With a player turnout at a level SO LOW it hasn't been seen in OVER A YEAR, it was just Fraser and his mate-from-work Owen this week.
But we're officially back on, so I'll hopefully see more of you guys... well, this evening! Hurrah!
For Owen - Your character's florid Elf species description:
Scalbert Gumph: Sleep - Shambolic fae manifest as slobbery dullards that sleep under bridges and in abandoned mills. They shamble about in the drunken twilight seeking the unwary with groping fingers and muttering dark lullabies. More than anything they desire comely sheep and black roses and locks of maiden's hair.
They sound lovely, I'm sure you'll agree.
Session 98 - And Then There Were Two
Campaign Date:
Enemies Defeated:
- 2 tentacle-faced insectoid creatures, put to sleep then fled from (100 exp)
- A pus-filled blob of white goop, popped (250 exp)
Treasure and Equipment:
- A flatworm egg with strange properties
- Metal teeth granting a horrific bite
- Bag of pulverised bone
Events:
- Due to a sudden dearth of players, the cliffhanger everyone's-gonna-die ending of the previous session is stalled when Jumurak activates his Gaseous Form and gases on out of there. Fate of rest of party unknown. (50 exp)
- Conveniently he meets up with new arrival Guyphy near the entrance. They begin exploring. (50 exp)
- They go for the unexplored western fallopian tube, finding a door with holes all over it. Opening it with a long stick is proven to be a good idea when spikes shoot out. (50 exp)
- Inside, a bunch of scared-looking mushroom men babble and squawk around a stairway down. They are left well enough alone. (50 exp)
- Exploring the tube further, the pair come across a big ol' pile of trash with some sort of large creature shying away from their light. (50 exp)
- Calling out, they get a greeting from a man who's just sort of crawling around in the trash with no legs on. He can't get to them before the giant insectoids attack the pair. (50 exp)
- Guyphy immediately blows his Sleep spell, putting the insects into a state of torpor. Rather than risk attacking and waking them up, the pair move on to meet the guy. (50 exp)
- His name is Jeffrey, and agrees to meet them at the entrance if they kill him now. They oblige. (50 exp)

- They collect Jeffrey only to find that he now glows blue, crackles with lightning, and calls himself POWER MAN. (50 exp)
- They get him to try zapping the mushroom men huddled around the other stairs. POWERMAN does so with gusto and gets fucking melted by mushroom poison. (50 exp)
- POWERMAN stumbles back out of the birthing chamber feeling smarter but more clumsy, doesn't hold his death against them. (50 exp)
- Heading via the mushroom house, the three-strong crew investigate a cave-in in the eastern fallopian tube and grab a flatworm egg with strange properties. (50 exp)
- Another cave-in reveals the ruins of a complicated brass door. They claim a mysterious tube full of liquid from the wreckage. (50 exp)
- POWERMAN insists on learning some of the runes. He now knows how to produce beams of fire, cold and magma. He's stoked. (50 exp)

- He reappears with an inability to lie and the ability to detect lies most of the time. (50 exp)
- Giving it up for a bad job, the group go down to the gut level and meet some black-eyed grey goblins guarding the way into their dungeon area. They seem friendly, but on high alert due to recent terror attacks. (50 exp)
- After discussing things for a while, the two check out the nearby slave pit that the goblins told them about. They leave the definitely insane caged people as they are. (50 exp)
- Heading back up they manage to avoid any major issues and walk around to check out the holes POWERMAN said he could crawl through to get out of the birthing chamber, seeing soft pinkness coming from within. (50 exp)
- Playing it safe, the group retreats to the safety of the mushroom house and wonder what actually happened to the others. (50 exp)Total: 1000 exp
