Mid-Summer's Eve

2007 Apr 6
Hopefully Adam, Steve, Justin, or Chris can stop in and fill in what I missed. I know the adventure was scheduled to start around 7:30 pm, I didn't arrive until nearly 9 pm.


When I arrived the group was celebrating Mid-Summer's Eve in a small town, the name of which I missed (as I wasn't currently in the campaign, I saw no reason to take any notes). After the celebration the guys decided to continue their journey to The Whitelands, using Tyke's teleportation spell of all things.

Unfortunately, the spell did not go off as planned. The group arrived in a wooded area completely unfamiliar to any. After exploring the surround region Rondax noticed the tracks of what looked to be Hell hounds. Shortly after discovering the tracks, the group discovered the source of the tracks and the amount of trouble they were in.

Out of the woods appeared a demon with two Nessian Warhounds, and a flying female orc of an unidentifed clan and power, possibly a witch. Rondax's quick thinking and successful trip, saved the group from the demon's glaive. With the demon partially disabled the remainder of the group moved in to aid in the attack. Tyke also removed a threat to group by placing the orc in a sphere (name??) .

Bono, always seeking the upper hand in combat decided to summon a little extra help. Instead Sol Blackstar found himself standing between the demon and one of the war hounds. Fortunately Sol had just left a ceremonial gathering in Copperwell and was looking forward to a night of drinking once he removed his armor and weapons. Quickly apprising the situation, Sol joined the group in dispatching the demon and both war hounds.

With the three outlanders dispatched, the group turned their collective attention to the witch, who by now had escaped from the sphere. When she realized her entourage was dead, the witch attempted to escape. Jean-Luc, endowed with a fly spell from Tyke, and Rondax pursued with the remainder of the group a short distance behind, well everyone except for Sol. Between Rondax's attacks from the ground and Jean-Luc's sword slashes the witch fell from the sky.

After pilfering her dead, battered body the group continued exploring the surrounding area attempting to determine their location. As a point of interest, they discovered what appears to be a druidic stash located on a ley line. Here the group rested for the night deciding to attempt another teleport on the morrow.

Tyke's teleportation attempts proved successful and the group arrived safely in The Whitelands, where we decided to call it a night.
