The scene opens with the characters trying to collect themselves with the news they have just heard. Some go and check out the campsite while others see to the food that was left. The Fey'ri Salamandra still acting like Paris Hilton takes one look at the accommidations and states she is not sleeping in that poor excuse for a tent. She also turns up her nose at the horrid looking piece of flesh roasting on the spit. I had her roll a wisdom check and with a 19 she recalled that when she was with her kind she ate raw flesh that still was warm and slept on the ground in mud and rain. She can't believe how far she's come. She signs and crawls into the tent to sleep. The NPC dwarf Felgar after gorging himself lets out a loud belch and does the same. After praying the cleric Sir Gebnith also tuns in leaving the Shadow Mage Galian to contimplate what he has just witnessed. The night is uneventful.

In the morning the tents disappear and more food apperars on the spit. While Felgar eats again everyone else has noticed that the two mysterious hosts have returned. Sir Gebnith and Salamandraboth notice that they are on edge . The two try and usher the party on their way. Sir Gebnith needs no more incentive and begins to leave the fortress. Galian begins to notice that both men can not speak at the same time. He also notices a strange similarity in them. He begins to conclude they are one person. Just as he is about to reveal this, a hideous green quazzit named Raspril appears in their midst. He is a vile creature with a wretched stench that makes them all vomit or dry heave(all player failed fort saves). He speaks about his master, but doesn't reveal who it is. When the hosts try and declare who he is they are wracked with pain and suffer an agonizing death. Galian tries to attack Raspril, but with a temp -2 for attack and saving vs fort he fails. Salamandra tries to charm the creature, but she too can't get over the nausa he instills. At one point she makes a comment about his prowness and he leers at her and offers her a gift from his mouth of a decaying piece of meat. She vomits and then Galian also does when he watches the creature swallow it again. Raspril disappears with a manical laugh and a wink to the fey'ri. Sir Gebnith calls from outside the walls and everyone rushes to see an undead army composed of a ghastl, two large zombies, two ghouls, a wraith, and an allip.

End Session



This week was a little short because the characters spent a lot of time getting to know each other. Everyone earned extra XP for playing their characters personality quite well. I was most impressed. Next game in two weeks. June 1st.
