Including monsters encountered and treasure collected.
Met with Ned (the human, not the horse) and went through the tavern’s basement, through the ancient sewers, and to the Five Fingers of Fate’s hideout.
Met with The Finger, the secretive leader of the organization, who paid the party for their help (1,000 gp), promised a future favor, and welcomed Erazin and Katgur as prospective members (work to prove worthiness forthcoming).
Erazin and Katgur developed a secret handshake, and the party was “officially” named the Smoke Show Adventuring Company (SSAC for short).
Purchased all of Squints’s wares for a deal after Katgur scared him pretty good: Coin Purse of Trickery, Pouch of Petrification (10 uses), and Cloak of the Mists.
Ghesh explored a side passage and discovered one of several ways into the under-sewer, where he heard crunching and other strange sounds.
Retrieved Droop and sent Ned, Zaraq, and the cart down the road, then explored the sewer to find the Alverith sewer exit. (Unlocked path)
Headed south until reaching the North Road, running into Poet Wikkwetch again—stopped her from killing some wild dogs (50 xp) and Ghesh gave her a generous sum to purchase food—and reuniting with the wagon and gang.
Followed the road until finding a smashed pony and a trail of blood leading NW into the Wealdwood.
Followed the blood to a giant’s house.
Saved Brother Dirk from the giant, Callum flying in carrying Ghesh with the Rope of Weightlessness. (500 xp)
Set fire to the giants house, fought, and defeated him. (650 xp)
Risked the smoke and fire to loot the giant’s burning house, finding: Sundered Shield of Shattering, a sack containing treasure worth 489 gp, and a crudely drawn map pointing towards a “hidey-hole” in the mountain range to the north of the Wealdwood.
Retrieved a giant golden necklace (and the giant’s big toe—his namesake) from his body. (400 gp)
Revived Brother Dirk and decided he was racist.
Traveled SE, returning to the cart and the North Road.
Took the first short rest ever.
Continued along the North Road, leaving it after a mile or two and cutting SE.
Located Sir Brandon’s Barrow and delved inside.
Callum used a new spell to easily remove gems from the mosaics on the wall. (230 gp)
Defeated six goblins in the next chamber. (30 xp)
Father William has requested you retrieve the dragon slaying sword from Sir Brandon’s barrow mound (and see what has become of Brother Dirk, if time allows). In exchange, he offers blessings (the casting of one cleric spell up to level 3).
