Mission 4: The Volcano

Mission Objectives:
Infiltrate and secure volcano base from clones.
Locate missing fellow operatives.

Locale: Active Volcano

Our agents have located an enemy stronghold deep in the Moisty Mountains in an active volcano. The area is heavily patrolled by scout constructs and clones. We have located a cave (1 hour away by foot) which can be used as a secure area to regroup. We will teleport you in via teleportation circle to the front gates. If need be, the MARS chain will direct you to the cave if you need a secure area to regroup. Also, a Rod of Security will be provided as a cautionary messure. As soon as the teleportation circle has replenished its power the following dawn, we shall send support to assist. The information came at a cost; 2 of the 3 agents were captured. You will leave at dusk.

Enchanted items provided:
- Rod of Security
- MARS chains (with cave location)

Objectives:
- Infiltrate and secure the area
- Retrieve our agents

Further Intel
===========================
The entrance to the volcano stronghold consists of two great slabs of black obsidian set into the base of the hillside. Each portal is thirty feet tall, nine feet wide, and smooth as glass.

These black stone doors bar entrance into the stronghold. The obsidian doors are 5 feet thick and have no handles; iron hinges mounted to the inside walls hold them in place. If a Shadey Clan member touches either portal, both doors swing inward quietly and remain open for 1 minute before closing on their own. The doors appear magically locked to all others and impervious to physical harm.

goggles of night - fiona
drift globe - braeden
dwarven thrower - vondal
boots of speed - vondal

The Roof... the Roof is on Fire

It had been almost a week and R&D had provided no more answers on the function or purpose of the last orb found in the alien queen's lair.

Otherworldly Assailants

Waiting. Nothing but waiting.

The group had returned relatively unscathed from their last expedition, though there had been some close calls. Venturing into an uncharted cave wasn't their style, of course, but with the thought of innocents being captured (and worse!), they couldn't have reasonably turned back. They were not prepared for what they found, however...

It had been a comparatively quiet week or two since.

Once all those who had been captured and enslaved were safely back at headquarters, the heroes were able to give thought to how this latest 'event' played into the strangely-unfolding plot they were slowly being dragged into. No one could remember a time when such a myriad 'incidents' had gone unexplained for so long. It was making people edgy... Especially Kaelis.

He didn't seem himself this last week or two; he wasn't as gregarious as he often seemed, and he sang less. Everyone seemed to be dealing with it their own way; Tyrion spent less time away from the bar, Chaedi had taken to making her own arrows instead of relying on the armory's stockpile, and Ardnthas spent less time in prayer than before.

Everyone seemed on edge.

The Cave of Depravity

the heroes...

Isak manages to dislodge one of the green dragon's teeth from its lifeless head. After tossing the perverse dead dragon's tooth to Tyrion, he notices a small pouch tied around its neck. Isak brings the attention of the pouch to his comrades. "I found something", Isak informs them, as he uses his massive weapon (which is covered in multiple kinds of blood from his downed enemies of the night) to cut the pouch loose.

The pouch falls to the ground, and out rolls a small clear glass orb. The orb looks to be transparent, and about an inch in diameter.

Zero dextrously picks up the small orb with the pouch from where it came and places it back inside, and manages not to make direct contact with it.

Zero: "I'll take this back to Milo in R&D. Maybe they can tell us what this is. Or does anyone else wanna see it before i put it away for safe keeping?"

Kaelis: "can i see that?"

Without a word, Zero tosses over the pouch with a flick of his wrist to Kaelis. The pouch lands squarely into the bard's right hand making it an ease to catch.

Kaelis removes the small orb from the pouch, and inspects it eagerly.

Kaelis: "Its magical, but i cant quite make out what type. Perhaps we should pass this off to R&D."

Zero: "I concur."

Arndithas: "Good idea. Let's get these girls to safety. They've been through a lot."

In Search of the Prisoners

In a land where practically all evil organizations and bands of wrong-doers had been quashed for decades, the slightest mention of evil intent and innocents being oppressed traveled like wildfire to the ears of the Knights. So it took less than two days for the first report of human trafficking to catch the attention of General Six and her lieutenants.

Practically no better reason to be suffering this headache. Kaelis thought to himself, leaning heavily on the HQ display table as the General ran them through the particulars.

The heroes were dispatched within the hour. Since R&D was constantly working on upgrading the equipment and resources the Knights used, the heroes were able to triangulate the apparent location of the reports received to within a small series of caves long thought to be empty and unused.

Approaching the cavern opening, the heroes discovered it to be a crypt long forgotten, and so it was with tentative steps that they descended into the darkness. Two huge crypts paired on either side of the staircase lay cracked and open; clear sign that they had been looted, but this only heightened the heroes' apprehension; what kind of traffickers would choose such a place to keep people hostage?!

