DnD Desert Raiders Campaign

Sessions Log

DM Notes

Do not read as player between DM'ing sessions.

10/06/09 - Session I - Caravan Caper

Initial Notes

Characters wake up in back of moving caravan cart.
Last memory was being left for dead by raiders/bandits.
Any prior acquaintances among party unknown at this point in time (no backstories yet)
Couple of kids are also riding in the cart and before long a scuffle breaks out between a few members of both groups.
Goblins involved actually manage to hold their own.
One kid, bruised and screaming, stumbles out of the cart and goes down in an ungainly heap.
This sufficiently alerts the remainder of the caravan, which pulls to a halt.
Goblins flee like rats from cart, dodging and climbing to stay hidden.
Some hide, some flee.
Scattered melee ensues.

Enemies

Its not for nothing that gobelins are unlike by most other races. The party is working hard to confirm this dislike.

Caravan of Palor
After the death of some of there members they might hold a grudge.

Alan Triplemain
A drunk gave us a large some of money to look for rare stones for him. We have to give the money back, give him the stones or wait for him to come kill us. As we cant enter Hale anymore....

Palor
On our mission for a priest of Palor there was a slight discussion of opinions. Hireling goblins often causes some trouble. Having a large number of Palor followers die was probably not on his list acceptable outcomes.

Hale
The party seem to have a capture on sigh status in Hale
