10/11/4710 Session 2
Game start ca 2 am, long rest at Heidmarch Manor, currently mid-afternoon, ca 3pm, in The Crow, one of the Irespan Pilings around 2000' off shore from Underbridge docks.
Quillax & Scotty returning to Heidmarch Manor are accosted by a whip-cracking tower girl accompanied by three docks thugs. She demands the Shard; Quillax is full of Pride and refuses. Battle starts, a new Pathfinder, Keelan, sent from Heidmarch manor appears and aids them, while Quillax turns into a bear!
The group return to Heidmarch Manor; Sheila uses an Ioun stone to cancel the curse on the Shard, and proposes a quest to recover the Seven Shards and reform the Sihedron, the greatest artifact of ancient Thassilon. Quillax can detect the location of the next shard in The Crow, one of the Irespan pilings in the sea off Magnimar.
After a long rest and brunch ca 1pm the trio head to the docks, where they seek aid from the 'Eyes of the Hawk' monument while fire beetles nose around consuming garbage. There they meet Lerizzle, who recruits One Eyed Igor the boatman to row them out to the Crow. He leaves them there. They enter, soon encountering a wererat and human tower girls, killing all three.
21/11/4710 AR: Session 4
The Pathfinders penetrate deep into the Crow, now abandoned by the surviving Tower Girls following the ambush & death of their wererat leader (in Session 3) & a threat from Sheila Heidmarch to make themselves scarce before her 'archaeologists' return... One new recruit, a tiefling warlock, acquires an Aberrant Rat of Unusual Size as her henchmonster, and the group successfully solve the puzzle of the Siccate Doors - they begin to swing open...
21-22/11/4710: Session 5
The group journey down to the next level, battling grey oozes, aberrant bats, giant spiders, befriending a mite... the mite takes them to its leader King Zungga, who charges them with recovering his 'spare crown' and missing pet, 'Clickylegs'. They rest overnight in the mite warrens before proceeding down into dungeon levels beneath the Crow, battling yellow crab spiders and an aberrant Sinspawn. At last they come to an enchanted pool of healing water, where they take a short rest.
Session 6 22/11/4710
The group explore the Thassilonian dungeons beneath the Crow. Scotty returns. Eekum the mite is killed in a battle with giant spiders, much to Gedout's sorrow. Anastasia returns with her aberrant rat. The group battle a swarm of centipedes, defeat and capture Clickylegs - when he is carried back to King Zunga the king fails to recognise the party, orders their death & is swiftly dispatched by Keelan the Bard.
Back down below, the rat encounters and flees from ancient Thassilonian skeletons, only to be shot down by Lerizzle. Continuing explorations, stairs even deeper down are uncovered. Quillax senses that the next Shard is closer now.
Session 7 22-23/11/4710
The group explore the next level down, killing an enormous Larva; Gedout gains an enchanted ranseur. This level seems infested with devils. They kill two nupperibos, return a fire elemental to its home plane, then meet, chat with, and murder an imp who calls himself the Suzerein of Little Erebus, who says there is a portal from Hell around here. They kill several lemures then rest in the Suzerein's lair overnight before continuing, passing the hall of fleshwarping and safely navigating past an ancient fireball trap.
Session 8 23/11/4710
Party kill 5 nupperibos and Quillax-bear breaks down the door of Stink, an unusually intelligent lemure who asks them to kill the 'bullies' - the other devils in the dungeon. They find scrolls of water breathing, a sea exit to Magnimar bay and a glass undersea observation bubble, where they spot a wrecked ship offshore. Swimming out through the kelp beds to the Liza Jane they are attacked by two lobster-like Reefclaws; after a tough fight they loot the ship, finding an enchanted shield, a mithril rapier and a ring inscribed L.B. - Lerizzle recognises it as belonging to the lost fisherman Lockerbie Brast.
Returning to the dungeon, Quillax lights a fire and they feast on delicious roasted Reefclaw (short rest), then continue explorations, meeting imps (Anastasia gaining control of a Nupperibo) and eventually the Accuser Devil Lord Baz, who proves very cooperative, rewards them for slaying the Lord of Little Erebus, and even provides a map of the dungeon level. Further exploration uncovers a key which Quillax uses to wind up a Thassilonian Clockwork Servant discovered earlier - it imprints on her.
