Man named Califron called to us in our minds. He and his companion, Origus, were traveling together. Califron got captured. He found himself trapped in the lair of a brass dragon named Yolagan.

Found a body, ran out of food and water. Hand reaching in a certain direction.
We found a crack in the canyon walls.

Crystal bridge + stone platform, doors of glass and brass.

Used Mage Hand to open the door. There is a blue glow all around inside. We see stairs up. Glass box on right side (later we learned it was an elevator).

The whole area is pristine and advanced, maybe related to far realm / gith. Maybe abandoned.

Statue: female knight with great sword, looks like an elongated elf.

We found water with algae. This is foreboding.

We meet with a potential employer at a dusty warehouse owned by the
Couatl Company. We had seen a poster.

We are brought into a private office to meet with Jamishka.

He wants to offer us a contract. He gives us the history of a town called Oztocan.

Recently, the town started mining a new mineral.

It's where he's from. He cares about it.

But he removed an item from the town. Then bad things happened. He shows us the obsidian shard. It's a couple feet long. He wants us to return it.

This requires 2 things -
1. Take the object to Oztocan.
2. Locate the proper place to return it.

Bad things have been happening. It's not the risk to keep it. It's not worth the risk for him to travel with it. He doesn't want to risk danger to himself, his family or his favorite town.

He knows that an employee of his vanished. He didn't give us (the module didn't reveal) a name.

He knows about a new shadow organization: Onyx Scar.

More history.

Leandro -

Relago -

I was super tired. And the DM wasn't perfectly clear. I pulled this from DDB.

Leandro Sedhar

Asking for Leandro around town leads the characters to the Giant’s Skull, a welcoming inn made of wood and adobe. Leandro has been staying here for the past few weeks.

Leandro (chaotic good noble) is a tabaxi—a Humanoid with feline features, including claws and a tail. He’s short and stout, with lush, sand-colored fur and thin whiskers. Tiny square glasses frame his amber eyes. He was born in a distant land but has been traveling abroad for nearly twenty years. He arrived in Oztocan a few months ago and is working on a play inspired by the town’s local legends. As a playwright, he often draws inspiration from history.
What Leandro Knows

Leandro welcomes the characters and takes an interest in the shard of Xeluan if they show it to him. He asks to see it more closely but refuses to touch it.

In the course of a conversation, Leandro shares the following information with the characters:

Earthquakes. “Oztocan hasn’t felt earthquakes in years, but quakes have become common in recent weeks. No damage has been done yet, but the quakes are getting worse. It’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.”

Rilago. “Years ago, an elf archivist named Rilago claimed to have proof of a giant’s tomb beneath Oztocan. Rilago tried to mount a full-scale excavation, but the mayor wouldn’t allow it. Rilago stayed in Oztocan until his disappearance a few weeks ago—around the time the earthquakes began.”

Tavio. “I recently spoke to the Tavio Solana, the mayor. He grew uncomfortable when I mentioned Rilago. It was Tavio’s father, the previous mayor, who refused to allow the excavation of Xeluan’s tomb. I don’t believe Tavio had anything to do with Rilago’s disappearance, but I can’t help but think Tavio knows something about it.”

Aminta. “Tavio’s sister, Aminta, commands the town guard. Rumor has it she was involved with Rilago romantically.”

Our rogue pulls a playing card off his fancy hat.
It is a giant surrounded by 4 smaller people. The giant is holding something up. The card is torn at the top. It is not clear what the giant is holding.

The object is imbued with magic.

Rumor: a man was carrying this object. He was accosted by bandits. There was a green glow. When he awoke. The bandits were gone, as though they vanished. He was still there, tied up. And the object was there, too.

The nature of the magic imbued in the object is wild, wild & ancient.

Our contract. We will gain full set of eleven chain in return for completion.

He offers us the use of his magical carriage. It is powered by magic but does have a driver.

We depart. It's about a day's travel. It's nighttime.

Arrived: Oztocan.

Vigilant Blessing: Lex
We interact with city guard.
Earthquake last month. (Don't recall if that was when they started or when the last one happened). He told us about the disappearance (of Rilago). There is a tomb under the city. Rilago is archeologist. Exploring tomb. Disappeared. No trace. Had some interactions with ex-mayor's children. Ex-mayor has 2 children
Tavio (m) - current mayor
Aminta (f) - captain of the guard

[ ] spent 12 gold buying information from city guard.

Distracted/sleepy. The rest of the players discovered...
Leandro

Distracted/

We agreed to become actors in Leandro's play. I was assigned baboon.
We travel to a tavern.
Giant Skull. Something about a blue glow.

We assemble below the theater.
It's cool under ground.
[Something illegible] new mineral.

