Session Notes
The Zotogeus League is a loose confederation of regional powers and warlords rather than an organized nation. It consists of all races, but is weighted a bit toward the more monstrous races.We suddenly find ourselves in a Council of the Few Building and surprise the attendant in the building, Deb.The VARDIS and Porkchop has come with us and is waiting outside the building.She says that we should talk to Anje for help, a local "finder of things"He is a large troll with an eyepatch
Deb gives us a hand-drawn map full of cute caricatures, turns out that she is a bit of a budding artist and likes drawing chibi-style stuffStepping out of the building, it is a very run-down town, smelling of sewage and buildings that are all different types of architecture stylesThe weather is currently a bit chilly with a light breezeWe decide to head into the local tavern, The Rat CatchIt is run by a troll named Zolkis
Walter makes friends with Zolkis and gets some infoHe suggests that Anje usually comes back each nightHe also says to seek out the Packrats if you are looking for a good time
We then head to Olinfehr's Curiosities to check it outIt is run by an over-eager little goblin named OlinfehrErica decides to show him The Snow Globe and presents herself as a fellow collectorShe says that we have come from The Grayogen EmpireOlinfehr gives Erica a small sending pebble so that he can tell us when Anje swings back by againWe head out to the Runsemith on the outskirts of townComing up on a tent outside of town, we see a bunch of weapons stuck in the ground around the tent. Investigating these, it looks like they are cursed magical weaponsThe weather is currently a bit chilly with a light breezeAs we approach the tent, a loud explosion occurs and a big puff of smoke comes out of the tentErica heads into the tent as Jin sticks head in to listenThe shop is being run by a scraggly looking human named David TentantThe puff of smoke we saw is his finishing crafting a daggerHe says that he is worried about moving this dagger as it could potentially cut space and timeErica, upon investigating, can only really tell that it is a magical dagger, nothing elseJin uses his mage hand and nudges the dagger just a little bitNothing happensDavid tosses the dagger out of the tent and declares it another failureJin decides to ask David about imbuing necromancy magic into things...trying to get into some of the necromancy architecture and items we have seen from The Red Orb structures in the pastHe says that necromancy is a way to imbue souls into something, but that thing basically can just follow rote instructions, it can't really think for itselfWe then get a call over the pebble that Anje is back at Olinfehr'sWhen we get there, there is a very large troll wearing an eyepatchWhen we talk with Anje about the obsidian orb, he says he has a lead and that he can lead us to it, but in return, he wants credit with the Council of the FewNick buys a javelin of lightning/thunder before we leaveAnje leads us north of the town, out in the wildernessOn the way, he tells us that he saw very tiny little people with draconic features (kobolds) in a certain area and suspects that they are related to the draconic artifact we asked aboutWe get there and come up with a plan for Nick to disguise himself as a kobold and approach the groupThe rest of the group hides some distance awayNick is immediately stopped and questionedWe try to bluff our way through as an inspector...but it doesn't work, so we are rolling initiativeRoll Initiative!We end up fighting against the kobolds. We kill them pretty mercilessly, but save a couple from death.We beat up two pretty bad, but left them alive and then Erica knecapped one
