Recently, I was able to get an online game started up with a couple of friends and two others who were interested. The party worked out great, and we had an awesome opening session, so I decided to start a journal for this campaign.
Cast
------
Aiwyn-Female Elf Cleric of Pelor 5 (Aspires to become a Radiant Servant of Pelor {I hope that's the name of the PrC}.)
Antonio-Male Human Warmage 5 (Greatest flavor-text on the planet.)
Jack-Male Vampire Spawn (He's pretty much the party rogue.)
Roxxor-Male Half-Ogre Barbarian 5 (Who is of surprising intelligence for a barbarian.)
Chapter 1: Las Chupacabras de Easthill
---------------------------------------
Our heroes began in the small mining village of Easthill. After a bad run-in with the local authorities at a nearby village (part of the backstory), they travelled here.
They immediately began searching for adventuring offers, eventually finding a number of them. They all agreed on one; a request for help from an old farmer whose livestock was being killed.
The farmer, Amos Shefrin, directed them to a goat skeleton, the meat completely gone from its bones. They found teethmarks and even a tooth in the skeleton, leading them to believe that a monster was involved.
They set an ambush for the monster by tying up an old cow that was ready to die as it was. They waited in hiding, barely noticing three creatures that stalked through the grass to the cow.
They got into fight with the creatures, which were chupacabras (Dragon 343), and easily slaughtered them. After the fight, Antonio set the corpses ablaze, leaving a skeleton with all the meat completely gone from the bones.
To make sure they had gotten rid of all of the goat-suckers, they hired Ol' Gregory, the greatest ranger in town, to track them. Gregory's a drunk, but his memory is sharp as steel, so though he was drunk when Aiwyn talked him into helping them (for free), he is sure to remember his duty when he is sober in the morning.
The next session will be this Sunday night (hopefully), so I'll be sure to post the account of that game ASAP. Until then, I leave you with some funny quotes from the game.
Funny Quotes
-------------
Aiwyn: Antonio? Do you have any fire spells?
Antonio: Ha! You might as well ask a baker if he has any bread! (His hands glowing with fire.)
Roxxor: I'm taking my greatclub and going Tiger Woods on the monster!
Jack: (Various discussion with Antonio on the ethics of drinking the blood of other sentient beings.)
