The Greyhawk Campaign

  After the long day's, and night's, travel, the party rested a whole day in Molvar before venturing out into the town on the morning of the 23rd of Wealsun, Sunday. They had a list of things to accomplish, and set about spending the entire day. Iambred visited the Grand Temple, but didn't say much... Truth be told, he stood around and looked shifty until he finally figured he'd best be moving on, since the priests and patrons were starting to pay him notice. The Temple was a large, L-shaped building with a courtyard between the wings, and a low, wide tower at the end of one wing. A fountain burbled in the courtyard. Meanwhile, Lincoln and Uh-Oh started their morning by visiting Zapzomeb, Uh-Oh's wizard mentor. Zapzomeb lives in the southern ghettos of Molvar, in a squat, round, stone-constructed hovel with a thatched roof. Upon entering, one if met by a fireplace in the center, whose chimney juts up through the thatch. A handful of counters, seating, and some food ...

Using their movement of 12 miles per travel day, they were able to easily traverse two hexes. As long as they had stayed on track, this would place them an easy day-and-a-half trip from Molvar. Six hours into their nocturnal journey, they encountered a herd of 30 or 40 large, lowing animals. Unsure of their nature, Uh-Oh, Lincoln, and Iambred slipped quietly around them and continued on their way. At 6am, the sun rose... Directly to their left. Unfortunately, if they'd navigated correctly, this should have been more behind them, indicating they got lost somewhere in the night. What's more, in the sunrise, they saw a distant house complex, which they had not passed on their way out. As the sun rose, tired, and ne...

Hand-drawn map. Deanna, playing Lincoln the Dwarf, is out mapper, taking verbal mapping commands from me during play. Today's session included a large amount of the kids pouring over this map, as they caught all the symmetry clues that led them to discover the treasure rooms. The game session started where the last one had left off... The PCs had just discovered a large, 20x20 room full of Obsidian objects. While all had some value as treasure, none were particularly valuable on their own. Lincoln took 200cn worth of arrowheads, worth a few hundred xp. Using the map, they realized there was a similar square-shaped void a little to the northwest. Searching for the secret keyhole, twenty feet up in the ceiling (for which they had discovered two 10-foot poles that screwed together, with a special candle-snuffer on one end, just high enough to reach the ceiling holes), they were able to open the Crystal Room. Remembering the library records they'd found earlier, which mentioned fou...
