The Ballad of Ember and her Crew [Maelstrom Rift Spoilers]

My DM asked me to post my chronicle of the Special 7-99.

The company of Ember departed the air city of Armun Kelisk,
to investigate a foul anomaly with the aid of Captain Mitts.

By balloon and basket Ember's crew seeked out the anomalous form,
but the captain's directions failed them and threw them into a storm.
Their craft was torn asunder, Ember's crew was strewn about,
their supplies were flying everywhere with the crew chasing en route.
The crew encountered some wyrds, the supplies pursued by all,
but with the adventurers' skills, they beat the wyrds, hoorah!

To the white tower they continued and made their way inside,
only one floor remained standing, the others had been destroyed.
Glowing blue crystals and a tiny hurricane,
electricity crackling, everyone screaming in pain.
The crew destroyed the crystals with weapons, bite, and flame,
the haunting twister was neutralized, and peace finally came.

A portal above! this might lead to the final prize,
so to the ceiling the brave party did slowly rise.
Into the maelstrom plane the party did suddenly appear,
a tiny plane of existence, but the party did not fear.
The heroes fought the rift spinner in a grave melee to be,
round after round they struggled 'til emerging in victory.

Back through the portal and closing it behind,
the heroes returned home to a greeting most kind.

5/5 *

Truly fantastic work! A most excellent epic.

I was the GM. Thank you for posting.

And yes, he got a massive circumstance bonus on his check to tell the tale back in town.
