((Session notes from 7/3, posted with Peran's permission:

TL;DR - 7 artifacts to be found to save the world, have 1, leads on 3, kobold battle, genie dude, epic orc fight, eggy-loking thing[sic].

The party went to talk to the historian. He explained that the pumpkin was one of 7 artifacts that could be used together to save the world. He knows of where three more can be found:

1. Deep inside the Indircil mine, guarded by monsters.
2. On an island in the center of the Ealatil lake, known for its dangerous waters. This is the closest destination.
3. Atop the Yranidro mountain, protected by a blizzard wreathing the higher reaches, and a rumored dragon at the peak. This is the farthest destination.

The historian let them keep a map of the region with all three locations marked. They decided to go to the Indircil mine first, a journey of about two and a half days. After resupplying in town to pick up more food and any necessities they might need to explore a mine, they set off, accompanied by the doofus.

As they traveled, they were set upon by a band of 4 shorties(kobolds) wielding spears. All four were dispatched in short order, with party-side casualties including moderate wounds on Ssin, severe damage to Holf's backpack(repaired by Roxy), and the destruction of some of Holf's rations.

They then encountered a large group of gryffins eating a carcass, but managed to avoid confrontation by keeping their heads down and moving on quickly. Just before they made camp for the night, they heard a strange monster call off in the distance, not the direction they were going, and disregarded it.

The next morning, they encountered some sort of wizard guy(a genie) in the middle of the road. After getting up in the party's faces, the genie apologizes and says that he thought they were somebody else, taking his leave after conjuring up some replacement rations for Holf. The rest of the second day was uneventful.

At the entrance to the mine, they encountered a group of 4 orcs arguing about a sack of treasure. Hiding and observing, they watched as one orc was killed by the others, before moving in. One rocking guitar solo of awesomeness, bid for freedom by Holf's axe, and knockout punch to the face later, the orcs were down. In the bag of loot was a bunch of random valuables, as well as a coppery "friendly-seeming" egg, which Roxy kept. Other notable loot included an amulet and a ring, both of which came up positive with a "detect magic" spell.))

This is a reminder that tomorrow (or today since it's past midnight) 7/10 at 11PM EST there will be a D&D session.

This is not a fully detailed map of the world, it's simply the areas that the Historian labeled for you. Click the picture to see the full size.

((Session notes from 7/10:

The party goes into the mine and fight a couple of spiders, then follow a curved hallway down into a section of the mine that has odd construction. Down that passage, they discover a room with waterfalls and a square button set in the middle of the floor. Holf pushes the button, and the floor collapses, plunging them and the doofus into a deep pond. Roxy manages to avoid the fall, and the others eventually make it out of the pond, even the doofus, and they continue.

They find a little sleeping room and loot a few coins before proceeding down the hallway. At a fork in the path, the left fork reveals a room full of a hundred blink dogs, which turn out to be an illusion as Roxy darts through the dogstacle course and ducks into a hole in the wall. Through the hole, she finds a room with an Azer, who shows her how to turn the lights on with a button.

Back out at the fork, the paths are now lit with many torches. Down the right fork, they find an entire city of Azer. One who can speak Common comes forward, and Roxy explains to him that they're looking for the Pumpkin. He knows what they're talking about, and explains that he knows where it is, but the way is dangerous. Just then, a distant roar sounded, answered by a crackling sound from inside Roxy's pack.

DUN DUN DUNNNN))

((Session notes from 7/17:

As the roar echoed through the cavern, the egg began to hatch, revealing a minature red dragon about the size of a housecat. Holf picked up his new pet, Little Wingy, just as a huge centipede-looking beastie burst into the town. Kelsy Snow, a paladin, happened to be exploring the same town, and joined in the fight. Unfortunately, the party forgot to purchase wrist-straps for their weapons when they were in town, so the fight got a little hairy, with multiple weapons getting tossed away by accident, but they finally brought it down.

