A game was
played! We were able to get four players together and do an epic game at
twentieth level one Saturday night. We had an evoker wizard named Catra, Holy
Mojo the firbolg oath of the ancients paladin, Train the kobold eldritch
knight, and Sohai the earth genasi life cleric. The adventure was a simple one,
the cloud giants the local town would trade with had gone silent. Having dealt
with may odd threats over the years the party was sent to find out and take
care of the cause of the cloud giants’ problems.
They rode a small flight craft
to the gate house among the clouds and mountain peaks to find a pit fiend
waiting for them with an erinyes. The pit fiend’s fear abilities were nullified
by Holy Mojo and his paladin anti fear aura supplemented by his holy avenger.
The group started strong with good attack spells and the fighter having four
attacks each round. The pit fiend got off a few good rounds of attacks as well
as a fireball while the erinyes took shots at each of the party members,
inflicting repeating poison damage. Train summoned small elementals known as
dust mephitis, two attacked the erinyes and the other two blinded her by
spitting dust in her face. The pit fiend fell to the party’s hands, yelling
something about a master as he fell to ashes.
A few moments later a gargantuan
black dragon landed on a floating platform and threatened the party with a roar
and taunts. He flew over to the group and caught as many people as he could in
his breath weapon, a cone of corrosive acid. The party did not like this one
bit and brought out more firepower. He did not last long at all.
The party
picked themselves up and traveled further into the giant city. They made an
educated guess and found where the giants were being kept, the old giant prison
under ground. They found an oversized many columned room with big metal double
doors with a titan guarding them. They sweet talked the titan and he let them
into the room with his master in it… a colossal sized red dragon lording over
chained giants.
The party took this moment to assess their options. Catra used
the Staff of the Ancient Magus and turned her meteor swarm into a frost meteor
swarm, bludgeoning the fire dragon in the face. The party got caught in the
dragon’s breath weapon, taking massive damage and fear started creeping within
the group. Everyone unloaded everything they had into the dragon, Mojo
attempted to banish the dragon multiple times, Train gave the party advantage
on most of their rolls to hurt the dragon or gave the dragon disadvantage on
its saving throws, Catra dropped a frosty sunbeam as well as a few finger of
death spells into the beast, and Sohai used mass healing word to save the day
when the group and hit points were suffering. The beast succumbed to its many
aggravated wounds to its tail and loins, falling and managing not to land on
any of the party or surprised giants. They took the dragon’s head to the titan,
and on seeing its master dead the titan fled, polymorphing into a dragon and
flying away.
