I wonder if I really need to do a session report all the time. Maybe I am going to make this a short regular thing where I am going to go through all the sessions each month and just briefly run down who played, what happened, who died, and what notable things they got.
Session 2 had them delve into Castle Dyson again, at first somewhat hindered by a pack of wild dogs that decided to make a feast out of the goblins they left lying around the week before…
(ohhh, I need to define them better, I see it now, it’s a special breed of dogs that came after most humans left the area after the fall of the Empire… They are called Glimmerdogs, and clearly they are hardy enough to survive in the horrendous wilderness of the Glimmermark)
… but they were quickly shooed away, and made no problems, full of goblin meat as they were.
Below they started to investigate the other direction than last time when they killed the local goblins, managed to hide away when some more goblins came by, despoiled a gravesite, and fought a group of half-formed skeletons.
In the end they came away with quite a lot of treasure.
Session 3 started similar, only they noticed someone had at least moved the goblin bodies to the side. They delved a bit further into the first level, despoiled some more graves, tried to find some treasure, fough a rather hardy zombie/mummy hidden in a sarcophagus, and then decided to explore deeper into an opening of a cave system where they found another exit, and a group of easily killed giant rats. There also was a some hissing sound when they tried to go a different direction, but that they left alone for now. They left through the lower exit, with rather less spoils altogether (mostly a bunch of copper and silver coins), although they gained their first magic weapon from the one undead they fought.
We were using mipui for mapping, which was fine, even though it was a bit fiddly. Dyson’s maps are a bit difficult to map at the best of times, and this one had a natural cave system with dimensions that were simply not easy to describe and/or depict in mipui. In the end it worked, but it took somewhat longer than it could have.
One of the things I find nice about the games on the Grenzland server is that they are generally time-limited to just two hours, which fits much better with an adult’s life than a lot of games that go longer, but just need more time commitment. In comparison to the standard 3-4 hours of my Shadowrun game these games are much less draining for me. Now don’t get me wrong, I love roleplaying, and I like DMing, but a normal roleplaying session is emotionally exhausting for me. This particular style of gaming is much less so.
Alex’ Reports for Session 2 and Session 3
Open Table: If you are interested in a very basic OSR-game, this game is intended as an open table, and iI try to have one session each week on Tuesday (sometimes Wednesday), so maybe sign up for it on the Grenzland Discord server or our IRC network. Games are German or English, 120minuts, and take place at 8.15pm