Rilago - there is a buried giant tomb. It has buried treasure. Rilago discovered cave drawings. He made it into a map. Leandro copied the map. We copy that. Rilago was good friends (maybe more) with Aminta. The gang, Onyx Scar, joined the city guard.

Tavio was aware (of something unethical) and was covering for Aminta.

There are 4 suggested ways in:
East ventilation shaft or west ventilation shaft. Some climbing will be necessary.
Main entrance. Some disguises might be helpful.
Fountain / drainage basin (didn't write down more details).

We decided to attempt the main entrance. From the theater costumes Leandro owns, we can make reasonable disguises.

DM: make Deception (how good is your costume) or Perception (how well you can find good costume items).

Good roll: Percep 22

We travel to main entrance.
Guards carry obsidian weapons
We are in "entry chamber"
Slab depicting mountains
This is muster/marshall location. Miners arrive and await their full group. Then guards escort.

We are escorted. Statue room. Statue is missing the heart. Scaffolding.

Those who took a photo of the map with their phones agree on a direction. They choose the direction where there is a room called: Heroes' Rest. And we walk.

Burial chamber. Ghostly male. Ghost of Rilago. They "broke the giant's heart." I sought answers. Found nothing. Nobody would help. Tried both Tavio & Aminta. Ancient adventurers (don't recall significance). Asked about Onyx Scar and caster. We conclude caster may be an innocent hire. Was not part of the original Onyx Scar, at any rate.

Enter crypt.
The shards are most likely to be in the lab.
Caster: Adino.
Lab is on 1st floor.
Find the shards. Free their souls (the 4 adventurers?) by reuniting the shards with the statue.

Amina instructed city guard to become/join Onyx Scar.

The true 2nd shift arrives. We hear voices and suddenly running people wearing gear. We prepare for combat.

The dragon known as the Verdant Cloud, Verthandantalynx, had 3 children. They are now fighting for the territory in Phlan.

Her mate was (why were we told?) Vorgansharax.
Internet doesn't say Vorgansharax was the mate.

Q: What module... ?
A: If it it an Epic you are probably looking for the Season 1 Epic The Corruption of Kryptgarden. It features Claugiyliamatar (Old Gnawbones). Season 1 of AL also features Vorgansharax (The Maimed Virulence) and his takeover of the city of Phlan. One of the Tier 2 AL Myth Drannor modules also briefly features Verthandantalynx (The Verdant Cloud) as a quest giver.

Verthandantalynx (Verdant Cloud) had 3 children, 2 daughters and a son.
brother: Gwyr
sisters: Berdea & Verdian

copy/paste
Verthandantalynx (VER-tha-DAN-ta-links). The former mate of Vorgansharx, the Maimed Virulence, she is also known as the Verdant Cloud.

"Verdian"
Viridianantallax (Veer-id-eean-an-tall-ax). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax. Viridian is strong and uses his strength to intimidate lesser beings.

"Berdea"
Berdeanostia (Bar-dee-a-no-stee-a). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax. Berdea cares little for anything but making sure her next meal is nearby.

"Gwyr"
Gwyrddentuliar (Gwee-erd-en-tul-ear). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax.

Often, I will use brother and sisters.

The fighting of the sisters is wreaking havoc on the villages of the forest. Get them to leave, or kill them.

He's working for Gwyr. He will take us there. We let the kobold go.

We arrive at cliff face. Gwyr looms overhead from his cave.

We dialog.

At first he demands 3 uncommon magic items. Later, we persuade him (I don't recall what we said, DM: noted certain words) to accept 1 single magic item, the something Elf Blade. It is rumored to be found recently. We must return to our in order to gather information.

If we bring that sword, he will leave.

Elmwood
Rumors of eccentric archeologist, Corolla (clearly misspelled), rumored to have found something at ancient elven ruined outpost along Dranthor River, formerly owned by Acvalar Army of Cormanthor (elves).

We learn he used a boat which has returned with some of his expedition. He was behaving with a strange lack of care for precious artifacts.

We are an existing party. We were returning by boat from a job. Ran into storm. Ship needed repairs. Docked ship at island, in the town of Westphal. We've been awaiting repairs for 4 days.

We have learned some information about the setting.

Lady Drysen Israh is the queen of this island. There is another island run by High King Kinrock. Israh may have set her sights on getting that island. Her police/army is called Dara Dragoons.

In tavern. Bell ringing. Patrons stand like zombies and walk towards door. Door flings open. Man with wound enters. Runs to back door followed by 4 Dragoon guards. Outside it's all red light.

Sent owl. Owl observes groups of zombies and groups of Dragoon guards. The guards are searching for something, entering buildings. Owl listens. "We must find him, or face her." The zombies were in groups of 10-15, and so were the guards.

