Downtime In the Village

Mechtild is fully healed with a prosthetic leg and returns to delve into Nightwick. We're also joined by the cleric Maelwyn. Mechtild spent the past weeks searching for rumors about treasure in the abbey and finds two: 1) the Sword Brothers (founders of Nightwick Abbey) once set up a chapel in the abbey containing a relic from the desert land. The relic is a shard from the god of law which was turned into a sword and 2) there is an amulet of Protection from Demons somewhere in the abbey. The party decides to journey to level 2 in search of an orange juicing machine that they think can be worth quite a bit.

It is a misty, grey day as the party sets out early for Nightwick Abbey. The fey-touched changelings in the party, Liminal Space and Verinka, look especially weird in the fog.

Downtime In the Village

In the past week, Mechtild the fighter continued her healing, she should be fully recovered by next week. Mayfly the conjurer has returned from his travels and studies and rejoins the party. He identifies the glowing blue sword that we took from the goblins as "Slasher," a +2 sword. We give it to Anston, a new fighter in the party. Sotar spent the week studying the books he has recovered from Nightwick. He uncovers two pieces of information - the demon Armadeus, whose servant the party has dealt with previously, seems to be especially strong within the Dark Country, where Nightwick is. Second, a long time ago, a baron of Averwaw sent his daughter to the abbey as a lay nun. Some in the party speculate that this could be the crying woman previously encountered, but we have no definite connection.

We decide to return to level two and attempt to steal a magical device we once found there capable of producing lightning. Mayfly prepares a scroll of Floating Disk in preparation.

Downtime In the Village

Last week we rescued several people from the clutches of the goblins. On our way back to the village, one of the women insists that she must return to her own village in the fog-bound forest and departs from the group. Later in the week, we hear a report from a drunken woodsman that he saw a wolf skin in the woods, left as if its bones "walked right out of it.” He returned to the same spot later and the skin was gone, but a woman's footprints leading right to where it was. It would appear we rescued a werewolf last week.

Downtime In the Village

Since last week, Mayfly the Magician stopped by the Medusa's Head and translated the runes on Mechtild's new magic sword. "Steel" the runes read. It seems a bit anticlimactic for a magic sword, but maybe once we see it in action our minds will be changed. However, that won't happen yet. Mechtild's still healing from losing a leg and will be out for a few more weeks (though she can pay for better treatments to quicken her healing). Verinka and Liminal both go carousing during the week, in anticipation of the upcoming feast day of St. Toad (on the 1st of Shocktober). In his drunkenness, Liminal Space burns down several houses and is no longer allowed into the Medusa's Head.

We covered a lot of ground this week.

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...

Nightwick Abbey - Session 30

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.
