Great report.

Thank you

Thanks, SerialMOM

     This past Saturday we played the 6th game in our campaign, and took a break from the Lich Lord scenario book, to returned once more to The Library from the Core rulebook.  We did, however incorporate elements from the Battle on the River scenario to help tie it into the Lich Lord story line.  

http://onemoregamingproject.blogspot.com/2017/06/frostgrave-campaign-17-game-6-library.html

"...The rock flew with magical precision down the hall, through a hole in the half collapsed door, and struck with a sharp report against the wall by Bailey's head. The young woman cried out in pain and surprise as there was a blinding flash and loud concussive explosion. Shattered stone splinters cut deep gashes in her face, and the force of the blast made her stagger backwards. (Bailey's HP reduced to 1) Almost falling, Quail's Apprentice fought to stay conscious and standing.  Her insides felt like she had been kicked all over her body by a hundred angry mules.  Bailey's nose bled and her ears rang, as she stumbled back to the shelter of the nearby bookcase.  She went down hard on her knees, and slumping up against the nearby wall tried to think clearly and recall the simple words of a Heal spell.  Blood was running down her face from the several deep cuts, and dripped from her nose and chin on to the fresh white snow on the floor around her. As the young woman tried to form the words of the spell carefully one by one,  a quiet alarm went off in her head..."

It's a special treat in life to see 12 feet of Dwarven Forge all laid out on a table...

   We had our July game this past weekend, only two weeks after the June one!  We did the House of Longreach scenario from The Thaw of the Lich Lord supplement. It was a lot of crazy fun with folks popping out of portals all over the place.
 
Quail's report has been posted.
 
http://onemoregamingproject.blogspot.com/2017/07/frostgrave-campaign-17-game-7-district.html
 
     "...The sight of one of the other Sigilist's soldiers brought up a well of anger as Quail's Apprentice flashbacked to the moments of fear and pain in the library.  Quail saw the sudden appearance of the Dwarf as well,  and quickly looked over to her Apprentice to see if she had noticed.  The wizard could see Bailey staring at the tower, and without looking, the young woman reached a hand under her robes to draw her sword.  The Sigilist called to her Apprentice, "Bailey, don't!", but got no answer, or even acknowledgement.   The Maga Librarian realized she couldn't reach the girl in time to stop her, and quickly decided on trying to at least try and help her. So Quail splayed the fingers of her right hand towards the Dwarf, and recited the words of Blinding Light..."

Great stuff! Our games parallel each other once again, as we also failed to get the treasure from the secret room.

Thanks, JP!   I just went and read your report. (Sorry I had missed it earlier)  I'm glad to hear it wasn't just us who had a hard time getting anything out of the treasure room.  And sorry to hear about the poor dice-rolling.  I've been there and done that. :)

Thank you, SerialMoM!  I'm so glad to hear you are enjoying the story, and the Bailey character.  It will be interesting to see if she can rise above her condition, or if the sheltered quiet librarian assistant will be undone by the violence and trauma she's suddenly had to deal with. It's really interesting to see where the games take the characters.  I'm just as eager to find out what happens next. :)

Hello,

Here is my write up of the 7th Game of the 2d Campaign.  I am somewhat remiss in posting so late.

Thanks in advance for reading.

Quails report from game 8, "Lair of the Ghoul King & Queen" has been posted: https://onemoregamingproject.blogspot.com/2017/08/frostgrave-campaign-17-game-8-lair-of.html

Enjoy!

"...Take this," Quail said to her Apprentice.   Without a word, frowning, Bailisette reached out her hand and snatched the vial. The Apprentice's arm then froze for a moment in mid movement, and the young woman slowly raised the hand grasping the vial to her face, and unflexed her fingers.  Bailey stared at the clear red liquid frothing in its glass container as it rested on her palm, her eyes fixed upon it.  Quail thought for just a second she saw Bailey's eyes glint the same red as the liquid; then, before the Sigilist could consider this strange sight, as quickly as the Apprentice had snatched the vial, the young woman closed her hand around the smooth glass and shoved the vial deep into one of her pockets... a slight unseen smile coming over the Apprentice's scarred face..."
