D8 Night

The monks finally reach the prison beneath the labyrinthine kobold dungeon, but will they find the true heir alive? More importantly, when a new threat appears, will they make it out intact themselves? Also, stayed tuned at the end of the episode, for a little off-topic Easter Egg as well as some hints about things to come as we near wrapping this arc and prepare for the next.

Our monks find ominous ancient remnants of a ritual chamber among the twisting, labyrinthine dungeon. Darkness creeps over their hope of finding the true heir that can save their monastery as they continue to be assailed by kobold traps and other, much older dangers, pushing their resourcefulness to its limits.

The party continues its descent into what has become a grueling, unforgiving first test for our fledgling party of monks. Will they discover what the Kobolds have done with Danvers or why the little critters are fighting tooth and nail to defend when they are usually so keen to strike and run away? Or will their first sanctioned mission be their last?

Our monk party delves into Wysdom’s dig site, which they quickly discover is overtaken by aggressive kobolds and other more dangerous foes.

On their way to covertly supply Guillfore's rebellion, Fable, Shae, Whik, Tobias, and Silhouette are waylaid by uncharacteristically active kobolds along the road to the Stonemark. More than just a harrowing attack, the desperation of the little lizard creatures points to something bigger brewing beneath the surface of Arcas. 

A few months after the events of the previous episode, we revisit with Fable, Shea, Whik, and Silhouette as they are tasked with their first mission as graduates of the school of Arcas and Members of the Row. And of course, you can’t have a tomato baby without Tobias … who is … also there! Game-Mom’s Note: Our previous 4 episodes were from a one-shot on the Island of Arcas. We later went back and...

Join us at the Monastery of Arcadia about 2 years before the main campaign, as we learn the backstory of some new PCs as they undertake their monk training and embark on their first adventure together.

We did our best to run When the horde came through the gate Around the walls of no surrender They came, on and on Don’t blame us if we get nervous When Thüt Opens a Door Sanctuary, Disengage Cut the Cord Are they Human?

Wellby, Maryna, and Thüt and lay low after their interesting masquerade in the posh part of town.

 Now the sun is rising And we’re far away home There's just so many faces Not the ones we’re looking for In the dark, try to fight it To forget what we’ve done But in the bright light We remember everyone that’s gone Now the party's over And everything’s a mess We’re left here with ourselves and we Wonder what we have left Does a heart break forever? Like a bottle on the floor Is there hope to be...
