After the good ship Corgi was repaired and restocked, the party of adventurers were eager to reach the sea.

First mate, Cynthia takes Konrad aside on deck and chats with him about the Captain’s immortality and the members of the crew. She also peppers him with questions about how he came to have a cat’s head as well as claws. Konrad answered her questions in a cordial manner while the rest of the party was still in the galley eating… all except for Kat, who was feeling quite sea sick and stayed resting in a bunk.

After she finishes with her questions, Cynthia shares a story of the devastation caused by the first war of the infected. Konrad tells her that the dragon Val wants to fix the problem of the infected and so the party of adventurers are working under that directive. Val believes that Nethandric is the key as only a powerful magic user can repair the barriers between the planes of existence.

Nethandric has been alive for thousands of years ... Read more »

Dearest Mother,

 

I know it’s been a bit since I’ve written. I’m doing well though, or better now that I and some of my friends got rid of a rather nasty fungal infection. We had to cure it in the most horrible way though. We had to bathe in a barrel of FINE Brandy. One of the finest I’ve ever seen and smelled, since I couldn’t taste a drop of it. It was an absolute waste of something such a quality product, but apparently this cursed captain only smuggles the best.

 

The ship was in desperate need of repairs and the captain filled us in on his plan to snatch some loot from another smuggler to fund the repairs. We anchored in a cove about a day from the town in which the smuggler lived. The captain had scouted out the town, and told us about the walled mansion in which the smuggler lived around the town that supported him. H ... Read more »

You know that expression about 'too many cooks'? Wait, no, not that one... I mean 'out of the frying pan, into the fire'? Yeah, that one... Well, that's pretty much what happened...

Though her comrades still had no idea what was happening, Dar-wynn survived the incident with the cursed dagger and went to the edge of the ship to call down to the boat in the water.

Brega tied the rope around her and placed the Ring of Flight onto her finger. She floated up to talk to Dar-wynn but after a few minutes, Brega fell to the boat below. She injured herself, but not seriously.

The men rowing the boat became upset and threatened to leave when they heard Dar-wynn invoking the name of the dead captain – Bartimaeus.

Brega tried to reason with the men but they are determined to leave. Kat had successfully climbed up to the deck of the ghost ship using the rope and she then pulled Konrad and Brega up behind her.

Brega tried the ring agai ... Read more »

When we last saw our heroes , they had just arrived in West Haven. They found death everywhere except in the center of town they found a curious person named Drazul. It becomes obvious that she is infected with the demonic disease. Surrounded by scores of dead bodies, she raises them as mindless zombies to attack us. Through sheer force of will, Konraad is able to dispatch almost all of them with one swift stroke.
Unfortunately, Drazul is able to dominate Konraad's mine and forces him to attack Dar-Wynn. Luckily she is resilient and able to withstand his attacks. Eventually Konraad is able to free himself from Drazul's bonds. Several giant zombies arrive to support their lesser kin. They are easily dealt with as well. Once the undead are wiped out, Drazul, contemplating her defeat, stares off into the distance, laughing. What she is looking at are hoards of evil creatures encroaching towards West Haven.
At that moment, Drazul collapses into a swarm of flies leaving behind ... Read more »

Dearest Mother,

You know how you’ve said I always meet the most interesting people.  I think I’ve meet more interesting people in the last couple of days than almost anyone does in a lifetime.  I meet a tree that used to be a dwarf, a ‘Doom’ Priest that appeared in a column of flame and a man named Drazule that loves the dead way more than is legal anywhere.  

The tree wasn’t too bad despite enthralling us and all the bones at laying at its roots.  I let it pick me up and we had a nice chat.  It even gave us a heads up about infected nearby.  What was sad, is it hardly remembered being a dwarf so many years ago in the mountain.  I suppose it’s better that way or it would have gone mad with loneliness.

Now the ‘Doom’ Priest was an interesting fellow.  I don’t think we got on very well since I ended up wrapp ... Read more »
