The Party[ | ]
(Anna) Evelyn - Human Paladin of Lathander
(Holly) Strix - Tiefling Sorcerer
(ProJared) Diath - Human Rogue
Camp Vengeance[ | ]
The group is in the jungle of Chult with Dragonbait and Umbril, the cleric of Torm. They are bringing Umbril to a camp, and they're searching for the ruins of Orolunga.
Last episode, Evelyn communed with Saint Andral, who serves her god, Lathander. He gave her the power to become a mega-construct.
The heroes come to a camp that has stakes set up outside of it that impale dinosaurs who get too close. Amongst the dinosaur corpses they notice some large frog carcasses. They are grung, humanoid frog-people with poisonous skin.
The waffle crew is spotted by guards on watchtowers. A military organization known as the Order of the Gauntlet is camped here.
The group meets Commander Breakbone, who's a bit of a jerk. They meet Ord Firebeard, a dwarf. Paultin gets hung up on these last names, which are clearly inaccurate representations of the NPCs. Ord's beard is not ablaze and Breakbone's limbs show no evidence of fracture.
The Order of the Gauntlet wants to draft the waffle crew into service. They're having problems with the grung. After much back and forth, the group agrees to go find where the grung live to see what can be done about this.
The adventurers explore the camp a bit, and meet some depressed soldiers. Evelyn heals a few sick and injured soldiers.
In Search of Grung[ | ]
The group heads into the jungle on the following day. They enter a dark section of the jungle, where they spot some moss and mushrooms. Strix realizes that the mushrooms are called "zabu". They can explode. They're like fungus grenades.
Suddenly, poison arrows are fired down from the trees. The waffle crew is under attack! There's a total of 12 grung spread out over 3 trees. 4 grung in one tree, and 4 in another.
Waffles is hit three times with poison arrows. Diath scampers up a tree and stabs a grung. Natural 20! Paultin uses crown of madness on a grung.
Strix shrugs and fireballs a bunch of them. Diath rolls another 20! Only 4 remain. They flee. Diath notes which direction they run in.
Dragonbait taps Paultin on the shoulder. He points to a foot-tall grung nearby. It's purple, and it is stepping out of a bush. It stares at Paultin with big blinking eyes.
The group realizes they might have just killed this kid's parents. End of session.
