A big thank you again to Misha Polonsky for running our first Dungeon World on hangouts. Great fun was had by all. Feel free to chip in with your favourite bits but to my mind it was the growing danger with every step and insane combat moves that made it so fun!
Scarr the very ugly fighter with an equally ugly weapon
Herran the newly enlightened Druid
Avon the beautifully groomed and anti-aging obsessed Wizard
After securing the mission from the Thieves guild to retrieve the wayward rogue Bort the Nimble from the sunken fortress seen on the horizon from Craggport docks. We went about convincing some down on their luck “merchants” to sail us to the Jagged Rocks as the locals call them. This was possibly the last true success the party had from there on it was a downward spiral!
Narrowly escaping the Kraken guarding one side of the giant spire jutting out of the water, we drew the attention of an Eagle Lord who entered into combat with Herran in Eagle form. After some nifty magic missile and a projectile barrel or two the Eagle was downed on the deck where Herran ‘Bear bombed’ the ailing Eagle to death.
Landing on the shores we were set upon by a hoard of Imps forcing us into the huge cave and alerting Mrs Eagle Lord to our presence. Scooped up by the Eagle Scarr proceeded to try and throttle the Eagle in flight snapping it’s neck they crash landed down into the crater inside the cave. More flapping and snapping came from the Eagle but Scarr finally dismissed the Eagle with an alligator wrestling neck twist.
Then the trouble really began….
And a big thanks to Eadwin Tomlinson Isa Wills Penda Tomlinson for all the immense fun in our Dungeon World Hangout game last night!!!
Herran’s ‘Bear Bomb’ was brilliant! Scarr wrestling the Eagle Lord was fantastic! And who could forget what happened after Avon disrupted the fabric of reality by casting magic missile. It probably wasn’t Avon who summoned the chimera, but a giant chimera going after a horde of imps, with the PCs stuck in the middle of a crossfire, definitely provided more and more trouble.
Through the giant, open doorway of a mausoleum-like structure that was at least four times as big on the inside and littered with gold and giant-sized treasure chests, the PCs managed to find Bort the Nimble’s body at the edge of a giant pool with stone steps leading down to an immense corridor large enough for a giant to pass through. Bort carried a map of the abandoned fortress at Jagged Rock and realized they have to continue to venture down through the fortress, underneath the sea – which means plenty of underwater and giant-sized trouble ahead!
At least the PCs are camping out in a giant’s treasure chest. Hopefully that chimera in the next room won’t come in and attempt to sniff them out! 🙂
Can you remember the name of the Captain of the Silverfish?
I believe he was Captain Burma.
