Session 54 - Spooky Scary Skeletons

A fairly subdued session this week, due in part no doubt to my failing to confirm that it is, in fact, back on.

So it's back on, everybody!

Nevertheless! The gang, including new guy Alphonse the Gentleman Barbarian from Alsace, delved into the mausoleum dungeon and basically missed every attack ever and got felt up by skeletons.

Good times, great classic misses. See you guys next week!
