2020 Holiday Special: Slay the Krampus Part 2

For our holiday 2020 Tabletop Roleplaying Game Collaboration we bring together six content creators to play a game of Slayers (by Gila RPGs). Our players will hunt down The Krampus in the city district of Yuletide, a district that exists in a perpetual winter wonderland. As combat is engaged and the Krampus attack is investigated, the Slayers realize that not all is as it appears. The Eyes of the Saint are always watching.

 

The Krampus reveals itself. James is confused. Rhymes, Rhymes, Rhymes! A district makes a decision.

2020 Holiday Special: Slay the Krampus Part 1

For our holiday 2020 Tabletop Roleplaying Game Collaboration we bring together six content creators to play a game of Slayers (by Gila RPGs). Our players will hunt down The Krampus in the city district of Yuletide, a district that exists in a perpetual winter wonderland. On the eve of the Sunsday festival, the Slayers are called upon as backup after another group fails the hunt. Can these heroes free the citizens of Yuletide from the terror of Krampus? Will the Sunsday festival be saved? Only if the Slayers of the Crimson Syndicate don’t accidentally break their legs trying to fly with a bed sheet.

 

Gifts are exchanged, drinks are made, and the hunt begins. Also there may or may not be some Bedsheet flying.

Quarantine Session 1- Beginnings and Frost Giants

Episode 1 of our Quarantine Sessions has begun. Our players have taken on new personas in this journey:

Chris is playing Tamu, a tortle monk from Chult who is on a pilgrimage for his home library. Part of this journey is to discover new knowledge in the world and bring it back to his masters.

 

David is once again running the game as DM.

Jon is playing "Chip" Flannegan, The horny halfling boy bard who thinks far too highly of himself and his abilities. He is here to have fun, satiate every bodily desire, and perform his music... poorly.

Josh is playing Lumivroth, An athletic lion-tabaxi trained as a clan crafter of great weapons, on a quest to recover all the weapons he ever created before they can do more harm.

Zach is playing Ulharixen, a lizardfolk rogue who is out in the world to make sure that the evils that befell his people don't befall others in the same way. He seeks adventure and the salvation of the world.

Zoe is playing Shay, an elf (?) cleric. They once cured a great and terrible disease from a town and is now out on a journey to help others and make sure that none suffer as that town had suffered.

 

 

Come with us on this Journey. You won't be disappointed.

 

The Party's Future Seems Uncertain

Having saved Tik Tock (for now), the party faces the backlash of the town, despite their best efforts to keep everyone safe. Lyra has terrible scars. Gude finds a new treasure. Damien slams their enemy. Father Crow parties and insults. After a night of festivities, drinks, and poetry, the group retires to their beds for the night. But lurking in the shadows is a threat none of them are prepared to deal with. Their future seems… Uncertain.

This is the last episode of our Saltmarsh campaign until we are able to begin recording in person again. Until then we will be bringing you remote recorded “Quarantine Sessions” with new characters, a different story, some fun action, and silly moments. The audio quality won’t be as good in the Quarantine Sessions, but thats kind of what makes it fun. We hope you’ll stick with us. We look forward to continuing the adventures of Damien, Father Crow, Gude, Lyra, and Zinfir soon, once this whole Pandemic has blown over.

The Party Tries to Save Tick Tock

Lyra has awoken in her temple, a burning zeal for her god in her heart, a new hammer in hand, and no Tick Tock to be found. She frantically searches for her dear companion and finds who holds the little Monodrone Captive. Calling upon her allies, will Tick Tock survive the late night brawl? or will everything end in a shower of sparks, a hail of shrapnel and a tavern wall being blown out?

The Party Runs Into an Old Friend

Our party has worn out its welcome at the Lizardfolk lair and quickly return to Saltmarsh, much to the annoyance of the city council. After providing a report of their journey to to the Lizardfolk they quickly learn that a council of war has already been called and many of the surrounding settlements have banded together to take on the Sahaugin Threat. All is well until an old friend makes their reentrance into the lives of our heroes. After an awkward (re)introduction to Gellard the heroes of Saltmarsh are invited as special guests to a grand feast to celebrate the new alliance. As our party prepares for the feast, Xendras has more goodies for the party to spend all that gold. Lyra receives guidance from the Great God, Procan.
