Episode One Recap

  • Zirkin, Thondar and Rody are long acquaintances, and have just met everyone but Limp D and Gorgar outside of Luskan at the Goldrun Farm. Rapid Shadow and Limp D have traveled together for several weeks at this point, and met Gorgar and Noah along the way a few weeks back. Gorgar and Noah spent the better part of the late spring/early summer travelling together from the eastern part of the Savage Frontier.
  • You all struggled to find each other in the city of Luskan.  Those of you outside the town found a way in near the river, where the walls end.  Gorgar and Limp D manage to escape and find their way to the others.  Zirkin, Thondar and Rody, narrowly avoid an enormous red dragon's fiery breath as it levelled the city around them.  Zirkin has failed to deliver the message to Kurth, as far as he knows.  The message was last given to Captain Grog Swiller at the Seven Sails Inn.
  • Gorgar and Limp D failed to locate Cronus, a healer at the Hall of Warriors (a temple of Tempus).
  • The group did finally find the Harper safe house as the city crumbled around them.  After a brief respite, they made their way to the ruins of Illusk, to hide somewhere safe from the attack.  It had become clear the town was about to be completely overrun.  There was a massive goblin army at the north gate; an orcish horde had broken through the southern walls with the help of the red dragon, who was now dismantling the Hosttower of the Arcane (home to many extremely powerful mages).  Furthermore the attack from the sea was relentless, dozens of ships were firing catapult shots of flaming pitch, igniting those parts of town spared by the dragon.
  • You all enter the Ruins of Illusk and descend into the crypt.  You battle various undead, and for a moment, Noah is possessed by a ghost or some other undead force.  This force was seemingly using a hall full of paintings as a magical way into the minds of the players.
  • After several battles you find a place to rest and recover, hidden behind a secret door, at the presumed entrance to a further underdark area.
