New Backstory:
- Odo Grumblebelch had expected her stature as a tribal leader to gain her a position of prestige as an overseer in the Grumblebelch mines, but was instead betrayed by the social order and pigeonholed into the roles given to the rare Dwarf women. +1 Con score.

- Jojo Fullbeard wasn't sent to the past to save her father as she'd always maintained - instead she was banished into the past after kissing someone she shouldn't have. +1 HD of HP for the rest of the session if you romance someone.
- Julian's life was changed forever by a being from "down under" who set him on his career in painting, which eventually led to his possession by Aximander. +1 to Reaction Rolls with subterranean beings.

Events:
--- Desecration of the Tomb
- Jojo punches open the tomb of the Elf hero Archaeopteryx and grabs out the dusty bones within. Sydney chucks the bones into the time clock and rewinds it back... and back... and back... until a withered corpse reappears and he can eat the withered brain.
- With a little aperitif of Mindflayer Juice, Sydney devours the brain and gains a lot of hate, extremely outdated Elvish ideals, and some deeper insights into the Elven mind.
--- A Friendly Chat
- With all that suitably looted, the party decides to head off to the pub with their winnings to carouse and make merry!
- But first, they want to get eyes on this Marlingspike they've heard so much about.
- They climb up the mountain a ways, and spot some man-shaped shrubberies sunning themselves on rocks further down. It's Bracklings! Distantly, they see a little band of Halflings wandering the hills.
- Odo calls down to the Bracklings, and they look up! Wooden mask-faces look up and smile! Their limbs are woody and thorny, and their leader Gustav Peartree walks up to see the party and offers a prickly pear.
- He tells them that the Bracklings are here to help tear down civilisation and propogate the Idea of Th-
- The party COVER THEIR EARS
- Then Odo MURDERS GUSTAV IN ONE BLOW
- Then Sydney summons Cloudkill and a wave of horrible poison rolls down the slope, murdering the rest of the Bracklings.
- Then they burn the bodies and leave.
--- A Band of Dwarves
- On the way back to town, while passing by the spire that once had a winged boar, they come across a band of Dwarves. Odo runs forward to introduce herself, and finds that they know her by reputation! A natural-born female Dwarf, very rare you know.
- They hail from Ur-Kalladh, you can tell from the classic fantasy Dwarf aesthetic, and Sydney trades a cursed scythe for an axe wrapped in cloth.
- Snakes start dropping from Odo's pockets and she realises her snake egg is leaking! They hurriedly make their excuses and leave.

--- Return to Splug
- Soon they have arrived back at Splug. Their flesh airship is safely moored just outside town, and their don't seem to be any golem attacks presently occurring, so all good!
- Sydney sees a passing redshirt from the airship and asks how the capitalist revolution is going. The answer? Poorly. These collectivist townsfolk aren't interested in currency, or even barter!
- Odo spitefully murders the man. Some passing bud-goblins see this act of aggression against an innocent underling by their employer and start grabbing weapons!
- Hobgoblins see this and raise a hue and cry, quickly killing off the potential insurrection. They apologise to the party - they haven't had a bud-purge in a while so the minions are starting to get a bit uppity.
--- Party Time
- This might be a town with no need for private property or currency, but that doesn't mean they don't know how to party! It's carousing time!
- Odo realises she doesn't have much cash, so pawns off the snake egg to Julgoor's shop on the airship. Julgoor is surprised at this great deal!
- She returns to the pub to find festivities in full swing! There's a Halfling regaling the group, a shimmer in the air, and a bunch of hobgoblins dancing on the tables! She grabs a cup of fungal beer and does her best to catch up!

--- The Next Day
- Odo wakes up with an absolutely stinking headache, the sword Lothario complaining that she's looking terrible this morning.
- Sydney wakes up in bed with a pretty girl called Xarini. She's sleeping peacefully, makeup smudged.
- Julian wakes up alone, a mirror standing beside the bed, with confusing memories of Aximander's lips on his...
- Phillipides Goath's eyes shoot open. There's a small figure sitting on the side of the bed pulling on their clothes. He groans in confusion, blaming "Poison Phil" for this turn of events, as Three-Legs the Amorinator blows him a dismissive kiss and leaves the room.

--- Tying Up
- They rest up in town for a week or so, taking some time to see how their business investments are going.
- Sydney buys back the snake egg from Julgoor (he is happy to get rid of it - it keeps leaking snakes!) and starts a nice little startup in Splug, called Staff of Asclepius. It sells snakes.
- Sydney also coaxes the party into seeing what that totem pole with the moon emblem at the top does after the full moon. It recharges! They gain Intelligence at the cost of Wisdom.
- Aximander gets to work with his Reknit Essence spell to scramble various stats on the party members. With consent, naturally. He also takes the time to brew a Potion of Bounty from some mushrooms, and commissions a Mustang Glove that makes sparks when you click your fingers.
- During this process, the Pig Egg hatches! It's a little piglet with little itty bitty wings that allow it to hover for a few seconds at a time! He names it Gunter, and the first output of Sydney's new business is a snakeskin collar for the little guy.
- We are all set for a new adventure next week! And a surprise special guest...
