Stonehell: Bad Reflection

Session 198 was played on 5/23

Morgana, Mage 8 (Rob)
Borumar, Thief 9 (Josh)
Joho, Mystic, 7 (Chris)
Gimble, Mage (Scott)
Koltic, Cleric 6 (NPC)
Aroon, Fighter 4 (NPC)
Jameth, Fighter 4 (NPC)
Lor’Koth, Dwarf 5 (NPC)

After a little break, the party returns to the manor, heading directly to the groundskeeper’s cottage, and explores it. First up was a tool room, and then the bedroom with a weird mirror that reflected wrong. Joho tossed a rag at it.

While everyone was poking around, Morgana made a grilled cheese sandwich on the tiny stove. A detect magic spell showed the entire cottage glowing (no real help there). Going outside, Morgana casts levitate on Joho, and ties a rope to him, and Borumar drags him around like a balloon. He checks out the roof of the cottage and manor, and then they head to the garden maze.

It’s a simple and small enough maze that there’s no danger of getting lost. However the animated (demonic?) plants don’t make exploring it easy. A pair of blood rose bushes snag most of the party. One is chopped down, the other gets turned into a mouse by Morgana. In the center of the maze is an ornate fountain.A water weird attempts to drown Joho, but he floats out of its reach.

Circling around the rest of the property, they make their way to the front door of the main house. It’s unlocked, and they enter. A mirror of life trapping snags Koltic, Jameth, Aroon, and Joho. In spite of this they continue on through the entry hall and into the lounge. There a mimic grabs and slams Lor’Koth twice, and starts to gnaw on him. Borumar, Morgana, and Gimble quickly slay the beast.

Gains:
Kills: Mimic, Blood Rose Bushes
Losses: Koltic, Jameth, Aroon, and Joho (all trapped in mirror)
