Ydnac Lond Summery

June 9th -
Tovius Driel, (Haley) Hieronymus d'Aquino, (Shion) and Boggart (Will) meet at Ydnac Odd jobs in Reppep Tnim. They are decent adventurers that were requested by the adventuring guild to go to the local branch off in city. They are hired to find and slay the young white dragon plaguing the Prestigious Polycasters expedition. Meanwhile, Pierre returns in failure from the expedition into the dungeon. Long story short, he meets with the other three and they go to kill the dragon. Notably, Pierre learns there is a 20,000 gold piece bounty for his head due to him possessing illegal magic items that the Knights of Folod want. (The candle)

The gang returns victorious, getting sent to Ecirocil by the local leader of the Polycasters. They have a close call with Knights of Folod who are being lead by a very angry Ori. Pierre assumes the guise of "Gustave the Dwarf," thanks to illusion magic. Arriving at the city, the group goes to collect on the bounty of the young white dragon. Interestingly, they do not get gold but trade the quest reward for an even more dangerous and profitable quest. Afterword, the four split to look for their own interests in the city. Hieronymus calls in his favor from Big Walt (I let him use that perk given to Cap W.) to have the leader/head priestess of Edepitnec’s Guidance, Garbreilla, murdered in a brutal and public way. (Party saw her preaching when entering city and he considered her a heretic. Yes, he is playing a Wisconian.) To get in contact with Big W he used his characters backstory of criminal contacts. I used the Gilleded Glaives as a smuggler guild which operates out of the Shadow Docks. Boggart went to a random magic shop in the main square and got his weapon silvered. Tovius had an encounter with a wise old Tortle name Oogway while looking around town waiting for others. He was a wizard with a purple staff with a crystal ball on top. Oogway was offloading exotic goods off a one of a kind magic ship. (The flying ships from Ebberon campaign.) He stated that it was created quote: "Using Dawn Empire Artificery, Hazfen Magic and ancient Perisian Knowledge long lost to all but a few in this world." He also gave him a prophesized hint to a future puzzle, "The moon is the answer." Pierre went to get promoted at the Hearthcross. I used the name you gave the district to give the tower/HQ of the polycasters a cool name. Pierre met with the guild leader, another Tortle named (???). They talked and she told him about the dangerous assassins' guild Ado's Plume which are currently hunting him.

The party met back up and went to a tavern to discuss what they learned/their next step. Pierre was jumpy as hell. They eventually left after some drinking, drugs and very high stakes gambling that almost caused Pierre to lose all his magic items. After spending the night in various areas of town they went to do quest from Odd Jobs. While leaving they learned about the many magical plants of the area including the Beat Root Dragons and how these plants/the dragon root plants especially are the source of conflict between the cities. Pierre even met a dragon at Hearthcross. (Pierre also replaced Fire Chicken with a new weasel familiar.) After travelling shananigans such as finding magic mushrooms, they went to the place and fought a bone devil and crew. The battle was intense with Hieronymus and Boggart falling in battle, but the battle was won with Tovius landing the killing blow and Pierre fled with the unconscious bodies of his two companions in his dimensional pocket. (During the battle Hieronymus consumes a magic mushroom and it causes him to be insanely horny, hungry and thirsty for the next 24 hours.)

The battle over, the crew finds a nice grass slope next to the gravel path and camps for the night. Their two unconscious companions slowly healing. Tovius attempts to make a fire but Pierre keeps casting prestidigitation to put it out. After crying himself to sleep Pierre is on watch by himself. Around 3 hours into the sleep, he sees a large T-Rex looming over the tree line some 200 feet away. Waking up the crew they attempt to get away but the T-Rex sees them in the last moment and chases. A fight ensues as the T-Rex turns out to be a high level polymorphed Druid who chases them down, kills Boggart, knocks out Pierre, and causes Hieronymus to flee into the dark in a horny panic. Only Tovius is left alive and shoots arrows at the druid as the mysterious person (a women as they find out) steals something from Pierre and flees. Tovius attempts to chase the women down (the party does not know it but she escapes with 1 hp. Ha!) Meanwhile, Boggart bleeds to death and Pierre is saved by his weasel familiar. Boggart is brought back from the brink of death by the candle in Pierre's dimensional hole who trades with Tovius (Who goes to look for pals) Boggarts ability to speak (and his soul) for bringing back his life temporarily. Boggart is revived and given a janky pact of the tomb. Pierre finds that the druid stole the acorn but left everything else. The group sleeps and the next day goes back to the farm they fought the demon at. They find and collect a large magic bone which has magical properties to it that the bone devil left and a note which indicates that Ahiriths Sentinels are operating in the flood plain and summoning demons to interrupt the harvest festival. The group goes back to Ecirocil and meets up with Hieronymus who was busy eating, drinking and fucking is way across the cities brothels due to the magic mushrooms. They end the session by all officially joining Ydnac Odd Jobs as guild members and getting another quest to investigate the cult in the basin.

The crew decided to travel to Ados Plume to investigate the candles quest. Before getting to do that, they were treated to the sight of a horrible impaling of the head priest on the steps of the church of Ecirocil. (This was requested as a hit job by Shions PC) Hieronymus was served papers to go see testify about any knowledge he had on the case by the guards responding to the crime scene. After the chaos of that scene finished, the group was confronted by assassins from the assassins' guild. (Ados's Plume) The assassins' didn't attack but sorta just intimidated them. After that, the group went to the docks to find a ship to get to the island. There they were brought aboard the Wondersail, the ship owned by Oogway. Oogway gave them several POWERFUL magical items, including a Wisconian revolver, a staff of defense, +3 plate armor, a magical ingredients bag and a stone defender. He did this on the condition that they would retrieve equally powerful magical items from the dungeon for him. (He had been searching for the dungeon for a while.) Also a new PC (run by Josh) joined the group. The PC was a claric named Cyrunner. The group went to the island and the candle helped them find the dungeon. Once there they answered the riddle of the sphynx guarding it and got access to it. The dungeon is in the heart of the volcano and thus very HOT.
July 26 -
The group wondered into the dungeon and fought a few things. One was a spellcaster warewolf and the other a giant crab. They ended up getting stuck for THREE HOURS in the third room which was a fight against some illusionary coral. Boggart died horribly, only being revived via revivify at literally the last possible round. It was chaotic.
Early August -
The group made it through the dungeon. They are each granted a wish by the candle, which has become a super powerful demonic entity thanks to it consuming the magic items in the dungeon. (That the party was sent to get!) The party wishes for:
1. Pierre wishes for the knowledge to become a Litch, letting him set off on an adventure to a far off land. 2. Hieronymus becomes a demonic monster serving the candle on a pradise demi plane. 3. I Don't remember what happened to the other too, cuz it was lame.
Thus ends the Ydnac Lond adventure!
