  • Finnegan pulls out a couple rations and and casts healing word on all the unconscious ones, but they still look kind of out of it
  • Pillby wakes up from his sickness, immediately disregards the hidden sick folk, and gets Sfen to follow him back into the gemstone room, and he begins to attempt to persuade Sfen into helping him come up with a plan for everyone to mine out gemstones without hurting Krummok's feelings (since Krummok would more than likely destroy the gems)

  • Brynn and Pillby both have dreams about their gods, even though Pillby doesn't have a god
  • Brynn dreams of his god Sylvanis embracing and talking with Shantia, the god of harvests, his dreams give him notions of this winter at Ten Towns being extreme, unlike any other and seemingly otherworldly; he gets the pull that this is unnatural and needs to be remedied
  • Pillby had a dream of a whimsical man playing a lute (the god of knowledge, Oghma) with a blank scroll floating above him, who asks him to help out Brynn in whatever he's doing, and also speaks Pillby's true name (which horrified him), and he woke up with a newfound sense of purpose and respect for Brynn

  • The party decides to go and find the frost giant meeting place to a hill out to the west, and attempt to find out a location from the most western town of Ten Towns, Targos, to try and find out when the ritualistic sacrifices started that seem to be pushing Icewind Dale into a more cold and evil place

The text describes that a half-elf was "taken care of" by Torga's caravan

Note to Macreedus from Copper

In session 11, the party found a note addressed to the charred remains of Macreedus.

The text is as follows:

Macreadus,

I’ve had enough of this damned, relentless cold. I feel it creep into my bones, my head, my heart. I’m heading back to Ten-Towns for a decent meal and a warm bed. I fear this endless winter has numbed your mind, and any tinkerer worth their chains can see the Summer Star is a fool’s errand. Maybe without me here to incessantly complain to, you’ll finally snap out of your obsession.

If you truly insist on dedicating your remaining days to this doomed project, might I suggest that three is better than two. I considered telling you before, but you were particularly rude about the dinner I made last night.

May the light of the Morninglord protect you,
Copper

Games

Three-Dragon Ante

Rules

  • Three-Dragon Ante is played with 2-8 players.
  • The objective of the game is for the Dragon Slayer to slay all Dragons. If the Dragon Slayer dies, the Dragons win, at which point, a battle between Dragons to the death occurs, so one Dragon emerges as the winner.

Roles

  • There must be at least one Dragon Slayer and one Dragon. There may only be one Dragon Slayer.

Cards

  • The cards of Three-Dragon Ante have values for attack, health, and luck. Non-character cards may also require treasure if a Dragon plays them.

Character Cards

  • Each deck contains 6 Dragon Slayer character cards, and 12 Dragon cards. These cards will contain the attack, health, and luck for each player of the game.

Action Cards

  • Each deck contains 24 action cards that are played by characters on their turn in exchange for attack, health, or luck from their character.

Temporal Cards

  • Each deck contains 4 temporal cards that alter characters.

World Effect Cards

  • Each deck contains 12 world effect cards which alter the rules of the game.

Treasure Cards

  • Each deck contains 24 treasure cards which Dragons desire due to some of their actions requiring treasure, and Dragon Slayers have no use for.

Equipment Cards

  • Each deck contains 12 equipment cards which Dragon Slayers desire due to the boosts in stats equipment provides, and Dragons have no use for.

How To Play

  1. The character cards are shuffled in a pile, and each character draws sequentially. When a player draws a Dragon Slayer card and there is already a Dragon Slayer, that player discards the selected Dragon Slayer card and re-draws until they draw a Dragon card.
  2. Each player draws 6 cards from the pile of all other cards.
  3. A player will play up to one card from their hand.
  4. The game goes until there is one player remaining.
