Frontier Session 1 Report

Session 1: 16-06-2024

Our story begins in The Empire of Mori when Sweecu get's a letter demanding that he reports to the factories as an indentured servant to cover the debts of his parents. He manages to escape unnoticed and rescues the Nac Mac Feegle, No'-as-big-as-Medium-Sized-Jock-but-bigger-than-Wee-Jock Jock [Jock], from being captured by a local circus. Heading for the docks they pick up Nessra and Arrash to escort them to Olmerrec in search of gold and glory. They charter an old smuggling vessel The Sparrow's Flight to get them out of the city and set sail to the town of Brightwater.

After 3 months sailing, they arrive at the town of Brightwater and immediately head over to the guard house to speak to the captain Derek Halfheart. He welcomes the party and arranges for them to stay at the Green Dragon Inn for the night and bids them to return in the morning as he has some work for them. The party heads over to the Green Dragon Inn where they rest and eat. Sweecu uses his powers to turn into a raven and scout the surrounding area and Nessra heads out on foot. Leaving Jock at the bar where he consumes many bottles of whisky he has stolen or thought he has stolen.

Arrash decides to stay behind as he is afflicted with disease he caught at sea. He remains in his chambers in the inn for a few days.

After a night's sleep, the party sets out to the guard captain where they meet the guards woman Jazra, a Half-Elven Colonial Militia soldier, who is concerned about not having heard from the Good's family that live in the Wilds up north close to the northern guardpost. They set out following the lead of the soldier and get ambushed on the second day of travel by some strange lizard creatures! Jock who rushed ahead was struck by a poison dart. Sweecu teleports into melee and quickly dispatches a creature while Nessra takes up position behind and snipes the enemy. After a quick fight they manage to defeat the creatures, learning from Jazra that they frequently raid the settlements and the guard awards a 10 gold bounty per lizard tail.

They arrive at the Good's homestead after a quick stay at the northern guard post. Searching the home of the Good's the party finds the bodies of 3 of their members but discover the young boy to be missing. Fearing for his life they set out in the direction of some lizard tracks outside doubling-back to the guard post. Losing the trail momentarily they pick it up in the morning and discover a strange clearing in the jungle with a large fire pit and strange stone statues.

They manage to suprise the lizards and take out a few of their numbers in the first moments of combat. Jock rushing out to fight a strangely dressed lizard. Nessra and Jazra taking cover behind a stone statue and sniping at the enemy with Sweecu engaging in melee against a monstrous spider. The lizard creatures are quickly defeated and the strangely dressed one is taken out by Jock. The monstrous spider is killed by a quick cut from Sweecu's katana. Nessra uses her new found weapon the scattergun to destroy the last of the spiders.
