Glimmermark session 63: oh boy, they nearly got themselves a TPK. They ventured under the goblin castle again, fought with a few elemental culists, then descended into the grand temple of the elemental princes. The local vicar was a bit of a challenge with flying boots and all that, but they […]

ah yes, Glimmermark session 62 yesterday: they ventured back into level 6 of Castle Dyson, trying to find the connection to the elementalist temple they found before.
That level proved to be a challenge, with them encountering a mimic, two groups of elementalists, a poison gas trap, and an […]

Unfortunately for the bandits the PCs had the better archers, and dominated the battle. The only standout was a […]

Glimmermark Session 58. Only two players today. They decided to forego the underground, and instead decided to check out a ruined city the group had found in the southeast. On the way there they saw a dragon passing over them, and hid in a forest that turned out to be full of red-hatted gnomes […]

Glimmermark session 57: after three weeks of no delves, the troglodytes had brought in outside talent and created multiple traps and ambushes together with some kobold mercenaries. The PCs managed to get around some of them, but got trapped in a room with hungry giant crab spiders, and later […]

Glimmermark session 56: they went down to the troglodyte cave again and tried to defeat the tribe that lived there. In between they met mostly inconsequential random encounters... and a giant leech that just dropped on them.

dang, I misread the monster stats. giant leeches just drain blood, they don't regenerate.
well, they didn't use to, the ones in the Glimmermark now do.

Glimmermark session 54: oh wow, the dice didn't like them today, they didn't even manage to get to the level they wanted to investigate without 4 encounters, then later fought a giant leech ("these things regenerate?") and got waylaid by a giant lizard on the way back. Didn't help that they also […]

oh, I haven't posted about my Glimmermark game two days ago: we had a death of one of the NPC henchmen. They were exploring the caverns under the Keep a bit more, and came across a giant toad that grabbed one of the hobbits with a tongue.

so yesterday we had Glimmermark Session 52, which coincidentally also was the end of year 2 of the campaign.
This means that on average we played every two weeks, which is the most regular game I have ever managed.
There was really not much special that was actually happening in the session […]

Session 44 of #glimmermark, they decided to deal with the necromancers in the caves, unfortunately (fortunately?) they had instigated the doom of those last month, when they opened a bolted door and just left it open without investigating that much further.