We rescued the wounded man, Captain Stephan. He had been on a mission to rescue Prince Olin, son of King Kinrock. We decided to help him. He needs to get off this island and report back to Kinrock. All the ships are burning in the harbor. He's got a backup boat in the northern town of Lanring. We have 11 hours to get him there and 10 more hours of night.

We ask him what's going on. Oh, Queen Israh is probably doing a blood moon ritual. It allows her to take control of all undead.

We decide the large groups of zombies and guards are too likely to discover Capt. Stephan, so we choose the sewers. After hitting a dead end, we decide to exit through the grate and make for a nearby gate. The closest gate is the main northern gate which is crawling with guards. Owl discovers another gate, a pedestrian gate, to the east. We go there. Sir Mancha puts Capt. Stephan on his horse which teleports 60 ft away, outside the gate. We then successfully talk our way out the gate.

We find the horse and Capt. Stephan. We decide we will head north, staying parallel to the main north-south road.

When we left off, we had encountered a small hole, through which we could see an encampment. The Bear went into the encampment. But that player is not present tonight.

We attempt to follow the trail of the goblins with human (townsfolk) captives.

We move on. We encounter a group of six Quaggoth.
C1 init 12

We kill 5. The sixth surrenders. We gain a little information.

We explore further. Door with green light coming through the crack. We open the door. 2 mind flayers (illithids). We attack. Tarenth gets grappled and stunned. Most of the rest of us get stunned at distance (only 1 round). We had enough allies still active that we didn't get too damaged. We killed one. The second tried to teleport, but Counterspell prevented that. We killed it. We kept 2 heads (bag of holding) in case we want to speak with dead.

In the room is a stone statue of a mind flayer with a brain in each hand. It wears a pendant. The brains move (change?) when we aren't looking. There is a glow of green coming off it. There is no magic. We detect the trace of teleportation magic.

The goblin/captive tracks end here. We find a closet built for and containing more mind flayer robes. We explore rooms.

Perfume, gem. - see loot

A door has a placard saying something like:
she of sacred flight and knows only the truth

We find a room with 2 prison cells. Under the trash on the ground a scrawled message:
3 monsters lead them all

We enter various rooms. One contains a gray skinned mind flayer. The usual ones have purple skin. She asks if we are there to join. We explain we got separated from our goblin allies. We attempt to get information. She shows us in her floating crystal a set of doors down a hallway south of the battle.
First door on the left.

Finally she offers information as to the destination of the prisoners. They went 3 ways. Some to:
Chishinix
Hashutu
Voalsh

Desk with letters in Undercommon.
Ink well - see loot

A mind flayer doing a dissection of a non human creature with a lot of eyes. We can't determine more. Also there are two 1-eyed creatures in that room.

We continue north. We find a large prison room.
My notes indicate we will start with a fight. I didn't write down what we saw.

The pile must appear on a surface that can support it. After 1 hour, the coins vanish, regardless of where they are. Once this action is used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Illusory Fashion. As a bonus action, you can magically change the appearance of your clothing and armor. You can change the style, color, and apparent quality of what you’re wearing, or you can make it appear as if you were wearing different garments entirely. In either case, the changes wrought by this magic fail to pass physical inspection.

We meet with a potential employer at a dusty warehouse owned by the
Couatl Company. We had seen a poster.

We are brought into a private office to meet with Jamishka.

He wants to offer us a contract. He gives us the history of a town called Oztocan.

Recently, the town started mining a new mineral.

It's where he's from. He cares about it.

But he removed an item from the town. Then bad things happened. He shows us the obsidian shard. It's a couple feet long. He wants us to return it.

This requires 2 things -
1. Take the object to Oztocan.
2. Locate the proper place to return it.

Bad things have been happening. It's not the risk to keep it. It's not worth the risk for him to travel with it. He doesn't want to risk danger to himself, his family or his favorite town.

He knows that an employee of his vanished. He didn't give us (the module didn't reveal) a name.

He knows about a new shadow organization: Onyx Scar.

More history.

Leandro -

Relago -

I was super tired. And the DM wasn't perfectly clear. I pulled this from DDB.

Leandro Sedhar

Asking for Leandro around town leads the characters to the Giant’s Skull, a welcoming inn made of wood and adobe. Leandro has been staying here for the past few weeks.

Leandro (chaotic good noble) is a tabaxi—a Humanoid with feline features, including claws and a tail. He’s short and stout, with lush, sand-colored fur and thin whiskers. Tiny square glasses frame his amber eyes. He was born in a distant land but has been traveling abroad for nearly twenty years. He arrived in Oztocan a few months ago and is working on a play inspired by the town’s local legends. As a playwright, he often draws inspiration from history.
What Leandro Knows

Leandro welcomes the characters and takes an interest in the shard of Xeluan if they show it to him. He asks to see it more closely but refuses to touch it.

