Here we go again.
Alina had no time that day, so I decided that her character Eine Frau stayed at the tuning fork and helped out. She was a bit too freaked out after getting abducted, so she needed to chill for some time.
The Characters:
Nagga, the Kroakling Specialist, played by Till
Mei, the Woodelf Fighter, played by Julia
Gekko, the Lizardman Magic User played by Ceco
A day passed, and the adventurers relaxed in the tavern, drinking beer, eating food and getting strange looks because of their two robed bodyguards. Chelestra gifted them some robes to hide their Orc friends.
remember they got some after slaughtering some poor dudes? Right.
The lazy witch was very interested in these two. She knew about the fountain but didn't knew that sacrificing some poor fucks would result in free slaves. So she hatched a plan.
On this morning, Gekko spotted a crow behind the window. He naturally let it in, being curious about the animal. It went inside and sat in front of Gekko.
Five seams in the flesh of the animals head opened up and rolled back like a banana peel. In it were red and blue slithering but thin tentacles that started to curl together to form the flesh of a human hand, which quickly grew skin. The hand grabbed inside the crow and pulled out a letter. Gekko took the letter and the crow immediately keeled over and started to twitch, convulse and bleeding out. He opened the letter and found a piece of paper that started speaking in the voice of Chelestra. She told the adventurers that 12 miles west from her house were living some freaks who surely nobody will miss. She would give them 200 cash money for every freak they'll bring her and even teach Gekko some black magic shit. They were so freaking distracted by the hand-crow-abomination that they didn't pay any attention to the details. They only knew that they had to bring some people to Chelestra, so they started moving. Somehow they thought they had to move northwest, found Chelestras old home and were really ashamed to be that helplessly lost. They debated visiting Chelestra but didn't want to look incompetent. They bumbled around in that forest, started camp and decided to visit Chelestra again, the next day.
I rolled a random encounter. Five Zombies. Shouldn't be bad, right?
Well. They ran to the zombies, let them circle them and got fucking slaughtered.
Nagga, Gekko, Gekkos orc and Meis orc died. Through luck, Mei made it, killed the last couple of zombies, lost an arm and stopped the bleeding. She crawled in her tent and slept until the next day.
At the same time:
Miss Penchu the human ladywizard and Drago the lizardman warrior were on the way to their fountain. Miss Penchus stupid brother Dickerle went without them, that bastard, who knows what problems he got his ass into. Whatever, serves him right.
The curtain lifts for:
Miss Penchu, the human magic user, played by Till
Drago, the lizardman fighter, played by Ceco
Right, so these two new murderhobos found a fucking massacre. In the middle of it sits a tend with an elf. She's missing her arm, but she seems fine. Mei tells them that she knows a witch which will buy captured dudes, 200 cash money each. They talk for a short time and everyone's on the same page:
1. money
2. no morals, ever
Penchu is a nagging bitch, so Drago slaps her once and they walk south to the river. They follow the river north west and finally find the teapot of Chelestra. Mei is fucking hella relieved and starts sprinting to the building and starts hammering at the door. Chelestra opens it and Mei says:
Chelestra, I found two sacrifices for you!
...
Julia, what the fuck. I laughed for a minute.
I considered it, but Chelestra didn't feel like fighting. She's a coward. She let Mei inside and discussed the situation with her. She wants some immobile people with which she could deal more easily, like the letter said, there lived some freaks west in the hills that lead up to the mountain.
Chelestra let the other two inside and really defused the situation. Drago considered murdering them all, but he let that one slide.
Till has been zealously cartographing after their characters have been lost for a while, so his character Miss Penchu had took the map from Naggas body and noted where these freaks should live.
Hold up, I remembered how Dickerles name, I called him Thomas. Thomas the wizard, the brother of Miss Panchu.
That was random.
Nonetheless, they started traveling and went west for 12 miles. They found the hills and spotted two small buildings. After some observing they indeed seen some harlequin-baby looking freaks. They waited some time and spotted 3-4 different people. Some time later they decided to just go there, tell them that they're lost wanderers and would welcome some help. They went to the house, the harlequin-baby looking girl bolted inside and some ugly looking dude with vertically aligned eyes started talking to them. He was the Head of this family that got cursed by an evil witch because he didn't let her eat their apples. The group freaked him out, so he decided to close the door. Somehow they convinced him that they just want to stay the night and will be on their way in the morning. They gave him their weapons, he led them to a room and that's that. The adventurers started to discuss if they really should do that shit. Mei had doubts about Chelestra because she apparently doesn't want to deal with evil witch shit, and Miss Penchu surprised me, because she took pity in the cursed family. They only wanted to be together until cataclysm. They decided to abduct them in the night. Money's more important it seems.
At night they started moving. They went into the living room, without weapons and wanted to go to the bedroom of the dad and mom. These people aren't idiots though, so they rigged the doors with falling pots, which made hell of a noise. The Mom went to the door, equipped with Meis now signature weapon. (Mei has been using the bow at first, which isn't possible anymore with only one arm.) The mom got a lucky hit against Mei and fucking destroyed her leg with the axe, but got a hell of a shield bash from Drago to the face. Dad tried to intervene, but they took his wife captive. With this encounter done, they captured the rest and got their weapons back.

They waited for the day and traveled back to the witch, which took a while because Meis leg was fucked up. Chelestra was happy to see them. They brought her five freaks, of which she sacrificed four at the fountain and put one in her magic cauldron, with which she can create any food she wants out of people. The party was delighted.
I mean, yes, really delighted, that wasn't sarcasm, those sick fucks. The witch brought a pig to the party and hit it softly with a small, golden hammer. The pig exploded into gore and on the floor were laying 1000 silver, which the party took happily. They stayed there for a week, in which they sacrificed the dudes, ate, talked, relaxed and learned some spells. Miss Penchu learned sleep, that weird-ass animal messanger spell and the turn-normal-looking-dudes-into-ugly-looking-dudes spell. After the week they followed the river down to the village. On their way they found an abandoned monastery, they peeked inside, saw a ghost and fucking bolted outside.
After a while they reached the Town Emen, went to the Beerbucket, a nice little tavern and blew a shitload of cash on a huge party, for some XP.
I would have liked to write down the next session today, too, but nah, lol. Maybe tomorrow. Friday's next session, there will be some dungeon crawling and hopefully some character deaths.
