I'm back!


Not sure of the best way to fold into the narrative, but Telrith would have spent money on two battle-axes for his elementals to use. Combine that ($100) with the $150 owed Gathica and the $300 for two weeks cost of living, he should have $2,450 left over. What do we need to pay for food this time?



I think we've gained three character points since I spent all of Telrith's, but arguably he didn't earn the last one because I was gone.



Also, did the cart situation change?



Telrith summons two axe stones... like sword stones but with axes.

Great news! I would say we found Telrith at The Caves, maybe Telrith he went in search of stones and paid someone to get there safe and sound (thus the $300 investment).

Here’s a recap about our current situation.

It was a peaceful trip to The Caves, no combat so far; we are heading to the lizardmen camp.

Bain moves forward to scout the area:

He takes a combination of stealth (14) and camouflage (17) to protect himself as he scouts, he succeeds.
Hide: 3D6 → 10(2 +3 +5)
Hide: 3D6 → 12(5 +5 +2)


Bain makes an observation check (12) to retrieve information about the place and tracking (12+1) to look for the lizardmen, he succeeds at both actions:
Hide: 3D6 → 9(2 +1 +6)
Hide: 3D6 → 12(5 +5 +2)

Finally, he also looks for the best path (navigation 14) to take the party (along the cart) to the orc’s base/prisioner, it is a critical success!
Hide: 3D6 → 3(1 +1 +1)

Cart was sent to (GNOMCO/Tesla) and upgraded with SELF DRIVING TECHNOLOGY (ARI).

Besides that we are going to the lizardmen and challenging them/recruiting them to fight the ORCS.

Bain finds no recent lizardman tracks anywhere in the area. If he had to guess, the lizardman left the canyon and travelled to the swamp in the west, less than a day's walk from here.
He does find a very good pathway up and down the slopes, so he can get the cart up to any cave opening he wants.

I think it would be best to press the orcs for now, seeing as this mission is time critical. I was more or less hoping to meet the lizardmen and try to enlist them, but for now the mission comes first. We will make do, perhaps a quick and stealthy scouting and then a full on planned attack.

As the party advances, Bain takes a combination of Stealth (14) & Camouflage (17), he succeeds at both actions:

3d6=9... success.
3d6=14... success.

Which cave is the orc cave we are attacking?


Telrith and the elementals will advance with weapons drawn. The left elemental, a dark and jagged form, is named Obsidiax, and the one of the right, formed of a dark red sandy rock, is called Redstone.
