Tonight, Freya joins the hunt
Campaign time: 3 hours, 19 mins, 53 seconds
Can confirm that the DM has bought the 5th module. Everyone is really enjoying the campaign as more and more of the world gets built! Although I completely understand when people say it's too dense (albeit I like that a lot)
We have an early discussion about how the BBEG wasn't brought up as originally intended in the college area of the tavern. Kinda adds more mystery to the organization!
Bre approaches Victoria informing her about the progress of the mission. The second to final mission is to visit a lighthouse for a meeting, a dangerous lighthouse. It's infamously located on an island half a mile offshore and is cursed. A perfect place for meeting!
Kelik is still disguised as Killer Mike. Hops is back to being a Bunny. Freya and Isabelle need new disguises, which Victoria and Mike end up doing their disguises in a makeover. Always gotta look pretty!
Kelik is thinking about showing up as the bodyguard of the Tiefling royalty, but doesn't know sign language so that is a limited possibility. The rest of us all sleep, since we're either out of spell slots or exhausted
Victoria goes to meet Bre. Seeing behind her the royal couple. Bre asks if Victoria is ready to go out to the island
Victoria also learns that Bre doesn't know sign language as well. They board the boat and head towards the island. They come across the shore of the island, it's red sand, as a though of iron
Bre tells Victoria that she'll be keeping guard. Half a mile away she sees the abandoned lighthouse. Victoria makes a 17 investigation check, seeing an exhibit, it says the isle of odium was once the resting grounds of a great demon shoeshoe who won't be forgotten
Mike at the same time is looking through the rooms of Bre and the royalty. Using thieves' tools to break into the room. Finding about how Bre was a 30 year veteran of war givin life again and again, she has gone through multiple limbs and deaths only because of the Doctor ricktenstein
Mike manages to find a few notes on an assassination mission for the obscuriti. He also learned that Bte has a love of practical jokes
He finds a magically locked chest in the room of the Tiefling royalty. Inside he finds journals but in a language that he isn't really able to understand (it's fey). Mike makes a copy of the journals. He also finds journals mentioning the party and Even more surprisingly that Molly is a person of interest
Mike checks the train. Finding a bunch of potions labeled with different planes of existence, he takes them without hesitation. He also senses undead, fey, and fiends. He also senses powerful fey energy coming from specifically Isabella's room
He sees the voyage with Bre and Victoria coming back. Mike lets Victoria know about the diary, who can actually read it. The journal is about the prince being scared that his father is becoming so involved in everything and creating a headband to allow the mute to speak (but they cannot help but tell the truth with it as it's the unfiltered mind) they're also referred to as the God hand (is this berserk?) A lot of this is his own fears and insecurities, perhaps they can use this against him?
Mike and Victoria argue about Bre. With Mike disliking her and Victoria admiring her tenacity. It's now 11:00 PM and the rest of the party are all waking up, preparing to go the Demonic island of shoeshoe
Mike is going to sleep though instead of going to the island. Freya is seen throwing away her PhD papers, her master thesis incomplete, and is happy to come along. Everyone else is as well
We went to steal some boats to the head island. We easily take them and head to the island, the sand of the island glowing red. Joe goes with Victoria, because it takes the least amount of work with her strength. Meanwhile Freya is struggling, throwing up into the river, as Isabelle does everything. They make fun that Freya really isn't built for anything outside the smog infested city
We see the outline of corpses across shore. Many crawling. Joe also knows this area vaguely from his father's works, knowing that it's a place of demonology and that the clergy fought them off here to save the world. That the war was long and only won because of The demon shoeshoe that betrayed the rest, this is the last island she was ever seen
As Freya is throwing up from sea sickness. She hears a voice in her ears telling her to come to the circle. To come to the center. Enter her domain. I'm s a hissing reptilian demonic voice. A very pleasant and curious voice. Freya is compelled to go towards it. Everyone else follows behind As Freya communicates to the undead about the lady of the depths and they call out to Freya as the chosen child of the stars
They move towards the lighthouse. The voice in Freya's head growing louder saying get closer. Joe now as Hops asks what is going on but Freya ignores heading towards the lighthouse. Victoria puts on her armour during this
They restrain Freya concerned that she is going towards the center without hesitation. The rest of the corpses start making their way towards them as she is stopped. Hops gives Freya carrot juice disguises as alcohol to calm her and as a joke. Freya and Victoria decide to head into the lighthouse
They arrive at a set of bronze doors. Before either one can open them they swing forward hitting the walls. Echoing all throughout. Warnings all through the Walls are etched in blood, but mostly erased, Victoria is concerned as Freya continues forward. Various demon possed beasts in the images
Freya is guided through the tunnels and chambers. Arriving finally at a massive chamber, the prison of the demon of the fork tongue. Keeper of the secrets. In the room is an old man doing rituals with no reflection in a mirror. His clothes of the clergy
Meanwhile up top the corpses surround the lighthouse. One of the corpses breaks both boats
Freya is surprised that it's an old man with a pretty sing-song voice boyo (I've been playing a lot of Red Dead Redemption), whose face melts off, and he challenges them to a fight as only the chosen can meet the Demon shoeshoe.
