Image
Reminder, this campaign is presented in a "recap" format with the full notes from the session provided towards the end.  == RECAP ==  The Showdown in the Marketplace Arden's main plan is still to talk to Leonardo Miller and try to get another ally on his side. He goes off to do that the next day with Izzia Kor and Natalia Wilson being sent back to the library to try and track down any information. However, on his way to find Leonardo, he finds the Probationary Guardian not in his barracks. A Retainer shows up and tells Arden that trouble is brewing in the marketplace and requests Guardian Ulet's presence. Arden runs to the area.  Here he finds Leonardo confronting Senior Agent Jalmar Dax. Leonardo is not alone (though his ally-in-chaos, actually the perpetrator of this confrontation, is mostly overlooked by Arden). The shopkeeper is Edmund Wright.

It is a work of careful creation and would be worth 1000s of gp if it could be carefully taken down and preserved. The other main function is for defense. There is a ledge allow for battle with some protection. Jonias was experimenting with special weapons that could channel the Light but never finished them. His notes are downstairs but it would take some time and skill.  The Cultists There are twelve cultists. 10 of them have the following stats: Cultists, Regular AC 14 (chainmail + shield), HP 9, ATK 1 longsword +1 (1d8) or 1 spell +2, MV

Doug's Reminder: the "Recap" section is a dramatized, simplified version of what happened during play. The "Actual Play Notes" section is for the notes taken during play that details about the rolls and thought processes and shows my overall play patterns. The Stone Crack'd, Part 1 == Recap == "Guardian Ulet! GUARDIAN ULET!"  Arden has been on a dead run for several minutes trying to get to the library at the Hub University to meet with Izzia Kor. The Order Scholar has agreed to help with tracking down the Marel Obelisk even though Arden has been a bit secretive on actual reasons, hoping for a chance to meet with Izzia a bit more privately.  The voice behind him pulls him to a stop and Arden turns and sees a scrawny, shorter man dressed like a underpaid priest hobbling after him.