But the trouble in the town wasn't over yet. The tarrasque appeared, stomping through the town as the party hid in alleys. Unfortunately, Holf was spotted, and he, Kelsy and Little Wingy ran back to the tunnel they entered from to hide where the tarrasque couldn't follow. While there, Little Wingy spoke to Holf, asking Holf to let him go, which he did. Little Wingy ran out and activated some kind of magic, causing the entire ceiling opened up, revealing a long distance to the sky and the silhoette of a person, who the tarrasque begins walking up the wall towards. After the tarrasque passes to the surface, the ceiling closes once more. The party swears off mushrooms from now on.

They headed down the tunnel that the nasty beasties came out of, and soon come to a stone door. The handle is trapped - coated with poison - but Roxy cleans it off and they pass through into a room containing both a sealed envelope and a deck of cards on a pedestal. The letter says:

"If you are reading this, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. The deck is yours now, and I can't take it anymore. I lost everything. I gained -everything.- I need to be rid of it. Hopefully no one will find it here."

Kelsy pocketed the Deck of Many Things, and the party was disappointed to discover that this, rather than the pumpkin, was the artifact the Azer spoke about. They exited the mine the way Kelsy came in, avoiding the lake. Along the way, Holf slew a giant bombardier beetle all by himself, and Kelsy, apparently not trusting appearances, made extra sure it was dead before they continued.

They decided that they would search for the pumpkin at the lake next, and set off in that direction.))

((Session notes from 7/24:

They started off towards the lake, an estimated journey of a little over two days. They ran into only a little trouble on the road, including an attack by two lions. While they slept the first night, Little Wingy snuck off and scared them by mimicking the howling of wolves; thankfully, the baby dragon stopped when they asked him to.

As they entered the forest, Holf begin to hear voices that nobody could hear, dozens of them chattering over each other in Common. As they proceeded through the woods, he attempted to block them out by holding his hands over his ears, with some success. The voices quieted as they left the forest - seeming to be a full day ahead of schedule - and approached the lake, though they didn't fade entirely.

At the lake, they saw several islands in the middle, as well as a dock on one of the islands, but no boat. They searched the shore for a boat, and soon located a boathouse. At this point, they got distracted and Roxy used her magic to identify her amulet - an amulet of jumping - and Holf's ring - a ring of intelligence +2. Once they finished being distracted, they searched the boathouse and found it abandoned, though there was an intact boat inside. After breaking off some old shelving to make oars, they "borrowed" the boat and set off for the islands, the first person who touched the boat - Holf - navigating, as the boat turned out to be magical but would only respond to him.

Shortly after they began, the boat begins to sink! But it was okay, because an air bubble encased the boat, and after Jade cast Light on it they continued their journey...underwater, this time. As they traveled, they were harassed by what seemed to be a Krakan, jarring their boat as it passed by. Shortly afterwards, the boat stopped moving, and a giant reptilian mouth entered the bubble, speaking to them in Common. It interrogated them about the nature of their quest, then receded from the bubble before popping it(thankfully granting them water breathing first), letting them travel once more.

Shortly after, a really ugly sea witch pops into the bubble and tries to grab Roxy's hair. The party retaliates, and they manage to take her out after a brief - but destructive, as she wielded potent fear attacks - underwater melee. As they continued to make their way along the bottom of the lake, they were attacked by a pair of sharks, one of which Myra dispatched with a single punch to the face. Roxy played some shark-fighting music, but before it was defeated the shark managed to take huge chunks out of both Kelsy and Holf.

Top priority was now finding a place to camp and rest, both to regain lost health and for Roxy to renew her daily allowance of spells.))

((Session notes from 7/31:

A fish person appeared and knocked Little Wingy, Doofus and Killian one way, and Kelsy, Holf and Roxy the other. The latter group vanished, and then reappeared a moment later, with little difference apart from a few cosmetic changes on their weapons, then the fish person swam away. Then, continuing their aquatic disaster, the giant turtle from before came back and swallowed first Holf, then Little Wingy, Killian and Kelsy, whole. Roxy followed soon after, then Doofus came last.

