Recap of 2/24 session - trouble in cave city
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 7:15 pm
So, to sum up what I remember happening, we were at the outskirts of the pale market, and as a group decided to approach the central pillar to find a way up to the upper level, where we figured our house was. Upon arriving at the central pillar, we learned (too late for some of us) that the central pillar was not a way up, but the city's main temple and/or senate or some such revered meeting place. With the throngs entering therein to push us forward, Jheru, Gavin, and Thyur managed to offend and attack the matriarch guarding the gate. The three of us were eventually subdued and taken away for torture and fleshwarping. The more cautious of the group (Skender, Carlila, Phil, Jorm, Cutheric) were able to distance themselves from our folly, and buy lizards to travel up to the upper level. They eventually found our house and met the first son and his brother. The tortured members of the party were eventually deposited at the house as well.
The party then met with the first son and learned that the basement was sealed as it held an out of control gate to another plane. The party volunteered to go into the basement and recover the bowl by which control of the gate could be reestablished, thereby earning favor with the house. We entered the basement, and found are way into a room with an extra-planar creature who offered us chances at pulling cards from a Deck of Many Things - and many of the party did so.
That is where we left off.
Please feel free to add anything of import I may have forgotten.
Perhaps it would also be good to use this thread to consolidate info on boons/curses from the Deck and/or our torture and fleshwarping, so that we can hash out details before the next session.
Also, we may want to plan what our next move is, as I'm not sure if there is another egress out of this room, but it doesn't seem like we've found the bowl yet.
