Here is another one from Dan. I love these…
I think the last time you were there we had just helped some lady bring her
bloodstones to market. We got invited to the local lords home for a party.
While there one of his daughters is kidnapped. Feng + Anachron chase after
them as the others get equipment. We lose them after they shoot a lighting
bolt and there Monk hits Feng a couple of times Feng has to give up the
chase. The Mighty Moog who once Killed Elmenster “ya right” gives the party
a gem and tells them in a time of need throw it. He also casts a spell on
Feng so he can track the sent of the girl. We travel almost all night. Come
to a bridge where the Monk Feng had fought before and three others where
waiting with 6 skeletons. We win the fight and keep on of the guys alive I
think he was a third level Sorcerer. We promises not to kill him if he helps
us find the girl. He says theres an abandoned keep about half days ride from
here where the girl will be held. We tie him up and bring him along. We
travel some more then make camp. In the morning. We find the keep. We sneak
into one tower a little fighting happens. Feng chases after 3 of the thieves
and catches up to them he takes out 6th level thief but eventually is taken
out by the other two. Feng stops bleeding at -7 when the other show up. The
6th level thief and his buddies got away. We didn’t find the girl in the
keep but in the stables all there horses were killed and there was a hole in
the ground where a blood trail lead. We went down and found some dead Torgs
and some humans and an elf. After a few little fights of our own we come
into a big chamber. The set up is a we are on 10 foot landing then there is
a little 15 foot rope bridge in the middle theres 40 troglodytes and 5 evil
adventures fighting. On the other side of the fight is another 15 foot rope
bridge and another slightly bigger landing. Over there is the kidnapped girl
on an altar with 3 trog clerics getting ready to sacrifice her to there god.
Feng wins initiative, he is able to run across the first bridge and get half
way around the huge fight with the trogs. Some of the trogs see the party
and start crossing the bridge. Thrack and Mantrias take up the left and
right side of the bridge so no trog is going to be able to cross but the
party can’t cross either. Tally hits the cleric with the sacrifice knife in
his hand with a magic missile. Woeful Willie a Bard that Feng and Thrack
hired to log there adventures and sing about there glory also starts
attacking the 3 clerics across the way with a cross bow. Feng Thrack and
Mantrias are taking a little damage because there the only ones that are in
a position to get hit. Feng eventually make it to the other bridge. At this
time the Wizard in the evil party fighting the trogs sees the party on the
other side of the bridge and sends two lighting blots at the party. Thrack
has 3 hp Mantrias is down Willie is down Tally has 5hp Anachron in the low
teens for hp. Tally throws the gem Moog gave the party. A giant wall of fire
appears and takes out some of the trogs. The last of the healing is given
out which brings Mantrias and Willie back up to low teens for hp. On the
other side of the fire wall Feng eventually take out the 3 clerics at the
same time Moog gates in. in the middle where the big fight was happening the
evil party only had about 4 trogs left to kill. Moog offers to gate Feng and
the girl out and Feng was like OK. Now this is were some roll playing on
your part is going to have to come into play. Geof playing your character
said we had to retreat. You have no idea whats happening on the other side
of the fire wall. The party is hurt real bad the evil party you saw fighting
was winning against 40 trogs and Feng and the girl are considered dead. You
leave to go back to town. Moog has gated Feng and the girl to his place
about 1000 miles away. The next day Moog sends Feng back (without the girl
she didn’t want to go home) Feng promised to eventually come back and help
Moog with a few things for helping saving the girl. Both the girl and Moog
give Feng a note for her father the local lord). The rest of the party gets
back to town Mantrias and Tally bring the 3rd level Sorcerer to the Lord and
say he did help in attempting to rescue her and asked for a leanent sentence
the Lord had the Sorcerer executed on the spot. The party finds out Feng is
alive and the Lord wants his daughter brought back to him. thats were we
are. I’m going to attach a little map and the XP sheet. By the way you went
up in level but I need to know which one Cleric or Fighter.
Future adventures looks like we are on the road heading south to get the
girl and possible help Moog out with a few little side adventures. Greg I
apologize for my righting I’m not a very good story teller. Hope to see you
on the Saturday the 17th for our next adventure.
