Wiki of The Dungeoneering Crew

The group had just finished off Tronald and his band of merry persons, all except Saxiron, who fled. Elenor had opened Tronalds spell book to read and his final stab at the party was an exploding spellbook. Elenor and Audra went down. Fortunately, Pyreece was able to keep them alive enough to get them through a good rest. They spent some time trying to determine what the potion that they found on Raarh did. It was kind of clear at the top and very cloudy at the bottom. It didn't look like any potion they'd seen before. They gave up on that and moved off the road to get out of sight and rest. Elenor cast an identify on the three items that they'd taken from Tronald and company. They identified the Long Bow that Taylor Swiftbow was using. It was a plus 1 bow. The cloak was a Cloak of Protection +2. The potion was a potion of flying. Audra was the only one using a Long Bow so she took it. Sairalinde' laughed at the bow but Audra pointed out that sometimes, one needs range a weapon, such as a bow, in order to hit a flying enemy. At least until it was on the ground. The Cloak of Protection went to Elenor. She's also holding the Potion of Flying. They were happy to find out later that it wasn't a half-orc laxative as Brandy had suggested earlier.

They rested for the rest of the day. Brandy had words with Selson, she let her know that she needed to be careful with Oglesby’s heart. Selson let Oglesby know about the conversation. He played it off as nothing. They rested, ate, and then finished their first rest cycle. They did a round of healing and then returned to resting for the rest of the night. During the night they saw more flashes of blue, green, and white in the distance. It appeared to be like heat lightning. They also heard a mournful howl in the distance for about 30 minutes. The next day, they set out for Keltar again. They arrived early that evening. It was still light out. They found the town to be mostly devoid of guards. They finally reached the Shattered Candle. It was a nice inn with a tavern. They ordered meals. Oglesby tried to get the lay of the land. At first they told him that they thought they’d come here on their way to the war up north. They learned from one of the patrons that apparently a couple of duchy’s had fallen to the witch. They found out that their guards had gone north to Shynkyf. They were told by yet another patron to stay inside at night. No one would explain why. They consistently told them to stay indoors at night. A bell gonged three times and people started heading out. Someone said that it was nearing dusk.

Prosser, the owner barkeep sent home the last serving girl. Dodged questions about what happens at night. He finally told them they could stay for free and that he trusted them to pay for what they used. He locked the doors and windows and made them promise not to open them and then turned in. The party went upstairs and found rooms with a good view from their windows of the streeets below and began resting. Close to midnight, they heard the clanging of metal footfalls. They finally saw an armored individual come into the light. He went to a nearby door and checked it, then checked the windows. When they got a good look at him, they saw the armor was empty except for the infernal glowing red eyes. Another one appeared. A moment later, someone came flying into the scene from the shadows. He hit the ground and stumbled and fell. Another of these wraiths came into view. The person screamed for help.

Brandy began firing on the wraiths. Audra, Pyreece, Oglesby, Selson, Kipp, and Tony went to the door. They opened it and began pouring out, telling Selson to re-bar the door behind them to protect the owner. Audra and Oglesby were still inside when one of those creatures entered. They fought him there while Pyreece, Tony, and Kipp fought them on the streets. Whenever anyone was hit by them, they became weakened. Audra took a huge hit right off the bat. When the first one that Brandy was firing on fell, the man they were fighting to help, took all of the stuff that fell with it and ran off. Pyreece went down as they finished off the last of the first four., It was a very tough fight but they managed to win. They bandaged Pyreece and left her to rest in the tavern while they collected all of the equipment that had dropped. Using a Detect Magic spell, they determined that all of it was magical. About that time they heard more screaming outside. Brandy took off first, followed by most of the rest of the party. They found a woman north and a little east of them trying to keep one of the wraiths out of her home but was likely going to fail. Brandy used a fire arrow to hit him while Audra ran up behind the creature and attacked it. As the creature turned to engage Audra, the woman was able to close her door and lock it. They finished off this one in a single round of combat.

They gathered its stuff and took it back with them. They rested the remainder of the night. Pyreece recovered a hit point by morning and woke up again. She did a little healing. About that time, the people started showing up. Prosser was surprised to find that they’d fought 5 of the creatures last night and destroyed them. The townspeople that arrived were very thankful for their assistance. They left to find the store, Grumph’s Magic Imperium. There they purchased three Extra Healing Potions. They also identified the uniforms of the wraiths as those belonging to the Ranarian. They were an group of people that settled this area and fought the barbarians that lived here a long time ago. The equipment was old but in excellent condition. The shop keeper bought most of it for 15k. They kept the 4 cloaks, two bronze chest plates, two large heavy shields, and a sword. They purchased a bunch of various arrows. They went back to the tavern and were greeted by an older lady who had made each of them an apple pie. She thanked them for saving her.

This is where they ended the session.
