Recap to Current Situation
- Group followed some veteran mercenaries out to the ruins north of the city of Raedan
- While staking out the entrance, the group witnesses ~50 animated skeletons with fused weapons for arms rush out of the ruins heading toward Raedan
Session Notes
- The group decided to hop onto their horses and race back to Raedan ahead of the skeleton horde.
- Nick fails at animal handling, so we don't make great time, only beating the horde by ~20 minutes
- At the town, there is a contingent of guards assembled that are hastily building makeshift fortifications
- The group approaches the Vicadium's chamber and tell him about the situation
- The group agrees to help with the defense, but with the caveat that we aren't planning on dying, so if things go south, we will bounce
- The group has been assigned to defend the East entrance to town
- Because of the guards helping the group for this battle, we all get +1 AC for this battle
- Jin decides to set up some trip wire booby traps real quick by the East gate
- ROLL INITIATIVE as ~20 skeletons approach the gate
- ~10 skeletons get caught by the snares set by Jin
- After a round and a turn undead, down to ~6 skeletons left
- The group wins the fight!
- Walter tries and fails to find horses to make a getaway
- Erica is looting the field and accidentally reanimates 8 skeletons
- ROLL INITIATIVE
- Nick cheated by using channel divinity more than once a day - just for the record
- Fight ended. We figured out that you need to remove some magical bits from the skull after they have been killed or else they respawn
- We dispatch a guardsmen to each of the other gates to spread the word about removing the bits from the skull
- Short rest time!
- Several party members decided to heal up
- The sounds of battle have died down in the city
- The group decides to head to the North gate to check on how things went
- Overall, there was a fierce battle, but the skeletons have been slain
- The group approaches the Vicadium, he appears weary and tired
- He gives each member of the group 40 gold!
- The Vicadium asks the group to stick around in Raedan to help with reconstruction
- Long rest!
-
Rory the innkeeper passed away in the battle
- Rizz is still alive after the battle and her inventory seems to have grown somewhat
- We gear up with some stuff from Rizz
- Walter wants to commemorate the loss of his friend Rory
- Walter pours himself a tankard of Rory's ale and pours it out in remembrance for Rory
