EVENT light: (Marcus buys some leather goods from Volhoric.)

SCENE (dark): How did the characters help in the defense? **

Raz, Volhoric, Shyrrik, Dax, Drugan, Marcus


Shyrrik has family there.  Family killed, solidifies giants as bad guys.  Hill giants kill the family with boulders.  Mist to help others. ** Tried to rescue Shyrrik's family but fail.  Do manage to take a few hill giants down before having to retreat.  Manage to save other families, enough so Longsaddle can rebuild. Valhoric gives Shyrrik a locket that belonged to his Mother found after the battle.

SCENE (light): How did Raz defeat the orcish tribal leader Luc? **

Raz, Dax, Volhoric, Marcus, Drugan, Shyrrik ** Raz managed the killing blow but all were present to help in the fight against the tribe.

Raz takes a pendant from Luc and keeps it.

On returning through Nesme we find that the tavern had burnt.

SCENE (light): Was the defense of the farms successful? **

 

Marcus, Volhoric, Drugan, Raz, Shyrrik, Dax


Several jump out into combat.  When Shyrrik sees how many there are, he tells them it's a lot.  Eventually.  Drugan calls down fire and starts several on fire.  More fighting but they are slowly pushed back.  Wand of fireball takes out a lot.  Eventually kill the rest. ** Yes and without loss of barn, even with the fire being thrown around.

 SCENE (dark): Who started the fire? **

 

The group was all present, helping to rebuild, but pushed by Shyrrik **

 

Shyrrik brings the group together to investigate but there was some force behind it.

 

SCENE (dark): What was the outcome of the battle Raz saw? ** Raz, Marcus, Luk an orc, Ferindyl the elf leader,


Outskirts of Lurkwood, orcs invading, elves defending it,


Raz joins the fight, Marcus is already in it casting spells.  Luk and Ferindyl eventually meet on the battlefield and fight.  Raz enjoys killing the orcs and cuts through them.  Luk feints again and catches Ferindyl with a blow.  Raz comes to help. ** In the end, it's not clear who won.  Forces had manipulated behind the scenes and both sides suffer heavy losses.

       

 

 

 

GM Notes

  • I think this went well.  Rather than have people somewhat stumbling to make connections, we jump into Microscope and have them make connections this way. 
  • If anything was bad, it's that it takes about an hour or so to "get" it and we were on the edge of having too many people.  Or maybe over that edge. 
  • I do think this gave us some good background ideas to start with and go from there.
