After the Freedom fight, Azazel left Havyk with an aspiration-inhale boon granting advantage on Perception checks to seek out demons. The group met Blastbelle/“Glassbell,” who blew open the center office door while Havyk and the others picked the desk drawers, finding a bag of 100 gp and the pink-handled dagger note, “Happy Vithyrex Day. Love, P.M.” A button in the desk opened the hidden sewer door, and Orval Finkus reappeared before the party descended.
storyBlastbelle states she is looking for the Graven Scourge. While moving through the sewers, Grease and Havyk gather mushrooms, Dallas lashes Orval’s beak with a whip, and the group scouts the outside of the lair. They follow a cloaked figure until they encounter masked witchborn sitting on patrol.
storyThe party follows the hooded woman, who collapses in front of them and is identified through context as Natasha Brand / Redcloak. Grease gives her a Boost mushroom and a healing potion, then Havyk tries the unresolved “unknown potion” on her. Natasha enters psychosis but remains alive at 2 HP, and Havyk carries her. The party then finds an alarmed satanic dungeon room containing a coffin with someone not dead but close, triggers the alarm, and continues after Grease feeds nearby rats.
storyThe party finds that many sewer and dungeon rooms have already been rummaged through. Blastbelle finds 300 gp and a skeleton key, then uses it to open three doors. The party finds Pink Pony protection contracts; Havyk stealthily hides the Pink Pony contract while Blastbelle takes other contracts. Daffodil bites Orval, and Dallas and Havyk set fire to a room of unsavory contracts before closing the door.
storyThe group enters a boarding room with goblin snacks. Orval pockets the snacks, Daffodil attacks him to steal them, and Grease recovers them. Dallas threatens Orval with the whip after he pulls his own out, while Blastbelle remarks, “Chains and whips excite me.” Grease searches beds and finds notes including one about being scared of “big jumpies.” In the next room, the group finds an injured elf on the ground, asks him for a map, watches Blastbelle smack him and Orval throw water on him, then keeps going. Havyk takes his fine clothing, the note “don’t wait up — P.M.,” and the Red Ledger. Dallas recognizes the Krampus mark on the ledger.
storyAs the party continues, Kaya sees a figure she recognizes and her vision goes black. Instead of her friends, she sees Salvatore Mentali, an octopus-like figure, who tries to shake her hand. Kaya refuses. Salvatore tells her to turn around; two portals appear, and Kaya chooses the one in front of her, returning to the group. Four giant frogs appear as the floor becomes wet and initiative begins. The group kills the frogs. Kuzon / Hollow appears, Salvatore becomes enraged, Kuzon attacks, and Salvatore disappears.
storyAfter 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.

storyThis session resolves Ragefort nonlethally, adds Thunderlungs as a rescued passenger, reaches Aleklot’s Rest, introduces Al Ivers and the counterfeit-scroll discount errand, and ends with the party paying for a three-star dungeon crawl through the Aleklotson Inn.
storyThis session moves the party from the paid three-star tour into the hidden master path through rat guidance and Maine’s memory alteration. The route reveals older loot, a teleporting rat named Heathcliff, Jeremiah Shadowplay’s Aboleth/void connection, dragon-grafted humanoids, and a living young black dragon.
storyThis session resolves the Aleklot’s Rest master path: the party survives two phases of dragon combat, Herman Winger dies, Jeremiah revivifies Morgan, Oskar and Jeremiah vanish through a void path, Ash is blocked by a mind-flayer-like figure, Ash kills the young green dragon, and Victor Shaw’s time-cache rewards the group.
storyThis session resolves the Aleklot’s Rest aftermath: the party handles Lawful loot declaration, hides the Ring of Absorption, learns more about Ash’s true tentacle-arm manipulators, buys a discounted Scrying scroll and caravan fuel from Al Ivers, finds an Aerobud near Bearfell, and returns to VQU for QUEST intake.
storyThis session was reconstructed from the Craig transcript, including both table talk and active play. Some names were standardized from phonetic transcript variants.
storyThis session was reconstructed from the Craig transcript, including table talk, recap material, and the full dragon-lair resolution.
storyThis session was reconstructed from the Craig transcript, including table talk, loot logistics, Ash’s vision scene, road travel, and VQU intake.
storyThis session begins the illegal void-dungeon scroll expedition: the party reaches a sea-battered cathedral linked to Djeebus and Paulus Levius, survives the causeway through Jonah’s prayer, passes the offering door, finds journals documenting Paulus Levius’s corrupted miracle economy, and loots the reliquary before sentries and thieves converge.
storyThis session resolves the reliquary cliffhanger: the party defeats Djeebus relic sentries, survives hidden Raider archers on the catwalks, rejects a late truce, kills two Raiders, stabilizes two others, and discovers the next two branches of the Paulus Levius cathedral: the pipe organ room and wish office.
storyThis session resolves the Paulus Levius Cathedral: Jonah refuses Paulus Levius’s debt/slavery demand, solves the black-white guardian puzzle, is judged as a possible Djeebus Paragon through how he sees his allies, receives divine gifts for the group, escapes the collapsing cathedral, then loses Dhaz to Yuri Pelosh and the Stormcall Troopers before the remaining party is pulled into Vithyrex’s maze.

