Session Events

  • Attempted to avoid the dragon by escaping into the woods.

  • Spilled treasure twice, Erazin being unable to resist stopping and collecting it both times.

  • Got lost in the woods and attacked by the dragon.

  • Fought and defeated the dragon, though not without nearly dying, with Erazin taking a toothy dose of the dragon’s strength-sapping poison.

  • The dragon become the last dwarven brother, Brol, who betrayed his siblings for Carmelo’s cursed treasure.

  • Returned to the dragon’s den and collapsed it to safely bury Brol and the cursed treasure, resisting the call to take a little for yourselves.

  • Explored the Wealdwood for a day before finding a route that would avoid the goblin castle.

  • Stopped at the Hen’s Teeth Tavern for the night, informing Flynn the innkeeper of the fate of the dwarves and the dragon, and witnessing a darkly dressed elven woman disappear into the mirror at the stroke of midnight.

  • Returned to Tavern-by-Sisters.

  • Pick pocketed by a nasty version of Stevie, a usually well behaved young boy from the town.

  • Chased him down, detected that he was a fae, learned the mirror man rhyme, and let him escape.

  • Returned to the League’s private room in the Golden Egg Tavern, informed Rook of all you learned, and accompanied him to Eric Figwort the town reeve’s estate to collect a reward and information.

  • Negotiated the full reward for defeating the dragon.

  • Learned from Eric, his wife, and his daughter that Arthur Figwort and several of his friends said the rhyme in front of a special mirror, entered the mirror, and then returned acting wicked.

  • Said the rhyme and entered the mirror into the Elf Lord’s domain.

  • Headed to the bluehouse and found one of the children.
