==Summary== === Episode 24 - The Twitching Hour === ==== The Party ==== ([[Anna Prosser Robinson|Anna]]) [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] - Human Paladin of Lathander ([[Erika Ishii|Erika]]) [[Dee]] - Human Fighter ([[Commander Holly|Holly]]) [[Strix]] - Tiefling Sorcerer ([[ProJared]]) [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] - Human Rogue This session took place live at TwitchCon. ==== Return to Tsolenka Pass ==== [[Chris Perkins|Chris]] reminds [[Strix]] that she was just brought back to life, so she only has one hit point. Evelyn heals her for 20 more. The heroes survived the roc's attack, but the wagon fell into the chasm. They cross the bridge. They spot the two [[vrock]] statues that gave them so much trouble last time.<ref>[[Episode 17]]</ref> The statues come to life. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] knows their truenames. They back off. He casts ''dispel magic'' to remove the sheet of green flame. The live crowd actually yells "green flame" when this happens. The adventurers see that [[Dee]] is waiting for them with the horses. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] is happy to see her. They ride to [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]]'s tower. Outside of the tower is a wagon. The two wolf hunter brothers from [[Vallaki]] are here - Szoldar and Yevgeni. They're hiding from the eyes and ears of [[Count Strahd von Zarovich|Strahd]]. ==== Van Richten's Tower ==== To open the door of the tower, [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] does a dance. Evelyn quietly tries to memorize his dance. She rolls well and succeeds in doing so. [[Dee]] insists that this tower is actually called "Dee's Tower." [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] goes along with it after she glares at him. The tower was made by a wizard named Khazan, there's an anti-magic aura here. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] says that he recently had a dream about the group. The group is a little curious. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] doesn't want to elaborate. The heroes notice that [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]] is intensely staring at [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] . Once inside, [[Dee]] goes to get something to eat from a chest. Some of the heroes peer in and spot a severed head in there. The group is alarmed. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] says that it is the severed head of a [[vistani]]. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] and [[Dee]] sleep in the same bed. [[Dee]] is thrilled. It isn't long before their snoring is coordinated. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] decides to subtly keep watch while everyone sleeps. ==== Paultin's Shadow ==== There's a shadow on the wall creeping toward [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]]. It's [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]]'s shadow! [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] yells out and throws a dagger. He rolls poorly and hits [[Strix]] in the head with the hilt. Knowing that [[Count Strahd von Zarovich|Strahd]] can manipulate the shadows, [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] snatches the [[Strahd doll]]. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] says that it is an effigy that can trap [[Count Strahd von Zarovich|Strahd]] inside of it. The ritual needs to be completed. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] says that this thing could be the key to defeating [[Count Strahd von Zarovich|Strahd]]. He says that they need some ingredients, including the hairpin of a hag, which [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] got off of a dead hag at Old Bonegrinder. There's cackling outside. It's a black-clad figure flying on a broom. More than one. Witches! One is a man-witch! There's wolves, too. ==== The Witches ==== The group wants to lean out of the window to circumvent the tower's anti-magic aura and make ranged attacks. A hag throws a vial through the window, which [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] swats with [[Lightfall]]. It shatters and she gets ichor all over her. [[Strix]] rolls to see if she knows what it is. She rolls a 20. She knows that it is demon ichor and that it will form into a demon. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] says that there's holy water in [[Ezmerelda]]'s wagon. The group has some holy water. Another flask of goo is chucked through the window. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] casts ''magic weapon'' on [[Dee]]'s shield. They can hear the wolf hunters outside fighting the wolves. [[Strix]] can't cast spells in the tower, so she takes a dead rat and chucks it at the ooze. [[Commander Holly|Holly]] actually has a rat prop in her pocket and throws it into the crowd. The ooze climbs inside the dead rat and brings it to life. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] kills the rat. The crowd applauds. The ooze spews out of every rat orifice. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] stabs it "right in the middle of the rat puddle." [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] goes outside to help the wolf hunters. They killed over a dozen wolves. She kills two. A witch hits [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] with a ''ray of sickness''. She takes 15 poison damage. She makes her save, but she's unconscious. The rest of the group comes outside. [[Strix]] drops the man-witch with a ''magic missile''. He falls from the sky and lands right on the top of the wagon. On her next turn, she kills another witch with the same spell. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] tries to pick up the broom of the man-witch. It attacks him and hits him twice. The group realizes that [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] is up in the tower alone with [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]]. It sounds like they are fighting. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] hits the broom, but it lives. It hits him back. Then the other broom comes at Diath, doing 7 points of damage, dropping him to 0 hit points. The crowd is dying of laughter. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] was defeated by a broom. [[ProJared|Jared]]'s head is on the table. [[Anna Prosser Robinson|Anna]]: "Looks like you really got swept away there, [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]]." Crowd groans. [[Strix]] continues her assault as she kills 15 wolves with a ''fireball''. One broom is destroyed. The other is on fire and comes at [[Strix]]. It hits her once for 4 points of damage. [[Strix]] finishes it off. Wolf hunters kill the fire broom. ==== Inside the Tower ==== [[Dee]] hears [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]] and [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] fighting in the tower. Dee heads inside. [[Dee]] sees [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] trying to stab [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]] with a pin. [[Dee]] splits them up. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] says he needs [[vistani]] blood. [[Dee]] convinces [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] to come outside to heal [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] and [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]]. [[Rudolph van Richten|Van Richten]] heals [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] and [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]]. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] asks, "Can you heal shame?" Outside, [[Strix]] points out that she killed almost everything. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] asks her if she wants a hug. She says no, but [[Dee]] and [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] rush her and make a [[Strix]] sandwich. That's where the session ends.{{Episode nav|state=expanded}} [[Category:Episodes]]
