After the disappointing length of last session, I scheduled a little bonus session for later in the week, and luckily, almost everyone (plus one, so we evened out to the same number) could make it. In addition, Benton was hard at work last week adding Mandrakes to the Incunabuli Managerie. It's some good stuff. They do less straight up damage than my interpretation, but they are no less punishing to fight, as you will see.

It was a very short session this week. People were late, and I was onboarding a new player, so the entire session was like 40 minutes. That's fine, it was still fun and I was happy to at least have the opportunity to introduce the new characters.
Ah well, nonetheless. Here's the link to the last Post-Session Report.

Session 3 saw the first use of a creature I designed, and subsequently, the first PC death of the campaign. To be honest, I did not expect it to be so close, but we nearly had a TPK. As always, this session recap is set on Incunabuli's the Coast, and starts in the little hamlet of Bermish, around five days south of Boltthwaite Lake.

After I wrote about my thoughts on Arden Vul, I put the fate of the campaign up to a vote: Continue in the doomed world we have created or set forth and venture on Incunabuli's The Coast.
I suppose by the title you can tell how they voted.
For the past few weeks I've been hard at work writing up a campaign set around Lake Boltthwaite in Firlund. It's far to the north, and people are aware of the various bugaboos and the continuous onslaught of the Other. I'm quite enjoying myself. It's nice to get a change of pace from my usual campaign. Normally, I throw together a hexcrawl and my players romp around until I'm bored, but with the Coast already very well-mapped, it's actually very easy to convert it into a pointcrawl, which is surprisingly something I've never tried before... Exciting!
Anyways, I won't bore you with the details, least of all because I know that at least one of my players reads everything I write, and I don't want to spoil too much for her. So... without further ado:
