Hall of Reflections - Contest of Champions Pt2 and a discovery !!!

Episode 6: Oct 27, 2008

Scenario after scenario pass by as the party completes the 1st part of the Champions Games. Scenarios of intelligence and thought processes are attempted and mostly successful. Well done !! Results will be posted outside the Coliseum in a coupld of days time, once all of the teams has passed through. At that point, more details on the 2nd half of the games will be given.

As the party discuss their exploits within the scenarios, they go about and buy some replanishment of their items. They also use the influence of both their paladin and cleric to see if they can get 'sponsored' for items by their respective churches ( ie.. As you look about the slain foes, you mutter to yourself: This ass kickin brought to you by the Church of Pelor, open eternally and accepting donations in a most heavenly manner !! )

The party also take the time to go and talk to Capt Tarquin of the town militia. When last we saw him, he was blankly staring at the party as his mid was taken over, in the jail, by a mindflayer. The party wanted to warn him of what is going on and see if they could help him. His appearence was disheveled and he seem haggard. They explained to him his situation, of being a mindless drone, and then they talked of how they could help each other. They discussed the location of the beggars gold fungus, found on the clothes and boots of the slain drow, and that they needed access into the city sewers. Tarquin made them members of an elite guard gestapo .. err.. fighting force that only answered to him. He went off to discuss tactics with Eligos while the party made their way to the forge and then found an opening near the waterway of the forge.

The party eventually got into the sewers through a grate that hooked up to the crevice entrance. Further along the sewers theny encountered some corpses, bloated and with apparent dagger cuts, floating in the nutty refuse. They aos found, on 1 of the intersection walls, a symbols not unlike that found upon the brow of the Telakin, the doppleganger mage and orc barbarian, they had encountered previously. This discovery was quickly put to the side as they were ambushed and taken advantage of by a lunbering slow gelatinous cube of DOOM !!!

Eventually, minus equipment and clothing, the party came out of the fight victorious. DAMN that acid and its everything-in-its-path-eating ability !!! But their victory came about due to the power of Heironeus and Pelor, as seen in such specials as 'Heres a Pelorian Battle Axe Bitches !!!'

The party return topside and replanish their items once more before making their way back to the symboled wall under the forge

Take note of next session date of THURSDAY NOV 13th at Joe's place !!!