storyThis session was reconstructed from the Craig transcript, including pre-session table talk, Paulus Levius finale, post-dungeon Lawful confrontation, Vithyrex cliffhanger, and Power Nine holiday/lore discussion.
storyThis session begins the Vithyrex Maze proper: the party explores trap-heavy corridors, finds boon books and romantic magic items, meets Aizan, discovers the roaming eye hazard, is split by maze effects, and learns that four missing heart segments are required to open the purple exit portal.
storyThis corrected 02/19 session continues the Vithyrex Maze rather than the later Enemy/Gravenhurst fallout. The party remains split, pursues four heart pieces, meets Vic Vaurr and Vala Gearsprocket, learns Braska lost a heart piece to a minotaur, confirms one heart piece from a dead gnome, and ends mid-combat with a cyclops after Morgan’s first Corpse Explosion.
storyThis corrected 02/26 session continues the Vithyrex Maze from the cyclops cliffhanger. It adds wall-breaking maze navigation, Vic’s mirror-dagger trial and Dagger of Hunger, Timonos Truthstriker’s direct entrance, Timonos Truthstriker’s Journal from Ignotus, Jonah’s alliance with dragonborn carrying a heart piece, Arthur’s return as a Maine-variant, and the end-state split between Arthur’s heart piece and the dragonborn heart piece.
storyThis session continues the Vithyrex Maze with all factions active: Ash and Maine aid Arthur against dragonborn and Castro, Vic and Morgan fight Timonos Truthstriker, Jonah builds a small party with Vala, Helga Wingkin, Valbrant, and Podon Xopip Kelbar Lokas, Ash is displaced to Drow’s cell block, Morgan wins a Vithyrex temptation and gains both a heart piece and Dragon Claw, while Granny loses another heart piece by choosing a severed arm.
storyThis session completes the Vithyrex Maze escape and corrects prior blended summaries: Arthur gives the major MAI/Malevolus Krane/Castro exposition in the safe room, Maine reads Timonos Truthstriker’s Journal, Morgan ignores Jeff and rejoins, Ash suffers permanent max HP loss after Timonos Truthstriker crashes through, Vic escapes by ramming through a wall, and the mass portal deposits everyone at Bones’s cemetery.
storyThis session was reconstructed from the Craig transcript, including maze exploration, trap resolution, boon-book reveals, NPC encounters, and end-state objective discovery.

storyThis session was reconstructed from the corrected 20260312 Craig transcript and should replace any prior blending of 03/12 with later Gravenhurst fallout.
storyThis session starts the post-Maine-arrest roster rebuild: Elmyra/Prism joins as temporary leader, Oskar returns from failed Aboleth challenge, Gemma gives Gravenhurst intelligence, Jonah clashes with Djon Charleston’s Djeebus donation movement, the group sees or hears of Nick Kremp alive despite remembering his death, and a new Castro-hunting infernal enters the orbit.
storyThis session moves the post-arrest party from Gravenhurst toward the Nick/I.J. farm mystery: they turn in Paulus Levius’s Death Mask and Cloak of Billowing for QUEST value, Jonah receives the Crown of Thorns from Djon Charleston’s movement, Sending to I.J. gives a route, Morgan is possessed by a troll spirit after Vic triggers a corpse, Katrine Draxler fines Morgan, and the party reaches Root Barrel Farm where Nick Kremp appears alive.
storyThis session continues from Nick’s suspicious Root Barrel Farm appearance. Orval Finkus gives a missing-dragonborn job, Nick fails several identity checks, the party rescues the Black Wingkin from Mortellus/Aria Vayne’s necromancer chapel, learns Gertie/Duskborn/mass-resurrection-scroll lore, returns one dragonborn, then encounters VQU students Zetch, Ellenthyra Mew, and Nell Quiv arguing over cave loot before heading toward the next dragonborn lead.
storyThis session resumes at the cave with the VQU student trio guiding the party. The group clears a gnoll ambush, recovers Madame Batdorf’s soul-charm loot, finds a Lloyd-corrupted owlbear egg, then accidentally drops Jonah and Elmyra into a lower boost-contaminated cavern where goblins identify the settlement as New Goblin City and boosted phase spiders begin reacting to Elmyra’s amplified command.
storyThis session resolves the boosted phase spider cliffhanger under the cave. Vic Vaurr becomes boost-poisoned and drops, Zetch saves him with a potion, Hugo joins the fight directly, Jonah keeps the party alive, and Elmyra clears multiple spiders with chaotic sorcery. Afterward, the party learns New Goblin City has Moe Dimoggio collectors, Emrys-worshiping Emrites who receive Wingkin, and a lawless center market.

storyThe session resumed with Ash downed near the bridge and Castro attackers still active. Castro eldritch blasting knocked Ash into the runoff water, giving him two death failures before Jonah and the others stabilized the line. Jonah delivered major healing, Ash survived the water and hauled himself back up, Vic threw bodies and pushed forward, Morgan and Elmyra continued blasting, and Valara killed fleeing Castro while urging everyone toward the sewers.
storyThe second phase of Maine’s trial began with a Lawful psychoanalyst clinically questioning whether Maine should be considered responsible, a victim, unstable, a state asset, or a political liability. Maine tried to frame himself as more than an asset and pushed back against loaded questions, especially the proposed psychoanalysis or mind-probe that would read his brain for useful information.
