Guardians of Devotion Session 01 Report
The Heroes Gather
General Summary
Each party member comes out of character creation to find themselves in the Guild Hall of the Guardians of Devotion. Most of the players choose to hit the Blue Button which marks them as new players to others in the hall. After they meet each other and start to get to know the staff, they head off to speak with Chester, the personable and charismatic front desk person who also seems to hand out assignments.
As Chester is speaking with them, a young boy bursts into the lobby begging to speak with Chester instantly. The group he works for, Guilderoy Shipping and Mercantile Co., lost a shipment of important goods. It had left Dyvers with no problem, but never emerged from the Gnarley Forest. Chester had just the answer, send these new members out to find and bring back the shipment.
The party was ported to the edge of the forest and started after the wagon. Easily finding the spot the wagon left the established road, the party found evidence that the horses had been drugged and sprinted off out of control into the woods. Following the trail of destruction left by the wagon, the party was ambushed by a lone scout. The players deftly defeated their opponent, though there was a pretty interesting exchange as the Fighter and the Scout took turns missing each other.
Traveling deeper into the woods, the party found the wagon stuck in a small clearing, the horses nowhere to be found. Keen insight on behalf of the party alerted them to the presence of an ambush, but the party entered the area anyways knowing they needed the cargo. The party fought well, defeating each opponent and recovering the merchandise. Of note, Zaynathan pulled a unique looking tunic off of the leader of group meant to ambush them. The party then used their unique potions and picked up the crates they had come for.
As they neared the edge of the forest where their portal was left they noticed a bear was hanging around. The party was able to get the bear away from the portal and to make it through without having to fight the large creature. Returning home, Chester congratulated them on their fine work.
