Peradventure

As the two Toad Cultists (apparently clerics?!) went to open up the cages full of stirges and feral toad-men, Lunethalas acted quickly to Web the cleric and the stirges all in one go, as Kirilov and Amity quickly climbed to join him, Amity lifting the others up before herself.

A massive melee was entered, with feral juvenile toads biting at everyone, including the cleric that freed them. Both Kirilov and Amity succumbed to those teeth, suffering death briefly before being returned by two more doses of the healing waters.

The party released the human prisoners, with Kirilov doing enough to assuage them to stay and wait to make an escape together, at least, and to hold arms, though they would not seek out combat.

Miraculously, they managed to find a night's worth of sleep without interruption, after Amity piled the cages to block the main approach from the east.

The next day, they determined to cause destruction to the vats of toadspawn eggs and a statue of the Toad-God in the next cavern. They elected not to fuss with the accompanying alchemical equipment for the moment. 

As expected, their noise drew further attention, though the three priests who arrived were quickly dispatched by Amity after Lunethalas used his spells to put them to sleep and further wrap them in webs.

In what seemed to be the final chamber in this section of the caverns, a higher-ranking priest stirred some of the vile alchemical concoction into a pool with the cavern's tadpoles. The party quickly brought him down, carving through the tadpoles themselves on their way to him.

The priests quarters and that priest they met had some interesting stuff on them!

  For the moment I'm playing catch-up and my details will be sparse. Player Characters Lunethelas, Level 1 Dark-Aligned Elf. Young Qualinesti unsatisfied with his lot. Amity, Level 1 Light-Aligned Fighter. Orphan and troublemaker of the town of Haven. Crowfoot, Level 1 Neutral-Aligned Thief. Bureaucrat of the Seeker faith. Taken Amity under his wing. Hangers-on Rhona, Level 1 Neutral-Aligned Ranger of Long Ridge. Peradventure Long Ridge is a minor town of mixed usage, with both mining and farming and a semi-sedentary group of Que plainsfolk living nearby and interacting with everyone else. Having arrived under foolish pretenses, Amity and Crowfoot meet up with Lunethelas and Rhona and agree to take on a desperate errand for a local named Duncan: a recent rockslide has both injured his daughter and revealed a path to a long-lost temple to the mostly forgotten goddess Mishikal. Duncan is convinced a way to heal his daughter might be found there where it couldn't be found elsewher...

  Player Characters Amity, Light Fighter 2, Butcher, Sword Specialist Kirilov, Neutral Cleric of Habbakuk 2, Healer, Barber/Surgeon, Endless Endurance, still no divine abilities. Nine fingers. Lunethalas, Dark Elf 1, Sword Specialist, Polyglot, Naturalist, Master Historian Hangers-on Rhona, Neutral Ranger 1, Sword Specialist, Naturalist Elka Reed, whose dead mom they found earlier. A 0-level villager they've hired to follow them around and sketch the amazing sights they discover. Peradventure While Breadington was excpected to return to the dungeon, a last minute consultation he was providing for villagers about the installation of stone countertops kept him away. Returning to the fun stone cylinder door device, the party decided to explore the side of the contraption that didn't seem to stab anything and discovered, turning 90 degrees, two golden offering bowls in front of a stone dragon idol - and also the apple they had been testing with on their previous excursion. The took...

Unwilling to believe the Gods are truly gone. Breadington, Level 1 Light Dwarf. Hill Dwarf of culinary pursuits. Peradventure L, A, and C's success in their last adventure is heard of around town, and they join up with newcomers Kirilov and Breadington. They return to the temple to explore those sections they'd previously missed and see if they can't find evidence of the remaining villagers.  While showing their new companions around, the party is tracked by a giant, spitting, hunting spider, who is overheard and dispatched with burning oil before it can spring its own trap. Burning oil further frightens off a pack of oversized rats from its lair, but several other groups of rats harry the party, with several climbing on and infecting Breadington with their nasty rat diseases, necessitating a use of the Waters of ...