The faceless man pulls out a sword. On his arm and legs are shackles of many diamonds and rubies. On his hands are brass knuckles glowing with electric energy. Victoria says two can play at that game and pulls out her possed guns Instead and shoots him, he just smiles a toothless grin And at this point Victoria swings at him with her sword and he blocks it with his hands
Freya fey steps closer and takes the sword from him with her gravity magic by adjusting it's weight, but he doesn't care and goes punching at Victoria. He lands multiple punches and Victoria can feel lightning surging through her
Victoria takes another swing with her longsword, the nightstalker, and she adds a second level smite to it. He tries to evade but isn't able to. She lands 20 damage onto him. Her next swing comes in, landing it, and doing 13 damage.
Freya casts pulse wave. He manages to withstand the full force of gravity, though shattering a few bones as he screams out the great malice is returning. We have to make a dex save against an incoming mirror and Freya gets a 1. Victoria gets a 21 dodging away in time but Freya is memorized by her reflection and out comes a creature that looks exactly Freya. The new Freya casts magnify gravity on OG Freya, who is now restrained. The old man has teleported to another mirror
Victoria tries jumping into the mirror but is rejected. Instead she punches the mirror into a thousand different pieces. She uses her second attack to take her pistol and shoot another mirror as the man screams that's bad luck. We can get a black cat later says Freya as she throws her other half off her, though with a bit of flirtatious energy
Hops and Isabelle come to see that two Freya exists. Prepare for trouble and make it double! Hops shoots his crossbow at the old man, but the old man dodges out of the way.
Isabelle turns. Freya and the other Freya both say that they're the real one. Isabelle unable to choose uses an ice knife at the mirrors taking out two of them. The man screams is this my punishment as his hand glows and he punches at Victoria who blocks it as the force around her shatters walls. His other hand comes in punching Victoria for 10 damage
Victoria lands a hit, using her second level smite again, doing 23 damage. With his reaction he kicks the mirror at Anael who has to make a dex save. She dodged out the way but now another Victoria has formed and the OG Victoria attacks her for 12 damage it shattering like glass
Freya casts hold person twin meta magic on both but both of them succeed against it. Freya's clone responds by casting hold person but Freya also resists.
Hops casts mind silver on the old man who is perfectly fine. Hops asks how Victoria is on health, who is at half
Isabelle shoots at the old man with her crossbow but misses completely.
The old man's fist starts glowing bright as yet again Victoria deflects the powered up hit into a wall. The second attack also missed and the third attack finally lands but Victoria responds beating him down and he calls out that we passed and the Demon has visitors
Victoria drips blood onto the guns as a demon drops from the ceiling with a bunch of chains around her. The demon speaks calling to the goddess Malenia to save her and cursing the clergy
She offers us the ability to travel anywhere without detection and all she wants is to witness the people fight for her amusement and more so she demands that gives us tribute. Which Victoria hands her the guns and the demon says that everyone can be teleported sway
They decide to teleport to……
