Notes
Started in Waterdeep, but I'll gloss over that. We went to Icewind Dale pretty quickly. Found the Red Wizards of Thay excavating Xorvintroth. We went around back and found one of those Nyogi tunnels, collapsed from the explosion. Used Wind Walk to breeze past the stone, up to the green glass walls of Xorvintroth. Then we smashed our way through over the course of a couple of days, with some magic and some hammering. The Red Wizards were alread in there, wandering around. We snuck around, explored a couple of buildings, and found a good place for a Harper safehouse. We had to do some work to set things up first. No combat. We did encounter some aberrations, but we talked to them and they gave us a belt of stone giant strength in return for allowing them to steal some anti-magic statues. Weird. We chose not to get rid of the poison gas egg things, because I thought that could be a useful resource, and it was easy to avoid. We did seal up the crevasse behind that room, so it should be ok. Story Award: Bond of Fellowship. Made friends with three harper agents: Amri Thistlebrick, Salros Eventide, and Tua. Story Award: Xorvintroth Base Security. You secured the hidden base against discovery by the Red Wizards and against being breached by wandering dangers. In addition to the minimum preparations, you also removed the magic-draining statues by letting the star spawn take them.

Magic Items
| Name | Rarity | Location | Table | Result | Counts? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Belt of Stone Giant Strength | Very Rare | From an aberration | true | ||
| This belt is made of dozens of writhing mauve tentacles covered in blinking eyes. The tentacles wrap around your waist and frequently squeeze you of their own accord. While wearing this belt, your Strength score changes to a score granted by the belt. The item has no effect on you if your Strength without the belt is equal to or greater than the belt’s score. Stone Giant is 23. | |||||
| Bracers of Defense | Rare | Found in the ruins of Xorvintroth | true | ||
| While wearing these bracers, you gain a +2 bonus to AC if you are wearing no armor and using no shield. | |||||
| Potion of Comprehension | Common | Gift from Harpers | false | ||
| When you drink this potion, you gain the effect of a comprehend languages spell for 1 hour. This liquid is a clear concoction with bits of salt and soot swirling in it. Comprehend Languages: For the duration, you understand the literal meaning of any spoken language that you hear. You also understand any written language that you see, but you must be touching the surface on which the words are written. It takes about 1 minute to read one page of text. This spell doesn't decode secret messages in a text or a glyph, such as an arcane sigil, that isn't part of a written language. | |||||
| Potion of Vitality | Very Rare | Found in the ruins of Xorvintroth | false | ||
| When you drink this potion, it removes any exhaustion you are suffering and cures any disease or poison affecting you. For the next 24 hours, you regain the maximum number of hit points for any Hit Die you spend. The potion's crimson liquid regularly pulses with dull light, calling to mind a heartbeat. | |||||
| Spell Scroll of Sending | Common | Gift from Harpers | false | ||
| I guess I can lend it to a spell caster in some future mission? | |||||
| Spell Scroll of Teleportation Circle | Common | Gift from Harpers | false | ||
