F&F C2-E60 - I Don’t Like This Game Anymore

Vanera was finally able to read from Cadall’s journal of constantly changing words and phrases. What was found within disproved all other creation myths as Cadall wrote in length of how he unintentionally became a deity and helped to create the world as it was currently known. They also learned of the great evil he was able to seal away and surmised that the shadowy beings they’d been encountering were likely tied to this entity. With all of this information shared with the Tempests, and them alone, they discussed what they wanted to do next. Zaan spoke with Cadall and Brick searched for advice from Bolur and Tlazocoatl. Bolur revealed that they were not omniscient and therefore encouraged the Tempests to do what they do best… Meddle and get in the enemy’s way. He also advised that they take care of their own personal affairs as soon as possible to remove distractions and ensure they were at their strongest to face this shadowy threat. First on their list, get revenge on the Pirate Captain Shirahama and retrieve what was taken from them.
The Tempests are now on the open ocean aboard The Harper’s Fury on it’s way to the pirate stronghold, High Tide. There’s a bit of a problem however, as the Harper’s Fury is being assailed by a ghostly ship. Could it be because Pez pissed off Ceto? Or perhaps it’s just his player who rolled the travel roll for the day. Either way, this is Pez’s fault…

F&F C3-E9 - THE FOREST PROVIDES

Last we left our smooth-brained adventurers, they left the city of Mirabar and traveled south to the Xanatharls keep. When they arrived they were rushed inside the walls as there was a giant attack approaching. The Giant had gathered a small army of Ogers and goblinoids. our party quickly relized the attack was a distraction and sussed out the actual threat. 10 Bugbears had snuck inside to kipnap a dwarf after resucing the dwarf Ruhn realised it was the Weevil a crimminal that had gathered the attention of many organizations in the north for his daring heist. After rescuing him, Ruhn used the leverage to mot only take the money he stole but press the Weevil into his service. Peanut and Oddie proceeded to crub stomp the giant. We rejoin the party the morning after they have enjoyed free room, food and ale.

F&F C2-E59 - How to Make Bug Stew

The Captain of the Harper’s Fury got the Tempests settled into their three week training schedule before departing for High Tide. Halfway through their training, they were given a day off to go visit the Kadali Ruins upon Vanera’s request. Otus took the party up to the ruins and left them to explore on their own. The crumbled walls and remaining statues were overgrown with vines and moss, except for a central pedestal with an empty golden basin on top of it that seemed untouched by the ravages of time. Within was a spherical indentation that seemed to beckon one closer. An urging to place something within. A certain something that was on Vanera’s person: the metallic sphere that had been given to them by Qhiph’aks who assumed the Tempests had dropped it during the fight with the Mushroom Tender so many months ago. Vanera was able to shake off the temptation, the draw to place the sphere into the indentation and promptly checked the pedestal for evil hoodoo-voodoo. A smoky entity was twisting and writhing from the basin, just out of a normal person’s sight. Vanera was able to repel the creature and promptly reached out to Cadall for advice.  The god arrived with thunderous clouds and a great deal of anger. Taking the orb from Vanera, Cadall revealed that they had narrowly avoided a great disaster. Something about the orb releasing a great evil. Things were happening behind the scenes that even he could not foresee and the Tempests were supposedly in the middle of it, foiling whatever plots were underway. He then revealed that these plots had led to the supposed death of Valkyrie, Goddess of the Frozen North in Rokasing. While Zaan proceeded to take his frustrations out on the remaining architecture, Cadall placed his hand on Vanera’s head, telling her to “Learn from the past, so that the future may be saved.” then vanished. Otus came at their call as the skies cleared and brought the party back to Harpermere, where he noticed that Vanera had a horn. A horn that had previously been invisible to all but the innocent. Confused about Cadall’s parting words, the Tempests went to their Wagon home to think about their next steps, wherein Brick asked if Vanera had thought to look at her book which had previously been illegible.

F&F C2-E58 - You Might Want to Mute Him Again

The Tempests had thwarted the assassination attempts on Princess Ena’s life and got a few more puzzling clues towards Zaan’s past. Returning to Harpermere with good news, it seemed that the wedding was back on. But before that, the party checked in with Archmage Otus and learned that the Kadali Ruins had been acting strangely. After a quick, confusing visit to see Grandmaster Puck, the Tempests were given permission to explore the ruins, but only after the wedding to avoid any potential complications at Otus’ request. And what a wedding it was. Otus escorted Vanera to the Wedding and seemed to be an accomplished dancer in his own right. Zaan found himself a partner with Lieutenant Yvonne, a lynx tabaxi, and danced the night away with her until the pair eventually disappeared into the night. King Damien informed Brick and Kasumi, who were avidly avoiding the dance floor, that a ship had been chartered to take them to High Tide as promised for their efforts. The captain of the vessel would allow no idle hands aboard his ship and would require the party to train for a time to become familiar with working aboard the vessel. The king and Emma then forcibly took the pair against their will to the dance floor and after a time, everyone found their way to bed in the wee hours of the morning.

