The Final Inspiration

From Bralasar we set out with a caravan - the Sandvoyagers Guild which we learned too late are slavers. Over the Dustwall, through the North Knife Pass, and into the Desert of Desolation we follow silver banners marking the way every half mile. Through th...

Having escaped the collapsing sands of the resting place of the Star of Aga-Palar, the first of the 5 gems said to activate Martek's sphere of power, we return West toward a stone dragon and glimmering pyramid. After defeating a desert witch and her jacka...

Amun Re was a pretentious twat. His name is inscribed on every inch of this pyramid. There are rooms with half a dozen statues depicting him. But behind some of those statues are secrets. Ramps and rubble lead us to a conspicuously labelled "Treasure Room...

Dreana tells us of her mother - a faithful priestess of Uluru - and her quest to redeem her. She accompanies us to a healing river fed by a waterfall near some strangely fruited trees. Thallan resists temptation. More Dervish here seem overly familiar, ev...

A column of water and a switch that changes its direction. In crocodile form Fy goes up first. In awe we examine a boat, a painting of the same boat in flight, and a sarcophagus beneath yet another statue of the Pharoah. This is it. A lich priest and 3...

Through the air we sail to the Oasis of the White Palm and find a compound of Sand Voyagers, Dervish ruled by a Sheik, and ruins scattered in the desert around a lagoon. Refreshment and rooms are secured with Happy Hogan and Fi befriends rodents for intel...

In the moonlight we crept to the monolith. Speaking into the stone rolled open a door and at the bottom we were met by undead, including two ogres and a beholder. Thank the Gods for Cramus's talent with fire. We smelled, tasted, and dipped undead limbs...

Pursuing the last living cultist we found more bowls of colored and scented liquid of unknown purpose before Korga's quarters. Replacing on its stand the jackal mask that gave me the vision of Kalatherius, low drum beats sounded throughout the chamber. Mo...

Over a cup of wine on watch Belus convinced me... Met goblins forced to mine... The itsy bitsy drow boy sent out his spider friends Down came the poultry to bash the spiders in Next came Fye's lightning that made the drow boy flinch and the itsy ...

My ears are still ringing. So much destruction. Cramus and Belus blew the wall out of the SV compound building, incinerating Thumas and his goons. We were not prepared for what awaited outside... A chest full of spider eggs caused far more trouble than...

"All take heed and flee, or join the ruler of the desert Khalitherius, and his right-hand priest Badr-Al Mosak!" cried the sunburned elf. As our prisoner he would later tell us this Badr is who has the princess. Thankfully, the Sheik lives - as does his s...

His name is Cramus His key might've saved us Set Khalitherius loose on the world - hope they don't blame us Nah - just made the Timesworn Sentinels famous His first hire was Thallan and they became best pals when A bushel of fruit met the mal-in ...
