Session 5

Short rest to all
 
We return to Susan and wait & watch while she performs the ritual
• Beebop dances with Norman
• Jesp & Roach are outside stealthing, but Susan closes the curtains
• The room is dimly lit--the only light is a green glow from the cauldron & the firelight
• Beebop moves inside and continues to dance
• Beebop and Norman clap to a beat together
• Susan does an incantation, the cauldron explodes up, and a crevice opens from the ground. Fizban appears
○ Fizban is upset about unions
○ Re: the fire, Fizban tells us about "Team Fiesta" in his home nation, apparently they're a crime organization
§ Fizban also suggests we look into the unionizers. He thinks if we bust the union, we'll get rid of the fires.
○ She's confused why he's still here, usually the demons disappear. He is not a demon.
• Susan re-does the incantation and a demon crawls out of the crack in the floor
○ She explains the fire vision, and he says "The chaos of undeath brings the fires AHHH"
○ Before battle, we learn that Roach's full name is Cockroach (probably)
○ Demon casts "Darkness" on itself
○ Beebop tackles beebop out the window
○ Susan gets the kill
• She offers to brew potions for us (e.g., Healing, Greater Healing, Animal Friendship, Feather Fall, Resistance, Oil of Stickiness, Oil of Slipperiness) when we pass through
 
Level 3!
 
Birch gets an ingredient list from Susan for each of the potions she makes
 
Fizban antagonizes Susan, Beebop throws Fizban through the freshly rebuilt wall. Beebop rebuilds the wall.
 
Susan gives Caiomhe 2 potions of greater healing in thanks
• She pockets one and gives one to Beebop
 
Jesp & Roach head off to town with Fizban to fetch Eliza while Caoimhe, Beebop, & Birch are staying back with Susan to forage & have a picnic
• Of note: Beebop hucked Jesp & Roach in the direction of town
• Jesp attempts to pin Fizban to a tree with daggers
• Jesp puts 100gp in his mouth from Fizban, then adds it to his bag
• Fizban dumps the rest of his 1000gp in the river, the boys recover 800gp of it (for a total of 900gp)
 
Beebop begins working on a portable treehouse for the boys
• 3% progress from every day he works on it
 
Fizban, Roach, and Jesp arrive at the tavern & see Eliza
• Sneak vortex, Fizban casts "invisibility"
 
Foraging:
• Birch finds ingredients for 1 animal friendship potion that will take susan 1 wk
• We find bullrush root & violet fungus cap, and we see a crocodile
• Birch kills a crocodile & Beebop harvests the eyes
• We give Susan all the ingredients--in a week, she will have a potion of animal friendship & a potion of greater healing for us
• Caoimhe has picked a bunch of flowers
• Beebop has felled a tree and made planks, and then has nailed planks to a tree for steps
 
Midafternoon, we all reunite on the main road
• It's an uneventful journey to the big tree
• Next: we arrive to Alderheart