F&F C3-E8 - How Unconscious Is He?

After a few random adventures and deadly encounters, our adventurers left Luskan, the run down City of Sails. After leaving behind a rather trying ordeal, they travelled across the country side. They followed the road to the city of Miramar. This road led them to a strange sight. A battle had taken place on the road between some humanoids and some giants. This battle appeared to have no winners, though Siren spotted some giant sized foot prints leaving the battlefield. They also noticed that whoever had done funeral rights gave the giants no care, but made pyres for the humanoids. The party quickly moved on hoping not to find trouble. They arrived at Mirabar and proceeded to look for lodging. This was delayed as Peanut was suddenly struck by the need to hit something. Some of the party made their way to the Undercity, a district underground and solely occupied by the dwarves. They located a pit fight and approached the manager asking to participate. Peanut fought solo and dominated, whilst Olmec dragged Odie to victory in a duo match. Afterwards, they reconvened at the Polished Shield Inn.

F&F C2-E57 - The Mafia King and His Baths

The Tempests confronted and defeated Baroness Lorella Quint at Emeraldpointe after finding that she was the culprit behind the attempted assassinations on Princess Ena Harpermere. The families of the blackmailed chef and the man who had been disintegrated were found locked within the mansion and quickly freed. Just as things were beginning to calm down, a mysterious figure confronted the Tempests and belittled them and their efforts. With a single explosive spell, the figure nearly wiped out the whole group. Kasumi cast her own spell that made the figure see what it feared most, and in doing so, caused the being to flee, but not before announcing his name: Zephyrus. A week-long journey awaited the party and as they traveled back to Harpermere, they read through the Baroness’ journal to try and piece together what caused her to commit such heinous acts and what she had to do with Zephyrus. After a brief meeting with the King, and many questions about the encounter being dodged by Zaan, the Tempests turned in for the night within the comfort of their wagon home.. The promise of a wedding and discussion about the promised ship awaited them in the coming days.

F&F C3-E7 - I’ve Been Jigglypuffed

Last session, our adventures fought knives, or should I say arrows, in the dark. Fighting often unseen enemies in the warehouse meant to trap them. They realized at some point they were also battling a mage who specialized in illusions and psychic attacks. Ruhn and Olmec were rendered unconscious in the fight. However, their comrades slowly picked off about half of their assailants, and Ruhn was saved from near abduction. Seeing the tide turn and realizing enough noise had been made to attract the guards the enemies still standing made their escape. As the party licked their wounds, they attempted to extract information from Ruhn, but only got scraps. Deciding they needed rest before they struck out on the road, the party rested another night in the inn. As they found sleep, Ruhn found himself visited in his dreams by the very mage who attempted to kidnap him.

F&F C2-E56 - Some Fools are Slower Than Others

The Tempests traveled to Emeraldpointe to confront the Baroness, Lorella Quint, who had attempted to assassinate Princess Ena. Very few words were shared as the Tempests became openly hostile and a battle spanned from outside the mansion, into the interior, and then into another plane of existence entirely. When it seemed the Baroness was on the ropes, she smashed an orb that reinvigorated her, and transported the mansion and everyone within to a plane that seemed very familiar to Zaan. The Baroness seemed possessed,speaking with two voices at once. Her own, and another more malevolent entity. The invader greeted Zaan as their son and seemed eager to dispatch the rest of the party. The Tempests were not so easy a pest to exterminate and with a pair of violent spells from Vanera, the possessed Baroness was slain and the Tempests were violently thrust back to the material plane.

F&F C3-E6 - This Darkness Needs an Ass Kicking

Leaving the Town of Huddlestone, our party of adventures traveled north to the dwarves of Ironmaster to relay a plea from their kindred in Bryn Shander, asking for reinforcements. Having completed their task, the party then traveled south to Luskan, the City of Sails. After haggling with a guard asking for a toll, Siren gave him rocks magiked to look like coins. They found an inn, got some rest and awoke to find their wagon and horses stolen. The party tracked their stolen property to a warehouse where an ambush was sprung. The mastermind behind the trap then attempted to talk, calling someone in the party “Young Master” and told them it wasn’t wise to cross an obviously corrupt guard.

F&F C3-E5 - The ”S” Word

The Murkz 4 Hire arrived at Hundlestone after a brief game of whack-a-worm and were able to check in on Thwip Ironbottom. Thwip gave the party some advice on how to complete their slowly growing to-do list and what routes might be best to take to achieve their current set of goals.
