DOWN IN THE ABBEY...
- The party decends to the fourth level of the devil-besotted Abbey without incident and intent on exploring the south-eastern region that had been outlined on their map (PC Edit: Since we have started mapping again, I do think it really helps provide the group with pre-game options (what do you want to do) and in-game focus (which unexplored area does everyone want to investigate?)
- The party returns to a section containing two altars to Queen Moloch a bull-headed god that is often depicted consuming many babies, but also delivering magic to the minds of ancient Acharon. In exploring this alter, the party is split when the door swings shut, cutting the group in half! In side the alter, black smoke arises and the room heats. Outside the altar, vampiric mists glide into the roo,m threatening Thekla, Blossom, and the hirelings.
- Fortunately, a fireball and a few swings of a magic sword are able to dispatch the vampiric mists; use of knock quickly opens the door, causing the smoke to mysteriously cease before choking the party.
- Felix the Dwarf, whose armor is now festooned in Abbey iconography, decides to make a blood offering to the altar and receives a terrible vision of sacrifice by gold-skinned humans to a bull-headed god. The party puzzles for a moment about how this demon might be related to the Abby. One theory is that the humanoid flys that vomit gold might be twisted versions of the gold-skinned humans.
- Finding no riches at the altar, the party turns north to a collapsed section of hallway. It looks like it leads to a disturbed tomb sans actual sarcophagus- however, the "grave goods" are still there! The party grabs the piles of coin, clothing, odd flail, ring, and vial and escapes!
...BACK AT THE MEDUSA'S HEAD
The party is excited to see that in addition to ~6000sp worth of coins and bejeweled goods they have also gained a ring of lesser genie summoning, a magic flail VampireFucker, and a potion of longevity.
Now we just need to go find more vampires!
