A group of four companions, recently arrived in Fort Whitevault, sat around a tavern table. There was little conversation exchanged. They’d already traveled a great distance together, each carrying the expectation of being given a first mission in the field from a superior agent from the organization to which they’d pledge their lives: The Spectre … “Session #221 – The Lighthouse at Manustead”

Session #220 – Fort Whitevault
After a short few days of downtime, Jerker arranged a voyage to Fort Whitevault, where they Tienarth had gone in search of materials to complete his refurbishment of the tower back on the Naked Isle. They figured on finding something new along the way, and a trip to Jaguar Paw Island seemed too much of … “Session #220 – Fort Whitevault”
Session #219 – Mayhem at the Wizard’s Crumbling Tower
On the trip back to the Naked Isle, Ghevont solved Jerker’s problem with the cursed mace taken from the goggler champion. Aboard The Ranger, beneath a heavy sky and the creaking of still sails, Ghevont began the Rite of Severance. The crew watched from the edges of the deck, hushed and uneasy. Jerker knelt at … “Session #219 – Mayhem at the Wizard’s Crumbling Tower”
Session #218 – The Citrine Star on Malb’s Island
They had been back on the Naked Isle for only two days, when the itch to adventure called them back to the open sea. The damage to The Ranger was repaired, and Urgesh hired an elf to paint the name of the ship on either side of its bow, a serviceable job, though in no … “Session #218 – The Citrine Star on Malb’s Island”
Session #217 – The Battle of the Workshop of Telescopes
Tienarth’s Raiders stared through the short passage into the larger chamber beyond. As before, the image of death hung in the air, a skeleton in black robes. At floor level was an archway throw which bright light stabbed. “Let’s parlay,” suggested Aderian. The death devil greeted them and explained that the rules required authorization to … “Session #217 – The Battle of the Workshop of Telescopes”
Session #216 – Negation Triumphant, Chamber of Death Breached
The sunrise of the next day (3/29) was particularly beautiful. Silverfish found Aderian and Jerker standing at the fore of The Ranger, out of earshot of Urgesh who fished from the aft. “Regarding the… incident of yesterday. Good heavens… such… thoroughness. One wouldn’t think such unrestrained physicality necessary. Especially given our… shared objective. My dear … “Session #216 – Negation Triumphant, Chamber of Death Breached”
Session #215 – Sadistic Violence and Lust for Loot
The party spent a day (3/21) resupplying on the Naked Isle. They learned the plague, called the Frog Pox, had been sickening the villagers in Osrendell for nearly a month. The infected felt mild discomfort for several days followed by complete incapacitation for a week during which time warts grew on the skin and inside … “Session #215 – Sadistic Violence and Lust for Loot”
Session #214 – Enter the Star Chamber
The long time at sea had drained the stores of food, and by the time anyone thought to count rations (3/14), there was hardly enough to feed the crew and passengers on The Ranger for more than a few days. Sentinel Island was little more than a barren rock, it hadn’t rained in days, and … “Session #214 – Enter the Star Chamber”
Session #213 – Face to Face with Death
A few days (2/24 – 2/27) passed on the ships while the party pondered their next move. When a week had passed (2/28), Urgesh was non-committal, at first declining to return to the island, then reconsidering, finally deciding to stay. Ghevont stayed with him, but this time Bale and Silverfish went with the party with … “Session #213 – Face to Face with Death”
Session #212 – Urgesh Goes Insane
A week was spent on the ships, anchored at Sentinel Isle. Elaria spent some time copying spells from Tienarth. Ghevont looked for divine truth by way of a deep trance. He wondered if the party should be following the quest. Dreaming, he found himself in a jungle where masses of bugs gathered. On one side … “Session #212 – Urgesh Goes Insane”
