S36. Xanth Xanth Revolution Report

General Summary

Notes Taken by Flicker's Player:

  Summary part 1
  • - session begins Uktar 17 on the hill. group takes a short rest for a couple hours and then Flicker and Eethyl rejoin the others at the circle.
  • - Flicker and Wolfaen found two separate entrances that lead beneath the circle (North West, South East). A baboon goes in one on the north west side of the hill and comes out unscathed.
  • - Sef stays topside with Flicker while the others go in the South East entrance Wolf found first. There is no carving here.
  • - Inside they find druidic or shamanistic paraphernalia, including burnt candles and an empty pen (save some elk pelts and droppings) that seems to have held sacrificial animals.
  • - There is an area with charcoal pictograms on the wall.
  • -One is of a razor backed boar with a tusk speared through a man.
  • -Another is 6 figures surrounding a woman in a long dress; they are depicted throwing lightning attacks directed at her from all sides and the woman has stars around her head. (To Amarille the depiction looks like it could have been religious in nature based on her faith, and ooc Brendan thought it might be a crown of stars spell).
  • -A third pictogram shows a man and woman both impaled on the razorbacked boar's tusks, the boar standing triumphantly on it's hind legs.
  • - Amarille found a parchment that detailed plans to 1. Summon Gorthok. 2. Wipe out a farm, surrounding and distracting the wizard who lived there. 3. Have Gorthok kill the wizard.
  • - There is some realization/speculation that the woman in the pictogram is the wizard in the plans, the the wizard woman is Keth's dead mom.
  • -The group heads to the North West entrance and see a carving of a boar chasing three stick figures.
  • -inside there is a loose flagstone with a bubbly rust colored potion in a hiding space beneath it. Keth takes a sip and Eethyl gives him some information about it.
  • -They discover a trap door and not much else here,
  Summary part 2
  • -Walking north, a third entrance is discovered with a depiction of 3 stick figures being struck through by a forked bolt of lightning on the stones.
  • -Inside there is a pen with a little boar inside. It's wearing a collar with the name "Benny" written on it.
  • -Wolf keeps exploring while Eethyl goes to get Flicker to speak with the boar, but she is unable to at that moment.
  • -Wolf finds a +1 Magic Shield with decorative fancy filigree. Appears Elvish in nature.
  • -Flicker wraps the boar in a comfy blanket and Eethyl gives her some rope to keep it on a leash until she can get more information from it.
  • -The group decides to head to Falcon's next and they rest along the way. Nothing happens during watch.
  • -On the morning of the 18th, before they approach Falcon's lodge, Flicker talks to Benny. The little boar doesn't have any information on where it might have come from so a plan is made to find a good home for him.
  • -Unhappy with the idea, Eethyl steals the helpless little boar from the druid's arms and pops it in his personal holding space place.
  • -Outside of Falcon's, while talking in circles about who should go where for what, friendly neighborhood centaur Xanth shows up.
  • -Xanth tells Flicker he's smoothed out the 'misunderstanding' so all is well with the hunter. Flicker is very appreciative.
  • -Inside, Falcon is impressed by Sef's claw collection, though believes there to be more troublesome orcs in the wood still (never enough for that guy)
  • -The boots are given in exchange as promised and are now in Sef's posession
  • -Eethyl shares information, past present and future, with Falcon while Amarille enjoys the spread of food provided.
  • -We believe there are 6 total Talos following Casters and Eethyl informs Falcon we have killed 5. (Yargoth at the tower of storms on the coast remains)
Summary part 3
  • -Flicker storms outside at the mention of the group heading to Thundertree (a plan set in place while Sef and Flicker were topside at the hill) and turns herself invisible. Then a 1 is rolled on a dex check and Flicker falls into garbage right in front of the centaur. Because she didn't eat inside and is now seemingly digging through trash, there is suspicion of worrisome eating habits.
  • -Keth comes out and saves Flicker from embarrassment and the two hash out the decision to go to Thundertree. Flicker was all up in her feels but Keth persuaded her on grounds that if the group doesn't go to check on the dead dragon, people nearby could get hurt.
  • -The group, now all in agreement, decide to get going towards Thundertree right away, and Xanth offers to come along to help. The group takes him up on his offer.
  • -Amarille has had enough of the nonsense and walks ahead of the group while Flicker is persuaded to turn into a draft horse. She immediately gets smacked on the hind quarters and bolts and were Sefilwyn there such a thing would have never happened I'm sure. #LadySefTheProtector
  • -Making good time, the group reaches an area outside of Thundertree by nightfall.
  • -Xanth mentions Reidoth's cabin nearby when the group starts to get ready to bed down outside for the night.
  • -The group agrees to sleep in the cabin and find some books and notes on ettercaps inside.
  • -Outside on watch Keth and Amarille see some red eyes in the distance while an odd chittering can be heard.
  • -Nothing happens on any of the watches and the session ended on the morning of Uktar 19. The party will likely be starting on breakfast around 7ish in the morning. In the distance there is some sort of tower and there appear to be webs nearer to the cabin than Xanth remembers seeing a few weeks ago.