The End.

Just Kidding.

Upon being swallowed, they find themselves in a cavernous environment, with little moisture and no apparent stomach acid. There appears to be a few ruined buildings in here, and after a brief search Holf locates a bag of gold coins and Kelsy locates an old looking magic wand. They split the gold coins along with some treasure sold earlier, earning 580 gold pieces each. Little Wingy calls out from the basement of one of the buildings, and activates a bookcase to reveal a hidden passage leading downwards. They decided to rest here, before going down. The next morning, Roxy identifies Holf's new greataxe as an enchanted weapon that can't be removed from his grasp unless he wills it, and Kelsy's sword as a flaming sword, activated with the passphrase "you're a fluffy kitty."

As they headed down the passage, they came across an ettin, and took it down with the help of their new awesome weapons, earning 5 gold. Doofus had run ahead during the battle, so they pursued him to rescue him from the sounds of combat ahead, which turned out to be a pair of air elementals. This battle was pretty brutal, and the group took another rest to recover afterwards. After their rest, Roxy identified her crossbow as a weapon with some nice damage-boosting properties and Kelsy's magic wand as a wand of invisibility with 10 charges left.

Going further down the passage, they spot a ladder and climb it, eventually emerging outdoors on the island in the lake they'd been sailing towards before this insanity started. Which is weird, because they'd been inside the turtle. Ahead of them is an altar with what appears to be a sooty rock on it, which Killian declares to be the Philosopher's Stone. Roxy took it for safekeeping.))

I can't draw, but here's a drawing of the main D&D group anyway.

((Session notes from 8/7, posted with Peran's permission:

The party rides the turtle island back to shore, and from there decides to go back to Here to resupply. When they arrive, a woman comes up and lets them know that they're urgently wanted back at the Historian's house, and they go there. He confirms that the objects they're finding are the pumpkins, even though they're different from the first one they found, and tells them that they must put the last one on hold to go to Ironthal to see what the Lord of Illusion is up to. They rest for the night before setting off for the larger town, a journey which takes three days. After a quick shopping trip, they report to the central area to get briefed on their assignment.

In the briefing area, they met Nava, a Tiefling, and Wycker, an elf. The dwarves say that they found the man responsible for everybody waking up in that field, and that they're mounting an expedition to go into the mountains to look for him. Everybody agrees to go along, even the newcomers, and they spend the night in the city before setting out the next morning at dawn. They soon reach a mountain and are forced to leave the horses behind as they climb.

The climb up the steep mountain path presents some difficulties. Nava starts to fall, and Holf, Killian, Wycker and Kelsy leap for her. Killian grabs Nava, but Kelsy overshoots and Holf has to rescue the paladin, setting her down on the path before going to help Killian haul up the tiny tiefling. This was much harder than it should have been, but after a few minutes of work they managed to get Nava safely back on the path. Kelsy blamed Nava, and in return Holf blamed Kelsy for trying to help and failing, therefore causing all of the problems, an accusation that proved to be very ironic just a moment later when Doofus took a fall and Holf nearly dove off the mountain himself in an attempt to rescue the little guy. Killian and Kelsy try to grab Holf, but fail, and in the end it's Nava who manages to haul the barbarian back up to the path. Total party landslide averted.

After a bit more climbing, they reach a cave, and Kelsy discovers that Nava is indeed evil. Party strife is avoided when Roxy discovers a stretch of the wall that Holf then knocks down, revealing a hidden dwarf city. Upon entering, they are attacked by three large statues of dwarves: one of rock, one of mud, and one of shadow. Kelsy's shopping prowess paid off, and she managed to make super-effective use of her pick on the rock statue, as others were working to wear down the mud statue. After a lucky hit with the pick, all of the linked statues crumbled at once, much to the relief of the party.))
