In the Village

We start the session with our downtime activities since last week. Most of the party rested up (gaining a +1 HP bonus for this session) but Sotar spent the week inspecting the illuminated manuscript that he had removed from the abbey, attempting to restore it. He determined that it is a book of the Law and he restores a section of it. A brother of the abbey long ago had been writing a passage about how likely it is that various creatures are lying, but in the middle of the passage, he trailed off and wrote about how he has been hearing a voice in his head from the depth of the abbey. He knew that the other brothers hear it too and the other day he saw a brother carving something into the abbey...

Session 30 - 15th of September 1391

The adventures continue. This week's motley crew is...

Cherwe (Cleric 1)

Liminal Space (Changeling 1)

Sotar (Cleric 3)

Ianthe (Changeling 1)

Mechtild (Fighter 1)

Verinka (Changeling 1)

In the Village

Ianthe is back, after having an arm torn off and Mechtild has been promoted to full party member. There's a new hireling available at Nightwick village, Sister Fronika, who is only willing to be hired by a cleric. One of our own hirelings, Gumpert the Fanatic, is able to hire her to accompany us into Nightwick. A few other hirelings were available, but they didn't seem worth the coin to anyone in the party.

Nightwick Abbey - Old School Megadungeon - Sessions 28 & 29

For the past few months, I've been playing in a megadungeon campaign set in the excellent Nightwick Abbey, using Old School Essentials. One of my fellow players has been documenting our delves so far on his blog, but, as he's unable to play at the moment, I thought I'd fill in temporarily to continue the documentation of our delves into the abbey. Hopefully these play reports will help give people and example of what old school style RPGs look like at the table.

 

Session 28 - 1st of September 1391

This Week's Victims Adventurers.

Cherwe (Cleric 1)

Liminal Space (Changeling 1)

Sotar (Cleric 3)

Blossom (Thief 3)

Gaius (Magic User 1)

Verinka (Changeling 1)

Neighborly (Dwarf 1)

In the Village

There are two new hirelings available: Gumpert, a fanatical cleric who wishes to cleanse the Abbey and requires no payment to go into it (though he gets a half share of XP) and Timo, a woodsman. We decide to hire them both and descend into the abbey. At this point, we've explored what we think is most of level 1 of the dungeon, and we decided to explore more in the western half of the level in an attempt to visit some of the remaining unexplored areas.
