Session 7: Waiting in Stronghold Report
General Summary
This session consisted of downtime activities and further planning for the party about how they would gain admittance to the Starlit Tower and their travel plans for the future. Many new party members were inducted into the organization to include a Human (changeling) Monk that resided within the walls of Stronghold looking for adventure, a Dark Elf Fighter that had traveled to Stronghold with the party's Barbarian, a Dragonborn Druid who was exiled from their homeland and tribe, an Elven Rune Mage from the Spine of Kallex and proper introduction was given to the travelling companions of the Rogue.
However, due to the parties extended stay their whereabouts become public knowledge to more and more people which attracted the attention of the Red Smoke, a prominent crime organization in the area. This group was already looking for the rogue due to her unwittingly stealing from a gambler that was owned by their organization. Around 2 A.M. the rogue woke up, hearing sounds out in the hallway that disturbed her and made her uneasy, she crept to her door and looked out to see several gang members belonging to the Red Smoke. She thought fast, screamed and closed to door so that party members from the other rooms on the floor would be alerted to the situation.
The Druid and Fighter were the first to respond, both of them being mostly awake at the time. A battle ensued that resulted in a substantial amount of property damage, spells cast inside a breath weapon and finally, the senior gang member set the building on fire to avoid capture. He fled down the stairwell leaving the party to douse the flames before they consumed the wooden floors and walls. The rogue floated over the flames and gave chase from a distance, she tracked him to the shady end of town near the wall and watched him enter a strong, iron door near the entrance to the sewers. After making some other notes about the situation she returned to the party who had successfully put out the fires, vacated the area of bodies and finished explaining the situation to the guild leader.