In the course of a conversation, Leandro shares the following information with the characters:

Earthquakes. “Oztocan hasn’t felt earthquakes in years, but quakes have become common in recent weeks. No damage has been done yet, but the quakes are getting worse. It’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.”

Rilago. “Years ago, an elf archivist named Rilago claimed to have proof of a giant’s tomb beneath Oztocan. Rilago tried to mount a full-scale excavation, but the mayor wouldn’t allow it. Rilago stayed in Oztocan until his disappearance a few weeks ago—around the time the earthquakes began.”

Tavio. “I recently spoke to the Tavio Solana, the mayor. He grew uncomfortable when I mentioned Rilago. It was Tavio’s father, the previous mayor, who refused to allow the excavation of Xeluan’s tomb. I don’t believe Tavio had anything to do with Rilago’s disappearance, but I can’t help but think Tavio knows something about it.”

Aminta. “Tavio’s sister, Aminta, commands the town guard. Rumor has it she was involved with Rilago romantically.”

Our rogue pulls a playing card off his fancy hat.
It is a giant surrounded by 4 smaller people. The giant is holding something up. The card is torn at the top. It is not clear what the giant is holding.

The object is imbued with magic.

Rumor: a man was carrying this object. He was accosted by bandits. There was a green glow. When he awoke. The bandits were gone, as though they vanished. He was still there, tied up. And the object was there, too.

The nature of the magic imbued in the object is wild, wild & ancient.

Our contract. We will gain full set of eleven chain in return for completion.

He offers us the use of his magical carriage. It is powered by magic but does have a driver.

We depart. It's about a day's travel. It's nighttime.

Arrived: Oztocan.

Vigilant Blessing: Lex
We interact with city guard.
Earthquake last month. (Don't recall if that was when they started or when the last one happened). He told us about the disappearance (of Rilago). There is a tomb under the city. Rilago is archeologist. Exploring tomb. Disappeared. No trace. Had some interactions with ex-mayor's children. Ex-mayor has 2 children
Tavio (m) - current mayor
Aminta (f) - captain of the guard

[ ] spent 12 gold buying information from city guard.

Distracted/sleepy. The rest of the players discovered...
Leandro

Distracted/

We agreed to become actors in Leandro's play. I was assigned baboon.
We travel to a tavern.
Giant Skull. Something about a blue glow.

We assemble below the theater.
It's cool under ground.
[Something illegible] new mineral.

Rilago - there is a buried giant tomb. It has buried treasure. Rilago discovered cave drawings. He made it into a map. Leandro copied the map. We copy that. Rilago was good friends (maybe more) with Aminta. The gang, Onyx Scar, joined the city guard.

Tavio was aware (of something unethical) and was covering for Aminta.

There are 4 suggested ways in:
East ventilation shaft or west ventilation shaft. Some climbing will be necessary.
Main entrance. Some disguises might be helpful.
Fountain / drainage basin (didn't write down more details).

We decided to attempt the main entrance. From the theater costumes Leandro owns, we can make reasonable disguises.

DM: make Deception (how good is your costume) or Perception (how well you can find good costume items).

Good roll: Percep 22

We travel to main entrance.
Guards carry obsidian weapons
We are in "entry chamber"
Slab depicting mountains
This is muster/marshall location. Miners arrive and await their full group. Then guards escort.

We are escorted. Statue room. Statue is missing the heart. Scaffolding.

Those who took a photo of the map with their phones agree on a direction. They choose the direction where there is a room called: Heroes' Rest. And we walk.

Burial chamber. Ghostly male. Ghost of Rilago. They "broke the giant's heart." I sought answers. Found nothing. Nobody would help. Tried both Tavio & Aminta. Ancient adventurers (don't recall significance). Asked about Onyx Scar and caster. We conclude caster may be an innocent hire. Was not part of the original Onyx Scar, at any rate.

Enter crypt.
The shards are most likely to be in the lab.
Caster: Adino.
Lab is on 1st floor.
Find the shards. Free their souls (the 4 adventurers?) by reuniting the shards with the statue.

Amina instructed city guard to become/join Onyx Scar.

The true 2nd shift arrives. We hear voices and suddenly running people wearing gear. We prepare for combat.

The dragon known as the Verdant Cloud, Verthandantalynx, had 3 children. They are now fighting for the territory in Phlan.

Her mate was (why were we told?) Vorgansharax.
Internet doesn't say Vorgansharax was the mate.

Q: What module... ?
A: If it it an Epic you are probably looking for the Season 1 Epic The Corruption of Kryptgarden. It features Claugiyliamatar (Old Gnawbones). Season 1 of AL also features Vorgansharax (The Maimed Virulence) and his takeover of the city of Phlan. One of the Tier 2 AL Myth Drannor modules also briefly features Verthandantalynx (The Verdant Cloud) as a quest giver.

