When the party finally searched the fountain they found a magical +1 Orb of Inevitable Continuance. After almost failing three death saves last week I can’t blame him for being so cautious. Having Jarren stay so far out of the battle meant he was completely safe. Good tactics and three strikers made a huge difference. I missed him with 6 consecutive attacks near the end of the battle. The defender took a lot of damage, but not nearly as much as I expected him to take. The party made short work of the Ochre Jellies after they split into smaller creatures, easily destroying then all. Thankfully, Valenae kept healing him and providing resist 2 to all damage.

The Battlemind continued drawing attack from the marked Ochre Jellies and took a lot of hits during the fight. One round latter they blooded it and it too split into two smaller oozes. Belgos kept firing from the other side of the battle, but wasn’t able to get up the wall no matter how hard and how often he tried.Īfter the first little ooze fell Keira and the Battlemind focused on the larger original Ochre Jelly. Jarren continued providing ranged support from almost 20 squares away, hitting more often than not with Arc Lightning. They then focused on one of the smaller oozes killing it in the next round. That’s when it split into two smaller Ochre Jellies, something the party was well aware would happen. The heroes decided to focus fire on the ooze that was more hurt, bloodying it. The creatures tag-teamed the Battlemind, hitting him hard and dealing ongoing acid damage. Jarren used Magic Missile from way off in the distance, hitting an ooze. Valenae hit early and granted everyone temporary hit points. The Rogue and Keira each took different oozes and both dealt a lot of damage early. Next the Battlemind marked both oozes and attacked. He then used his breath weapon to deal the first blow against the ooze. However he couldn’t find secure footing and failed. Belgos shifted away from the adjacent ooze and then tried to scale the wall and get a better vantage point from which to use his bow. Valenae and Keira both knew all about these Ochre Jellies and informed the party. The oozes moved swiftly, and got right next to the party. As soon as they got near the fountain, everyone but the Rogue rolled exceptional Perception checks (three 20s and a 19) and spotted two very large oozes emerging from within the fountain. Together they all move towards the fountain and South East tower. They explored the base they found strange writing on the original castle cornerstone but no one in the party could decipher it.Įveryone but Jarren met up near the fountain where they traded stories of their findings. As they passed by the base of the main tower they decided that the fountain could wait. Wife and friend.”īelgos spotted a fountain near the South East tower and really wanted to check it out.

One of them bore the inscription “Oldivya Vladstone. They appeared well tended despite their age. Valenae passed the wagon and ventured towards the graveyard where she found 13 gravestones. They found nothing of note, but figured the wagon was easily salvageable with a bit of work.

Keira and the Battlemind explored the North West tower and an old abandoned wagon nearby. He climbed on top of the wall and observed. Jarren decided to stay near the main gate and keep watch. It’s harmless but noticeable to all passing through the main gate.Īfter passing through the main gate the party decided to split up to cover more ground. The arch has long been destroyed, but the supporting columns still radiated a faint residual protective aura. The main gate was at one point a great archway. Jarren decided to check for magical auras and found one. When the group reached the front gate, or what’s left of it, they did a preliminary search. The party, this week consisting of Belgos (the Dragonborn), Jarren, Keira, Valenae, a Battlemind and another Rogue, agreed to check it out. They look abandoned from here, but better safe than sorry. Splintershield asks the PCs to check the actual ruins. Malgram and his Rangers agree to search the perimeter.
