SIX FEATS UNDER

13a campaign 40d: The Ominous Offer

As the first day in Forge ends, the party agrees to an alliance with the Empire under the advisement of Margaret and new baroness of Equinox, Bella Canto. All this, and we still need to find the Soul of Stone, the next of the thirteen keys.

13a campaign 40c: Lacking in Legislature

Drakkenhall has seceded from the Empire, Mint is haunted still by a chair from a portrait of himself he saw in Equinox Manor (resting place of the first Orc Lord), and the party continues on their separate paths, round-robin style.

13a campaign 40b: Forge Frolick

Nav befriends the unwanted of Forge, the beasts and mutants forced into the sewers. Manuél and Scarlett are forced into the monstrous slum of Beaston, where they are quickly embroiled in the plot of Manuél’s former employers and Grand Handsome’s rivals, Wylde Nyghtmäre, to free the political Dark Elf prisoners who have been held in Forge for literal ages. Bella is pulled into the political intrigue surrounding the Elf Queen and the Wilestar family. Rip finds his family arrested and their possessions to be auctioned— including the instruments he needs for the big Battle of the Bands, which, er, is also happening.

13a campaign 40a: Customary Complications

As an atmosphere of apocalypse looms over Forge, rigorous customs policies split the party, meaning we get in six or seven times as much trouble.

13a campaign 39c: The Fallen and the Yet-To-Fall

With a victory and the object of their quest in hand, the Rogue Elements learn the true identity of the Deathkillers: fallen angels who seek to destroy death itself by crushing the underworld, rumored to lie just below the Undermarch.

13a campaign 39b: The Minecart Method

Dwarven corporal Lance Marbedis suggests the relic is in the hands of the Deathkillers, an enigmatic cult of anti-undead extremists.

13a campaign 39a: Chuul in the Cavern

As recompense to Mayor Khetehk of Misty Hill, the party agrees to retrieve a relic capable of seeking out a body’s soul. Before they can reach it, they have to get past a Chuul infestation in their secret entrance to the Undermarch.

13a campaign 38b: The State of the Scroll

When they escape to Hellmarsh, Wanda reveals she was hired by the witches residing there to save/kidnap Claude from CREAM’s “protective” custody. As they assist in fighting off CREAM’s pursuers, they reveal to Claude that he is the First Scroll of Resurrection.

13a campaign 38a: An Operatic Onslaught

Meanwhile, in the dwarven capital of forge, the luminary thespian Claude Luminor (Ambisagrus), acting coach Violetta Spellreguard (Wolfshirt), and agenda-laden audience members Debentiel (PoorWeather) and Wanda Hiltpick (General Ironicus) are forced to escape the theatre as props and actors become the undead they portray— as if the play itself is violently coming to life

13a campaign 37b: Misguided Morals

Arriving for a pit-stop in the town of Misty Hill, the presence of undead disrupts the party— it is only after attacking do the Elements realize that this town is a secret settlement for the lost, the escaped, and the unwanted undead. The party agrees to find for Mayor Khetehk a relic in return for their misguided attack.

13a campaign 37a: Montage to Misty Hill
