compound hidden in the forest that was the birthplace of one of their allies Bungus. They fought their way through and managed to kill Iloh the master of this place and Bungus' creator.
On this day, the Beholder known as the Xanathar appeared from the ground and went on a rampage killing anyone that got in its way. The adventuring group ISIS who happened to be in town challenged and defeated it after a difficult battle.
On this day, the keep Dunderheap was finished in its construction and ISIS took control.
ISIS enters the Feywild to find Makaria's patron. They get drawn into a Fey game and rescue 3 girls who claimed to be former humans, now referred to as Changelings. They come across a Fey market, meet several true or arch fey, get into a fight with a group of Eladrin Elves and manage to barely survive. They are ultimately sent back to the material world by Makaria's patron, only to find out 7 tendays had passed in the real world while they were gone.