As they stepped into the darkness, the heroes realized too late they were already set upon. From the darkness, they were attacked by more of the same drown they had encountered in the abandoned mine just the week before. But it was not the dark elves that surprised the heroes, it was a lanky, oddly-shaped mechanical beast that attacked, not with claws but with blades of metal and beams of burning light!

Too many enemies, too little light! thought Arndithas, and with a wave of his outstretched hand, he caused the entire crypt to be bathed in light; blinding the drow and lifting the heroes' waning spirits.

The Abandoned Mine

Dispatched by General Six, the heroes assembled to visit a long-abandoned mine from which sounds and mysterious traffic had been seen lately.

"Strange..." Chaedi said as they all boarded the dropship.

"What's that?" Garrick responded.

"After all this time... why would people start using the mine now?" It's not like there's any material wealth there, that's why it was abandoned in the first place, wasn't it?"

"Maybe there's storing something there they don't want to be found easily.." Isak offered as he ducked low to allow the massive glaive strapped to his back to fit up the ramp.

"I can't wait to see!" piped in Tana, already comfortable seated in the hull of the ship.

The shared glance of the rest of the heroes was enough to suggest they all liked the young one's exuberance.

Venturing deep into the once-abandoned mine, the heroes were set upon by a throng of bugbears, hulking goblinoids who seemed to be guarding the cavern mouth itself. Creeping ahead with shadow-like stealth, Chaedi was able to execute a handful of bugbears almost before they knew they were set upon.

To the surprise of the heroes and just as the ranks of the bugbears were thinning, several drow came to the bugbears' assistance. Wielding their poisoned blades and casting dark magic, the drow said nothing, but acted in almost perfect synchronicity.

Garrick and Isak corralled the drow and bugbears and neatly sliced through them with a mix of magic and steel. Chaedi turned another three bugbears into pincushions, and Ardnthas brought the wrath of his god to bear on the evil creatures.

Once the quiet of the cavern had been restored, the heroes moved on to discover a drow wizard boasting the head of Duke Szeffrin! To the heroes' amazement, the drow tossed at them an emaciated head, and then set upon them a massive Iron Golem.

Sensing the bigger threat, Chaedi sprinted into action and with a flurry of arrows was able to kill the drow wizard before he finished his taunting. Focusing then on the golem, the Knights were able to damage it enough to quell the threat, its iron limbs cast about the tiny cavern.

Staring at the decapitated head before them, each of the heroes then turned to each other; no one speaking, but all thinking the same thing: "Is this really the head of the evil Duke? It was rumoured that none had even seen Szeffrin in a decade, but the long arm of his terrible grasp was constantly suffered by many.

Without any alternative, Kaelis reluctantly wrapped the head in some scrap cloth he removed from his Bag of Holding, and quickly threw the head back in to the extra-dimensional space to attend to later.

Ensuring the rest of the mines were uninhabited, the heroes found no other sign of why the bugbears and drow chose to take up a position in the mines, nor any sign of what they were doing here.

The flight back was quiet but for Tana's cheerful chatter and her many wild theories of what had transpired and why.

Kaelis was not looking forward to the inquiries that the heroes' new treasure demanded...

Episode 1: FRINGE Campaign - 2016-12-21

Fringe Forward... (Member Submission!)

Once upon a time long ago, on a tiny planet called Neuphoria, the lands of the world were for most part living in peace and harmony (think of it as star trek in ideology in a d&d setting). Of that world, the largest city of them all was Infinite. A booming metropolis that thrived in trade populated by humanoids of all variety.

Neuphoria was not always peaceful, for the dark forces of the world were once more prominent, reeking havoc across the globe and ruling almost half of the planet. The forces of evil were led by Duke Ssszzeffffrinnnn, an undead being. Despite having differences among themselves (go figure, they're evil), the duke would call upon them to do his bidding.

As time went on, the forces of good banded together with the help of the gods, and defeated the evil kingdoms, rendering them to scattered small pockets across the globe, leaving the duke not much to rule over. Although, what ever evil remained, still answered to his call. His whereabouts after this became unknown.

The evils that remained in the world were being kept in check by a task force called the Knights of Ni (that's u guys). The evils that remained were left alone, but if and when they acted out, they would be dealt with by the Knights of Ni.

The Knights were sanctioned by the governments of the world to oversee the security of the planet. Its members consisted of men and women of great ability and special talents, who gave their oath to serve and protect, and were led by "General" Six. She was not of the military but was referred to as the general as a nickname because she was the one who sent out the orders.

The task force had a department of R&D (transmutation magic), although not a good one. However, they did create a dropship for them...

Everything in Neuphoria seemed to be good. What could go wrong?
