D&D Session 19 - Are you my Daddy?
Oct. 3rd, 2017 09:14 pmI'm getting later and later with these, and I really need to get back on track with them.
With only three players this week, I was expecting something pretty quiet. That was... kind of the case. Getting called before the ruler and his generals, Kaz came face to face with someone who is pretty clearly his father. This provoked feelings. I'm going to have to figure out what I want Kaz to do with this information.
Anyway, we managed to talk our way into NOT getting killed for killing the paladin (lenient DM FTW), as long as we found the creatures that really had been murdering people. We were given an NPC associate, who was essentially a placeholding fop until the rest of the group gets back, to assist us, and we ditched him pretty quickly when we were offered a clandestine meeting with another group.
Our DM is great at giving us so many options and quest hooks and potential plot lines, but a LOT of them are either/or situations, and we tend to bite at whatever is in front of us, rather than what we're MEANT to be doing.
This new group wanted us to check out an old fortress that used to be the seat of power in the land, until a rebellion led to it being abandoned. This rebellion claimed the life of the ambassador of this group, so they want proof the ambassador was murdered. I honestly can't remember if we agreed or not - I know Kaz was in, since he wants to get the frak out of the city where his dad is and where his best friend died. But before we left we really had to clear our names, so we headed off to a graveyard, where lo and behold, there was a crypt that led to the sewers.
We foolishly started wandering through the sewers and immediately got jumped by three vampires. I thought we were screwed, the cleric was ready to die heroically, but in the process of running away, we actually managed to kill two of the critters. Yay, victory! We also now had proof of the real murderers, so we took that back to the rulers and had our names cleared.
We've been given lodgings at the house of a noble, and no doubt we'll head towards the front of the current rebellion pretty soon. Pretty sure Kaz is going to punch his dad out, once he realises he's his dad.
