Conscripted Episode 5

The party arrives / starts the session at the military camp where they reconnect with Tin-nelly – jack notifies him that we have lost two

of our party members and lets him know what we were up to during our vacation. Tin-Nelly lets the party know there is a group that came back that had a case of mummy rot and one strong lad had survived and will hopefully pull through, because if he does, he will need a group to join. On the same vein of things, we are notified of another survivor from a group who perished from an adamantium golem. Coincidentally, she is another hobgoblin that really reminds Arius of Shaaxsaga, her name is Spinsaura, another spell caster.

The party decides to wait for the mummy rot victim to see if he makes it before we leave camp again for another mission. Arius decides to initiate his plan to release the dogs while Jack decides to do some thievery from the camp’s weapon cache. After some close calls and run ins with some guards, Jack is successful in his theft of some stronger bows. Luckily Spinsura was investigating some spirts the same night and created some distractions to the guards for Jack as well. Arius is also successful in releasing the hounds with some help from Delranmrion after Arius burnt an effigy in his name to honour Drustan and create a distraction.

The group signs up for a smaller mission to kill some time before the next big outing. They are given the task to collect taxes from Khazarem – a town usually under the protection of Arius trial run group – The Pretty Boys, as they are currently indisposed. The party makes their way to Khazaram and does some tavern recon before meeting with the leader Runa – a dwarf. The party does some bonding over some drinks and beds down for the night.

The group has some time to kill before the taxes are due so they decide to pick up some small jobs in town to earn some extra wealth. They decide to answer the notice of a captured warehouse by some krenshaws. The party makes some easy work of the three beasts in the warehouse and Jack is able to channel his inner thief and is able to steal a chunk of mithril without our employer’s notice.
