Session 9 - Pincer Attack

General Summary

16th The Melting, 2063 EC

• The party made their way towards Crimiss.

• Around the ruin, they found a number of dead creatures, similar in size to goblins.

• When entering the ruin, Damicus had a vision.

• As Faephine entered the ruin, the steps to the lower passage opened - due to the proximity of the Keystone that she carried.

• Inside Crimiss, before descending to the lower levels, the party found an injured Panther that had apparently been injured fighting the creatures.

• Faephine healed the Panther and asked if it would like to join her, which it did.

• The Panther was named Pam.

• The party descended to the depths of Crimiss.

• A shadow in the walls followed the party through a long passage.

• The path forked and the doors forward alternated between opening and closing. This forced the party to split up.

• Faephine doubled back to release the horses which had been tied to trees near the entrance to the ruin.

• On her way back through the long passage, Faephine was attacked by the shadow, which tried to pull her in to the wall.

• Wildervan intervened, freeing Faephine with a crossbow bolt.

• Parmenion, Delrora and Wildervan took the route marked 'The Awakening'.

• Parmenion fell through a trap door to the floor below, landed in acid and did a 'Dante's Peak'.

• He then fought acidic oozes and found a strange weapon.

• Parmenion's sword was corroded by acid.

• Wildervan and Delrora navigated elemental runes to cross a large chamber, before disarming arcane system controlling the runes and trap doors.

• Toth, Damicus and Faephine took the route marked 'The Blink'.

• In total darkness, the three navigated twisting corridors and fought a number of large spiders.

• Pam was re-named Pan.

• Faephine and Damicus inspected a completely normal table.

• Toth ran off in to the complete darkness and stumbled in to some kind of pinching, stinging insect.
