Into the Gray

Session Summary

We split up to explore the dungeon. I go alone into the foliage room, while the others wait outside. Wash kicks the door shut and startles us, while Star searches for valuable items. I find the bushes produce sticky resin, and the drawers are inaccessible due to the overgrowth. Star finds papers about escaped animals, and we all regroup at 6:45pm. After dinner, we take a long rest at 7:30pm, and nothing happens during our watch shifts. The next morning, I ask Wash about the final monster, and we find it down a floor and further on the left side, initiating combat with SLOW.

Log

Still in the New Dawn Warehouse

I go to poke my nose into the foliage room to see if there are any creatures. I don’t see anything. I call out that I’ll go inside. Twinkletoes suggests a rope. I tie one end to my waist and go in. 

I disappear into the foliage. 

Wash kicks the door shut to see my reaction. “Wha- why?”

“We’ve got a dead person out here!”

“She’s recovering!”

Wash goes to stash heavy equipment so he can carry Elzara. 

Star looks through the cages for valuable items. 

As I dig through the bushes, they are producing some sort of annoying resin that is sticky. As I look through drawers with plant life growing out of some of them, it’s all inaccessible because of the bushes. #clues

Nothing really attacks me and there do not appear to be any creatures.

Star finds nothing. There are some papers describing escaped animals that broke a window.

I make out at least three different feelings from the leaves on the bushes ranging from smooth and hairy. The hairy ones stick on me where the resin was on my skin. 

I get through just fine, it takes about 40 minutes.

We all meet back together around 6:45pm. Star brings back the papers about the escaped animals. It is dated early in the year 5322. (We are in 5372). 

We eat dinner and go to bed early.

In the hallway to the left of the map, there is another hallway that goes up towards more rooms with stairways going down. The other way has stairs going back up. Basically everywhere has this setup more or less. 

It is 7:30pm when we take our Long Rest. 

CON saves: Wash 14, Me 16, Arachne 11, Elzara 25, Twinkletoes 6, Star 12, Elzira 4. Twinkletoes and Elzira take 1 damage.

I take the first watch, Star takes the second watch. Nothing happens during either shift.

I do some minimal food prep for everyone. I eat my storage of special Rations. This grants +2 HP and +1 to hit (4 hours).

This is the first morning that even after waking up and feeling well rested, we’re beginning to feel the air is getting us down. 

I ask Wash about the monster and get excited to go find it. He pings and it is down a floor and further on the left side.

I start running and as soon as I get to the corner where I think it is, peek around, see it and cast Slow. SLOW 1

Star casts Faerie Fire but it fails, so tries Hex. HEX 1

Initiative: Elzira 9, Arachne 20, Me 21, Wash 18, Elzara 21, Star 17, Twinkletoes 8.

Arachne casts Beacon of Hope. BEACON OF HOPE 1
