Either way, that's it for tonight! What a wild session! I'm a little disappointed Malcolm didn't get to do more murder during his debut as a sword and bard, but there's always next time!

And interestingly enough, that Van Richten was traveling with a cousin of Malcolm's...

Seeing as he's back in the homeland, Malcolm might actually take a lil work trip and see if he can't turn up anything about his family, since I'm not sure if he's actually been back since the last campaign.

The town is called Kinderhook. This was where the OG crew killed the Headless Horseman years back (when our old ranger Leiha got her head cut off and, after her resurrection, gifted it to Malcolm to use as a fleshlight) and then where Kalare, our wizard, was hunted by a Van Richten.

Malcolm has never been here but apparently the last three I mentioned are catching up with the now-owner of the local inn, the son of the old owner (who is now middle aged due to our timeskip in the last campaign). We get rooms on the house and it's time to celebrate!

Mists flood the chamber, and when it fades, we find ourselves in a town square, with jackolanterns everywhere. Yassmin, Jin, and Baerkhad recognize it instantly as a town they've been to previously (in past Halloween sessions). The 3 missing folks are all here, and it looks like we've won!

Haste actions from Yassmin and with her savage attacks and sneak attacks, this dude is TOAST!
November 3, 2025 at 5:08 AM
Zavuu successfully whips the Bagman in the gash left behind by the axe and manages to do damage and knock him prone! All follow up attacks are sadly misses. Baerkhad is laying in with eldrich blasts and Yassmin is stabbing for dear life.

Sorry, Mantle of Inspiration. I know this dude doesn't flinch to charming so no use in trying to command him.
November 3, 2025 at 5:02 AM
Bagman didn't like that and PWK'd Brundahr. Thankfully he has over 100 HP but that fuckin' hurt bad.

Malcolm's up, and uses a 7th level Mass Cure Wounds to patch up Brundahr and Yassmin and his Mantle of Majesty to move folks closer.
November 3, 2025 at 5:00 AM
Tuzon drags Brundahr into Bagman's range, and Brundahr is NOT fucking around. One slash has gotten through and connected though, and hopefully that will be enough to break his resistance!
November 3, 2025 at 4:48 AM
Bagman is baghopping again, this time he's come after Jin. Jin deflected his attack with some monk shenanigans and then avoids managed getting yeeted into the wall.

We're debating pulling a LotR and tossing Brundahr at the Bagman at this point.

In the first incarnation of this campaign, everyone used to rag on Malcolm for being a coward. That said, this goes beyond anything Malcolm has ever done in terms of running. I actually applauded the player, this made me laugh HARD.
November 3, 2025 at 4:36 AM
The Bagman has whooped the living hell out of Evrick, launching him across the room. He's got like 12 HP left. A few folks came over to try to save him, and he... fucking Planeshifted all the way back to his room in the Guildhall LMAO
November 3, 2025 at 4:35 AM
Baerkhad counterspells, Bagman fails, Bagman uses Legendary Resistance to succeed, Yassmin takes 94 HP. WOOF!
