Session 10: RadiantMasque
General Summary
The session opened with downtime activities: Jaxon fought in the pits, Forseti immersed himself in forbidden historical research, and Liam concluded a dangerous gambling quest by defeating the Collector and claiming The Winning Heart. The party then prepared for The Radiant Masque, commissioning custom masks and costumes before entering one of Camp Hope’s most symbol-laden social events.
At the Masque, tensions rose quickly. Forseti’s interview with David Laurids Prinz failed, while Jaxon unexpectedly encountered his brother Caleb—now disturbingly close with a Wake Chemist—leading to a confrontation that resolved nothing and worsened fears. The party mingled with figures of power and mystery, including Dr. Elira Vasquez and fortune readers, while laying social groundwork through carousing.
The Parade of Faces became the emotional centerpiece of the night. Gideon, Liam, and Forseti performed across its three stages with mixed but generally positive reception, culminating in dramatic unmasking moments. Ritual followed spectacle with the Burning of Names, revealing each character’s inner conflicts.
Afterward, Forseti took a decisive step toward uncovering the truth behind his parents’ murder by scheduling a mind-stitching session and arranging a meeting with Levi. The night closed with Lyndi’s mesmerizing Echo Stage performance, new contacts formed at the Glimmer Bazaar, and tangible rewards earned—cementing The Radiant Masque as both a triumph and a turning point for the party.
Liam, you really need to work on smiling more.
