Session 10 - Bear Hunt and Side Quests

With Brennan busy preparing the teleportation circle, the heroes took on local jobs in Nanaze.

Summary

  • The heroes woke early and headed to the village, leaving Ariameia and Brennan at the house
  • At the “Sam Smith & Britney Spears” shop (yes, really), they asked about crafting weapons and armor from kitin plates — far too expensive. A bribery attempt also failed.
  • Shopping at “Scrolls R Us” — Theros traded a Wand of Prestidigitation for 3 Potions of Greater Health
  • At “The Questionable Content” tavern, found a job posting board. Theros grabbed three quests:
    1. Kill an infected bear
    2. Find and kill terrorizing goblins
    3. Investigate the cemetery at night
  • Headed to where the bear was spotted
  • Purple fog appeared, and trees and flowers glowed with purple dust that caused poison damage on contact
  • Found the bear resting — patches of fur missing, purple veins bulging across its body
  • Dristuul climbed a tree while Korin approached. The bear awoke enraged.
  • The fog was denser near the bear, affecting both Korin and Dristuul
  • Korin was critically wounded by bites
  • Theros used Dissonant Whispers to push the bear away and Healing Word on Korin
  • The bear kept charging back — this painful cycle repeated for 3 rounds
  • The party eventually defeated the beast