Verthandantalynx (Verdant Cloud) had 3 children, 2 daughters and a son.
brother: Gwyr
sisters: Berdea & Verdian

copy/paste
Verthandantalynx (VER-tha-DAN-ta-links). The former mate of Vorgansharx, the Maimed Virulence, she is also known as the Verdant Cloud.

"Verdian"
Viridianantallax (Veer-id-eean-an-tall-ax). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax. Viridian is strong and uses his strength to intimidate lesser beings.

"Berdea"
Berdeanostia (Bar-dee-a-no-stee-a). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax. Berdea cares little for anything but making sure her next meal is nearby.

"Gwyr"
Gwyrddentuliar (Gwee-erd-en-tul-ear). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax.

Often, I will use brother and sisters.

The fighting of the sisters is wreaking havoc on the villages of the forest. Get them to leave, or kill them.

He's working for Gwyr. He will take us there. We let the kobold go.

We dialog.

At first he demands 3 uncommon magic items. Later, we persuade him (I don't recall what we said, DM: noted certain words) to accept 1 single magic item, the something Elf Blade. It is rumored to be found recently. We must return to our in order to gather information.

If we bring that sword, he will leave.

Elmwood
Rumors of eccentric archeologist, Corolla (clearly misspelled), rumored to have found something at ancient elven ruined outpost along Dranthor River, formerly owned by Acvalar Army of Cormanthor (elves).

We are an existing party. We were returning by boat from a job. Ran into storm. Ship needed repairs. Docked ship at island, in the town of Westphal. We've been awaiting repairs for 4 days.

We have learned some information about the setting.

Lady Drysen Israh is the queen of this island. There is another island run by High King Kinrock. Israh may have set her sights on getting that island. Her police/army is called Dara Dragoons.

In tavern. Bell ringing. Patrons stand like zombies and walk towards door. Door flings open. Man with wound enters. Runs to back door followed by 4 Dragoon guards. Outside it's all red light.

Sent owl. Owl observes groups of zombies and groups of Dragoon guards. The guards are searching for something, entering buildings. Owl listens. "We must find him, or face her." The zombies were in groups of 10-15, and so were the guards.

We rescued the wounded man, Captain Stephan. He had been on a mission to rescue Prince Olin, son of King Kinrock. We decided to help him. He needs to get off this island and report back to Kinrock. All the ships are burning in the harbor. He's got a backup boat in the northern town of Lanring. We have 11 hours to get him there and 10 more hours of night.

We ask him what's going on. Oh, Queen Israh is probably doing a blood moon ritual. It allows her to take control of all undead.

We decide the large groups of zombies and guards are too likely to discover Capt. Stephan, so we choose the sewers. After hitting a dead end, we decide to exit through the grate and make for a nearby gate. The closest gate is the main northern gate which is crawling with guards. Owl discovers another gate, a pedestrian gate, to the east. We go there. Sir Mancha puts Capt. Stephan on his horse which teleports 60 ft away, outside the gate. We then successfully talk our way out the gate.

We find the horse and Capt. Stephan. We decide we will head north, staying parallel to the main north-south road.

When we left off, we had encountered a small hole, through which we could see an encampment. The Bear went into the encampment. But that player is not present tonight.

We attempt to follow the trail of the goblins with human (townsfolk) captives.

We move on. We encounter a group of six Quaggoth.
C1 init 12

We kill 5. The sixth surrenders. We gain a little information.

We explore further. Door with green light coming through the crack. We open the door. 2 mind flayers (illithids). We attack. Tarenth gets grappled and stunned. Most of the rest of us get stunned at distance (only 1 round). We had enough allies still active that we didn't get too damaged. We killed one. The second tried to teleport, but Counterspell prevented that. We killed it. We kept 2 heads (bag of holding) in case we want to speak with dead.

In the room is a stone statue of a mind flayer with a brain in each hand. It wears a pendant. The brains move (change?) when we aren't looking. There is a glow of green coming off it. There is no magic. We detect the trace of teleportation magic.

The goblin/captive tracks end here. We find a closet built for and containing more mind flayer robes. We explore rooms.

Perfume, gem. - see loot

A door has a placard saying something like:
she of sacred flight and knows only the truth

We find a room with 2 prison cells. Under the trash on the ground a scrawled message:
3 monsters lead them all

We enter various rooms. One contains a gray skinned mind flayer. The usual ones have purple skin. She asks if we are there to join. We explain we got separated from our goblin allies. We attempt to get information. She shows us in her floating crystal a set of doors down a hallway south of the battle.
First door on the left.

Finally she offers information as to the destination of the prisoners. They went 3 ways. Some to:
Chishinix
Hashutu
Voalsh

Desk with letters in Undercommon.
Ink well - see loot

A mind flayer doing a dissection of a non human creature with a lot of eyes. We can't determine more. Also there are two 1-eyed creatures in that room.

