Through Ultan's Door

Session 7: brief recap and the take The PCs struck out in many new directions. Attempting to reach the white jungle, they explored the chasm where the party long ago parlayed with the guildless. The guildless appear to have withdrawn and cut the bridge. The party discovered a new are for exploration to the south. Descending into the chasm through a narrow portion, they found that it went down about 200' before they reached a sloping earthen floor. This emptied ultimately into a large circular hole. Probing revealed that the hole contained a large black web-like structure, composed of thick, shiny black filaments. They melted when they came into contact with fire, but when jostled sent out purple pulses. While the party was clearing a hole for passage, a bulbous entity climbed onto the far side of the web. Playing the web like an instrument, it called forth shadow beings that pursued the PCs. Although of insubstantial substance, they came in large numbers and their weapons cut like ...

This blog post contains some of the information you extracted from your interviews with Ulantanu. It contains a bit more, which has come out in further conversations. I will put up a blog post soon with information about the guilds and drop it here when I do.

Travis Miller The partial rubbings from the columns grip your interest. You make a copy of them before selling them to Adriana. In conjunction with the spells you transcribed in your spell book from the scrolls in the sarcophagus, you begin to understand the principles that underlie the alien and eldritch science of vivimancy. The arcane secrets of life unfold before you, giving you a glimpse of unimaginable mutations and hidden connections. You may now become a vivimancer if you like. If so, you may retain all the magic-user spells you already know. But from this point you may only learn vivimancer spells. I have attached a link to the PDF containing a treatment of the class below. If you choose to make this switch, for next session you will be able to cast the following spell that you have transcribed in your spell book: Muscle Control Duration: 1d4 rounds, +1 round per level Range: 60' This spell allows the caster to attempt to control the muscles of creatures within range, caus...

Campaign news for 2/26  The driving rains have finally come to an end, as the Chatelaine has emerged, pale and sullen from her mourning. There is a whispered rumor that she may finally take up with her apprentice Almuric, from whom she has been aloof despite his rather obvious charms. Speaking of Almuric, two gangsters disguised as footman were found with crushed torsos and partially devoured innards in the tunnels leading to the area formerly housing his managerie, where it is his magical apparatuses are rumored to be kept as well. What fearsome beast might have accomplished this defensive act is a matter of speculation. The Council of Carvers has entered a cold war with The Guild of Hewers following their failure to renew the contract on shining timber. Rumors suggest that the Hewers have been emboldened by the discovering of a new entrance to underwater chambers beneath the ancient refinery on the shore of lake wooling. (What they may have found, no one outside the guild knows.) The...

Where to in Session 7?  I've become paranoid about having conversations on events, every since my phone forced me to "upgrade", and made it all but impossible to get to events, except from my desktop. So I've pasted the conversation as it has unfolded thus far here. I'm tagging in people who have said yes or maybe so far, or otherwise participated in the conversation. Eric Boyd Aleksandr Revzin Michael Raston Chris Kutalik Tim Other Zak Sabbath  Me: I'll definitely need to know where people want to go for the next session. At this point there are at least 3 options: (1) catacombs of the fleischguild (2) the white jungle below (3) Zyan above Tim Other  Xol would like to hire people to track down the thugs that beat him up outside the opium den.  After that, the white jungle below sounds interesting.  I think we may be pressing our luck by continuing to raid the fleischguild.   Me: If you do go the white jungle route, Ulantanu informed you that he knew of two ...
