![]() The battle that followed was filled with amazing rolls by the female rogue as she hopped around and popped two of the Will o Wisps and did the majority of the damage to the Tree Blight. And to aid him three Will o Wisps rose up from the dissipating magic flowing from the fire. From the statue burst forth a great Tree Blight, his roar of awakening shaking the hill. The rest of the druids in the circle were vaporized by the spells feedback, and as the leader’s blood flowed into the fire the spell was complete. Now I could have just let it go and just ended the spell, going with my initial plans should the party attack the druids, but I decided such an epic kill deserved an epic follow up. The Druid leader died with the spell still crackling around him. She rolled a natural 20 and then did 44 points of damage. However, because of a high sneak roll I gave the female Rogue a surprise round shot as well. The Birds bolt did a small amount of damage, enough to break the spell. And as both rogues took their sneak attacks my plans went all to hell. I decided to dress the druid’s leader in a different robe so they were able to easily identify him. So naturally, they decided to make a surprise attack. Though the party could not understand the strange chant, they knew some dark ritual was in progress. Mystical energy encircled the druids, and the Paladin could feel their evil intent. At the far end of the circle from the party a large wooden statue that bore a great resemblance to Strahd. ![]() Within that circle, they spied a group of druids circling bonfire. Giving a little information to individual players and letting them make their choices.īack to the quest, however, the party quickly but quietly snuck up the hill and took up positions around the massive stone boulders that ringed a ceremonial circle on the hilltop. The female Rogue did hear some strange whispers, given to her in a passed note, but for now, at least has not acted on them. While the group did a cursory inspection of them, all they found were some weird runes that none of them recognized. Yester Hill itself turned out to be large oval-shaped burial ground circled in concentric rings and dotted with the stone burial cairns of the long dead. If you haven’t read them then you really should.ĭespite that our party of two rogues (one female and one a bird), a Knight who thinks he’s a Bard (or a Bard who thinks he’s a Knight), and a Redneck Paladin (now with a cup) headed into the thickening forest as the sun went down. I say sadly only because I really enjoy playing his imp, who I have decided to play very close to Loiosh of the Vlad Taltos novels. We commenced with a quick recap of events as our female rogue had returned and our Warlock was sadly absent. The session began with the party moving south along the dirt game trails flowing from the Vinery towards Yester Hill and their Druidic quarry. Thankfully they have a badass rogue with a very nasty crossbow. ![]() And as is so common with this group, they completely derailed a carefully planned encounter and then almost died. A DM can decide if that is adequate, and if certain meat is worth more or less.Our humble party headed south to Yester Hill this session, in search of the druid conclave and hopefully one of the mystic gems belonging to the Wizard of Wines. For example, dragon meat could cost 10x more than standard livestock meat, while insect meat could cost only a copper or two per pound. The value of meat can vary drastically, depending on the quality, rarity and the creature it is sourced from. ![]() ⋆ The table above uses a standard price of 5cp per pound for regular a piece of animal meat (such as cattle or deer). ‡ Raw meat has a very short shelf-life, and will go bad within a day if it is not refridgerated or cured. And one slab of meat (4 lbs.), can be used to make 1 dried ration (2 lbs.). † The weight of a raw piece of meat is 4 pounds. ![]()
