lurkerwithoutNoah had to cancel Call of Chtulu, between school, his movie and family he's been pretty fried. So it was some more HackMaster. Don't get me wrong, I love running the game, I just don't want to see the others burn out on it...
So this week the group had dinner with some civic leaders. During which Mile's managed to light a table on fire and generally emberass his character. But the group was still recruited to become pirate hunters. Once the refit of their ship is complete they'll set out to break the pirate fleet of the mysterious Queen Anne...
But in the meantime they took on a sidequest to investigate the disappearance of the daughter of one the city's premiere armorers. Kendal used his thief contacts to find out that the girl had been grabbed by a "strange man in a red mask" and taken into the sewers. And he also acquired a partial map of the probable location of this man. So the group headed on down. They decided to avoid the several side areas meant to simply whittle them down and hit the slaver lair right off. Of course, they did miss the alarm trap on the ladder leading down. But they managed to fight their way thru the slaver's simian orc guards to get at the pair of darkmen kidnapping women to sell in the NetherDeep...
Despite getting hit by a silence spell and a web, they still managed to win thru and take down the dangerous mutl-classed killers. They killed the mage/assassin and took the cleric/assassin prisoner. And even rescued the girl. This set them up well with the girl's family and earned them some points towards making peace with the Circle of Unseen Hands thieves' guild...
