Ok we will stay here. I copy everything for sure, though sometimes it looks like it posted when it didn't and either double posts or not at all. I can't seem to get this website to work on chrome for me I am having to use microsoft edge not sure why. New post is up but started a new page so might miss it.
It is hard to tell the time of day. Even without the fog there is a bleak greyness to the sky. Like a permanent overcast after a hard rain. he muddy ground underfoot gives way to slick, wet cobblestones. The tall shapes become recognizable as village dwellings. The windows of each house stare out from pools of blackness. No sound cuts the silence except for mournful sobbing that echoes through the streets from a distance.
Redemption/Malaya: With your passive perceptions you notice a Raven on a rooftop across the cobblestone road from the house you just exited. It seems to be watching you.
Round 6 Mayala 18+ Says a prayer and attempts to cast a spell the beast takes damage as radiant light burns through the plantlike flesh.
The caverns start to shake and quake beneath you. You encounter a series of challenges as you run out of the house as furniture and things come alive and try to prevent you from leaving. You eventually make it out. You no longer see the two children outside and the fog is lifted revealing a gothic town setting before you.

I don't know if its this website or what, but it constantly is losing posts. Anyone know a better forum for these games with a dice roller?

Round 1 Mayala 18+ based on readiness
The cultist are not affected by your interactions, but they begin to chant "Lorghoth the Decayer, we awaken thee!” The water recedes and begins to form a giant plant-like creature. It forms between the steps leading to the altar and the door you entered.
Round 1 Mayala 18+
The chanting rises once more as thirteen dark apparitions appear on the ledges overlooking the room. Each one resembles a black-robed figure holding a torch, but the torch’s fire is black and seems to draw light into it. Where you’d expect to see faces are voids. “One must die!” they chant, over and over. “One must die! One must die!”
I apologize I just realized a post I did on Wed night never registered.
Sven detects no traps, and the door opens without difficulty. The chanting stops as you peer into this forty-foot-square room. The smooth masonry walls provide excellent acoustics. Featureless stone pillars support the ceiling, and a breach in the west wall leads to a dark cave heaped with refuse. Murky water covers most of the floor. Stairs lead up to dry stone ledges that hug the walls. In the middle of the room, more stairs rise to form an octagonal dais that also rises above the water. Rusty chains with shackles dangle from the ceiling directly above a stone altar mounted on the dais. The altar is carved with hideous depictions of grasping ghouls and is stained with dry blood. The water is 2 feet deep. The ledges and central dais are 5 feet high (3 feet higher than the water’s surface), and the chamber’s ceiling is 16 feet high (11 feet above the dais and ledges). The chains dangling from the ceiling are 8 feet long
The room opposite the bedroom: This room is festooned with moldy skeletons that hang from rusty shackles against the walls. A wide alcove in the south wall contains a painted wooden statue carved in the likeness of a gaunt, pale-faced man wearing a voluminous black cloak, his pale left hand resting on the head of a wolf that stands next to him. In his right hand, he holds a smoky-gray crystal orb.
Redemption:
Chanting can be heard coming from the south DC 10 religion: Its obvious to you that these statues are where sacrifices are received.
For me it was Pathfinder 2nd. I used to run society games locally for Pathfinder 1st. 2nd felt to me the same 4th ed D&D felt and I had no desire to continue. I tried to fill the void with independent RPGS for a while ignoring all the good things I heard about D&D 5E. I finally gave it a chance because enough of friends I trusted had gotten into it, and glad I did. It's not perfect and there are some things I take from other RPGS etc. when I homebrew, but adventure league seems right for what its trying to do. I still think Paizo has some of the best adventure paths out there, but the mechanics are not motivating me to buy into a new edition.
I will post tonight. Was out for holiday with family. Wish I was at a con! Jelious
A chandelier is suspended above a table in the middle of the room. Two high-backed chairs flank the table, which has an empty clay jug and two clay flagons atop it. Iron candlesticks stand in two corners, their candles long since melted away. There is a door to the southeast, and a doorway to the southwest that leads to a 30' long hall and a master bedroom
Round Two Ghoul1 22 Dead
Shandi and Sven ensure their attackers are dead.
There is nothing of value on these ghouls. You can go straight ahead, left or right. The chant sounds stronger to south or to the left, but not the right. Right:
it continues for 10' then there are a few stairs down then it goes to the right. South:
Continues 15' then turns left Left: Goes 10' then turns right(south)

Round Two Ghoul1 22 Dead
Yes Blaze will only take half damage from the claws. Its ok to be botted just trying to keep it going I know this format leaves much to be desired.
Somehow my round 2 got posted before the end of round 1. Not sure how it did that.
Round one Ghoul1 22 Claw attack vs Blaze: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 The first ghoul claws at the mighty centaur and misses
Ghoul Saves:
Velspira 16 Throws a firebolt into melee and hits one of the ghouls Ghoul2 Claw vs Blaze: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 Slashing Damage: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (1, 3) + 2 = 6 The third ghoul gets a claw in Blaze. Make a DC 10 Con save or be paralyzed Blaze 5 Fells one ghoul with a vicious attack Shandi 4+ Hits a with a firebolt Sven 4- Attempts to hit a far one with his crossbow The attack hits the corner of the wall
Round Two Ghoul1 22 Dead
Init:
Blaze goes into the intersection bravely, but because of the rattle is not caught by surprise by 3 ghouls waiting. Round One Ghoul1 22 The first ghoul claws at the mighty centaur and misses
As you are about to approach the intersection, the baby rattle begins to make noise.
Nothing is found in this room. There is a hall that leads south, the door is open and broken probably from the snake creature. There is another door that leads east, you came from the west. Southern Hall:
You look down and see darkness that ends at a 4-way intersection about 30' down. The smell of decay is potent. East Door: This door opens to a pantry. Most of the items are broken, but there is a healing potion that is still intact amongst the rubble.
Its all good. Where I am at we've had a crazy amount of random fire evacuations so I have been a bit slow also.
Initiative Round 1
Blaze and Redemption finish the creature off. It wails and the tentacles squirm in the darkness for a while before all movement in the creature stops. The chants however, continue...
Initiative Round 1
Initiative Round 1
As the party advances through the wrecked room, they notice a creature stirring. You are all perceptive enough to anticipate its attack. A giant snake like creature with a beak and four tentacle like appendages protruding from its head leaps out.
Initiative Round 1
You guys are able to get Blaze across without issue. You come to a room with the door destroyed. The items inside have been broken and the floor is in disarray. This looks like it might have been a storage area or meeting place, maybe a bit of both. There is another door across from this door in this 40'x50' room. The chanting and darkness are constant.
Ok no problem hasn't been a combat yet, but one will be coming soon that I might have to do that.
With Redemption's great perception he recognizes a pit trap ahead down this hallway. Most of the party can maneuver around it, but Blaze will have some difficulty.
Nothing of value seems to be in this room. Southeast:
A rough passage that is 10' high and 5' wide that goes east for about 30' before turning south. South: a rough passage that goes south for about 30' then looks like it goes down form there. It is also 10' high and 5' wide.
This door opens to a dark collection of sleeping quarters. Simple beds, and some makeshift sleeping areas made of hay are the only things of note in this room. There are two doors leading out of this 40'x40' room. One to the southeast and one directly south. The chanting remains constant.
