Fifth Session (13 page pdf) – Though we’ve killed Staunton Vhane, there’s a lower level that still needs clearing in Drezen. “Someone’s in my root cellar. Someone with a fresh soul!”
First we do loot distribution. I should do a separate post with our 3l33t loot tracking and distribution spreadsheet format, it makes it easy to keep up with it all. You find literally 100 different things per AP volume and tracking it needs some rigor.
The dumb demonblood addict has run off again. We head into the dungeons of Drezen to find him and the Sword of Valor (really a banner, in a case of false advertising). Vampires and demons and such annoy us until we’re finally at a loss as to where to go, we have to bring in Staunton Vhane’s brother Joran to do the dwarf thing and show us the secret door we can’t find.
Inside, we find the Corruption Forge and a bunch of salamanders. I love salamanders, I don’t know why. Probably the super boss AD&D MM art. Everyone else starts taking the slow way down and I just swashbuckler-swing down there, get in the middle of ’em and start whaling away. It hurts, but a lot of my Iron Mountain and Champion of Irori powers have to do with staying in one place and being surrounded…
Then it’s a priestess and schir demons and crystal widgets. Calathe actually has shatter for some reason (well, there have been a lot of demonic crystals in this campaign) and she brings it down while we destroy them in detail.
That salamander art is great, you’re right. It’s perfect for a tattoo, if one was into that sort of thing.
I’d like to see your loot spreadsheet; when my group plays Pathfinder I always get lumbered with the accounting job and the campaigns throw all sorts of random junk at you that it becomes a pain to track.
Can do, been meaning to share it but had to anonymize and upload to somewhere else (wordpress.com won’t let you upload many file types).
Published upon your request!
I saw that earlier today. It looks like just the sort of thing my group needs. shall tell them all about it!
