Stonehell: Rats, Harpies, & Skinheads

Session 75 was played on 8/5

Eiric, wizard 7 (Kat)
- men at arms (Alias the Elf, Eddard “Sunny Jim”, Modar, Kartas)
Brie, wizard 4 (Apprentice to Eiric)
A-A-Ron, Thief 6 (Henchman)
Daryll, Cleric 6 (Henchman)
Orpheus, Human Fighter 6 (Henchman)
Karl, Dwarf 7 (Julia)
- Hobart (dog)
- men at arms (Gilcox, Maax, Dar)
Lex the Cheeseman, Fighter 4 (Henchman)
Koltic, Cleric 3 (Chris) - Stayed in town
- men at arms (Medrick)


Karl spreads out the pile of shoes along the hallway, just like the various corpses are spread out along the walls. Finding nothing, they continue on, stopping at the beer hall, and discovering 2 small men with glowing chalk drawing spirals on the floor. Karl yelled at them, and one turned invisible, while the other made odd hand gestures. Karl shooed them out of the room, and they ran off into the dark. Karl then spent a while washing the floor clean of the chalk.

Heading down to visit the wererats, Esmalia agreed to help them get in contact with the Vampire Lord of Stonehell, but that it would cost them 1,000gp. Being a little short, they said they’d return with the gold

From the wererat den to the shaft, the sweet voices of the harpies managed to entrance Koltic, Gilcox, Lex, Darryl, Eddard, and Mordar. Again, the harpies requested to be allowed to keep them. Eiric declined. They then asked if they could borrow them for an hour or so? The men were practically begging, and Eiric agreed as long as they’d be returned unharmed. The harpies agreed, and swooped to take them men to their nests (except the dwarf Mordar, who stayed to watch).

(Lex will have a discussion about consent while under magical influence with Eiric, Karl, and Orpheus later)

While standing in the hallway, waiting for the time to pass, the air pressure shifted sharply, causing everyone’s ears to pop, followed by a strong gust of wind that lasted for about a minute.

After a little more than an hour, the party returned to the shaft, and Eiric called for the return of her men. The harpies brought them all back up. Everyone looked tired, but unhurt. Once everyone was redressed, the party headed around and down to the stairs heading to the caves of level 4!

As they emerged from the stairs, a party of shaved, tattooed, pierced, wild looking near-humans were coming in the opposite direction. With a roar they charged, but being outnumbered and facing a party better equipped, they were quickly cut down.

Gains: 58sp, Harpy STDs?
Kills: 4 Skinheads
Losses: Dignity
