Over For Now

I suspended this campaign for a while.

The blog never caught on like I hoped. =(

I decided to leave it up if only for the Baladar stories and pictures.

Update from some locals

I have to tell you what I can of a band of heroes that have rescued us from the evil temple.

We were captured by some vile sort of creature and dragged inside the temple. As we crossed the floor on the main level most of us lost consciousness.

I stayed awake, but the pain was so unbearable that it was difficult to keep my eyes open....not that I wanted to as the stink coming off of our captors was just too much.

They chained us in some small sort of jail and pretty much forgot about us. Every once in a while we could hear some creature outside our door. There was lots of terrible wailing and you could hear things scratching to get in where we were. Down in the dark of the temple....I think we were still in the temple....it was hard to tell how much time passed. We were down there so long our hunger came and went, and the sobbing of my fellows was slowly replaced with a realization that we were already dead....dead and dying.

We heard some more commotion and some light appeared under the door to our cell. We thought our captors had returned, but instead this band of heroes burst in. They cut our shackles and fed us. There were 5...no 6 of them. We were freed by a foreign swordsman, an axe-wielding fighter, a holy man of Lathander, an Elven lass, a human who kept disappearing, and another guy who looked more like us, but always had a torch in hand. They wouldn't let us leave, but they did take care of us. The Lathanderite healed some of our wounds. After our saviors had rested some they led us to another room where we were able to arm ourselves somewhat and they lead us out of the place.

For some reason they felt they had to go back into that cursed place. Gawd bless them and protect them from the evils they are surely bound to find.