Session 9 23-28/11/4710 AR
Advancing deeper into the dungeon past the fleshwarper laboratory, the group are ambushed by a gray ooze & a hell hound from either side. In a bitter battle Ilvain is sore wounded by the fire hound, and Quillax nearly killed by the ooze. Eventually the party pull through, but are sore wounded. They rest and tend their injuries. Proceeding on they reach the pit of the Aquatic Sinspawn, Gedout leads them into battle and they dispatch the fierce brutes, then return to Magnimar at night. Tangling with two veteran guardsmen on the docks (loquacious Garus & silent Max) whose extortion attempt is deterred by mention of the Pathfinder Society, they return to Heidmarch Manor and report back ca 9.30pm.
28/11/4710
After four days (24-27/11) of rest, selling, and purchase of gear, on 28/11 the group return to the dungeons beneath the Crow; it takes about 90 minutes to work their way down to the next level, still unexplored. Quillax senses they are drawing closer to the Shard.
They enter a region of ancient Thassilonian sewer tunnels, and encounter a singing ghoul painting a cistern with painting of Magnimar harbour - it's the famous Lockerbrie Brast! He asks them to return his brooch to his wife, Liza Jane - but don't tell her he's 'alive'. He tells them of derro raiders beyond, seizing people from the city via a tunnel, and dangerous cave morays in the sewers beyond. The group pass him and prepare to battle the morays...
Session 10 28/11/4710 ca 11.30am-12.45pm
The group engage the three cave morays with trepidation, defeating them after a tough fight. Pressing deeper they hear high-pitched voices arguing - Derroes! They try to sneak up on them, but Scotty is a wee bit noisy... Three derro adventurers and their Carrion Golem vs 7 Pathfinders proves a tough battle, but the enemy are defeated, a female derro Atlatia captured, and their prisoners released - Fenster the Blight (charmed & strapped to Atlatia's Bed of Lurve...), One-Eyed Igor, and two Dockway fishwives kidnapped by the derro. Quillax finds herself strangely attracted to the eastern wall of the derro hall...
Session 11 28/11/4710-5/1/4712 AR
The party are still resting and making plans in the derro vault, having located a secret door to cobwebbed stairs, when they are attacked by their leader, Magister Khrysm, and her homonculi. She proves a tough and evasive little bugger, but is eventually defeated. The derro Atlatia fled during the battle. They loot Khrysm's laboratory then head down to the final battle...
Two massive Shriezyx guard the Runeforge and the black adamantine Shard nestled therein. The beasts strike with amazing speed, cutting down Lerizzle and Keelan in moments. Things look grim - but then the mage Ilvain unleashes a massive torrent of fire that kills one Shriezyx and horribly wounds the other. It lunges forward and fells Quillax too, but then Gedout impales it on the ranseur of Alaznist.
With the monsters dead, Keelan seizes the Shard of Greed, Quillax correctly identifying the right Ioun stone to negate its Curse (which would be bad) and the party with the four rescued captives take the long secret passage back into Magnimar's sewers, emerging in Dockway just after nightfall (about 5pm). On a quiet street they hear a cry for help, and rescue the aristocrat Aldern Foxglove from Wreckwash Blade muggers, Quillax turns into a bear and kills the leader, Gloria. Two flee, one is captured. Gedout summons the city guardsmen Garus & Max, who prove as helpful as usual... Eventually Ilvain and Keelan use magic and persuasion on them to send them down into the sewers to the derro lair, while Quillaz seals the manhole cover shut! The captured Wreckwash blade sneaked away. Aldern gives them 1pp each in thanks. The group escort Aldern Foxglove to a dockside tavern and question him. He is not very forthcoming, but a doxy tells them he's been looking for a particular someone in Dockside to buy something - a potion? Eventually he takes umbrage at the questioning and leaves in a huff.
Back at Heidmarch Manor ca 8pm, Sheila is grateful for their efforts, and word is sent to the Lord Mayor's office - he sends a reward of 50gp each for their solving the mystery of the disappearances. Gedout is given the Shard, he can only see a vague image of marshlands... it will be over a year before the proper rituals are mastered and the location of the next Shard is revealed (2/1/4712 AR), in the Lady's Light tower at the SW tip of the Mushfens... Meanwhile the heroes can attend to daily business, and complete their Pathfinder training.
