Session 141 - October 12th, 2023 Report
General Summary
Feywild Day 38 - Travel Day 20 - Fall 2
- After the fight, Alethra is less than half health, and so Merry casts a few healing spells on Alethra so that she is closer to being healthy.
- Alethra checks the bodies to see what she can find on those three trolls, and she finds an apple core, some rocks and a sling shot, a few coppers, and 2 dice which are made for human sized creatures. After which Beartrum and Alethra move the bodies into the brush so that they can decompose off the road.
- Rolen has a ring of mending and is able to look at the back axel and make a few repairs, but Roth is not sure if the cart will hold for longer travel, and will need some more mending before it is good to use for longer travel.
- Roth uses Tensnor's floating disk to take the weight off the back axel and moves the cart a mile down the road, where the part rests for the afternoon, losing half a day of travel.
- Long rest.
- Rolen uses the ring of mending to help get the cart back to a workable state, and the 1st hour is just the cart being pulled, and slowly over the morning, more and more people getting on the cart and it seems to be patched up well enough to get the party to the Fall Court.
- About lunch time, Roth sees a group of owl bears on the road eating something. The group is not sure if they can go around, and are thinking about ways to do that when Beartrum has an idea. He gets a little closer and communicates with the owlbears and then has Olly drop some elk steaks in the woods away from the road, 5, so one for each owl bear. The owl bears take the suggestion and move off the road and take the remains of the carcass with them. The owl bears then sit and watch the party walk by, and not doing anything.
- Beartrum shares some reminisces about his time growing up with the stone giants, and Merry then thinks of ways to get owl bear friends for Beartrum, or to get Beartrum back to visit with his family, and possibly start an owl bear revolution.
- The party then learns that scouts in the Fall Feywilde often ride either owl bears or black bears.
- Long rest
- The party finds out that a thick fog has settled over the forest and there is a limited site of 30 ft instead of the normal day light.
- Olly flies up above the fog bank, unable to see a real end or guess when the fog will lift.
- The party travels at a normal pace on the straight road without any issue, and the fog lifts towards the end of the day.
- The party travels on, with the entire party hearing a noise after lunch. Int Saving throw, Merry, Beartrum, and Rolen, and all entranced by the will-o'-wisps (10), which are off the road a bit, and in a large mass of hooving lights.
- Rolen, Merry, and Beartrum all start to walk towards the mass of lights away in the trees, so Roth then casts silence and tries to help break the charm, but it does not work. Alethra then casts fog cloud in front of the charmed people to try and slow them down.
- Aurora then runs over to Rolen and shakes him, causing him to save, and "wake up", and then they both return to the cart and calm down the horses.
- Alethra then drops the fog cloud and Roth kills one wisp, while Olly and Branwen try to help and shake Merry and Beartrum out of their charmed condition. Alethra casts shatter and tries to take out two of the wisps, while Roth kills one more wisp. Alethra takes a shock from the wisp.
- Olly casts darkness on the charmed group and Roth casts silence, while Branwen helps out and Alethra tries to stop Beartrum from moving, not really succeeding, but due to the many hampering effects, both Merry and Beartrum save, with Beartrum heading back to the road.
- Several more orbs are killed and Alethra casts a fireball, Roth files up in the trees and sneakily flies. Alethra and Merry each take out a wisp, and the last two wisps who were floating over the pond disapear. Roth casts detect magic to confirm a magic is still active, and he suggest to Alethra via Olly that a large fireball or area of affect spell would be welcome.
- Olly drops a dancing lights on the center of where Merry drops a high level Freezing Sphere, which seems to take out the last two wisps and leaves a small coat of ice all around the area.
- Beartrum, Olly, and Merry stay and guard the cart while Roth casts water breathing on himself and Alethra, who both want to explore the bottom of the pond and see what is there. Using a ring and stone of warmth to battle temperature, they go down about 60 ft in the small pond.
- Perception of 37, 26 nature to see what is all there. Fey creatures, owl bears, deer and various small woodland creatures, mostly just bones at this time. Roth finds rotting bow and rusted swords, as well as a shield and bow in mint condition, an amulet, a tan bag that looks familiar, and a large shield. Using the wand of secrets, a small card case is under a rock.
- Counting, it looks like 18 fey elves ended existance at the bottom of the lake, far less than the 10 wisps who haunted above the water.
- Rolen and Aurora do not know a great deal about the wisps, but can help with the treasure, if it has name or belongs to a family, then it would be best to return the item, and that will usually allow for a reward. They both go to sleep after dinner, allowing the party to identify the items in peace.
- Shield, +1 Coat of Arms and the motto "While I breathe, I hope" engraved on the inside. Offer resistance to piercing damage.
- Bag of Tricks - Tan, can summond up to 3 creatures a day, and this bag can summon between 8 items, including a jackel, ape, baboon, tiger, black bear, and giant hyena.
- A long bow, a +1 recurved bow that was likely prized from a scout or ranger.
- An amulet of the planes, which is cursed.
- A partial Deck of Illusions, 24 cards in a small leather pouch with the name Orchid Tumblefoot.
- The party then long rests.
