Session 2

As Elduth talked shop with Tel'Kros'Kros, Selgrix went to the armory and King Shark went to the ocean to have a swim. Elduth remembers that he has Luna in his bag of holding and pulls her out, much to both her and Tel'Kros confusion. Afterwards the two meet up with Selgrix at the armory. After they met up an alarm sounded and several soldiers could be seen running in one direction. The party followed and was greeted by the sight of a small army charging towards the trenchline. The party was told to hold their ground and prepare for a fight. Selgrix, Elduth and Luna jumped over the edge of the trench to meet the approaching enemies head on. Combat ensues.   Elduth throws out a grenade and instantly kills 3 thralls, while her turret kills another one. Striker kills several while Selgrix flails about hitting very little. Luna discovers that she likes guns. After dispatching the hostiles in their sector the party moved to the next trenchline, which had several enemies attacking it. Striker kills some more, Elduth kills one by throwing an axe and her turret turns 2 imperial soldiers into jelly Selgrix continues to flail about while Luna slips in blood and falls to her back, before sitting up and popping some shots off. Republican soldiers in the trenches kill a few Imperials. After the second sector is clear, a soldier from the trench tells the party to get down, and they comply. A series of explosions rock the battlefield as artillery rains down, killing anyone caught out in the open.   With the bombardment, the attack is now over. One of the soldiers tells the party to find General Bishop. They head to the command tent and find him. Bishop tells the party that a cargo airship had been hijacked by bandits led by a sadistic tiefling, and that they took the crew as hostages. He asks the party to board the ship and help the surviving crew, and they oblige. Bishop says the airship is airborne and that Tel'Kros will use a helicopter to fly the players there. With this, they set out for the airship.   After about an hour in the air, they find the ship. Tel'Kros lands on the deck, the party disembarks and heads inside the ship while the chopper flies out of sight. The party comes across a hallway with 4 different paths. They head to the crew quarters first, where they find 6 tiefling bandits playing a card game. Elduth casts acid splash and hits several of the bandits as Striker jumps on the table and swings in a wide arc, decapitating 3 of them. The rest of the party made short work of the survivors, but not before a bandit fires a shot from his revolver that missed Striker. From down the hall, 2 more bandits approach to investigate the gunshot. Elduth, Striker and Luna hid in the room while Selgrix made a distraction by pretending to cook in the crew quarters kitchen area.   When the bandits enter the room they find a table melted from the acid along with the bodies of 6 of their colleagues, 3 of which had been decapitated. One stares at a body in shock, while the other draws his pistol and threatens Salgrix with it. Elduth and Luna take this opportunity to strike. Elduth chops off the legs of the one on Selgrix with her khopesh while Luna stabs the one who was distracted.   With the crew quarters cleared, they party heads for the engine room. There they find one of the ships crew members being harassed by a bandit. Striker and Luna sneak attack the bandit and make short work of him. The crew member, shaken but grateful, tells the party that the bandits are keeping the rest of the crew prisoner in the cargo bay and that they planned on selling them to the Imperium. He gives Selgrix a key to the captain's quarters. The part heads to the cargo hold where they find numerous crates, 10 of which had prisoners crammed inside. Three bandits patrolled this area, one of them seemed to take pleasure in tormenting the prisoners. One of the prisoners spots the party and calls out for help, which attracts the attention of the bandits. One of the bandits is damaged so severely he explodes, sending blood and viscera throughout the cargo hold. Once all the enemies are dealt with, Elduth tries using a magic key to open the crates, while Selgrix uses his warhammer to bash them open. Once all the prisoners are free, the party tells them to go to the engine room.   The party heads for the bridge, where they meet the bandit leader and her bodyguard. After a brief exchange that ended in an even quicker battle, the leader and her guard were dead. The party investigates the captain's quarters where they find some items to sell along with a stone they recognize as being one of the keys to the Gate. After checking the captains room, Selgrix tries to take the wheel of the airship but fails to figure out how it works. Elduth throws him out of the way and takes control of the ship, then honks the horn to give Tel'Kros the all clear,   Tel'Kros flies over and is impressed by Elduth taking the wheel. As the party heads back to Whitesburg, Luna falls asleep, Elduth goes to the engine room and Selgrix smashes boxes.   