The Fourth Adventure
A tale told outside the canon
(Since the last story ended with a major set being destroyed and several actors fleeing for their lives, I give you this character interpretation by the actor playing Tyack. He will give his interpretation of how the next scenes were supposed to go while the sets are being rebuilt. We thank you for your patience)
The facts of the story are these. The party, having been beaten by the winged witch sought revenge upon her. We decided to play it smarter by having our spell casters actually do prep spells before going in. We opened the door to her lair and seeing nothing, Lodeseeker and Nando Calrissian made for the stairs near the orange pool where we saw her last. Bock readied a shot in case she appeared out of nowhere. I remained outside while Valdaire moved in.
The witch did appear and began cackling and casting spells. She knocked out some of Lodeseeker’s strength and flew toward the door before becoming invisible again. In the meantime Bock kept trying to gain a bead on her and backed up against a door when one of her evil minion deadites popped out and began attacking him. Lodeseeker and Bock devised a plan to draw it near, but nobody saw fit to inform Valdaire who blocked any regular movement.
Meanwhile the witch queen appeared above Nando’s head and started to give him a bad perm. I took this opportunity to knock the crap out of her stunning her and making her fall to the ground. Lodeseeker took this opportunity to pin her and we proceeded to pummel her to unconsciousness before slitting her throat.
After that Lodeseeker and Valdaire had the idea to bleed into the pool where the witch had summoned the deadites. Lodeseeker cut his finger along his axe and bled into the bubbling orange pool which simultaneously lowered the orange water level, and summoned an evil deadite. Thrice we did that, and dispatched them with ease. We then returned to the front of the tunnel where the guards were waiting and turned the witch’s body over to the acolyte Remmi to take to the head priest for examination.
We then proceeded back into the tunnel to explore it further. We found a couple of dead ends with collapsed stone that looked like it had remained like that for centuries. While going into a small room with a well in the center of it, Lodeseeker was attacked by a mysterious floating head creature known as a varguoille. It was quickly dispatched before it could harm him and we proceeded on.
We encountered a room with a few platforms and some more deadites which we rapidly killed. Then we came into a room lined with many small wooded platforms over creatures that appeared to be moaning. Inside that room was the great goblin hero Koruvus who had somehow mutated himself and grown a third arm. Koruvus had been missing for quite some time, so allegedly this is what he had been doing.
Koruvus spit blood-acid at Lodeseeker which slowed the dwarf’s limbs and tried desperately to engage us. Alas the party was too quick for him and he was summarily dispatched and we kept his body from further regenerating. We saw that the noises down in the pit were coming from zombies and we vowed to get rid of them after searching the last room.
The last room turned out to be some sort of chamber with a permanent levitation spell cast upon whatever was inside it. Several objects were floating around in it. Valdaire went in, collected the items. We then went back into the room with the zombies, used the wooden platforms over their pits as kindling and burned them into a proper deadness. Thus with our mission accomplished we returned to the town to find out what Shililu’s scouting report had given us about Thistletop.
