lives on as mascot of VQU - former companion of a former groundskeeper
After Salvatore vanishes, the sewer begins to crumble and the group flees. Blastbelle and Orval both leave the group. Havyk tries to take Natasha, but she is too heavy and dead, forcing the party to leave her behind. Kaya pulls Kuzon through the sewers and sees visions of his past torture, including suffering similar to Xalaethra’s and an image of Ash. Havyk convinces Daffodil onto her shoulder after feeling intense emotions of missing Chaos. The party reaches a mostly safe sewer area, with Dallas taking rubble damage, then emerges into Gravenhurst to see the city under attack by a dead T. rex and another zombie thing.
storyAt the end of the session, two more Castro descended from the sky as Ash's void manifestation drew attention. Ash was attacked and dropped to 0 HP. Valara warned the group that they must keep the enemy from taking Ash; if they gain Ash's void manifestation powers, they can rip the void wide open and bring an ass-load of voidlings through.
storyAleron Bonapate enters Gravenhurst on skeletal Bowflex, revealing the VQU strike as spectacle and the true Castro capture operation as the gate breach.
storyA few days had passed since the courtyard incident, and Von Queef University had resumed its routines. Sort of.
groupVon Queef University currently has 76 linked character entries in the World of Jericha archive.