Upon returning to Whitesburg, Bishop reccomends that the party take some time to get a lay of the land. The party decides to use a vehicle to move faster, so they ask Tel'Kros to teach one of them how to drive a jeep.   Elduth given a crash course (pun intended) on how to drive a jeep. An innocent bush is murdered in the process.   With Elduth behind the wheel, the party heads north to the village of Malstone, making a pit stop to continue their genocide of bushes along the way.   As they aproached the vilage, smoke could be seen past a fork in the road. They took the fork and went to investigate. When they arrived at the source, they found a farmhouse on fire and an elven woman and her 2 children being attacked by a group of fire newts. Combat ensues with Luna hanging back and sniping the newts with her M-101 Manitou, Striker being OP as usual, Elduth using a drone and Selgrix flailing in vain some more.   Once all of the fire newts were killed, the woman explains how the newts came out of a fissure just behind the house. They set fire to the house and attacked her and her kids as they tried to flee. She also mentions that there was a strange creature that came out of it the night before. Her husband , who is currently in town, shot the strange creature and wounded it but was unable to track it.   The party goes to investigate the fissure while the woman and her children head into town. Upon reaching the fissure, they find that it is so deep they can't see the bottom of it. Commotion can be heard from inside and Selgrix spots 6 more fire newts inside crawling towards the top of the fissure. Elduth drops a grenade into the fissure, causing it to collapse and kill the newts.   With the fissure dealt with, the party went to track the strange creature that the woman mentioned. They find blood as well as tracks and follow them for half a mile. The tracks end at an abandoned mine shaft, which had several dead and mutilated goblins at the entrance. The party decides "fuck that" and caves in the entrance using explosives.   With that taken care of, the party heads into town and splits up. Selgrix goes to talk to an engineer who should have a part she needs, while Luna and Elduth go to the tavern to relax. In the tavern, the two find the elven woman children from the farm, along with the husband. The husband offers a small reward in GP as a thank you for saving his family. When Elduth asked what's been happening around town, the barkeep mentions that there has been odd noises coming from the abandoned mine just outside town. Elduth asks wher the mine's entrace is, and the barkeep gives her directions. She excuses herself to investigate while Luna begins to drink.   When Elduth arrives to the second entrance, she places explosives and caves it in. Townsfolk come out of their homes in confusion, but she gets away without anyone noticing she did it.   As this is happening, Selgrix locates the engineer's shop only to find it suprisingly empty. The engineer explains that his stock was stolen by a band of kenkus that came to town recently. He offers to reward her with whatever parts she may need if she finds and returns his stock.   As the sun sets teh part meets up and looks around town for the kenku theives. They find a secret storm cellar behind the tavern and open it. Inside, they find the kenkus along with an orc. The party eavesdrops for a few minutes and discovers that the thieves are with the mafia and plan to sell their stolen goods on the black market in Kentar. After hearing this, the party makes their presece known. Combat ensues.   After dispaching the mobsters, Selgrix and Elduth take some parts and GP from the pile of stolen goods before getting the engineer so he could take his items back.   Upon returning to the tavern, the barkeep hears of what happened and demands that the bodies of the mobsters be removed. Elduth and Luna went to thier rooms to sleep, so Selgrix goes to dispose of the bodies.   What followed was a comedy of errors as Selgrix tried to figure out how to dispose of the bodies until she opted to chop them into small peices and scatter the chunks throughout the forest. She made sure to sing "tiptoe through the tulpis" as she did so.   With that taken care of, Selgrix returns to the tavern and draws dicks on Elduth's faces as she sleeps, then attempts to pour ink on Luna. The attempt fails and Luna wakes up very pissed.
