Today’s adventure began with finding a new dungeon/dungeon entrance. This was found some time ago by Belree the Antiquarian while searching for a chair Nese Geard Tower. The group - Zander, Lister, and Theodora - decide to set out and explore the staircase entrance.
They travel to the tavern and recruit some men to fight for them. 4 Hired Men (3, 2a, 2b, and 1). And the Fighter from their last foray into the dungeon re-upped. After the passing of Moe last time it was decided that a new orphan would be taken in, cared for, and given charge of the mule in the dungeon. The orphan chosen was Abbey.
Moving into the dungeon, or what we assumed to be the dungeon. The stairwell is wooden and has rotted through but it is decided that Zander will check out the space below with his climbing skills.
When it was determined that the coast was clear the entire party (which included the 3 adventurers, 4 hired men, the orphan, the mule, and Bart the dog) traveled through a dimension door opened by Lister into the room below.
The room was rough hewn and clearly older than a basement with small animal scratches on the walls.
The party travelled forward encountering a small but rude/rowdy group of goblins who got into some word play with the group. After a brief scuffle involving Zander and a well shot arrow the goblins retreated. The group followed, coming upon a Goblin orgy/party. It was unpleasant to witness and the group retreated quickly placing Hold portal on the door.
They continued, finding a door with two Pigmen and another group of goblins.
The adventurers attacked, beating back the 4 with magic and weapons. Another group of goblins (5 of them) approached from behind. Once close enough Lister cast a webbing spell which trapped the goblins. They were subsequently lit on fire and killed. In the end the pig men, goblins, and 1 hired man (our repeat offender) succumbed to wounds. They pig men and goblins took out all of their anger on Zander, who survived but at a loss of quite a few hit points.
Lister acted quickly, bringing all ten back to life as zombies!
With now a very large company the team set off again. They entered the room and found a filthy mess that looked as if another orgy had just finished in there. They looked under a Once nice rug and found only a “clean spot”. There was an ivory scepter taken by Lister that reeked of bad goblin sex. As well as a chest, the contents were removed and loaded on the mule.
Theodora removed silver nipple rings from the pigmen’s nipples and pocketed them.
They again encountered a door and on the other side could hear what sounded like goblins. Nasty, teasing goblins, playing games. The door was opened and it was quickly decided that they were in fact Bugbears. The door was then closed. When it was opened again the Bugbears were gone.
The team then followed, traveling through a room that was actually a very large toilet. The orphan girl, Abbey, begins to lose her stomach (and her sanity).
Through the room there was another door, which lead to a crossroads. To the left was the orgy room of the Goblins. Some of these venture out and begin humping and molesting their dead prior compatriots. Stating, “We mate for life.” Perhaps they did not know they were zombies. Maybe they didn’t care. To the right, the Bugbears. And straight ahead was another room where only the strong sound of wind could be heard.
Following that path the company finds an unusual octagonal room behind use bronze doors emblazoned with snakes. In the center is a coiled snack as wide and thick as a man. And it is hungry.
In exchange for their safe exit, the team promised the snake fresh meat (after it rejected the initially offered zombie corpse). Hired Man (#1) stays behind as “collateral” and the group imagines they will never see him alive again.
The plan was for Theodora to charm the Goblin leader/king and lure him and thus his followers to the giant snake. On the way however they encounter a Flesh Gollum! The Gollum is fairly simple and just shambling along. The team lure him back toward the snack room and offer him up instead.
The snake doesn’t love it but it too hungry to refuse.
During his food processing, the snake is distracted by satiation. The team uses this time to skirt around the room and through another door. The door lead to another hall and a room filled with dedicated ancient snakes. Smaller ones, like garter snakes. And on the other side of the door at the other end of the room was a female goblin. A magic user.
The group attacks and somewhat quickly defeats her. From her body they take ivory candlesticks (6), some wet fleshy scrolls (Lister), 8 golden nuggets shaped like heads (Theodora and Lister), and a metal ring of unknown origin (Theodora).
From here they decide it is best time to leave and use the dimensional doorway to arrive above once more, ending the journey.
Casualties from the party:
2 Hired Men.
The Orphan’s sanity.
3 Zombies (7 remain).
