Abomination Vaults – Session 11

  • The party heads down the stairs to level 3, where they find a hallway heading east/west with doors at the end of each.
    • A stairwell leading upward is opposite the stairs they just headed down.
    • They head up the stairs which leads to a dead end. They discover no path forward so they return to the 3rd level and head west
  • Beyond the door is a small mist-filled room that contains 2 Mist Stalkers. A brutal fight ensues, but the group is victorious.
    • They discover a secret door in the west wall leading to a closet containing:
  • The group agrees they may need to regroup on the 2nd level before continuing on the 3rd level, so they return to try and find a way to proceed through the dead-end stairwell. They find a secret door this time allowing them to continue.
  • They find a hallway leading North/South. They head north to a door…
  • Inside is a battle-wrecked room that contained the bones of a giant skeleton minotaur that slowly rebuilds itself in an attempt to attack the party. The group is able to defeat it before it fully reforms though (with the help of cowboy Nolam who rides the skull to keep it from fully forming)
  • Exiting the minotaur room to the east they find a large/long hallway.
    • There’s several exits from this room, but there is notably
      • 2 double doors to the north.
      • Another single door to the north as well that is glowing
    • The group goes through the double doors
  • This L-shaped room contains 5 alcoves with dioramas showing Albsalom being destroyed in various ways. They detect magic around the alcoves and wisely avoid getting too close as they head through to the exit in the upper-east side of the hallway.
  • Here they find what looks like a web-covered war room with a model of Absalom as it once appeared long ago. On top of the table is a spider-like humanoid who demands offerings for the ‘Ghost King’
    • The party tries offering gifts, but the spider-man ultimately summons 2 smaller spiders and attacks the party.
    • Compared to the Mist Stalkers, the party easily dispatches these foes
    • Treasure:
  • XP
    • New: 270
    • Total: 554
