Hey dakka.
We are on our 3rd session in a multi DM campaign (we have 2 groups running adventures in different parts of a world)
I decided I would post my notes from this one, because it was just so damn funny.
Let me give you a little bit of lore for the world we are in.
A long time ago when the world was created by the gods, the dragons were the first race to be created, as servants to the gods (which I have created a massive list of over 100 deities for this particular campaign). The dragons served the gods well for the first millenia, until one dragon named Sorek decided to defy the gods.. He was able to steal a lot of their power, and amass a large army of dragons to rebel against the gods. The god Mangal was the only one who could stand against Sorek, who was able to corrupt mangal's heart, but not before Mangal skewered him. Sorek's army was defeated, and buried under the planet. Mangal slowly went insane. During this time, all of the other races were created by various deities in order to provide various things to the world. fast forward a little bit, mangal has invented the orcs, and the naga. He has assigned his children (also gods) to watch over the naga, while he kept a close eye on the orcs.
One race that was created by the goddess of magic, called the Viknaru, became the dominant race on the planent relatively quickly. They were able to beat out the gods in terms of raw power within a short period of time.
The viknaru were so magically inclined, they were destroying the planet because of all the magic they were using. They had to make great manaliths that bore into the planet, to ensure their technology could survive. In the process, the runoff from the manaliths managed to revive Sorek, with the souls of all of his fallen comrades, he returned as a Draco-lich. He completely annihilated the Viknaru race, and left a gaping scar in their continent where only the dead could walk, and nothing else could grow. Mangal took the opprotunity to use his race, the orcs to try to win the new Sorek over. When the attempt failed, mangal syphoned all of the souls out of Sorek, fully corrupting himself and making himself an all powerful god.
The world was in tyranny for 1000 years, the orcs forced the giants out of their northern homes and into the dead scar where the Viknaru had once lived... the trek was arduous, and only whose who could adapt survived, and thus the human race was born, over a longer period of evolution of course. Men were able to commune with the other gods and unite all of the other races against mangal's orcs, and eventually overthrow them.
Fast-forward even more, and mangal is locked up by the other gods, his power has waned, but not enough. The magic city of kerajama has been founded by elves seeking power in the dead-scar. and men have made domains all over the known world and the orient (lots of oriental stuff going on too!)
I'll skip some more detail.... and basically mangal knows he is going to die because his power keeps waning and waning, so to ensure his survival, he impregnates thousands of females across the world.
Mangal dies.
100 years later a wizard looking to revive sorek has kidnapped people whom he thinks is the child mangal. These are the player characters. Basically an order called the order of the severed head has rescued these people. Half of them were sent by the order to go to the orient and convince the lands of Wu-song (chinese themed) and Osho (japanese themed) to unite with vanaraland (indian themed) to help the order stop this wizard from raising sorek, and potentially mangal. (the oriental adventures half is what I am DMing)
Another group has been sent to courdeaux (17th century france) to convince to help the order. I am a player in this group.
Right now I will be highlighting the events that took place in our 3rd session, where I am a player. I may or may not post the oriental adventures stuff later, depends on if you like my information log.
Basically our party (a human monk (me) an ifrit summoner (khalil) a human anti-paladin (richard) a goblin rogue/fighter (max) and a vanaran druid (trey)) was sent by the order to go and deal with a pirate problem that is plaguing Courdeaux.
They put us on board a "merchant vessel"... which ended up being a ship of free-booters who are allied with the order.
This is the Info Log that I made while we were playing:
Important information
Grippli, Master Croak. Leader of Gripplis. Blunt. Sent us on mission to Courdeaux. Assigned us to battleship.
Richard wants to steal the boat. Richard wants the weapons…. I’m following him. He wants guns. But he is behaving.
Mutiny? We subdued the captain. Some weird s*** is going down. We are on a pirate ship. We f***d the pirate over, but then he got all of his s**t back. Civilian ship is sketchy. We are robbing the ship….. “Is this another mutiny? Damn it..”
Cannon men jumped off the ship because Richard ordered them to fire, and I SCREAMED at them. It was sweet. Trey f****d up. He killed the captain of the other ship.
We left trey behind. Good…good.
Grizzupls (max) did f**k all, except having a fountain dream.
Captain sorthal
Basically what happened is, we realized we were on a pirate ship, I attacked and tied up the captain because he was attacking an innocent ship, once he made clear tat he wasn't going to kill anybody, I let him go.
Our antipaladin kept trying to find ways to screw the crew over so he could steal the ship, I knew because I have an incredibly high sense motive.
The vanaran went on the other boat and executed their captain, so I told the captain to strand him.
We sailed off into the sunset.
Also, did I mention that Grizzupls, the goblin is pretending to be a halfling? he is wearing a dead halfling's face... it is pretty sweet.
Let me know if you liked this
