Dragon Slayer of the Drinking Crow Session #27- In the Reign of Miracles

-

 The elfin adventurer Petra P. sat in the Drinking Crow, fiddling with a strange 1' tall statuette of an elephant, as she waited for the other adventurers that currently comprised the crew known as the Dragon Slayers. As the party gathered, the air was a buzz with their favorite topic of late: their desperate need for t-r-e-a-s-u-r-e. After examining the maps form their latest delve along with their copy of the maps from the Burning Witch,  the group seemed to come to a consensus of exploring a door-lined corridor south of the NW elevator on Level 3. The following party departed north, towards the ruins of Orm-of-Old:

  • Copra Kaan (Level 5 Vat Spawn)
  • Crambo (Level 1 Magic-User)
    • Theela Ruul (Level 0 Amazon Exile hireling)
  • Malagath Finbaros (Level 3 Elf)
  • Petra P. (Level 1 Elf)
  • Willow the Wisp (Level 3 Illusionist)
The party returned exhausted but unscathed. They seemed to be without new spoils but possessed an excitement about plans they discussed in hushed tones.

A vision board created by Petra P.'s player Julia given by Petra in game to Copra Kaan so he can realize he is able to take on Level 5 monsters in the arena.



The following slip of paper was found stuck to the back of the vision board Petra P. gave Copra Kaan later in the week:

Copra Kään’s To-Do List:

1. Force a door. 
2. Get rebuked. 
3. Have both halves of me recognized separately. 
4. Be led by a lion. 
5. Get lost, and found. 
6. Reach death’s door. 
7. 247 is #1 in Crambo’s book. 
8. Learn about a fight, a bet, and an opportunity.

Write ups, art, or maps from the session earn 100 x PC Level XP. Let me know of any downtime activities anyone wants to take.

I know that I am waiting on what specific reduction spell Malagath is researching for his downtime segments.

Adventuring in the Twilight Age

Welcome to the Twilight Age Ever since the Empire-That-Was receded, no human endeavor under the fading red sun has reached its heights. Some say humankind no longer possesses the know-how to reach such grandeur. Others claim that confronting daily a sun that could fail them at any moment has filled folks with a spirit of defeat. Regardless of the reasons, it is in the face of such apocalyptic ennui that we find the peoples of Ur-Dun. Just south of the fallen Imperial capital city, this series of towns have become petty city-states just as embroiled in squabbles as they are in desperate dependencies fundamental to their survival. These human-led settlements are not the only civilized peoples in Ur-Dun. The mortal regents possess delicate treaties with distant Elfin Courts. The Gloaming Hills below the Slumbering Mountains are populate with small pastoral settlements of the hill dwarf (re: gnome) descendants of the folk that built the Imperial-era structures that litter the r

Downtime Activity- Find the Right Buyer

-

  Dungeons are packed with treasure. After all, isn't that why adventurers decide to plumb their depths? While treasure finds of items that spend easily like coins of precious metals, gems, and jewelry often make up the winnings of successful adventuring expeditions; they are not the only items of value a party will haul back to the surface world.  Eager to make the most out of a group's expeditions, they often grab anything that looks like one could turn over for a quick coin or two. To turn such items into gold, though, adventurers have to locate an interested party to sell these art objects, non-magical tomes, trade goods, and other valuable dungeon oddities. Below is a new downtime system for locating buyers for dungeon treasures not inherently valuable like coins or gems or easily pawned off due to being made of inherently high-value items (like jewelry, items made of precious metals, etc.). The activity is based on some of the other downtime systems designed by Ben L. we

Downtime in the Twilight Age

Outside of sessions at the table, time in the Twilight Age moves at a pace that matches our own. So one week passed in our world = one week passed in the Twilight age. This, combined with the proscription of ending each play session outside of danger, will mean players will find their characters with time to kill back in Orm between adventures at the table. What Is There Even To Do In Orm? Below is a list of downtime activities players can pursue between sessions. Most take one week to perform and those that don't will say in their rules (like magical research). Details for each activity are linked into the action title below. They are: Building an Institution - Form a gang! Build a theater troupe! Invest in a bar! To develop these and other similar enterprises, describe how you are going to develop the institution (often involving the spending of gp) and roll 2d6 for your level of success. Carousing -  See below for rules for partying it up between adventures. Carou
