[QUOTE="Richards, post: 9320278, member: 508"] During tonight's "Ghourmand Vale" session, the PCs: [LIST] [*]Were invited to visit a "freak show" of exotic animals (well, magical beasts) in a tent setup outside of town by the lady in charge of it (a perk of being the Vale's most well-known adventurers) [*]Saw the following in barred cages: 4 gricks, 4 krenshars, a dragonne, two girallons, "Snake-Boy" (apparently a yuan-ti who could almost pass for human), and a female tiefling in a cage across the way from Snake-Boy's, all while being given the tour by the proprietress (followed around by her gray render bodyguard) [*]Queried the proprietress why intelligent creatures (tielfling, yuan-ti, dragonne) were being held in cages, got evasive answers [*]Had the paladin detect for evil, and sure enough, the proprietress, Snake-Boy, and the tiefling were all evil [*]Had the elf archer move out of visual range just long enough to turn invisible, but while there she saw a yuan-ti abomination enter the tent area, apparently looking for Snake-Boy [*]Had the sorcerer's grackle familiar take to the skies as aerial reconnaissance, he alerted the sorcerer of the abomination, and the sorcerer alerted everyone while casting a [i]haste[/i] spell upon himself, his familiar, the halfling rogue, and the half-elf paladin (the other two PCs were out of range) [*]Fought the abomination, taking it down with a [i]sleep arrow[/i], a [i]scorching ray[/i] spell, the paladin's charge with his [i]+2 holy flaming burst longsword[/i] and a smite evil attack - which knocked it out, and the halfling then killed it with a coup de grace attack [*]Had the elf druid "bunnify" the proprietress, which panicked the gray render into attacking the nearest person (the elf druid, as it turned out); she escaped by wildshaping into a snake after being chewed/clawed by the render (she slithered through the corner of the girallon cage, staying well out of their reach) [*]Saw Snake-Boy dissolve the pin going through his ankle (through which he'd been tethered by a chain) and break down the door to his cage [*]Caught the gray render, the bunny, and Snake-Boy up in a [i]wall of thorns[/i] spell cast by the snake-druid [*]Watched as the bunny reverted back to human form on her own (she must be a shapechanger of some type!) [*]Killed the gray render with a [i]lightning bolt[/i] spell, took out the proprietress with an arrow, and then talked to Snake-Boy who demanded to be freed from the [i]wall of thorns[/i]; the sorcerer killed him with a [i]magic missile[/i] spell after determining he was too dangerous to the Ghourmand Vale populace to let live [*]Gathered up the "roadies," explained why we were freeing the tiefling (she'd been sold into slavery as a young girl and was "evil" due to her tiefling heritage, not anything she'd ever done; we told her to keep her nose clean) and the dragonne (he'd been captured when he had a broken wing, but he was long since healed and we didn't like the idea of an intelligent creature kept in a cage) [*]Got an argument from the druid that the other creatures shouldn't be kept in cages either, but we weren't willing to set krenshars, gricks, or girallons free to attack people (the dragonne feasted on deer and the like), so she was outvoted [*]Leveled up to 12th level (at long last!) [/LIST] The proprietress turned out to have been an aranea, which explained how she could undo her "bunnification" so easily. Johnathan [/QUOTE]
