The final DRW epic takes place in Wildspace and seems irrelevant to Kartak, so I'm just going to use some DTD to hit 20 and call it a day with him.

Traded portable hole to my own character Gus in exchange for the cloak of the winter wolf.

Still in Xorvintroth. Thayans are here, and apparently also the Tenebrous Creed, trying to free Father Lymic? Our job is to go around killing portals. We use some sneaking and some deception. Seems like the Thayans are being devastated by aberrations. Having a large winter wolf beast companion is not helpful. Think I'll rebuild again. There is a ridiculously optimized paladin/hexblae on the team who just destroys everything. Thank goodness, or we'd be in trouble. Goodness knows I don't contribute much. We face some really big bads, and we prevail. I use that Oil of Sharpness (to little effect).

Gave Staff of Striking to my character Bramble in exchange for a Cauldron of Rebirth.

Traded my Cauldron of Rebirth via Discord to a character named Merric Surefoot, played by KmartGuy Kyle M, in exchange for Skeggox, which he got from DDAL-05-09 (Durlag's Tomb).

Note: under current AL rules, can add a free feat from a limited list. I got magic initiate, for find familiar, so I can get that owl familiar I always wanted.

Szass Tam heads to Xorvintroth. Darlon Ma seizes the opportunity to betray him. The first step is to sever Tam's connection to his phylactery. While he's off doing that, we head his way to lend our support. Along the way we encounter Szass Tam pretending to be Darlon Ma. We're totally fooled. I guess they actually swapped bodies, which is why my Locate Creature spell was fooled too? It's very confusing. Anyhow, we catch up to Darlon Ma, but he looks like Szass Tam, so we attack him, and he thinks we're helping Szass Tam, so he attacks us. At some point he tells us the truth, and then we switch targets, although we're pretty much all fine with just killing both of them. After a couple of rounds, some kind of magical contingency spells go off, and Szass Tam disappears. Not much we can do about it. So... that's it. No death of Szass Tam. I guess he is cut off from his phylactery for now, but that doesn't seem like much of a win. He certainly isn't dead. Was it even possible to kill him? I can't really tell. Depends on how the adventure was written, I guess. Certainly our team wasn't up to the task. Most of the adventure was exploration, which seemed to have no real purpose except to drain our resources. And I did indeed use a couple of potions (greater healing, and invulnerability).

Character creation. PHB+Xanathar. I didn't realize Monster Hunter was a Xanathar subclass.
Shopping: Sell scale mail armor for 25 and buy hide for 10. Use that money to buy: 5 flasks of oil, tent, crampons, extra 2 days rations, bedroll, 2 waterskins, pouch, sack, tinderbox, iron pot, 2 tankards, 2 blankets, fishing tackle, mess kit, signal whistle, 5 candles.

Sold hide armor for 5. Bought chain shirt for 50.

Bought two more handaxes, and a battleaxe.

Purchased a second battleaxe, to go with my inadvisable but fun dual wielding feat.

Healer's kit, just in case. And another 20 arrows.

Threw chain shirt in the trash, I guess?
Bought breastplate -400
Bought axe beak - 50 (peer pressure)
Bought flask of holy water -25

Traded away my unused Robe of Useful items for Boots of the Winterlands through Fai Chen at the Phoenix Vusion Group online convention Spring Into May.

Wasn't supposed to be in this mission, but things got a little mixed up. Not my fault. Anyhow, I was going to run this eventually. Run into some dragonborn ghosts, then tiny little mindflayers. Nearly get killed by an animated statue. I guess we learn that some lost city of Dragonborn folks was trying to do something really dumb, and it ended badly.

As a trinket, I get the toe of a frost giant. Was that a necklace or something?

Old Goat sent us off to find hunters. Not clear where Kaspar is. We couldn't get our mounts down a cliff into the cave, which was annoying. Killed a nyogi, then its two pets ran off. We wander a nightmare city underground, things contantly playing tricks with our minds. We find a statue that seems to suck in magic, robbing one of our casters of a spell slot. So I smack it with a battleaxe, and a magic mace falls out. That was unexpected. Eventually we find evidence that all the goliaths and nyogi were slaughtered by some other enemy, which then comes for us. We run. Some random chance stuff, but we get lucky and make it out. The end.

We go back to the city of nightmares to plant a bomb. Nearly a team wipe with the first encounter, then some oddly easy stuff, then a big, fun fight at the end. Plant the bombs and run away. Some goliaths appear out of nowhere to join us. No idea how they survived. I think we got lucky with some wisdom saving throws. And I'm glad we got lucky, because I get the impression that with less luck we would have been pretty darn screwed, maybe fatally, or worse.

Bit of a miserable slog, really. 100% non-stop combat. Not a single moment of rest. Absolutely no RP or exploration. No use of any skills except combat. The first wave nearly wiped us out, and without being allowed to rest, that was kind of it. The DM chose not to kill us all, but honestly, we never had a chance after the first bit went poorly. One wandering DM/Monster who nearly killed us all, and one player who got to visit us, which was nice although combat is slow enough that he didn't get to do much. I'm still not sure why Kaskar Spearsong transformed into something with radiant damage and tried to kill us, or why we weren't allowed to kill him in retaliation. Also, Old Goat died, sad and confused. And even more goliaths died. Technically we won (because of the other tables, nothing we did to help) and it was still kind of miserable. Especially since her death was so pointless. And then a weird final dramatic moment where some NPC got to kill the last bad guy, just so he could look cool. And no one even knew who he was. Apparently some goliath from the very beginning of the season. Whatever.

Traded Illuminator's Tattoo for a magic campfire. Traded with my character Gus. He got the campfire certificate from DDEP10-00 The Great Knucklehead Rally.

New season 11 rules are out. I rebuilt Kartak to be a Hunter subclass instead of Monster Slayer. Also acquired a +1 battleaxe under new rules because I was level 5+ when the rules came out. Also spent 150 gp on three regular healing potions.
