Session Notes

  •  The group has decided to go to Rizz's Provisions to follow up on Cloc following them on the previous quest
Once at Rizz''s Provisions, the group asks Rizz about why Cloc was following us Rizz claims that Cloc was being a bit over-exuberant in his pursuit of the group Rizz actually has a proposition for work for the group
    There is a shipment she is expecting that is a couple weeks late It was coming from the west, the village of Wudu It was a shipment of arms Should have taken 7 days to get here, it is now 15 days later It was packed in several large wooden crates marked with Rizz's Provisions The group decides to take on the quest and sets out in the Western direction The group also decides to check in with the inn to see if there is anything Rory wants in the western direction
      Rory wants cool artifacts to use as display pieces in the inn He is aware of several burial mounds that may contain artifacts The group lets him know that if they find anything, they will bring it back The weather is a slight drizzle We encounter several other caravans of goods traveling the trade route Nick asks travelers about Eknon the Vex
        He learns that there are rumors of hobgoblins causing problems in the far western region of Acium We  notice that some plant growth along the road was smashed down and is starting to grow back
          The track is heading south toward the river We follow the tracks, Nick is taking point We reach the river and find a sandbar that is fordable by a wagon After crossing the river, we hear some clamoring and yelling We see four humans in leather armor that appear quite desperate and they attack! ROLL FOR INITIATIVE!
            Erica kneecaps the first bandit Nick tries to trick them into giving up using a disguise, but it doesn't work because it was a ridiculous and bad plan Walter one-hit KOs a bandit  Jin kills a bandit and his body begins floating away in the river Nick knocks out the last bandit Two dead, two alive (one unconscious, one kneecapped) END COMBAT The group questions the kneecapped guy for information about the missing shipment Jin persuades the guy to be helpful The bandit claims that our party is with "the others"
              The Others here sound like a group of mercenaries that had attacked their bandit group and killed almost everybody We find out that this bandit group did steal from Rizz's Provisions A group of mercenaries showed up and slaughtered the bandits to take back the shipment These bandits managed to escape He will help show us back to his camp, but won't take us farther The bandit camp is tucked between some hills, and there is the scent of a recent campfire in the air 15 dead bandit bodies are in the remains of the camp We find some partially emptied boxes marked with Rizz's Provisions Our arcana investigation revealed that one of the mercenaries cast the spell Fireball The investigation of the battle scene revealed that the attackers were highly skilled and dispatched the bandits extremely efficiently We manage to find 10 gp each and load up four crates on a cart Nick decides to talk to a nearby bush and see if he can find out if there are any horses nearby The holly shrub he is talking to shakes a little bit, leans to the northeast, shakes, and then releases a sulfuric smell We decide to take the crates back to Rizz
                However, we decide to omit the details about the other mercenary party Rizz is happy to see us and gives us 20 GP each
                  We also get a 10% discount on future purchases at Rizz's
