Recap to Current Situation
- We caught a bug in a bag of holding and don't know what to do with it
Session Notes
- The group decides to carry the bag with them to the focal point of where the other Vardo are arranged around
- As we approach, Jin's brain feels itchy, like it is filled with static
- We decide to continue proceeding
- Ahead of us, we see a patch of dead grass in a clearing that has a pool of bubbling substance
- Erica decides to investigate by poking it with a stick
- The goop wraps around the stick and pulls the stick away and throws it aside
- We try to catch the insect as we release it, but it escapes into the pool
- Out of the pool comes a humanoid-insect being that is dressed in a nice suit
- It thanks the group for helping it become whole, it refers to itself as "One"
- Jin tries to talk with The One, warlock to patron (mind to mind)
- Jin asks what happened to The One
- It says that it was dead, but is not dead any longer
- It enacted a contract clause with employees to revive it
- The One doesn't know who killed it
- Jin is able to deduce that The One is a being of great power that exists outside the Prime Material Plane (PMP)
- It is some kind of abberation from another plane that is an individual being that was exiled from its plane that was otherwise full of collective beings
- When it dies, it needs to build a network of warlocks to sacrifice in order to come back to the PMP
- The One offers insects to the party to have them become employees
- It offers a reward to the party; one of the Vardo that it's former Warlock was using
- Before the party can use it, The One removes a small box from the Vardo, but now the Vardo is free to use for the party
- The Vardo is bigger on the inside! It is some kind of dimensional anomaly
- We also ask The One about the other group of Mercenaries that we ran into
- It is familiar with these mercenaries, but not much more detail beyond that
- We have dubbed the Vardo the VARDIS - acronym pending
- tentatively Vehicle And Relative Dimension In Space
- The group decides to get back on the road back to Wudu
- Day 1
- No events
- Day 2
- The group is attacked by bandits
- Roll Initiative!
- The bandit leader was knocked out and was named Bruce
- We win the fight and Jin wants to chat with the bandit
- He tries to deceive the bandit to learn info about the area
- He does not succeed, so we decide to kill Bruce
-
RIP Bruce
-
Level up to level 3
- We continue on our way to Wudu
- We see smoke rising in the sky above Wudu
