A Stroll through the Woods
Ivelios, Finnan, Cayden, Liink, and I decided to take a stroll through the woods towards the north for a few days. On the path few days away from town Ivelios did something crazy!
After he just finished saying, "We are trying not to kill anyone." He shot a horse, one in a team of 6, riding full hilt towards him. 2 of the 3 people became unconscience. The 3rd was killed cause Ivelios said a bad word... So I was a bit confused since his actions didn't match his words.
OH Also the 2 alive people were kind enough to give us their gold! Though I think they just wanted us to leave them alone... and alive. So we came back to town richer than when we left it. All due to the generosity of those fine people.
Retrieval
Day 1- it’s hot today waded through the river, night time Nazzim finds us food and shelter, huge owl wakes up the party, and then leaves
Days 2,3, and 4- nothing really happens
Day 5, we get to the place where the wedding massacre had taken place. There are scarecrows that look like they are moving, no trespassing sign are on the fences. 6 zombies and 2 scarecrows look to be working the field.
Top of the barn had 3 skeletons, small humanoid archer. 8 Zombies are chopping wood out in the woods.
We then decided to enter the property very stealthy. On the roof of the main house is another skeletons. Inside the barn tethered in their stalls was a zombie horse and a skeleton horse. (really not liking it here)
We decided in through the front and ring the bell to see who was now "living" here. A small blonde haired green skinned humanoid in a dirty raggedy pinkish dress opened the door went down the stairs and walked thru the gazebo to gate, another figure appears at the doorway, half orc. He was zombified, missing an ear.(Half orc, gold dragonborn, human, elf) The little goblin? thing was very happy to see us.
Mox, the necromancer, (ALSO A RABBIT so CUTE) told us his tale of how he came to be there. Apparently, about 2 ½ weeks ago, he came across the field that was littered with dead bodies. He came upon this scene and decided to lay claim to this land.
We spoke to him for a bit and he was willing to do a trade. He was in need of some supplies. Glass, tar, nails, hammers, ect to rebuild some of the damaged buildings and for this service he would give us 3 of the 4 bodies. The dragonborn he would keep as it was "too special to part with" (CREEPY!!!). OH and there was also a small greenish stone circling his head.
We got him his supplies and took the bodies back to Glenhaven. Unfortunately, Belanor's ring was no were to be found.
OH and I made a friend with a huge owl.
Underhill so sad
4/9/1420
So I was curious about the stories that I had heard in town about Underhill, the cursed town. I went with an expedition with Timnothy, Lulubell, and Gnar, to see the place for myself. We traveled there in 2 days and found that the previous party had left the door open...
Inside we found lots of BIG translucent rats. The others were scared out of their minds, but I kept a level head and saved us all. Timnothy noticed that the rats had these red crystals in them that had previously been a red cursed gem that they had destroyed. The rats actually were dead and it was the crystal powering them, or so Lulu says.
We heard a terrible roar that Gnar said was a door mimic that was hungry. We found that the door mimic really liked Timnothy and tried to eat him several times. It was horrible and amazing to watch at the same time since the door mimic was see thru when it tried to do it. But we did a beat down and killed it super fast.
Timnothy found some maps and ledgers about the silver mine down there apparently.
After that I took a tour of the underground town and found it to be a very sad depressing place, with bodies ritually sacrificed from when they were alive.
Lulu found a journal about a little girl who made "friends" with a vampire and eventually led them basically right into Underhill. It was soo tragic.
We came back to town.
The things you do for family
4/4/1420
Having your face on a wanted poster is both awesome and kinda scary at the same time, but my Mom took care of that for me. All I had to do was find this ring that one of her friends had when they met someone named Numier.
I met up with my good friends Bruno, Norixius, Ivellios, and uh someone else. We spent 3 days camping out to reach our destination. We battled hoards of monsters throughout our time on the road, but we are awesome so it wasn't any trouble.
We reached the abandoned fort, which was east towards the Meadow Glades. There we heard a lot of commotion which was weird since we were told they were a loner. What we saw though were 4 Bugbears trying to beat down a really solid door. Though honestly the 1 bugbear was just looking at the other beat the door.
Ivellious came up with the idea to use the shape of the merchant from our other walk in the woods to make himself look tasty and lead them on a chase, while the rest of us got the door open.
It worked like a charm, the bugbears took off after Ivellious and we were able to open up the door super easy. I waited by the door for Ivellious while the other took a look inside. When Ivellious got back he talked about how he set them on fire and they were killing themselves, wish I'd seen it. Sounded super amazing.
So when we were inside I told Ivellious to watch were he stepped because there were traps on the floor that Norixius had marked. He wasn't paying attention and accidentally stepped on one and got shot in the neck with a dart. Maybe next time he'll listen.
I threw up a Locate Object so that we could find the ring. The spell led us downstairs to a room with a door that wasn't rotted off. There was alot of water on the floor and one spot looked like it was super deep. Ivellious used a mirror to see through the crack in the door and we found Numier sleeping like a baby on top of a large pile of treasure...
