Session 3 - Saint Melek Monastery

Last session

So the heroes thought about what to do. Go to the city? Check out the region? or..

The Characters:
Miss Penchu, the human magic user, played by Till
Mei, the Woodelf Fighter, played by Julia
Drago, the lizardman fighter, played by Ceco
Eine Frau, the Tiefling Specialist, played by Alina

Eine Frau was very surprised to see Mei missing an arm. After a week of work in the tuning fork she went down the road to the south and heard about some dudes throwing a giant party in the beerbucket. Being poor and an opportunist, she naturally checked it out. There she found the lady wizard Miss Penchu, the lizardman warrior Drago and the one-armed elven axemurderer Mei.

Hey why not use this moment to describe them a bit?

Eine Frau is a 20-30 years old chaos tiefling, who looks almost human. She has two little horns on her forehead. she was married to an astrowizard and saw him die while he looked through a telescope. She's interested to find out what the fuck's going on with that damned star.

Drago, well I actually don't know much about him. He made a really nice knife handle out of Meis bone and gave it to her as a gift. He likes to fight and probably is an absolute psychopath. He seems interested in the crusaders of the Sungod.

Mei, well Mei. She started as a typical lotr elf from the woods, but she evolved beyond that. She wants to see the world end. She seems like a fun person, ignoring her evil tendencies.

Miss Penchu is a stout human. She has one single huge tit, idk what happened to the other one. She's self concious about it and hides her spellbook where the other one should be. It's pretty convincingly padded. She is moody, quick to anger and somewhat smug.

After Eine Frau found back to the group and has been updated regarding what happened they started thinking about what to do next. Eine Frau heard about this abandoned monastery and really wanted to go. So they started gathering infomation. They learned that the river is terribly polluted and most of the brewers there think that it has something to do with that cursed monastery. The village Emen has a lot of brewers and distillers, with the beerbucket being a local meeting spot for everyone to show off their newest creations. The party learned that the monastery was called the saint melek monastery and was renowned for their legendary brewing, so naturally some of the brewers would pay a hefty sum for the recipe. They also found out that if they follow the west road, they'll find a horrible war theater, where some crusaders of the sungod reside. The crusaders are putting the dead to rest. They didn't find out why the monastery was cursed and they thought about maybe going to the crusaders to talk to them, because they're hella afraid of undead, lol.

The party found one brewer and asked them what he'd pay for the recipe of the saint melek monastery. He said 1500 cash money. They said whaaat, give us more. He said 2000, nothing more. They started an auction in the beerbucket. God damn. The brewer raised it to 3000 but somehow the adventuring party rised it even higher to 4000? I don't even know anymore, they are greedy assholes. But whatever, they still have to find the recipe first, that's why I'm not worried lol.

With this fat sack of cash before their noses, they started heading north, following the river. They indeed saw that the river was filled with garbage, shit and other stuff. Huh. They didn't take the time to scout the region, my cute little noobs, and went for the entry. Eine Frau lit her lamp and interestingly they even started mapping the dungeon, which was done by Miss Penchu. In the first room they saw this spooky blue ghost again, that vanished through the north wall. Fuck I'm way to lazy to discribe the rooms with height and width, I'll just post the map and give you guys a quick run down what happened, okay?


I'm not sure where this map is from, I found it on the internet and thought, yeah alright this will do for a cute little dungeon. There are no stairs leading down except for the big one in M9, which is locked though. In the basement is a shitload of beer and the corpse of an Elf.

Alright. They went into M2, chilled a bit, looked through the windows into M8 but didn't see anything interesting, went trough the door west, advanced a little bit and bumped into five goblins.

I don't know why, but Mei holds a raging hatred against goblins. They ran back to M2 to have some open space and the goblins followed. They quickly slaughtered two of them and captured one while the rest tried to flee.
Mei speaks goblin so they interrogated him. Apparently these goblin fucks live here because people usually stay away because of the ghosts. He called Miss Penchu fat and ugly and tried to convince them to keep him as a guide, but Eine Frau really felt like killing people, so she murdered the goblin and was satisfied. They went from M2 to M5, found some beds and three ghouls. They started a fight, Eine Fraus leg and Dragos arm got terribly fucked up but they won this skirmish. Eine Frau wanted to press on, Drago not so much. They decided to check out room M4, which was a bedroom without ghouls and room M3, where they found five relatively fresh human corpses. The corpses had died because of bloodloss, they had ripped eardrums through wich they lost a hell of a lot of blood. How could this even happen? No matter, they then left the dungeon and relaxed back in Emen for a week, regenerating their crippled bodyparts.

In that week, they started looking for some retainers. Miss Penchu recruited Hansi, a chubby and rather dim-witted dude and Drago recruited Hubert, a short, dark haired human with a really big larynx.
This time they decided to check out those crusaders first, before going into the dungeon. They really wanted to know what to do against fucking undead. But first they visited the priest of Emen, in hope of gaining some knowledge.
The sunpriest warris is a very sick old man, lying in his bed. They learned from him that undead are weak against holy water. He sold them two bottles. They also found out that no human ghost usually destroys the eardrum, the priest told them that the monastery was involved against a holy war against elves and that evil elven spirits, called banshees could kill with a single sound. Warris told them that they were fucked if that was the case. He also told them that there surely has happened something gruesome, he couldn't comprehend otherwise why his god would allow such a strong curse in one of his places of worship. Furthermore he told them that he suspects the Abbot of that monastery did something weird, Warris never liked his face.

With this knowledge the party started following the street to the west, where they found an abandoned village by the road, filled with ghouls, a doppelgänger that posed as Miss Penchu and finally the war theater.

What, you want to hear about the ghouls and doppelgänger? Eh alright.
The road to the village was fenced off, a sign told the group that the village is plundered and emty, there are only ghouls there. They didn't want to deal with it, so they took the detour around it.

Six miles later, they found another Miss Penchu in their group. The trick was that Till was playing the doppelgänger and I controlled the real Miss Penchu. They understood that rather quickly, murdered almost the real one, decided to take both with them for some time but Eine Frau was overtaken by her bloodlust again and correctly killed the doppelgänger. Alina, who plays Eine Frau was a bit bummed out after choosing correctly though.

And then they found the war theater. They found a small improv church made of wood and some dudes working. They spoke with one who was called Wolfgang and asked him how to deal with undead. He didn't tell them much useful stuff, like, smash their heads, burn them, cut them to pieces, etc. But he told him that clerics could turn the undead, which got them interested. Wolfgang brought them to his boss, a Heisenberg-looking motherfucker in a garb. He told them that they discovered a dungeon while they unearthed some stone for tombstones. They found out that the dungeon is the tomb of some saint of a heathen wargod, which apperently awoke as an undead because of the devastating wars above his tomb. The cleric told them that he suspects that he's one of the reason why the undead are so agiated in this region. Furthermore he told them that he apparently enslaved some troglodytes who guard his tomb now. The clerics don't have the resources to deal with troglodytes and he told them that he'll give them two clerics as retainers for the saint melek monastery if they put the undead in the tomb to rest. The group bought two flasks of holy water from him and Wolfgang the human cleric joined them as a retainer for the tomb of the heathen saint.

That's it. Let's see what happens next friday at the
TOMB OF THE BLUE BARON
yes I called the dungeon that, don't make fun of me.

Next session
