| Entering slowly, we came face to face with a towering Devourer of Souls! Leaping into action first Xav, then Ignus were entranced by the fiend, and both were almost consumed entirely. Through a concerted effort, and by Avandra's light, did the creature succomb to our onslaught, but vanished mysteriously, as if banished. It is my suspicion that he will return to the same place, until a proper exorcism is performed. Curiously, we also stumbled on another unlucky dwarven adventurer, and this seemed to fluster the Irregulars on reporting back. We were asked to forget about our discovery, and the map about a ring, further down in the Pit. Curious. | Entering slowly, we came face to face with a towering Devourer of Souls!

| + | |||
| + | Moments after making our report on the Pit, I was sequestered to travel to Lodren's Gate in an effort to assist another group of Irregulars. It seems that they encountered strong opposition and that their Leader, a Drow Ardent, was slain in the encounter. It was a confusing start in taking up the mantle of leader, as we were looking for clues regarding a 'Mysterious A'... returning to the site of their deadly encounter, I managed to snag a torn and burnt letter from the debris- there was obviously some kind of explosion. Our shifter Druid detected the wheel markings of a wagon coach, and we followed it back to the Rowdy Dolphin inn, which my compatriots identified as a den of inequity (and lycanthropy). | ||
| + | |||
| + | Arriving through a back door entrance, we scouted the area, when suddenly our trusty guide fell through the stable roof, and onto a beholder! Chaos erupted, as his eyes shot deadly multihued rays of magic at our party. Sadly, our scout turned mad and attacked the Warlock before she succumbed to a ray of death. Our fierce warforged managed to hold the inn's doors shut, keeping hordes of henchmen at bay, but their leader, some vile undead apparition, teleported herself into the fray. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We were ready to run, when the Goliath (who savagely attacked me more than once due to the beholder's influence), raged himself into a frenzy and would not retreat. We managed to defeat the beast, and interrogate one of the surviving henchmen, which lead us to the home of a prominent society member of Lodren's Gate. | ||
| + | |||
| + | And by home, I mean fortress. From here he dispatched messangers to the undead horde to coordinate attacks on the town. We decided that he had to be stopped at all costs. Apprehending a messanger, our wizard enchanted him to become friendly with us, and follow us to a more secluded setting, where we beat the password out of him. Confident with our newfound knowledge, we sauntered up to the gate, where the wizard once more impressed with his guile, as he took on the form of the gate keeper once we were inside. This confounded the simple minded barbaric guards, and lulled them into complacency. It was to our great fortune, as it gave us some time to position ourselves and strike! | ||

| + | Joining the fray were a horrendous multitude of beasts set free from their pits, a mind flayer and the homeowner. He turned out to be quite a character, and when we attacked him, transformed into an amorphous horror. Ideally we would've loved to question him further, but our Goliath's magnificent plunge from the walls, great sword first, brought that option to a close. | ||
