Floodwall Session 36: All Rise! Live from Darwen!

Okay I don’t think I can do a proper narrative-style recap for this one; too much went down. Why don’t we record these?! The whole point of the trial was to determine if the Leviathan had a rightful claim to the shards of Aurifar’s power, or if it would be made to cease and desist,Continue reading “Floodwall Session 36: All Rise! Live from Darwen!”

Floodwall Sessions 34-35: Jury Duty

Oh my god you guys a lot has happened. Okay, so, upon returning to the city the party was swept up into an illusion by Czerna, in which they fought against Rosso to stop him from reaching the Regicider Base and wrecking the place.In the real world, a large group of Church Guards assaulted theContinue reading “Floodwall Sessions 34-35: Jury Duty”

Floodwall Sessions 32-33: Relax!

In light of their recent successes, the party received some tickets to a spa/resort/hotel thing from Bailiff. It was a nice gesture; Bailiff had signed up to Nico’s special membership scheme and pulled some strings to get them. They declined to go with the party, though.     The hotel was pretty fancy. There wasContinue reading “Floodwall Sessions 32-33: Relax!”

Floodwall Session 31: Versus Argat, Live from St. Albans! (Story)

The hospital is a reflection of its real-world counterpart; a familiar face peering back at you from a shallow pool of oil. The temperature skirts freezing, the gurneys and tools are rusted to the point of inoperability, the smell of mould in the still air is pervasive despite attempts to camouflage the olfactory landscape withContinue reading “Floodwall Session 31: Versus Argat, Live from St. Albans! (Story)”

Floodwall Sessions 29-30: Liches get Stitches

Okay, quick update here because I’ve left it like… six weeks?You know how life be. The party made their way back to Floodwall from the Feywild after a makeshift funeral for the Dragonborn hatchlings – there are now only two Dragonborn left in Floodwall – and some caretaking of Granny Hestia and Edsel in theirContinue reading “Floodwall Sessions 29-30: Liches get Stitches”

Floodwall Session 28: Versus the Weaver (Story)

Cranzalar stepped lightly onto the plateau, the charred air in his lungs a now-familiar discomfort. His companions waited around the lambent sigil printed on the ground. A diagram of Shallows’ soul, Firuzeh had called it. That book of hers – the Archive – was dangerous; maybe as dangerous as the other sentient item his friends possessed. ButContinue reading “Floodwall Session 28: Versus the Weaver (Story)”

Floodwall Session 27: Misunderstanding

The party set out to find Diafani, with Cranzalar’s Locate Creature spell actually making it manageable. Diafani was skulking around Argat’s hospital, and after some threats and persuasions, she was convinced to travel with the party to Shallows’ soul rune in the plane of fire. Once there, the three needed to nip back to theContinue reading “Floodwall Session 27: Misunderstanding”

Floodwall Session 26: Dreams, Gifts, Plans, and Parley

Cranzalar dreamt of a deep sun fathoms below the ocean, boiling away the brine. A voice not entirely unlike Eadro’s came to him as he watched, and offered him a different kind of power. Cranzalar accepted, and awoke to find a greatsword rammed through his chest. He’d become a warlock. So now he was anContinue reading “Floodwall Session 26: Dreams, Gifts, Plans, and Parley”

Floodwall Sessions 22-23-24: Going Underground

I’ll try and keep it brief, ‘cause I’m condensing three sessions into one post. (Later, Alex will only write recaps when at least 3 sessions have passed)                 In the aftermath of the Masquerade, Cranzalar had come back from the dead. Doing so had a few side effects – he no longer needs to eatContinue reading “Floodwall Sessions 22-23-24: Going Underground”
