Cookies! Cookies are turning into quite the commodity in the campaign. Markus was actually relatively well-behaved this session…at least he didn’t pull the party into yet another side quest related to his libido. The Windler House was explored a bit more and a new ally finally showed up. Ansel showed up. He’s another resident of Ragged Hollow and was on Halloo with the others. He wasn’t able to return with the others because his wizard mentor wanted a little more time to teach Ansel another spell.
Yes, we have a new player joining us in this session. Pete is playing Ansel, a wizard. On his way back to Ragged Hollow, he heard a good bit about Markus and his, um, exploits. Getting to Ragged Hollow, it was quickly apparent that something was terribly wrong and Ansel was quickly directed to catch up with Dieter, Liesl, and Marlena as they were looking into what was going on.
