Beholder Group - "Abandon Ship!" - Session 17 The Eye of Kronos

30th Jan 2020, 8:00 – 11:45pm In-game timeline: Start of session, 1489DR, Eleasis 24th. End of session, Eleasis 24th. We find our “Heroes” on board the floating wreck of The Emperor of the Waves, having just defeated the half-Orc druid Kranth and his spider minions, plus a couple of demons, whilst on the hunt for a mysterious lockbox that Devon has agreed to recover for some friends of his. After resting to recover some health and the odd ability or two, the group press on further into the lower deck of the creaking ship. Opening the door out of the chamber where they defeated Kranth, the see a hallway, with various doors leading from it, and a grate in the floor in the centre of the hall. Drogan led the way, and entered the first room to the right – it was full of webs, and little spiders, but little else. They moved on. Drogan crouched down to investigate the grate in the floor, spying water in the cargo hold beneath. As the ret of the group made their way towards him, he was sudden

Beholder Group - "Poison? Bring it on!" Session 16 The Eye of Kronos

8th Jan 2020, 7:45 – 11:30pm In-game timeline: Start of session, 1489DR, Eleasis 20th. End of session, Eleasis 24th. Our Heroes are to be found in Neverwinter, considering what student projects to purchase from the Arcane Academy. After a bit of shopping, and a brief meeting with Captain Ironfist, they set sail, heading towards the Whale Bone Isles. Drogan felt very at home on board ship. And fit in well with the rest of the crew. Alwaith and Dwarrowsteel did their best to fit in – they were less useful, but suffered no ill effects from the turbulent sea. Devon, on the other hand, felt sick as soon as he came on board. After recovering a little on the second day, the third day brought very rough seas and high winds, and Devon had a very bad day, spending most of it leaning over the rail and throwing up into the sea. Luckily the fourth day was a little calmer, and he recovered a little, but was still suffering. This was a shame, as in the late afternoon of that day a distant shi

2nd Jan 2020, 7:45 – 11:30pm In-game timeline: Start of session, 1489DR, Eleasis 12th. End of session, Eleasis 20th. We rejoin our "Heroes" sunning themselves in Oakhurst after successfully delivering a middle-aged gnome to a likely death, and succeeding in annoying another town's justice system. After spending a day or two catching up with old friends (friend, singular, in the case of Drogan) and training hard to gain the benefits of a new level, Alwaith persuades the rest of the group to cough up some party dosh to buy him a breastplate from the smith, Rurik, using the metal obtained from defeating some animated armour some weeks previously. Drogan manages to slip in some pink dye into the forging process, which provides much mirth when Alwaith first tries on the breastplate, but the colour does fade in a few days, meaning Alwaith can hold his head high once more. The group decide to head to Neverwinter, to pursue Drogan's possible task, to be rev