We continue north. We find a large prison room.

Hey there! Thanks for playing PO-BMG-MOONCA-POB-01 - The Joust of Roses today with me, Kurt Hoffstaetter, during Slot 2.

All characters earn the following:

Level Milestone
10 Downtime Days
1,000 gp (5,000 gp divided) -- on character sheet
Five Star Sapphires (1,000 gp each)
Woodcutter's Axe
Fabulist Gem
Saddle of the Cavalier

Woodcutter's Axe- now on character sheet
Weapon (Greataxe), Rare
You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

When you use this axe to make an attack against a plant (an ordinary plant or a creature with the Plant type) or a wooden object that isn’t being worn or carried, the attack deals an extra 2d6 slashing damage on a hit.

Fabulist Gem- now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon (Requires Attunement)
This glittering red gem is commonly found embedded in a ring or brooch.
While wearing the gem, you gain the following benefits.

Counterfeit Coins. You can use your action to magically create a pile of coins, worth no more than 100 gp total, in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of yourself. The pile must appear on a surface that can support it. After 1 hour, the coins vanish, regardless of where they are. Once this action is used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Illusory Fashion. As a bonus action, you can magically change the appearance of your clothing and armor. You can change the style, color, and apparent quality of what you’re wearing, or you can make it appear as if you were wearing different garments entirely. In either case, the changes wrought by this magic fail to pass physical inspection.

Saddle of the Cavalier - now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon
While in this saddle on a mount, you can't be dismounted against your will if you're conscious, and attack rolls against the mount have disadvantage.

We meet with a potential employer at a dusty warehouse owned by the
Couatl Company. We had seen a poster.

We are brought into a private office to meet with Jamishka.

He wants to offer us a contract. He gives us the history of a town called Oztocan.

Recently, the town started mining a new mineral.

It's where he's from. He cares about it.

But he removed an item from the town. Then bad things happened. He shows us the obsidian shard. It's a couple feet long. He wants us to return it.

This requires 2 things -
1. Take the object to Oztocan.
2. Locate the proper place to return it.

Bad things have been happening. It's not the risk to keep it. It's not worth the risk for him to travel with it. He doesn't want to risk danger to himself, his family or his favorite town.

He knows that an employee of his vanished. He didn't give us (the module didn't reveal) a name.

He knows about a new shadow organization: Onyx Scar.

More history.

Leandro -

Relago -

I was super tired. And the DM wasn't perfectly clear. I pulled this from DDB.

Leandro Sedhar

Asking for Leandro around town leads the characters to the Giant’s Skull, a welcoming inn made of wood and adobe. Leandro has been staying here for the past few weeks.

Leandro (chaotic good noble) is a tabaxi—a Humanoid with feline features, including claws and a tail. He’s short and stout, with lush, sand-colored fur and thin whiskers. Tiny square glasses frame his amber eyes. He was born in a distant land but has been traveling abroad for nearly twenty years. He arrived in Oztocan a few months ago and is working on a play inspired by the town’s local legends. As a playwright, he often draws inspiration from history.
What Leandro Knows

Leandro welcomes the characters and takes an interest in the shard of Xeluan if they show it to him. He asks to see it more closely but refuses to touch it.

In the course of a conversation, Leandro shares the following information with the characters:

Earthquakes. “Oztocan hasn’t felt earthquakes in years, but quakes have become common in recent weeks. No damage has been done yet, but the quakes are getting worse. It’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.”

Rilago. “Years ago, an elf archivist named Rilago claimed to have proof of a giant’s tomb beneath Oztocan. Rilago tried to mount a full-scale excavation, but the mayor wouldn’t allow it. Rilago stayed in Oztocan until his disappearance a few weeks ago—around the time the earthquakes began.”

Tavio. “I recently spoke to the Tavio Solana, the mayor. He grew uncomfortable when I mentioned Rilago. It was Tavio’s father, the previous mayor, who refused to allow the excavation of Xeluan’s tomb. I don’t believe Tavio had anything to do with Rilago’s disappearance, but I can’t help but think Tavio knows something about it.”

Aminta. “Tavio’s sister, Aminta, commands the town guard. Rumor has it she was involved with Rilago romantically.”

Our rogue pulls a playing card off his fancy hat.
It is a giant surrounded by 4 smaller people. The giant is holding something up. The card is torn at the top. It is not clear what the giant is holding.

The object is imbued with magic.

Rumor: a man was carrying this object. He was accosted by bandits. There was a green glow. When he awoke. The bandits were gone, as though they vanished. He was still there, tied up. And the object was there, too.

The nature of the magic imbued in the object is wild, wild & ancient.

Our contract. We will gain full set of eleven chain in return for completion.

He offers us the use of his magical carriage. It is powered by magic but does have a driver.

We depart. It's about a day's travel. It's nighttime.

Arrived: Oztocan.

Vigilant Blessing: Lex
We interact with city guard.
Earthquake last month. (Don't recall if that was when they started or when the last one happened). He told us about the disappearance (of Rilago). There is a tomb under the city. Rilago is archeologist. Exploring tomb. Disappeared. No trace. Had some interactions with ex-mayor's children. Ex-mayor has 2 children
Tavio (m) - current mayor
Aminta (f) - captain of the guard

[ ] spent 12 gold buying information from city guard.

Distracted/sleepy. The rest of the players discovered...
Leandro

Distracted/

We agreed to become actors in Leandro's play. I was assigned baboon.
We travel to a tavern.
Giant Skull. Something about a blue glow.

We assemble below the theater.
It's cool under ground.
[Something illegible] new mineral.

Rilago - there is a buried giant tomb. It has buried treasure. Rilago discovered cave drawings. He made it into a map. Leandro copied the map. We copy that. Rilago was good friends (maybe more) with Aminta. The gang, Onyx Scar, joined the city guard.

Tavio was aware (of something unethical) and was covering for Aminta.

There are 4 suggested ways in:
East ventilation shaft or west ventilation shaft. Some climbing will be necessary.
Main entrance. Some disguises might be helpful.
Fountain / drainage basin (didn't write down more details).

We decided to attempt the main entrance. From the theater costumes Leandro owns, we can make reasonable disguises.

DM: make Deception (how good is your costume) or Perception (how well you can find good costume items).

Good roll: Percep 22

We travel to main entrance.
Guards carry obsidian weapons
We are in "entry chamber"
Slab depicting mountains
This is muster/marshall location. Miners arrive and await their full group. Then guards escort.

We are escorted. Statue room. Statue is missing the heart. Scaffolding.

Those who took a photo of the map with their phones agree on a direction. They choose the direction where there is a room called: Heroes' Rest. And we walk.

Burial chamber. Ghostly male. Ghost of Rilago. They "broke the giant's heart." I sought answers. Found nothing. Nobody would help. Tried both Tavio & Aminta. Ancient adventurers (don't recall significance). Asked about Onyx Scar and caster. We conclude caster may be an innocent hire. Was not part of the original Onyx Scar, at any rate.

Enter crypt.
The shards are most likely to be in the lab.
Caster: Adino.
Lab is on 1st floor.
Find the shards. Free their souls (the 4 adventurers?) by reuniting the shards with the statue.

Amina instructed city guard to become/join Onyx Scar.

The true 2nd shift arrives. We hear voices and suddenly running people wearing gear. We prepare for combat.

The dragon known as the Verdant Cloud, Verthandantalynx, had 3 children. They are now fighting for the territory in Phlan.

Her mate was (why were we told?) Vorgansharax.
Internet doesn't say Vorgansharax was the mate.

Q: What module... ?
A: If it it an Epic you are probably looking for the Season 1 Epic The Corruption of Kryptgarden. It features Claugiyliamatar (Old Gnawbones). Season 1 of AL also features Vorgansharax (The Maimed Virulence) and his takeover of the city of Phlan. One of the Tier 2 AL Myth Drannor modules also briefly features Verthandantalynx (The Verdant Cloud) as a quest giver.

Verthandantalynx (Verdant Cloud) had 3 children, 2 daughters and a son.
brother: Gwyr
sisters: Berdea & Verdian

copy/paste
Verthandantalynx (VER-tha-DAN-ta-links). The former mate of Vorgansharx, the Maimed Virulence, she is also known as the Verdant Cloud.

"Verdian"
Viridianantallax (Veer-id-eean-an-tall-ax). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax. Viridian is strong and uses his strength to intimidate lesser beings.

"Berdea"
Berdeanostia (Bar-dee-a-no-stee-a). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax. Berdea cares little for anything but making sure her next meal is nearby.

"Gwyr"
Gwyrddentuliar (Gwee-erd-en-tul-ear). One of the brood of Verthandantalynx and Vorgansharax.

Often, I will use brother and sisters.

The fighting of the sisters is wreaking havoc on the villages of the forest. Get them to leave, or kill them.

We dialog.

At first he demands 3 uncommon magic items. Later, we persuade him (I don't recall what we said, DM: noted certain words) to accept 1 single magic item, the something Elf Blade. It is rumored to be found recently. We must return to our in order to gather information.

If we bring that sword, he will leave.

Elmwood
Rumors of eccentric archeologist, Corolla (clearly misspelled), rumored to have found something at ancient elven ruined outpost along Dranthor River, formerly owned by Acvalar Army of Cormanthor (elves).

