Dungeon Crawl Classics – Twenty-second Session

Twenty-second Session – The party braves Bat Country to go to the Goblin Spires which turn out to be the entry point to the Temple of the Carnifex.

We find a nice little monastery (with carved trees like Aladzha Monastery, you should go visit it if you’re in eastern Bulgaria!) that distracts us with tales of a nearby goblin tribe living in a stone spire.

Unseen by all, a shadowy presence at the end of the table takes sudden, bloodthirsty interest. Gallfred Weasel is always eager to slaughter the goblin races.

So we go there; we thought it was a distraction from our search for the Temple of Carnifex but it turned out to be the antechamber to the place, and suddenly we are in DCC Jewels of the Carnifex.

My favorite part was Hemp finding a starving shocker lizard that he adopts to nurse back to health. I name it “Zipzap.” Once that’s done (after we leave the dungeon, not this session):

Zipzap the shocker lizard
Lizard, shocker: Init +2; Atk bite +1 melee (1d4); AC 14; HD 2d8; hp 4; MV 40’ or climb 20’; Act 1d20; SA electrical shock 1d8, Ref save DC 12 for half; SV Fort +2, Ref +3, Will -2; AL N.

Rest of the session’s pretty self explanatory dungeoneering, read all about it in the summary!
