Halls of #ArdenVul, session 33

The party spends the night at the Beastmen's territory. They exchange exploration notes with the LRCP, and then are granted audience with Deino, the "Mother" of the beastmen.

After a quick glance at Deino's Hall, the party decide to Nope out of there as quickly and as politely as possible, before they are added to her menagerie.

Next stop: The Forum of Set. Initial impressions are "creepy".

Halls of #ardenvul, session 32!

The party visits the arena, and see a group of gladiators being devoured by a group of ghouls! That's entertainment!

They find some familiar faces among the audience, and team up with some friendly beastmen to deliver a large gift of Cloudcap mushrooms. They barter the gift for information on where the lost Deacon of Mitra is, and escort to the Forum of Set.

Don't fear, priestess, your heroes are coming to save you!

Halls of #ardenvul , session 31!

A bar crawl! At the troll market, the party hear about a nearby source of Cloudcap mushrooms, just next to an ale house frequented by the bestial Varumani. After some hours of harvesting, they stop for a drink with Sir Prudence, to discuss about the relationship between the trolls and the goblins. Finally, the adventure ends as they reach Hal's bar, at the entrance of the Fabled Arena.

Will the party be sober enough to face Arden Vul's challenges?

Halls of #ardenvul , session 30.

The party goes down the lifts to the troll court, and get extremely annoyed at all the tolls they have to pay. They don't manage to make many friends at the troll court, but they do learn a thing or two about the problems the Goblins are facing, and then do some shopping at the famed Troll market.

Halls of #ardenvul , session 29:

A talky session! The party spent a lot of time listening Gog tell his grievances with the Troll court, then took the famed Troll Lifts. On the way, they decided to stop by the famed "Inn of the Lost", to catch up with Arden Vul gossip from the many patrons.

They are starting to catch on that the Halls are much, much bigger than they imagined! But after so much new information, what should they be doing next?

The charms and dangers of open ended Dungeons.

Halls of #ArdenVul, session 28.

After recovering the bodies (and artifacts!) of their comrades, the party trades powerful potions for a teleport out of the dungeon by Kerbog Khan, hearing from him about troubles in the Goblin Kingdom

After recuperating, they rush to the Goblin halls to find it in disarray after the Trolls made a show of force. The Party agrees to the pleas of the Goblin King to try and get the Trolls to back off. They head to meet Gog, an exiled, friendly Troll.

Halls of #ardenvul, session 27.

Jerome, the surviving gnome, organizes an expedition to recover the corpses and equipment of his party from the Great Cave, on the hope to revive them at the temple of Mitra.

This time Thoth must have blessed the party, as their trek through the great caves is mostly uneventful. They fail to open the magic door that could provide a shortcut, but find their way to where the battle with the mummy took place. Now to bring the corpses and the loot back to Gosterwick

Halls of #ardenvul, session 26.

The party pays a heavy price for disturbing the Tomb of Lord Ptarmis.

Between a mummy and a large group of assassin vines, the party quickly breaks down. The cleric and the fighter decide to cut their losses and run, but are ambushed by a pair of mephits in the Great Cave, who burn the orc fighter to a crisp (heat metal is nasty).

Alone, hurt, and deep in the dungeon, the cleric summons Kerbog Khan and exchange party secrets for teleportation to safety.
