A while ago a member of this forum (SilverClawShift) posted asking for help in her campaign and after the successful advice was given she continued to post info about what she had done until the completion of the campaign. I wanted to do something similar with my current campaign based off the Trojan War and the rule system of the Green Ronin book of the same name. This'll be sort of a blog I guess. Oh and in case you didn't get it yet, I'm the DM!
The Players:
Adeus, Son of Billeus Bobeus, Son of Zeus. A greatsword using warrior who fights for his grandfather.
Chridea, the amazon who also specializes in swinging a greatsword around.
Bonus, the badly named Priest of Apollo. He is very cowardly.
And another player missed our first session, so we'll see what he comes up with.
Adeus and his warrior companions were summoned to the court of Menelaus, king of Sparta. Menelaus needs wedding gifts for the marriage of Thetis and Peleus. He put the task to Adeus and his companions to find them for him. First he wants the 48 point white buck from the nearby forest and second he wants the blue sapphire of Hyperion.
The brave warriors went to Dennis the trapper to get some help in catching that nasty old deer. In your first forey into the forest you saw the white deer and followed it to a clearing. The white deer disappeared on the other side of the forest and then 7 normal deer popped out and charged the party. They were quickly dispatched, but Dennis and Bonus were wounded in the battle. The wounded stayed behind to take the deer back to the trapper's home while Adeus and Chridea went on ahead.
The two left caught sight of the white deer again and followed it again. Then eventually lost sight of it and continued using their only their hearing. They heard a splash up ahead and found a shallow river that the deer had crossed. On its way across it had apparently gored a fair maiden. The maiden was entranced by Adeus and invited him to come wash her wounds at her home. Chridea objected to this blatant seduction and tried to force Adeus to continue the search. The maiden then turned into a horrible acid breathing fish person. A battle ensued in which Adeus's sword got thrown into a tree. Chridea managed to slay the fishy after in feigned death twice, but she was wounded and passed out after the battle. Adeus bandaged her up and then quickly exited the forest under the eye of the white deer.
Dennis went back to the river while Chridea healed up and set a snare to catch the white deer. When the party reassembled they checked the snare and found wolf cub in it. Dennis speared the wolf cub and the party continued on the track of the white deer. Eventually they caught up with it, but were unable to catch it. They got lost as the forest got deeper and darker. They ended up in a thicket of sharp briars when the wolves began to howl. The party took up defensive positions before being attacked. Two of the six wolves were killed before they retreated. Torches were lit to keep the wolves away as the party went home to treat their wounds. The wolves attacked again causing Bonus to panic. The beasts were all killed this time and then a huge wolf appeared. The meager humans ran away in fear and ended up outside the forest by nightfall.