We are an existing party. We were returning by boat from a job. Ran into storm. Ship needed repairs. Docked ship at island, in the town of Westphal. We've been awaiting repairs for 4 days.

We have learned some information about the setting.

Lady Drysen Israh is the queen of this island. There is another island run by High King Kinrock. Israh may have set her sights on getting that island. Her police/army is called Dara Dragoons.

In tavern. Bell ringing. Patrons stand like zombies and walk towards door. Door flings open. Man with wound enters. Runs to back door followed by 4 Dragoon guards. Outside it's all red light.

Sent owl. Owl observes groups of zombies and groups of Dragoon guards. The guards are searching for something, entering buildings. Owl listens. "We must find him, or face her." The zombies were in groups of 10-15, and so were the guards.

We rescued the wounded man, Captain Stephan. He had been on a mission to rescue Prince Olin, son of King Kinrock. We decided to help him. He needs to get off this island and report back to Kinrock. All the ships are burning in the harbor. He's got a backup boat in the northern town of Lanring. We have 11 hours to get him there and 10 more hours of night.

We ask him what's going on. Oh, Queen Israh is probably doing a blood moon ritual. It allows her to take control of all undead.

We decide the large groups of zombies and guards are too likely to discover Capt. Stephan, so we choose the sewers. After hitting a dead end, we decide to exit through the grate and make for a nearby gate. The closest gate is the main northern gate which is crawling with guards. Owl discovers another gate, a pedestrian gate, to the east. We go there. Sir Mancha puts Capt. Stephan on his horse which teleports 60 ft away, outside the gate. We then successfully talk our way out the gate.

We find the horse and Capt. Stephan. We decide we will head north, staying parallel to the main north-south road.

Most of the rest of us get stunned at distance (only 1 round). We had enough allies still active that we didn't get too damaged. We killed one. The second tried to teleport, but Counterspell prevented that. We killed it. We kept 2 heads (bag of holding) in case we want to speak with dead.

In the room is a stone statue of a mind flayer with a brain in each hand. It wears a pendant. The brains move (change?) when we aren't looking. There is a glow of green coming off it. There is no magic. We detect the trace of teleportation magic.

The goblin/captive tracks end here. We find a closet built for and containing more mind flayer robes. We explore rooms.

Perfume, gem. - see loot

A door has a placard saying something like:
she of sacred flight and knows only the truth

We find a room with 2 prison cells. Under the trash on the ground a scrawled message:
3 monsters lead them all

We enter various rooms. One contains a gray skinned mind flayer. The usual ones have purple skin. She asks if we are there to join. We explain we got separated from our goblin allies. We attempt to get information. She shows us in her floating crystal a set of doors down a hallway south of the battle.
First door on the left.

Finally she offers information as to the destination of the prisoners. They went 3 ways. Some to:
Chishinix
Hashutu
Voalsh

Desk with letters in Undercommon.
Ink well - see loot

A mind flayer doing a dissection of a non human creature with a lot of eyes. We can't determine more. Also there are two 1-eyed creatures in that room.

We continue north. We find a large prison room.
My notes indicate we will start with a fight. I didn't write down what we saw.
End session.

Loot
5 x 500 gp bottles of perfume
Subtle Mind Crystal to character sheet
Ink well: 280 gold
2780 / 7 = 397 gold each.

Hey there! Thanks for playing PO-BMG-MOONCA-POB-01 - The Joust of Roses today with me, Kurt Hoffstaetter, during Slot 2.

All characters earn the following:

Level Milestone
10 Downtime Days
1,000 gp (5,000 gp divided) -- on character sheet
Five Star Sapphires (1,000 gp each)
Woodcutter's Axe
Fabulist Gem
Saddle of the Cavalier

Woodcutter's Axe- now on character sheet
Weapon (Greataxe), Rare
You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

When you use this axe to make an attack against a plant (an ordinary plant or a creature with the Plant type) or a wooden object that isn’t being worn or carried, the attack deals an extra 2d6 slashing damage on a hit.

Fabulist Gem- now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon (Requires Attunement)
This glittering red gem is commonly found embedded in a ring or brooch.
While wearing the gem, you gain the following benefits.

Counterfeit Coins. You can use your action to magically create a pile of coins, worth no more than 100 gp total, in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of yourself. The pile must appear on a surface that can support it. After 1 hour, the coins vanish, regardless of where they are. Once this action is used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Illusory Fashion. As a bonus action, you can magically change the appearance of your clothing and armor. You can change the style, color, and apparent quality of what you’re wearing, or you can make it appear as if you were wearing different garments entirely. In either case, the changes wrought by this magic fail to pass physical inspection.

Saddle of the Cavalier - now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon
While in this saddle on a mount, you can't be dismounted against your will if you're conscious, and attack rolls against the mount have disadvantage.
