Session #12

The party that first appeared in session #11 is beginning to come into shape. They are
Junter - Eladrin Wizard
Perra - Dragonborn Cleric
Samm - Human Fighter
Murg - Githzarae Monk
Gevin - Elf Ranger

Having successfully recovered the items for Sihirbaz from "The Jawbone", the party collected themselves in an alley between some dark warehouses. They found the lock to the chest had been broken. Inside they found Gaius's diary, the "capturing orb", and the teleport sigils. (All discussed in earlier posts)

The next day, the party gathered at the magic shop, and returned the items to Sihirbaz. He gave them a brief summary of what was in the diary, and in the capturing orb. He told them he would be handing this material over to a dragonborn scholar called Nadarr, who could be found at the local temple to Bahamut.

And since them party probably wants to lay low after killing the crew of a White Skull pirate ship, he told them he'd paid for their services and donated them to Nadarr for a mission of some sort.

It turns out, Nadarr runs a sort of orphanage for reptiloid children that he's rescued from homelessness and slavery over the years. The children live in a camp to the northwest of Fort Aralan. Nadarr asks the party to go to Northgate and buy a wagon full of supplies for the camp, and delivery it.

Nadarr accompanies the party to Northgate. They pick up supplies as planned.

They also find a sort of a circus freak show in town. The side-show barker calls people in the see a "real live 3-headed dragon from the far off mountains". The party enters the tent to see this curiosity. It is not actually a dragon, but a mutant 3-headed form for the spitting drake.

Also in the tent, Nadarr notices two youg greenscale lizardfolk boys working for the barker. He offers to buy the boys. The barker responds "not to you old man, you never paid me for the last ones".

After some discussion, the barker suggests that he will free these boys, and forgive Nadarr's debts, on the condition that the party fights the 3-headed drake at the local arena. The barker keeps the ticket sales, win or lose.

And so, the next day at high noon, the crowd gathers for the battle. The party wins fairly easily, though Gevin and Perra are blooded and within one blow of death.

Session 12 ends here. We'll pick up next time as the party, the wagon, and the greenscale boys head for Nadarr's camp.
