Recap to Current Situation

  •  We find ourselves in the Zotogeus League and go about finding a local treasure hunter named Anje. After some gallivanting around town we get a lead that there are some small draconic creatures (kobolds) that Anje is going to lead us to. We end up attacking the kobold camp and killing all but a couple that we leave alive.

Session Notes

  • Erica begins interrogating the creature that she kneecapped
  • They try their best in very broken Common that the orb is "us" gesturing to itself
  • To try to communicate better, Jin attempts to communicate telepathically
  • Jin is able to deduce that the creature means that the orb doesn't belong to us, it is their people's treasure
  • The creature is able to tell us who currently has the orb, but said that we wouldn't want to meet her
  • They describe her as the great mother and the strongest
  • We decide to ask for more information about "The Great Mother"
    • She is very large
    • She lives beneath the earth
    • She grants all these creatures a "gift" of draconic lineage (probably by converting them to Kobolds)
  • We end up healing the two kobold. The main one we have been talking to is named Ugri. The other is Vokku.
  • We decide to investigate the camp before heading out
    • We find 4 total (1 for each of us) potions of Cure Light Wounds
    • Nick picks up a +1 shield (but he can't use his Cleric abilities while wielding it due to having the wrong holy symbol fixed by Erica)
    • We also pick up a scroll of Guiding Bolt
    • We also get ~50 gold each
      • Nick decided to give his cut back to the kobolds as part of reparations
  • During the search of the camp, we find one of the tents is better furnished than the others
  • This tent has a rug that covers a hole with a ladder
  • We decide to rest before heading down the ladder and going to The Great Mother
  • Erica attempts to affix Nick's holy symbol to his shield and is successful after a dope roll
  • Next day, Vokku has organized the camp and is in the process of burying the dead
  • Ugri joins us as we descend the ladder and head underground
  • The tunnel is heading deeper and deeper as we go
  • Eventually we reach a large chamber. There are other small holes entering the chamber
  • Ugri warns us that when we meet The Great Mother, we should be respectful
  • We head down one of the small holes in the chamber and make our way down a different tunnel
  • Eventually we reach another large chamber that is actually lit
  • The room is filled with ~100 kobolds that are chanting and gesticulating towards a large creature in the front of the room
  • The creature is something similar to The Archivist in that they are part dragon/part person
  • They are larger than The Archivist (huge, ~15 ft), but their dragon and human portions are all kind of mixed up and weird
  • We head further into the room, to have an audience with The Great Mother, telling Ugri thanks for taking us this far
  • As we enter the room, Erica deploys Boobo to do some aerial recon
    • There are exactly 53 kobolds in the chamber
    • The Great Mother is seated on a stash of shiny objects (looks like treasure)
  • We decide to approach The Great Mother with a ruse
  • We claim that we are from The Republic of Acium and searching for a group of mercenaries that were members of The Red Omen that were causing trouble
  • We are searching for leads on The Red Omen due to the Zotogeus league being a haven of lawless mercenaries and offering a warning to her about The Red Omen
  • Erica explains all this to The Great Mother
  • The Great Mother replies in a large booming voice that she doesn't know who we are speaking about
    • If they come by, she will grant us power to deal with them
  • Jin asks The Great Mother for her name and more of her history to learn more about her
  • She says her name is Hurle, Protector of Creatures and she has always been what she is
  • We tell her that we are seeking out the audience of Nibenah next
    • She doesn't really react and just spouts basically the same line about communing with her
  • Erica asks if she has any magical items to provide to us to help us on our journey
    • A small kobold runs up to us carrying a brooch that depicts a small porcupine or hedgehog
    • If you are wearing this, and somebody is trying to touch you, they take some damage due to your spiky hair
  • We decide to head back to The Archivist, but before we go, Nick checks out the surroundings with Detect Magic
    • All the kobolds have the effects of transmutation magic
    • There is a giant glowing orb inside the body of The Great Mother
  • As we turn to leave, 10 kobolds block our path
  • She insists that we commune with her before we leave, or we don't leave at all
  • We decide to try to make a break for it
  • Nick casts Thunder Wave on the kobolds blocking our path and they all die
  • We bolt down the tunnels to escape, with Jin casting magic to slow down the people behind us
