Yes. It's that time.
Prepare yourself for havoc, for excitement, and for weird glow-y skeleton thingies that might be a lich.
Anyways...
Before we start the retelling of the exhilarating first part, allow me to introduce you to our characters!
Pallas, a drow warlock that has anger issues.
Wolfwarrior, a dragonborn rogue that's way too good at sleight of hand.
Blitz, an aasimar fighter that literally just popped into existence.
Barley, a tabaxi bard that is way too nice.
Callum, a halfling wizard that, in the player's words, "is not the smartest".
Shazam, a kenku with an undefined class.
Hellcat, a dragonborn ranger that loves apple juice way too much.
And Croissant, yet another dragonborn (his player refuses to tell me his class because... i don't know why).
So, now we may begin! Except I was sick during the first session and missed it :(.
Because of this, we have a guest author (along with some handy interviews from reliable sources) to tell us what happened!
He's Wolfwarrior's player, you may know him as "Bug Spray Boy", it's... Bookdude!
Over to you, Bookdude.
So, I was in a bar with Hellcat, drinking beer (Gavi here: in Hellcat's case, apple juice), when Barley, Blitz and Callum came in. The bartender told us about mysterious disappearances occurring around town. We decided to investigate further the next morning.
(That's all Bookdude sadly had time to write, but I have had some interviews with Hellcat's player, our former writer Why Do You Need To Know, and have discovered what else happened!
When Callum, Blitz and Barely arrived, Callum was apparently thrown onto the table by Hellcat himself. Then Callum attempted to "rizz" up the bartender to get a free drink, but rolled a nat. 1.
Next, the bartender told them of disappearances having, according to rumours, to do with the undead!)
Thanks, Bookdude!
Session 2 went pretty much like this -
The group exited the bar, Hellcat having stolen all their apple juice supply, and set off to the forest. Barley smelt a trail that, in his words, "smelt like zombies."
The group followed it, when suddenly...
...

...
...
...
(is this enough suspense :)?)
...
...
A drow (Pallas) jumps out of the bushes and grabs Callum! Hellcat tries to stab him, but misses. Barley randomly starts to play his lute (for some reason), and Callum fires a fireball, that misses Pallas entirely. Pallas stabs Hellcat's foot and convinces Barley to stop playing the lute, as it might boost the group's strength. Hellcat stabs Pallas in the stomach, and Callum hides inside a magic room. Wolfwarrior... does nothing.
But then, a flood of strange, glow-y water sweeps through the group, taking Hellcat and Wolfwarrior with it...
