#02 The Public Bath Episode

February 17, 2022

Location: Velkynvelve

during the demon attack...

  • Party barricades themselves inside the dining hall & kitchen
  • Dibrael revives Mylz; Dibrael then introduces himself and Mylz recognizes his name
  • Skjorn rushes to raid the kitchen & most people steal food to bulk up their rations
  • Jimjar claims to be injured, so Ront carries him bridal-style; Skjorn genuinely doesn't understand helping the weak

Party exits the cave and debates on how to escape in all the mayhem

  • they decide not to take the lift to the cavern floor since it's guarded by 2 quaggoth slaves
  • they realize they cannot climb down since they would fall directly into giant spider webs

Party take turns jumping down the waterfall into the pool below

  • Zaz carries Junior as he glides down, but falls into the water since he can't see
  • Mylz pulls Zaz out of the water and lights a torch for the benefit of those without darkvision

Party discusses where to go next

  • Buppido suggests his home city of Gracklstugh, where they will be able to get better supplies and such
  • Junior pleads for Party to take it home to Neverlight Grove, though it doesn't know the way
    • Sarith offers to navigate there and says it's a good place for sanctuary
  • Shuushar suggests his home village of Sloobludop, as it has access to the Darklake which can reach the other destinations

An injured vrock suddenly falls from the battle above and lands in front of Party

  • Skjorn offers it some fruit, which it aggressively takes (injuring him in the process)
  • Dibrael throws another piece of fruit away from the party; it takes the bait and takes to the skies shortly after

end quest: Escape from Velkynvelve

begin quest: Destination: Sloobludop & Destination: Neverlight Grove


Location: The Underdark

Party makes their way to Sloobludop

  • Party has proper introductions during long hours of walking through boring tunnels
  • Eldeth comments that it'd be best to leave Sarith behind, stating that he was enslaved for murder
    • Party briefly tries to determine if this is true as Sarith gets increasingly uncomfortable and eventually says he did no such thing
  • Party comes across patch of waterorbs and ormu, which are harvested
    • Skjorn tries to eat the ormu; it is disgusting

Party sets up camp

  • everyone eats dinner and socializes; Skjorn tries chatting up Sarith
  • Zaz spends the night grooming his wings, taking out his hearing aids to block out the noise

Mylz takes first shift; nothing eventful happens

  • Dibrael takes second shift and tries to interact with Zaz
  • Mylz wakes from a nightmare and Skjorn wakes from the combined commotion
  • Zaz takes third shift; he hasn't slept, but everyone else has nightmares

Party travels for the rest of the week, encountering various obstacles and bonding

  • Junior plays games with various people including Mylz (and Sarith when he thinks no one is looking)
  • Skjorn continues to flirt with Sarith, who is too tired to do anything about it

Party finds a clean lake to bathe in, lit by nightlights, and hop in with varying states of undress

  • Mylz lets off a mysterious glow that attracts Topsy and Zaz
  • Zaz questions Dibrael about his history and makes some uncomfortable comments
    • Jimjar makes a bet with Skjorn (1gp) on how soon the two above will get together
  • Shuushar is missing from the headcount, but is found meditating underwater
  • Buppido asks everyone how they got caught by the drow, but people are reluctant to answer
    • when Sarith is asked, Eldeth is rude again - but Zaz scolds her, making Eldeth go quiet and earning Sarith's respect
