Dear Players,
A brand new Gnomish Sorcerer, no family relation to Niskala, has joined the team.
To explain the departure of Elric, Hexagalamere and Variel, I cooked up a difference in strategy, with those staying in deciding to make a push for the upper levels of the keep while the PCs getting retired chose to wait for the Ogres to fight among themselves, after arguing that the Lamia Matriarch was very likely charming the Ogres every day using her racial powers. Therefore they went back to civilisation.
Nagri got a bit too curious and foolish, believing that with the Grauls dead he could go and look at the dam for himself. He had heard rumours of Demonic or Devilish engined powering the sluice gates there. Bad luck he got beaten up and captured by Ogres and sent into a cell, where he was found by the party.
A bit cliché but an easy introduction.
The fights tonight were a bit on the easy side as my rolls were abysmal at first and the delay between fights were luckily quite substantial. I might add a bit more HP to my monsters to accommodate a party of five, just so that a monster of equal CR to that of the party can last at least two rounds of heroes ganging up on them.
I enjoyed playing with the Ogre Sorcerer 9 though, Sorcerers are cool evil NPC, they have a lot of high level slots!
My melee Ogres were pretty lame though with bad rolls all over.
