Nightwick Abbey - Session 127 - Fire, Lightning, Ice, Blood

Previously, in Nightwick Abbey...

Session 127 - 14th of Sextember, 1399

This week's adventurers:

Blossom (Rogue 6) 

Mayfly (Magician 6) 

Ulf (Magician 5)

Liminal Space (Changeling 5)

Yevgeny the Coward (Cleric 4)

Pataki (Rogue 4) 

Felix (Dwarf 2) 

Hirelings: Baldekinus, Hertel, Hartnid (Fighter 2)

Downtime in the Village

Felix and Pataki spend the week carousing and after a long night of drinking, Felix wakes up with a blasphemous tattoo and Pataki similarly with a lame tattoo.

Liminal plans to repair the Orange Julius machine that we stole back in Session 36(!!!) by taking it to Father Winter's workshop, which will likely have to wait until winter.

Into the Abbey 

We decide to continue our exploration of level 4 and the hunt for the demon Plutus.

As we enter level three through the graveyard entrance, Liminal scouts out ahead into the darkness.

He sees a figure shuffling up ahead in the dark.

Assuming it's undead, Liminal charges the figure, the rest of us following behind.

As he rushes in, he sees the figures (at least three of them he now sees) have flowering buds sprouting out from them - they're the fungal zombies!

Session 126 - 7th of Sextember, 1399

This week's adventurers:

Blossom (Rogue 6) 

Mayfly (Magician 6) 

Ulf (Magician 5)

Liminal Space (Changeling 5)

Poppy (Fighter 5) 

Pataki (Rogue 4) 

Felix (Dwarf 2) 

Hirelings: Baldekinus, Hertel, Cuncze

Downtime in the Village

Mayfly finishes learning the spell Knock and Ulf searches for more hirelings to throw at the monsters of Nightwick - He hires a filthy peasant named Hertel and a normal woodsman named Cuncze.

We decide to return to level 4 of Nightwick Abbey in search of either Plutus or a path down to level 5. 

Down Into the Abbey 

As we step off the stairs, Liminal peers off into the darkness of the next room and sees a mass of ghouls crouched in anticipation.

They win initiative and charge at us out of the dark, their bird-like beaks snapping in anticipation. 

The front ranks set their spears to catch the charge while Blossom, Baldekinus, and Cuncze ping the group with arrows.

Additionally, he must feed the monster some of his blood (or someone else's) each day and he will be unable to be raised from the dead should he die.