...Sadly Sheila Heidmarch is keeping the whole 'have acquired bits of Thassilon's greatest artifact' thing under wraps until you can get the whole set and reforge the Sihedron - she doesn't want bad guys getting wind of this - so your exploits won't feature in the Pathfinder Journal yet, but rest assured your friendly Venture Captain is sending confidential reports back to the Grand Lodge in Absalom, and one day you'll be famous. biggrin Sheila believes you found a Runeforge beneath the Crow that can be used to reforge the entire Sihedron, and is working with the renowned Thassilonian expert the scholar-mage Brodert Quink, late of Sandpoint, to research the ritual that might accomplish this.

M1 4712 AR. The ancient empire of the Runelords may be long dead, yet the legacy of Thassilon continues to haunt the frontier realm of Varisia. Shadows of a dark past, the legendary Runelords now stir in their slumbers, and in waking seek to reclaim their lost kingdoms...
With Korvosa still reeling three years after the curse of the Crimson Throne nearly brought the city to its knees, the people of Varisia fear that the greatest threat to their land has yet to play its hand. When agents of the newest Pathfinder Society lodge in Magnimar learn of a fragmented artifact scattered throughout the lands of old Thassilon, it falls to a new band of heroes to step in and gather up the remaining fragments of this Shattered Star. For if the greatest prize of Thassilon's first ruler cannot save Varisia... what can?

Session 34 21/1/4709+ AR - Downfall
Tsadok's draw from the Harrow Deck of Many Things reveals that he is the true King of Korvosa, grandson of Queen Domina the Usurper and heir to the Arabasti line.
Vemi Tsadok Kaz and Naglatha ascend to the top of the Sunken Queen to face Ileosa in the floating Pool of Blood, accompanied by an enlarged Megrim, Laori Vaus, and summoned angels. Ileosa sends forth three dread wraiths, six simulucra of herself, her four elite erinyes, and six barbed devils from the pool before joining in herself, but her forces fall in droves, Naglatha's barbs downing many. Kaz is badly wounded by her adamantine dancing fan, but eventually Ileosa is overcome by the power of Serithtiel. Marie/Marius takes the Crown of Fangs and Tsadok smashes it with his hammer, as Serithtiel ends Ileosa's reign forever. The pool starts to form into the body of the great wyrm Kazavon, the sight stuns Laori. Vemi retreats, but Naglatha plunges Serithtiel into the forming dragon's skull and it explodes in a flash of blinding light. The pool scatters, falling dormant. Laori asks for the Fangs, but Naglatha gives her six seconds to leave, or die. She complies.
Back in Korvosa, Neolandus Kalepopolis has discovered Tsadok's lineage, the council of nobles unites to beseech him to take the throne and he accepts. Neolandus appoints Naglatha leader of the reformed Sable Company, and Naglatha seeks Wings of Flying for her wolf companion Megrim. Toff Ornelos, the sinister leader of the Acadamae, agrees to enchant wings of flying for Megrim, having recently acquired some left-over Horned Devil wings from the massacre in Castle Korvosa. Megrim looks like being one odd-looking bird...
She sends word east to Lastwall; the Church of Iomedae notifies her they are sending a party to recover the Fangs for safekeeping.
Tsadok, aware of the supposed Curse of the Crimson Throne - that no sitting monarch of Korvosa has sired progeny - determines to secure his lineage prior to his coronation. Marshall Cressida Croft graciously declines an offer to aid his efforts...
Kaz Anders prevails upon the new King Tsadok I Arabasti to appoint an elected Assembly of Commoners, bringing the long-sought-for democratic element to Korvosan governance.
Of Vemi Diaquani, Initiate of Zon-Kuthon, there is no sign.

Session 30 RL13 18/1/4709 Devil Fortress Inferno
Barely has the initial battle ended and Vemi had a quick scan of Togomor's chamber, than Naglatha & Megrim arrive, followed by the angry Malebranche devil and his summoned barbed devils. At the same time a guardroom door opens and out come four newly-clad Gray Maidens. Kaz tosses Nagltha Serithtiel while Tsadok holds off the Maidens. The battle rages, the Horned Devil is sore wounded by Serithtiel and forced to withdraw. Kaz blocks the stairs down with a Wall of Ice, but soon six Erinyes teleport in all over the fortress level. Vemi's devotion to Zon-Kuthon protects him from their Unholy Blight. Naglatha fights like a fury, cutting down numerous mighty devils.
