Entry 2

Where we ended last time the chosen ones were staying in a small town resting when all of a sudden they heard screams and people yelling. They ran out of their rooms and downstairs in the tavern and saw soldiers attacking people and taking them outside. The paladin tried to get them to surrender and captured one of them, but they didn’t seem to care. Almost like they weren’t themselves. One of the soldiers killed the captured one and then a knight walked in and that is where it ended.

What I planned on happening was that was they would fight them inside the tavern and then head outside and see more soldiers but inside the tavern was mysterious man who could cast spells went outside and stopped the soldiers. The strangers name is Veros and he is going to offer to guide these people to Groveton the may city where the chosen ones started. Afterwards they were either gonna go to a port south to take a ship around the mountain range Godsthrone or they were going to try to sneak through the southern border of stondor to float down the river and go through the Godsthrone. When they get into the living forest they will explore searching and then get attacked by a giant frog like monster. Then continue toward their destination.

What actually happened was fighting in the tavern due to lucky rolls they managed to defeat the soldiers rather quickly. However the knights were a bit more of a challenge. When most of the soldiers in the tavern were defeated, Veros the sleeping drunkard in the tavern, woke up and then attacked the knights and then went outside to help the people outside being attacked. They found out the knights were immune to magic. The spell casters found themselves pretty useless. When all the soldiers inside were defeated and the knights reached a certain point in their hp they commit suicide. When searching the bodies they runes of protection from magic and a note from Lord Anthos saying to take people to storage which really freaked out the players. After searching the town and sending the remaining people to Groveton with Veros. When leaving Woodpine they stop in Wakefield and found this town had been attacked earlier that day. They found a few survivors outside town which ended up revealing the best way to the Living Forest. Which is actually full of dead trees and nasty monsters and beasts of many kinds. It was where the final battle of long ago that almost destroyed the world. They were told to head south to Doveport then rent a ship to take them across the Southern Gulf. When arriving at the shore of the Living Forest the wizard and bard focus together and after a natural twenty and another high roll they find a direction to go of the item they are looking for. When they start traveling through the woods they are attacked by a giant frog like monster. That is where we ended.

Entry 1

Well this one is going to be going over everything that has happened to date. The campaign started in tavern(of course haha) where the heros were summoned by captain of the town guard(Captain Shuli) to go and investigate some strange happenings in a near by town. The group consists of a human paladin by the name of, Arthur Matthias Ventanus, a proper man from a noble family that live to the north near the godscrown mountain range. His family are the guardians and overseers of the merchant town called Salzig. There is an Elf Druid named Alara Wolfmoon from the Wolfmoon clan. She was sent at a young age of 5 to go live in the wilderness alone growing up with a wolf. The point of this is to come into her wildshape powers, however when returning home she did not so she was sent to continue her journey with her brother fang. There is also a gnome wizard named Bilder the Tall. Bilber is on a quest of knowledge and in his jounrys and studies came across book than he doesn't understand, however he knows in heart this book is evil and now quests to find a way to destroy it or just keep it out of the hands of evil. Next we have a monk female named Briella who as a baby was left at her monastery as a baby. she was considered an abomination as she is a half-elf half-dwarf. Next we have a hafling bard named Ryan. He uses his abilities to find criminals and turn them in for money, as any bounty hunter would. Lastly we have a elven rouge. He grew up with his merchant parents owning store. One day his parents were killed and Vaylen then turned to stealing. He ended up joining a big thieves guild called The Jackals who ended up stealing a lot of money from and is now on the run doing odd jobs to get by.

Till now the heros have found that the strange happenings are coming from the relm of madness trying to bleed through to tandor. which later they found out that the god of madness Asura is trying to break free of his prison. Turns out that the book Bilber found is the seal for asura. They traveled to the kingdom of the elves Maal dorei where the king of the elves had explained to them about the king of stondor is possessed by the god of madness and then took the book from bilber to keep it safe freeing bilbers mind. They were told about the elven gods champions used 6 items of power to seal away asura, but afterwards the items were scattered across the world. The heros now need to travel world gathering these items to seal away asura again after being told by the elven king that it is their destiny.

They also found out that their friend Finn is actually the believed to be dead prince of stondor which the king tried to kill and then used it as a plot to start a war. 

Over this journey Arthur found a griffon that alara helped him hatch. They have also found a few items of power already. The cloak of rillifane, the gauntlets of solonor, and are currently on their way to get the dagger of ereven. 

Where we left off last time they were in a tavern when all of a sudden the village is being attacked by soldiers of stondor. The paladin tried to end it peacefully by grabbing one of the soldiers and saying if they lay down their arms their friend would live and then the soldiers killed their friend. They do not seem to be themselves or normal. There are many soldiers here ten inside the tavern and maybe another 30 more outside. Next time we will see what our heros will do and how they will get out of this situation.