Mom forgot to mention they were a black dragon :-(
With my help, Ivellious was able to find the ring and a bunch of magical stuff. Norixius was able to lift a couple of gems from the pile. We were out the door when we heard a loud crash from upstairs, the bugbears were back!
We quickly drank some potions of water breathing and quickly dove for the deep end of the water and hid. Numier finally had it with the bugbears and went to go deal with them. 2 of our members took the opportunity to raid some more of the dragons hoard while Ivellious kept a lookout with his owl outside.
Poor bugbears... We were able to get out without being seen through the underwater passageway that lead out of the fort. We made our way back to Mom and were welcomed into the family.
My name is Beatricks Nightingale and Glenhaven is my home now.
The Stinky Job

Well the past few days have certainly been interesting. I met up again with Norixius and Oculo and met a new friend named Mr. Timnothy with an N. We took a job from the board for Dorfax to retrieve some "cattle" for him for cheese making and other various interesting things. We were even given some of the cheese to try. I uh won't be having anymore, it's too uh rich for my taste. We had to travel 2 days to n from Glenhaven to get the KettleBell Passes. Someone ate our food and drank all the water. Dunno who did it but not nice.
We met with the caravan of Pentani, Dorfax's friend, to get them. He was sooo loathe to part with the creatures, but we told him he must.With great reluctance he handed them over and we began our journey back.
The first night we slept and on my watch I found these little green people made of vines? I think. They were smaller than Mr. Tim! We had a mini battle of wills which I of course one. Mr. Tim came over and started talking gibberish to them and then outta the blue started playing his fiddle and the little green ppl started to dance kinda. Apparently they really like Mr. Tim. I can see why.
During the second day of travel we had rocks thrown at us! We had to leave some of our stuff behind to get away! Ugh I thought just dealing with the smell was bad...
The final night we were attacked by the boulder ppl again. Only this time they came close enough to kill. We had almost killed off the first when the second one came out and started attacking. As we battled the little green ppl came to help! They liked Mr. Tim soooo much they helped us out. They are pretty cute, I think they are growing on me.
We finally made it back to camp! I was so happy to release these creatures into the care of Dorfax. He offered up some Plague Milk to try when he starts producing...I hope its better than the cheese. Well I'm off to take a bath for a few hours. Hopefully the stench will come off...
FOUND A GUNK
I found 2 new friends today. Jor Haldon n Norixius went with me n Theodos to find out who Gunk was. This was a super sneaky mission. We got to the cave with no issues and proceeded to be AMAZING sneaky ppl. There was a slick slope that we found and managed to climb down super easy. We were able to disable the traps that were riddling the underground cave system. Theodos did eat some dried up purple mushrooms and claimed they tasted like butterscotch. He acted even funnier than usual for a while after.
We found a painted picture of a door on a wall with a riddle on it. We didn't stop to check it out though since we were on a mission to find out who Gunk was. We sneaky sneaked all the way up to these goblins and a big hairy guy who bossed them around. We found out that the big hairy guy was actually GUNK! We killed him pretty easily and came back to town victorious.
Day 1
Today I made a new friends! Naazim seems to know alot about nature and stuff. I also met up with Oculo and Theodus again. We ventured south cause we heard about a lady who was nice to ppl in the watering hole, bog area. I gave her an Electum and she splashed me with hot water, though it didn't burn. It was pretty neat. We met some of the Knights who weren't very well hidden and they told us stuff. We went passed the perimeter around the settlement to the south and found these fungus that hurt. Oculo went down again and his flesh kinda rotted a bit. I helped him back up but I got hurt too :-(
We tried to find someplace to rest n recover but all we did is find a cave in a hill where apparently a Gunk lives. A blue quickling told us. The blue guy was super fast so we couldn't see him very well. He/she/it was the one that told us about Gunk being ruler of the people under the hill. He threw apples at us so we kinda just left.
As we were heading back we found tracks that may or may not be basalisk tracks, but they were heading perpendicular to Glenhaven so we didn'f follow them, but we did note the location.
When we got back to town we talked to Dorfax at the Nameless Tavern about all the stuff that was going on down south. He said we did good about not dying out there :-) He also said that if we could try and confirm what or who this Gunk is to the south that would be great and also maybe deal with the basalisk too. So there's lots to do down South in the near future.
OH! Dorfax didn't kill a baslisk, he just crushed an egg, so you know. He doesn't seem to like it when people bring it up.
OH OH! Peter is a merchant who takes Electum for stuff, but I don't know what yet.
Arrival
Entry 1
We arrived at the site of future new n improved Glen something or other. My fellow guard ppl r really funny n awesome. Ones likes to fall down n get back up n fall again. One loves humping his stick and the last one likes to bleed from his nose for no apparent reason. We found an old brothel btw. It wasn't very interesting. Oh!! We came across some gnolls who liked humping pigs n chickens. We couldn't have them molesting our livestock soooo we nicely told them to leave forever and they did. It was really nice of them.
