Previously…
The party has
taken a contract from the Eldritch Gauntlet to Discover why Castle Kraal sank
into the Black Swamp .
Travelling by boat, the party arrived just north of the castle, having
to travel only a few miles to reach there.
After finding the castle grounds and
exploring the bailey area, they cleared the barracks and had Justin and Deanna
set their camp there. On approaching the
main keep doors, the party was swarmed by several dozen stirges. The creatures seemed endless until a quirk of
magic opened the sealed entry into the keep.
The party then seized the opportunity to escape and shut the door behind
them. Unfortunately, the doors relocked
when closed.
Cautiously exploring the long
corridors, the party noticed an odd echo effect within the keep. Sounds reverberate through the corridors and
are magnified greatly, thus a few people moving through the corridors sound
like several dozen people. The first door
the party came to was locked. Chad dutifully
attempted to pick the lock but failed.
This failure meant that someone had to force the door open. Bellen accepted the challenge, and with a
loud bang, the door was forced open.
The reptilian inhabitants of the room
were ready, however, and a battle ensued.
Rhoen remained outside the room and soon noticed that the “attack” on
the door was loud enough to attract another band of reptile men. Two small battles went on and the party was
victorious.
Facts:
- The party fought 2 different types of
reptilians.
- One type was locked in a room. The lock was only on the outside.
- No treasure was recovered after a
search.
- The spellcaster escaped but could not
leave the keep.
This is what the scene looked like after the battle.