Eventually but one Gray Maiden still stands, yelling "For Ileosa & Korvosa" she strikes a mighty blow that fells Naglatha before she herself dies. Naglatha is saved by Vemi & Tsadok. The group are left standing amidst mounds of Gray Maiden and Devil corpses scattered through the first floor of the fortress.
The group search Togomor's room for his hidden stash then head upstairs to the Throne Chamber, where Queen Ileosa awaits accompanied by Gray Maidens, three Nessian Warhounds, and freshly healed Horned Devil. She commands the heroes to leave Korvosa...

Description
Serithtial is a +4 holy Zon-Kuthon bane bastard sword used in several crusades from Cheliax against Nidal, and finally used by the hero Mandraivus in his assault on Scarwall. Although made of steel, Serithtial is treated as being made of both cold iron and silver for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction. Serithtial glows with the equivalent of continual flame, but her wielder can extinguish or ignite this glow as a move action. In addition, the weapon gains a further +2 enhancement bonus and deals an extra 2d6 points of damage against foes who serve or worship Zon-Kuthon.
Destruction
Serithtial can only be destroyed if Kazavon—restored to life—or a great wyrm shadow dragon worshiper of Zon- Kuthon uses its breath weapon on the blade while it is unattended.
Session 29 18/1/4709 Assault on Castle Korvosa

Afternoon: Sabina, Vencarlo Orisini & co go to free the Gray Maiden prisoners from under Longacre Building and raise a ruckus while the PCs assault Castle Korvosa by air, evade a horned devil and enter the building, battling numerous devils and some sleepy Gray Maidens. The hideous abomination commanding the defenders phases in and tries to steal Serithtiel, but is slain, freeing the Bloatmage Togomor. Togomor weeps with gratitude and thanks Vemi - who kills him anyway.

Session 25 29-30/12/4708 Castothrane & Danse Macabe
After destroying its Devil guardians, the group loot Kazavon's Throne Tower of much loot and retire to the Orc-Held Outer Bastion to rest. Laori Vaus discovers that by wearing a golden circlet looted from the hoard she can see through the eyes of Castothrane, a Skeleton Warrior and Soul Anchor who guards the Gatehouse's battlements accompanied by two more skeleton fighters.
30/12/4708.
The group make an air assault on Castothrane and his 'men', facing only moderate resistance as Kaz's ankylosauri crush the undead champion into the wall, and Megrim finishes him. With Castothrane's demise his soul is released to whatever hell awaits him. The Dimensional Anchor over Scarwall fades for a moment, and hundreds of souls escape into the morning sky (including a powerful Dread Wraith), though thousands more doubtless remain trapped within the walls as the Anchor swiftly returns.
Next they proceed to Kazavon's ballroom at the west end of the castle, save Laori Vaus from an unfortunate incident with a cursed statue of Kazavon, subdue the Danse Macabre in the dance hall, and loot the corpse of a tortured knight buried beneath the ballroom floor. They locate the secret door by which Mandraivus' band entered Scarwall, and collect the platinum coin he dropped there for luck more than 600 years ago - it could be worth 200gp to the right collector!
Finally the group decide to assault the Donjon, where resides the Temple of Zon-Kuthon, Unholy of Unholies. Getting in and out proves problematic, twin powerful Forbbidance rituals shield the place, but the half-orc Shaman manages to Dispel the ward against entry by the non-evil. Laori is blasted by the Forbiddance that bars exit to the non-good. After ritually cutting and cleansing herself in the anteroom, she curls up by the pool for a nice sleep.

Session 24 21-29/12/4708 Crawling Scarwall
Laori Vaus on a good hair day |
21/12/4708
Kaz has dinner with the Freemen, who talk with him about goings-on in Korvosa. Ileosa's grip tightens as she allies firmly with the devil-summoning Acadamae. She has increased grain tributes from the outlands, causing shortages in Kaer Maga. The Freemen speculate that she may be preparing for war against someone.
Naglatha is anointed as a Champion of Pharasma in the Godsmouth Ossuary. Boon: Naglatha may add Deathwatch to her list of 1st level Ranger spells. She may eventually add Death Ward to her list of 4th level Ranger spells (so useable at 13th or 14th level).
