Default Re: Tell us how your Campaigns are going, also get and give advice

My campaign is running into the old issue of most of the players being one evening players and never showing up again.

Still the Kenku Monk wanted to become a Cleric so I pretty much ran this night as his initiation.

Because he tried to free the souls of those whose bodies had been made into animated dolls. A goddess of healing, whose symbol is a blue infinity symbol ♾️, sent the Kenku a dream. In the dream a woman showed the Kenku a statue with a medallion hanging from a chain wrapped around the statue's hand.

When the Kenku woke up he found himself wandering the streets of a ruined city.

Typical of this dead land so far the city was a twisted mixture of decay and perfect preservation. The facades of buildings were in perfect shape. But the buildings that once stood behind them were long gone. Looking in the window of a more intact than average building the Kenku saw the statue from his dream in an area labeled Gift Shop.

The Kenku broke into the building, discovering that it was something like a sideshow. Jars with Jenny Haveners ( different animal parts sewn together and presented as an exotic animal) and pickled punks ( weirdly deformed animals preserved in fluid) lined his path.

While treading his way to the Gift Shop the Kenku found four large glass cases. The first three were labeled "God Botherer," "Thug," and "Hoodoo," and contained the skeleton of a humanlike being that had obviously died trapped in the case. The fourth case, labeled "Criminal" contained a dragonborn. Seeing that the dragonborn, like the owlin was trapped in a spell, and would die miserably if left behind, the Kenku freed the Green Dragonborn.

The Green Dragonborn found himself with only his clothes in a strange room with a Kenku letting him out of a trap.

The Kenku got to the gift shop. The medallion was hanging from the statue's hand by a counter labeled Cuthbert's Cantrips. Whereas everything else in the shop, including the statue was cheaply made and over decorated, the medallion was very well made and plain. It was a simple silver medallion inlayed with lapis lazuli on the front to form an infinity symbol.

More later...
