The newly formed party of adventurers left the city of Here in search of Tarix’s daughter. She was either taken captive or killed because nobody knew what exactly happened. The adventures walked for short periods of time for five days, eating on the move, and sleeping to get to the caravan which was torn apart and the princess disappeared from.
When the party reached the caravan, they found guards shredded, decaying, and missing limbs. The stench of death and decay lingered over the ravaged caravan. The armor they wore was ripped to pieces and dented beyond repair. Wrathale searched for any footprints that were out of the ordinary but there were too many footprints to tell.
Just a few moments later an Ettin came roaring down from the hills. Jack weapons drawn quickly charges at it and Reed and Tasen try to get close. Wrathale pulls out his Bow and starts shooting at the Ettin. He misses and the Arrow hits the ground. Xander takes out his spear and readies himself. Tasen and Reed both hit the Ettin but they don’t inflict much damage
Jack Takes his two handed sword and cleaves the Ettin’s arm off making the Ettin fall to the ground dead. Wrathale takes two scimitars and slices the Ettin’s throat. Then they hear oxygen release from the Ettin’s lungs.
The party then heads up into the hills where the Ettin had came from in hopes of finding the princess. They walk up the hill and there they see a giant iron gate and a cave next to it. They go over to the cave and look inside. Nothing is there but a robe and a few gems. They go inside the cave and pick up the items. Reed, Tasen, and Wrathale can tell that the robe is magical. Tasen is the only one willing to put it on. When he puts it on, it seems to shrink to his size.
(Not knowing how the robe works after he puts it on he tries to guess the command word and says, “Allakazam…?” “Zibbdwah?” “My name is Bob?” As soon as Tasen finishes saying “My name is Bob”, the robe starts to shine brightly with scintillating colors. Wrathale, Reed, Jack, and Bhass are now looking at Tasen like they are attracted to him. Xander however was shielding his eyes from the bright light. Tasen says “My name is Bob!” again and the robe’s magic turns off.
Everyone then snaps back to normal. Xander looked at Tasen and says, “Well that’s a robe of scintillating colors which incapacitates all who are looking at the person wearing it.”
“Ah” Tasen says in return. “But I think we should let Bhass wear it, since he’s the only one who wear’s robes.” Tasen then takes the robe off and hands it to Bhass.
“So what is the word I have to say to activate this thing?” Bhass Asks
Tasen replies “say, ‘My name is Bob.’”
Bhass says in return “Aright.”
Everyone then leaves the Ettin’s cave and heads toward the giant gate. When they get there, Tasen, who is small enough, just walks in between the bars while Jack bends some of the gate bars so that everyone else can get through.
They get through the gate and start to walk down a giant chasm. About two hours of walking later, Wrathale says, “I’ll go scout ahead.” No one seems to care. Wrathale scouts ahead for about an hour before he sees something off in the distance. He signals the group that he sees something and, he starts to run toward it.
Wrathale gets closer to the object only to find out it’s a bear with puss coming out of its injuries and chained to the wall of the chasm. It seems dead because it looks like it has been there for about ten days or more. Wrathale gets close enough to touch the fur and the bear starts to swipe randomly at Wrathale and hits him three times with claw, claw, bite. Wrathale falls to the ground unconscious. The Bear looks around blindly then lies back down. Everyone gets to Wrathale and sees the bear, but with Wrathale lying right next to it they know to not get any closer.
Xander uses his psionic powers to take control of the bear’s mind. Xander quickly says, “Everybody take Wrathale to the other side of the bear.” Jack picks up Wrathale and carries him to the other side of the chasm and sets him down on the Ground.
Bhass quickly runs over and heals Wrathale. Xander lets go of his mental grip on the bear and jumps over to the other side of the bear. The bear shakes its head in confusion then looks around with its pearly white eyes. Wrathale wakes in pain but recovers rather quickly thanks to Bhass’s healing. Wrathale gets up and walks over to the bear, out of range of its attacks, and pulls out his bow. Then he shoots the bear directly in the head.
The party starts to walk down the chasm farther. After about another hour, they reach a gate about the size of the other one but with giant wooden doors that are wide open. They stop and camp behind one of the open doors and sleep the night.