Jareth has met a friendly half-orc priest in Kaer Maga, Tsadok by name, who is willing to join the party.
28/12/4708 AR
After a week of rest and shopping, Vemi is nearly recovered from his death, when he receives a Sending from Laori Vaus beseeching his aid. Apparently the rest of her party have been eaten by Gugs in the Underdark beneath Scarwall, unless Shadowcount Sial was able to Word of Recall back to his Sanctuary in Nidal - Laori didn't see.
That evening Vemi Shadow Walks the party back towards Scarwall.
29/12/4708 AR
The group arrive at the Scarwall Bastion 3 hours before dawn, to find it held by Deadwatcher Orcs, who menace them with bows, but are successfully cowed by Tsadok. The party spot a bedraggled Laori Vaus hiding behind a nearby rock. Vemi brings up a Tiny Hut to rest and plan.
Laori tells them that the undead Castellan Mithrodar, current lord of Scarwall, was persuaded by Shadowcount Sial to open the Warding on the Star Tower. The Brotherhood of Bones spent much of the week clearing out most of the gargoyles, before the Brotherhood Airwalked up to the Star Tower's entrance, Sial opened the final Seal, and they descended deep into the depths. She says she saw the glimmer of Serithtiel on an Underdark lake island - right before the Gugs struck.
Towards dawn a patrol of 5 orcs return to the Bastion, bringing their strength to 12.
Late morning and the party are rested and ready to set out. Laori wants to strike immediately at the Star Tower, where the rest of her group perished. Vemi rejects her suggestion - there is more pain and suffering to be had through first clearing Mithrodar's spirit anchors from Scarwall. By the end of Vemi's oration Laori Vaus is persuaded that he has special insight into the mind of the Midnight Lord, falling at his feet in awe.
The group pass through an honour guard of Deadwatcher Orcs at the Bastion and decide to start with whatever abomination bars the way through the Outer Keep - it proves to be a Corpse Orgy, an aberrant collection of bodies, easily destroyed by Kaz Ander's summoned tiger spirit.
The group enter the War Tower, locate and destroy an orc zombie that was once Kazavon's lieutenant General Gorstav. Much tedious searching of empty rooms ensues. The group work their way up spiral stairs to a cupola, where they find and destroy a gargoyle - but this alerts devil guardians of the heights, plus the few remaining gargoyles. A brutal fight ensues against two bone devils, three gargoyles, and Nihal, a powerful Ashmede Devil and one of Mithrodar's Spirit Anchors - Laori is wounded, but at length all foes are destroyed.

Session 23 19-21/12/4708 RL11 Vemi Dead & Reborn
19/12/4708
Group confer with the Brotherhood of Bones. It's decided that rather than Sial's plan to assault the Star Tower, the PCs will take out the Umbral Dragon while the Brotherhood of Bones explore the West Wing and deal with any reinforcements. Rest overnight in Count Sial's Bone Tower.
20/12/4708
At dawn, re-enter Castle Scarwall and enter the old stable block, lair of Belshazam the Umbral Dragon. A terrible foe, he slays Vemi Diaquani, but not even the aid of Nessian Warhounds can prevent his defeat. Kaz takes his head, and Megrim kills the last hellhound as it flees. The group withdraw, Naglatha taking Vemi's body. and confer with the Brotherhood back at the gatehouse.
That afternoon Naglatha Kaz & Jareth the monk re-enter the Castle to seize the dragon's treasure. Naglatha has a plan to put Vemi's soul into one of the Night Hag's soul jars, hopefully before it can be drawn into Scarwall. Kaz manages to get Vemi jarred at the second attempt, the first soul likely a hound or possibly Belshazam. Exiting the stables, gargoyle brutes swoop down, but the group evade them and escape.
Back at the gatehouse as night falls, Sial & Laori Vaus kindly offer to reanimate Vemi as an undead thrall of Kazavon, but Naglatha has a better idea. Using a Shadow Walk scroll they return to Kaer Maga, spotting Durnhelm's spirit now among the Shoanti shade guardians on Varisia's frontier.
21/12/4708
Naglatha visits the Church of Pharasma, where she is regarded as a champion of the goddess. The priests successfully Raise Vemi.
