Adventure Log: Shen Month 4 Epic Quest Part 4 The Long Road Home

Rules Used

What did I think about the dungeon delving table? Overall, I thought it was pretty slick. It doesn't take up any space and, since you're not going back through the dungeon, you don't need tiles, cards, or sketching it out. Not that tiles and cards are a bad thing, I just didn't have room playing on my coffee table right now and it speeds things up. Less components equals less set up time. It is truly random so you could have a long dungeon or you could encounter the big bad and his treasure room on the first roll. Both of the dice can be modified with a +1 to get you going through the dungeon faster though.

On with the next encounter, wandering!

Now that the brave adventurers have retrieved the Eternal Father statue from the clutches of the goblin king, it's time to make our way back home. Sadly, it was not bloodless. They lost their latest recruit, Evetta, to a well placed arrow from a goblin. We're over half way through this quest. Hopefully everyone else makes it back.

I will use the same PEF's as the 2nd wandering encounter, which are: Altengard  (1-3), Goblins (4-5), and Trolls (6). It is taking place during the daytime. There will be five PEF's in this encounter...Geeze.

Our Band:

Shen Rep 5 AC 2 Star Thief (smooth, clumsy)

Phineas Rep 4 AC 2 Grunt Soldier (Hard as Nails)

Ragnar Rep 4 AC 4 Grunt Healer (Agile) Red Sun

Emerging from the goblin cave, the three heroes' shaded their eyes and stood there a moment taking in the fresh early morning air. Somber at the loss of their new friend. Ragnar, standing over the freshly dug grave, said a few words.

Afterwards, they supped and rested for the long journey ahead.

I will make this one easy so you don't have to read any further. A bunch of Altengards and I gained 1 IRD total!

PEF 1: Four Altengards with a mounted knight. I gained 1 IRD and could recruit but I decided not to, for now.

PEF 2: Three Altengards this time and I failed to impress them, 1 DRD.

PEF 3: Two Altengards, A soldier and a shooter both rep 4. The shooter had no ability so decided not to recruit. I like having shooters but I decide to not recruit. I did manage another 1 IRD.

PEF 4: I seem to be rolling a lot of 3's tonight. Another Altengard band, this time three. The leader had free spirit so they get +1d6 on the interaction table and passed the same on the interaction table.

PEF 5: MORE Altengards, another four. The leader was again blessed with free spirit and we both passed the same amount on the interaction table.

Next encounter, last wandering so I can turn over the statue!

Total IRD/DRD so far this month:

Shen 8 IRD, 10 DRD

Phineas 4 IRD, 1 DRD

Ragnar 0 IRD, 4 DRD

IRD Pool: 15 (This will be split equally among the group with excess points going to a random band member)
