Session 18: Celebrating Calamity Report

General Summary

Sadly with the party splitting up there was a lot of time where players had nothing to do, otherwise session was alright, some of what the NPCs were saying didnt turn out right but oh well

The players met with Mannerhiem to discuss how to get the party into the tower so they can uncover how many cultists there are, what weapons and powers they have and who they have (their power levels and shit) and so on. The party came up with the idea to spare White Guard lives and use the invitations for Human Independence Day to get inside the tower grounds, then cause a diversion for Khasari to slip inside

Kaden spoke with Bjorn and convinced the Jarl to call for aid and try to organize the clans a bit more and spoke with Thrym of the giants, learning that they are marching to do battle with a swarm of dragons in the north alongside Garruk and others.

Raime prevented Ardenkina from going to the celebration and the party set off, finding the no-man's land to be crawling with undead they were welcomed inside by the cultists and got to see several interesting things going on:

There are multiple interesting emmissaries from various parties such as nations, organizations and even demigods, all here to try and conduct diplomacy with the cult who in turn seems willing to do so in good faith and so far, havent attacked anyone despite many of the guests being non-human

The cultists are trying to hide their true numbers using various tactics to inflate their size and power, but it seems they've pulled in cultists from across the world to gather for the celebration here today

The party remained outside conversing with various people while Adamah performed a distraction to let Khasari slip inside a secret entrance she found, Khasari then traveled into the tower and uncovered many interesting things such as:

----- Layer Zero: Kitchen, store rooms, armory, chapel, forge

Layer One Down: Administration, Records, Logistics, Teleportation Room

Layer Two Down: Prison, Interogation, Medical, Lloyd's room

------- On this layer Khasari saw some prisoners of Lloyd such as Xaphan the angel, Soot the dwarf, unit 025 the mechadrone, Pocahan the dark elf, Puck the imp and Dio the warrior, all playthings of Lloyd, she spoke with Xaphan and learned what was on the other layers and a little bit about each prisoner, to get an inspiration, you must tell me which of the prisoners you would most like to speak with if given the chance.

Layer Three Down: Treasury, Trophy room, Drug Lab, Gustavo's room

Layer Four Down: Arcane energy, Amina's room

Layer Five Down: Divine energy, Yeshua's room

Layer Six Down: Johann's room

Layer Seven Down: Unknown

Layer One Up: Officer's Quarters, Workshop, Forge, Johns room

Layer Two Up: Sparing Room, Magic Training Room, War Room, Tiasho's room

Layer Three Up: Observation, Meditation, Shrine, Stargazing

Session ended with Khasari coming up from the Layer Two Down and the party still outside talking to people
