Atlantis we a go 1478.03
A classical style forum in a high place, beneath a dimming blue/indigo sky.
Surrounded by columns holding a brightly coloured promenade, 6 Ogre Wedge Soldiers decked in Sarpadian Empire armour and armed with giant crossbows, javelins and pikes form up and challenge the BMG.
Essen knocked out after being peppered by 6 giant crossbow bolts (3x criticals). Eventually the BMG breakup the formation and take down the captain, sustaining heavy damage. A time loop circles through and the bMG are back in their corrent timeline, the Ogres fade, with the Captain sitting upright after healing and go back into their own timeline.
Symbols are collected of 4 elder gods, as in the current timeline the forum is cracked and broken, a magic circle encolsing the forum with faded and eroded symbols inside its borders. The Elder God symbols are the representations of the very first magical symbols for the Elder Gods Horned God, Yurlunggur, Ammutseba and Azathoth.
Timelines and sirens wail mutliple times shifting the BMG across different time periods and locations within Atlantis.
There are:
Party sees sigil being dragged out, the building coming down around them.
Gnomes successfully reverse the sigil.
Party is shunted out of room, which reforms behind them. Another timestream is with them.
Party is on a platform, high in the air. Oracle at Delphi vibes. 13 collanades with statues. 6 broken, 2 in disrepair. Dwayne has'
returned. The sky itself is moving. More Eldar in attendance. 13 in a semi-circle.
Farseer, surrounded by warriors.
"You will know listen to my voice. I will count from 1 to 13. On the count of 13, you will know exactly what you are."
Essen has gone back 250,00 years in the past. Sees a 300 foot tall Titan. A crystalline sky is breaking apart. Dark things are falling
from the sky and breaking the land beneath. Atlantis. Layers visible through the gaps in the sky. Multiple Titans. War between the
Titans and the Eldar Gods.
Three leves of physical, one level of mental exhaustion.
Second timestream is prior to first.
"Have you been patying attention" lecture to Essen.
Gimblenock is invisible, approaching Eldar. Farseer's lynx is tracking him.
The Eldar are rising through the Emanations.
A Khornate Bererker, a servant of the Titans, lands in front of Essen. Ancient dwarves appear. A leviathan appears in the sky.
Nothing interacts with Essen. Gas mask soldier appears again.
The Eldar ritual concludes. They summon the seven Great Old Ones to Atlantis to 'burn it all down'. The sky starts to tear asunder.
Giblenock is in the Void, wreathed in phantom energy.
Party shunted back to the main timeline. Gimblenock is a frozen hologram.
Ophion, Gundark and Dwayne are Poisoned. An outline of a Gold Dragon ripples through them. RESTRAINED.
Gimblenock reappears with a long, black key blazing with Phantom Energy.
One of the pillars shakes iself apart and a Dark Apostle (AC 19) appears, a warrior of the Titans.
Ophion casts Evards Black Tentacles. Word Bearer restrained (14 bludgeoning damage). 15 more on it's turn.
Gimblelnock casts Slow on it.
Dwayne shoots it and Crits a bunch of them. Total damage = 81.
Further damage done.
The plane tilts upside down.
Essen walks through a tower. Finds a room. Encountered it previously with the Dream Walker. 250,000 years in the past. 100 foot gold statue
of Hecate stands in the room. Eldar are running in, panicked. The Great Old Ones are trying to breach the room.
Essen drinks a Potion of Hill Giant Strength to help close the doors. Leviathans and other monstrosities try to break in.
Essen gets transported back to the rest of the party. Party surrounded by canals floating through space. No barriers for water flow.
Flowing in all directions. Party standing in a plaza. Rune covered orb is floating about 20 feet from party.
Moranth script covers it.
Essen and Dwayne teleport on top of it. Designed by the Suprurr. Gift from Sorne to the people of Goreo (a race of giants. Progenitors
to modern Hill Giants).
The Sorne are an Elder Day race. Allegedly builders and engineers of the First Atlantis.
Gimblenock investigates the sigils on the ground. More symobols of the Elder Gods. Aves Reva and Architeuthis. Six collected in total.
Essen is turning gold/bronze. Circuitry lines appear on her. A black sphere opens up approx. 100 metres above her.
The edges are hazy. 'ZAMUT'.
Essen becomes a gold statue after 12 hours.
A Star Spawn appears above Essen.
Another black orb appears below Essen, tendrils heading towards her an Dwayne.
The Goreo Hill Giant appears and says more cryptic things.
Essen awakens. She is now a living map of Atlantis.
The Star Spawn awaken.
Ophion takes a ridiculous deal. Fireballs Spawn for 45 damage. In exchange, next Fireball uses d8s and draw 3 cards from the Deck of
Many Things, discarding one permanently.
Gundark attacks next. 21 damage on Left. 15 damage on Right. Disadvantage to hit anyone but Gundark.
Gundark is The Slayer. He is destined to kill the party, aside from Dwayne.
Next session to start with Essen's actions.
- hallways made of ancient timber and lined with tired rugs, powerful undead entities pass through the hallway taking Gundark with them
- vast empty spaces with ropes of spun silk crisscrossing them, while a shaggoth waits and watches
- obloid earthern constructs with bottomless chasms between them, lined up in all directions. cliffside trails dug into the sides, other timelines criss cross turning the obloids into a sparkling big marketplace full of magic and terror
- serpentine designed chambers on the inner surface of massive orbs of more than 300" across linked together. orange, blue, yellow and red crystal tiles move continuously is dizzying patterns on the wall, distant sounds of terror
- A steeply pointed mountain made of basalt on the horizon, in the foreground small shrines with holographic beings of a past time moving inside
- moranth from another timeline, appearing as holograms tend a silvery and green tree with branches that span more than a mile in all directions, the trunk more than 150" across. The tree tries to communicate with the BMG but they are swept away to their own time and other location
- a broken maul more with a haft of over 200" lies against the inside wall of a fortress with exceptionally tall stone walls. Defenders the BMG can't make out, are desperately holding off an attack led by Ashanigiliti. The walls push inwards, compressing the defending area into a smaller and smaller square bailey. The sky is a made of a hundred ribbons dozens of miles in length
