Chris (Houra) Session Notes 5/26/14

 1372c Year of Wild Magic, Day 21-24, Month of Eleint
 
Tatertot has abandonded us to go join the couple having sex in the cabin, but was quickly killed in an unfortunate BDSM scenario when she forgot the safeword and choked on a salmon. <-This is now game canon. Fear my power as recorder of things.

Since none of us noticed, or cared, that she was gone, how we know her ultimate fate still remains a mysery, (INTRIGUE) but suffice it to say that we do. After a brief, REALLY brief, moment of silence Woolie the Raven finds us in a lurch....wood. (BAM, get ready, theres a lot of these) He lets us know that our dear friend and supplier of beverages, Gerald, has news for us. We quickly abandon all hope of rescuing Tatertot from suffocation by salmon, and head back to Milford.
 
Jeneliths dead, (Again, totally hawkeyes fault) which means no more pesky god breathing down oour neck and watching us poop.  She did manage to get a few details about the slow and agonizing way that she died out before she finally passing on to wherever spirits not ever worth summoning go. Apparently a mentally handicapped man who smelt of fish was taking her to the Thornwood.  (Probably should have kept Tatertot around to seduce this guy, she was apparently into that) This is the guy that organized the ambush and almost killed us?! (Note: stop mentioning that to people!)

So we went to find something else to do. Houra wisely sugggested avoiding Towser for a while because the guys annoying and terrible and it'll be at least a week before he gets his stupid spell things so he's useless till then anyway. But also because he's probably not too happy about the whole "got your apprentice kidnapped and murdered" thing. (Again, totally Hawkeyes fault.)

We went too some rich guys place instead. Mauti talked shit to old rich guys kid, then barely managed to defeat him in "practice combat," even with Houra awesomely and heroically helping.
Old dude gave us some useless info and a horse voucher, but his library was awesome. Gotta remember to check out that other castle. Also, gottta remember not to tell the others about that other castle...

Dear Diary 11AM:
Today is the best day of my life. I met a wonderful man. He stood up for me when no one else would. To the left, to the left. My love will always be there siddling off to the left.

Dear Diary 12:30 PM:
Mautilis is a poop head.

Dear Diary 1:00 PM:
Today is the best day of my life. I met a wonderful woman. She stood up for me when no one else would.

Dear Diary 4:00 PM:
My sweetheart and I defeated a horde of spiders together. She is my light and my heart.

Dear Diary 4:05 PM:
MY HEART IS BROKEN! I SHALL NEVER LOVE AGAIN!

Ok but seriously, why do we even bring Cooper on these things? I'm pretty sure he's not actually a ranger, he might actually just be the town drunk. Those spiders bit the shit outta Hawkeye. Mautilis still seems to assume everyone is as badass as he is, which is clearly not the case, given the drunk guys inability to even maintain an erect...person.

We're going back to coopers.

Fuck the outside.
 
(ed. Jelen was found by Oleanne, but too far gone to be healed. Oleanne set off scouting. Party met Count Parlfray his son Lyntern. Lyntern was successfully dissuaded from joining the party by Mautilis during some practice sparring (those crits!). After leaving Parlfray's keep, the party attempted another foray into the Thornwood with Kuiper's assistance only to be met by stiff eight-legged resistance. 
 
With Hawkeye no stronger than a kitten, the party retreated to Milford to let him sleep it off while they gathered information. Except Felisin, who drank a lot and seduced a farmer's daughter. Fortunately, Hawkeye and Houra overheard a young boy telling his friends a tale about "blue skinned fiends" on the edge of New Mire and the Patchwork Hills.)
