Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, D0: Hollow’s Last Hope, from Paizo. Although it is not being used “as written,” spoilers may certainly be in the writeup below.

[This entry marks Todd's triumphant return to the session logs. As always, my GM comments in italics and brackets.]

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Jacob’s Well, from Dungeon Magazine #43 as well as D0: Hollow’s Last Hope from Paizo. Although neither are being used “as written,” spoilers for both may certainly be in the writeup below.

[This entry is from Rachel. As always, my GM comments in italics and brackets. It has been well over a week since this session and in that time, I hit up a few breweries and a great brewfest, Hickory Hops, in North Carolina so my memory of things may be a bit fuzzy and thus my comments more sparse than normal.]

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Jacob’s Well, from Dungeon Magazine #43. I’m not actually using it but it was certainly inspirational and provides a framework for the current situation.

[This entry is from Robert. As always, my GM comments in italics and brackets.]

The Velvetama had just killed Taran, and Erfiði the goat was running around as goats are wont to do. We were prepared to do battle, when a fire bolt shot out of the falling snow, nearly hitting Tor. The velvetama then leap 25 feet, landing on the roof of the stables and out of sight.

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Lair of the Vermin Lord, from Triple Ace Games…we’ve wrapped it up but there may be still be references back to it. There may also be spoilers for the adventure, Jacob’s Well, from Dungeon Magazine #43. I’m not actually using it but it was certainly inspirational and provides a framework for the current situation.

[This entry is from Jamie and is from the perspective of a survivor of the current troubles in Dalsetter and is many years in the future. He took some significant liberties with backstory that, well, isn't the actual backstory from the game (not that he or the other players know the backstory of what happened at Danr's). As always, my GM comments in italics and brackets...there will be quite a few since a lot of what happened isn't covered due to the creative form.]

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Lair of the Vermin Lord, from Triple Ace Games.

[This entry is from Rachel. It covers the evening of the 2nd Milcdaeg of Snaermonon to the evening of the 2nd Endedaeg. As always, my comments are italicized and in brackets.]

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Lair of the Vermin Lord, from Triple Ace Games.

[Here is the deal I have with my players. Whoever does the campaign log gets a free Benny at the next session as long as it is done in a fairly timely manner and isn't totally half-ass. If no one does it and I have to do it, everyone loses a Benny at the next session. As you may have guessed after reading this, everyone is losing a Benny at the next session 'cause I'm doing the campaign log.]

When we last left our intrepid heroes, more…

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Lair of the Vermin Lord, from Triple Ace Games.

[This entry is from RJ. For some reason, he believes that paragraph breaks are a plot by Thyrm to expand the Hellfrost and so avoids using them. I know, RJ has issues. As usual, my comments in brackets and italics.] 

We are at the store… more…

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Lair of the Vermin Lord, from Triple Ace Games.

[This entry is from Rachel and marks a return to the more traditional campaign log approach...not as colorful or creative as Jamie's wonderful prose but certainly quite informative and a bit easier for someone not in the campaign to follow. As usual, my comments in brackets and italics.] 

We were interrupted from checking more…

Warning: Potential spoilers below for the adventure, Lair of the Vermin Lord, from Triple Ace Games.

After having been away from the Freeport campaign for such a long time, I’ve decided to go ahead and start up the Hellfrost campaign instead of going back to Freeport. The current PCs include:

One of our out-of-state friends and players, Pat, was in town visiting and bearing gifts of beer in the hopes of getting in on a game. Given where we were with the Freeport game, I didn’t want to try and work in another character. Especially since there would be a good chance that the character would then need to be played by someone else in later sessions until the character would leave, die, whatever in a not overly contrived fashion. So, instead, we did a pulp adventure (Daring Tales of Adventure #2: Web of the Spider Cult)…which is carrying over into this week and that’s a good thing since another out of town friend/player is visiting this week.
