wynnPart One: Sword & Sorcery & Retail (Oxford)
Marty, Matthew, Nels, Miles, Val'drin, Bambi
The Knights were briefed about a mission to Oxford to meet a mage who owned a bookstore, who had received a mysterious shipment, which had been broken open when he got into work that morning, and was filled with webbing. Mr. Broggon believed that the escaped creature was still in his basement, and had asked the Knights, as his ally, to come help him clear it out.
Arriving at the bookstore, Broggon greeted them and got them tea and coffee. Just at that time, another delivery was made and when Broggon bent over to examine the shipping label, a tentacle burst out and grabbed him, dragging him into the crate. As they struggled to free him, Bambi recognized the creature as an otyugh just as it broke loose. Val'drin managed to get in the killing shot and spoke to Broggon, who aired his suspicions that he was being targeted for his work with Shadow and magic, and that both crates had been sent from something called "PTC" on the label. He offered them some equipment that might help before they headed towards the trapdoor where the other crate had been stowed.
Below, they found the remains of the crate, and that a door had been busted out, the hall beyond it full of webbing. They followed it into a hewed out area that forked in two directions. Val'drin, however, walked right into a web. They were subsequently attacked by some little spiders, which they managed to kill.
They continued though the tunnels, running into some dog-sized spiders next. Nels and Val'drin managed to kill it, and Val'drin commented on how he'd prefer not to be the one who killed them himself, because Lolth took special interest in those who killed her beloved spiders. Under some webs, they found a large chest, which Val'drin picked open, filled with potions and a magic longsword enchanted with a haste spell, which Nels laid claim to.
They headed forward and found a bear-sized spider, which they immediately attacked, drawing the ire of some smaller ones as well. Upon killing it, they headed into a chamber beyond. It was full of what seemed to be egg sacs, which they found a way to set on fire. Broggon told them that he had had no luck finding out who "PTC" was, and they took their leave to grab some dinner.
