Session 15 DM journal
How to get a wedding invitation.

Who we met:
The party killed everyone new they met.
Samis had notes on a few people and places:
Huldramose. Samis says that this is a town of Sif worshippers (druids no less) on the Caratan Peninsula. People in Cherbourg will know where to find it.

Collected loot:
-1,000 GP paid to get Verxatitus raised.
2089 GP
a vellum scroll containing the written saga of the Northern hero Hjalmar and his battle with the great ice serpent of Grokeheim held in a tooled, black leather case chased in gold (worth 50 gp
12 pounds of silver trade bars (worth 60 gp
gold ring (worth 50 gp)
a bloodstone circlet (worth 250 gp a mahogany harp with brass strings (worth 100 gp and
two potions of healing.
Two potions of Superior Healing
One potion of Exceptional Healing
Some bones which have been decorated with scrimshaw, providing eerily beautiful decoration. One shinbone has been worked into a scroll case with elaborate scrollwork carved into its exterior, worth 50 gp to someone uncaring of the macabre material from which it is crafted.
1 Heward’s Handy Haversack
1 Shield +1, Wooden
1 boat. (Karve) Capable of carrying 9 people and their gear and trade goods. 5,000 GP.
Wrapped in a bear skin and shoved between the chest and the wall are a +1 longsword and a +1 shield. There are distinctive runic patterns on the shield’s border and the sword’s scabbard that mark them as a matching set. A message is carved crudely into the wood on the inside of the shield as if the writer carved it hurriedly with whatever sharp tool was at-hand: “If you find this, I beseech you to return my shield and blade to my shield sisters in Huldramose. Tell them Randgrid Ironeyes died well.”
A scroll of tanned humanoid skin sits atop the iron-bound chest. The three wax seals that once held it closed have been broken. The first seal is a skull pressed into red wax. The second is a mouth of fangs pressed into white wax. The final seal is a bear’s paw, stamped into black wax. A successful DC 15 Intelligence (Religion) check identifies them as the symbols of Marena, Vardesain, and Chernobog, respectively. A message is penned in blood on the scroll:

"You have been judged worthy to attend and stand witness to the Blood Wedding. By this ritual, we bind the Devouring Worm and the Red Goddess in dark matrimony, under the auspice of the Lord of Night. Thus we multiply their glory in the realms beyond and increase the power of their followers here on Midgard. Make your way to the Midnight Temple. The ceremony takes place the night of the next new moon. When the pact is complete, we shall celebrate with a glorious and bloody feast worthy of sating all the faithful who attend."

XP. 10,226 + 2260 = 12,486
14,000 needed for 6th

Date: 5 days have passed. It is morning on May 21st. Verxatitus lives again. You stand of the steps of the Temple of Jupiter in Rennes. The sun is shining.

Rule Updates:
Swimming! Use an action to swim (unless you have a swim speed). Can tread water and attack. Swimming is an Athletics check. DC 10 in a pool, 12 in open sea. At advantage if no armor. Disadvantage for anything over light armor. If you fail, you do not move and fail to breathe. Our boat, without an active sailor, will move 5’ per round. Attacking while swimming is done at Disadvantage (except spear like weapons).

Updating rules for knocking people out. When attempting to knock people out, you attack with a melee weapon at disadvantage. If they go to 0 hit points, they get a con save with the DC = to damage done. If they fail, they were killed.
