Riddleport

From Bard's Lore
The Blot in the sky over Riddleport.

Strange portents loom over the city of Riddleport, and only the heroes can figure out what new menace has arisen in Varisia's freewheeling pirate cove of Riddleport.1

A note on the recordings: Due to different versions of Mumble, some recordings have problems with syncing.

Quotations

Fisherman: Just out of curiosity, what exactly are you? Blue skin, white eyes; I've never seen anything like you before. Are you one of those... mountain wizards? Hear much about them...
Kerrick: I prefer to think of myself as just a traveling herbalist, but whatever makes you feel better.
Fisherman: Feels better if I can tell my kids I saw a Mountain Wizard. They've always wanted to hear about one of them. Right. Well.
Kerrick: *gives a wink and a nod* Alright then, I'm a Mountain Wizard.
Fisherman: *gasps* I knew it! *snaps finger* Thank you!
Kerrick: And I've got a unicorn.

  -- Session 1, "Pay the Devil His Due"


Kerrick: *calls Brummen over* Um, let's grab a table and put it over this hole. Somebody--somebody apparently left a hole here by the door. Wouldn't want anybody to fall in.
Five seconds later, a banging is heard underneath
Kerrick: *stamping on the table* Hello? Someone down there? *no response* Right, I think we're good here.

Trivia

  • Kerrick rolled the campaign's first Natural 20 with his Knowledge: Arcana check on the mage's house in Riddleport.
  • Arnon Katsu rolled the campaign's first Critical Failure (natural 1) with his Knowledge: Nature check to identify the creature in the cage as an imp. He instead marveled at the tiny man in the tiny cage and wondered how he got inside.
  • Jenara rolled the party's first Natural 20 on a save (will).
  • Brummen rolled the party's first Critical Failure on a save (will), becoming dazed for a round.
  • In their very first combat together, only two of the four adversaries were stopped inside the combat area. The other two, along with their summoned horse, died in a ten foot by ten foot pit created by Kerrick.
  • The druid's Entangle causes just as much difficulties for the party as it does for the party's opponents.
