Chapter one, Session two

We're actually closer to session three but I forgot to do this, I've been busy with new ideas like the gremlin I am.

This session! The lady from the town the night before knocked on the door bright and early, telling the party as they are already working for her kind, they can do her a little favour and look after someone.

Introducing Jafari! A tiefling ranger from a far off place and his bird companion Akila! He's a very quiet and opinionated man in his 30s.

The party soon set off, but not before finally looking at the painting given to them by Cain where Nudalim recognised Dmitri from the painting as the man outside the previous night.

Skittles once again used a wild shape to help the party travel faster until they came across a young elf woman being attacked by zombies.

The party swiftly dealt with the zombies and spoke to the elf who introduced herself as Moiraine, a young blacksmith from Paroth.

Oyam spared no time in flirting with her and Jafari helped her carry her bag. She insisted she goes by Raine and soon joint the party's travels.

On the way to Westbury, Oyam, Nudalim and Jafari had a debate, Nudalim judging Oyam for blindly following a god. It was a hella cool moment and they all slayed.

Then they arrived at Westbury and soon found way to the Riverfront Inn where there were two crews of people, a pirate crew with all types of people and an official navy crew with humans and elves.

Nudalim was spoken to by another vampire who told him where to get blood and oyam spoke around.

Eventually, the captains came out with Leeana under a false identity in tow and the party got free transport then went to bed.

Chapter one, session one

So, we just wrapped up our first session and needless to say, it went surprisingly well! Everyone enjoyed it and had fun and they actually got things done!

They met up with Cain, their good old friend and accepted a quest to take a painting of an angel from Maradain to the Tomb of the Angels in Osterz.

Oyam spent some time flirting with an old fling which raised Nudalims eyebrow as he tried to figure out just how close Oyam and Cain were. Skittles sat on a table eating cheese and drinking milk like the little guy he is.

They all accepted the quest and received the mark of Dmitri, angel of end times on their hands then swiftly left the tavern with the painting.

As they left, they found themselves in a fight with two drow sorcerers from a cult assisted by two City guards who were under a spell.

Skittles was the party mvp, turning into a rat monkey and absolutely destroying the sorcerers. As soon as both the drow women died, the guards were free of the spell and quickly ran off.

Once the coast was mostly clear, Oyam checked on Skittles and they each searched the bodies meanwhile Nudalim collected some blood to be dealt with later.

They then stole the carriage belonging to the drow women and left down, following the river along to where they need to be.

Eventually, they crossed the river, catching a glimpse of what would be assumed to be a ghost before continuing and finding a town wiped out by the plague.

Upon entering this town, they were met with the same woman they saw on the bridge who Skittles promptly ran up to and hugged. Meanwhile, Nudalim shotted the blood from earlier.

She was cold cold as ice, her face covered and her robes tattered. They found out she was there to help the souls of the dead move on, they did not ask her name but they did find out she doesn't work with a church and that she does have a group she sticks to.

She blessed a building for them for the night and swiftly left.

Nudalim explored a little, looking around in some of the other houses before returning to the party to find Skittles fast asleep and Oyam looking around.

Nudalim explained to Oyam that he has been inflicted with vampirism and that Oyam need not worry.

Then, at they were settling in for the night, Oyam heard a whisper in his ear - 'don't trust them'

Nudalim saw the face of a man he didn't recognise.

Skittles saw the abandoned, tattered frame of a painting in his sleep.

And we ended it there, allowing them some much needed rest after all this info :)

Meet the team!

Hello and welcome to my blog where I note down the shenanigans of my party as they go through the world of my homebrew d&d 5e campaign!

I thought about just writing it all on a word document but that's not nearly as fun as letting other people laugh at their activities as well - if even one person gets a giggle then this blog has done its job... as well as keeping track of what's going on!

So, our first session is this Sunday (24th March 2024) and I figured this would be a good time to introduce the player characters!

Oyam Zalnath - played by my close friend and roommate!

Nudalim - played by my current dm!

Skittles the Rat - played by someone from my first ever campaign!

So, let's learn more about them!

Oyam is a young, half orc cleric who is fleeing his homeland due to some family issues surround his brother. He has run away across two continent's to meet with an old friend, Cain Duskseeker after receiving a letter begging for help. What is a better distraction than a quest?

Nudalim, sorcerer of the cosmic gears, is an elf in search of knowledge of being disowned from his family at a young age. He knows a lot about the world but will this quest help him learn about himself?

Skittles is a rat kin druid who was born to be a soldier yet was too peaceful for it. When they were just a baby, the druids adopted them and they soon learnt the ways of the forest. Will this quest help the wilds gain recognition alongside the more popular species?

And then you've got me, Charlie, the ever so tired dm in charge of all of this just trying my best as they undoubtedly ruin all of my plans. I love my players to bits and I hope when we finish this, they still love me <3
