#26 Stupid Boy Culture

August 24, 2022

Location: Getty's Peak

Party walks through a small canyon and are ambushed by a few kobolds on top of the cliffs

Party reaches the entrance of Icefang Fortress and Skjorn casts Light for those without Darkvision

  • everyone spots a trip wire, which is then deactivated by Zaz

Party debates how to get through a narrow passage in the wall

  • Mylz passes around pygmyworts only to find out that they don't work here
  • Dibrael and Skjorn transform into rats and slip through, followed by everyone else squeezing in
    • rat Dibrael sniffs at Shoor, who aims and misses a kick at him

Party enters a large, wrecked room guarded by a stone golem, which attacks them

  • after defeating it, they find gold and horseshoes of a zephyr, which will later be given to Horse
  • Skjorn gives 69 of his looted gold to Shoor with a wink; confused, Shoor accepts it without counting

Party finds a moldy library and Dibrael notices a few books that are in magically pristine condition

  • Party puts the books on a shelf with empty space and it opens a secret room
  • Party takes a few piles of rare books and one spell scroll of cloudkill

Party takes a short rest to dress their wounds

the hallway forward is blocked by barricades and a ballista pointed at Party

  • a single kobold cowers behind the barricades, telling Party to get back or he'll shoot
    • Mylz persuades the kobold to talk, and he admits that he only joined this cult because his own tribe was wiped out
  • Skjorn flirts with him and the kobold says he's DTF - only if Party clears the dungeon and gets out alive
    • Shoor, surprised by the flirting, asks if he does this to everyone
  • the kobold allows Party to climb over the barricade

Party opens an old ale room with a strongly terrible odor

  • Mylz spots a pair of ochre jellies on the ceiling and warns Party; Shoor says "look out, Jorlan"
    • Zaz flicks Shoor who slaps him back, starting a slap fight until Mylz scruffs them both and holds them apart
    • Skjorn says to Shoor, "I saved you from Zaz over there," even though he just stood nearby and didn't do anything
  • Dibrael opens and sniffs one of the kegs, gags, and warns people not to smell it
    • in true Stupid Boy culture, Skjorn smells it anyway

Party moves on to a mess hall with leftovers from the cult's last meal

  • Skjorn picks up a half-eaten piece of raw meat and gives it to Mylz to cook for him later
  • Party finds a potion of supreme healing in a pantry attached to the kitchen

Party squeezes through another narrow passage and enters an armory

  • some of them take upgrades to their weapons; Skjorn exchanges his quarterstaff for an exact copy of the same quarterstaff
  • Ivan grabs more than it seems he can carry, then carries it without trouble (Ront blushes a little)
