The Dwarves investigate an ancient vault and deal out some rough justice.
We have a trait vote and then a Duel of Wits over what to do next, as we get back into character after a long break from the last session.
We try out the Duel of Wits mechanics for the first time to resolve the standoff with the goblins.
After some casting of the runes, the Dwarves go off to bring down the goblin chieftain.
The Dwarves work on their goblin smashing plans.
Flint gets a little greedy, Ulfkell berates his apprentices, and they all ponder what to do about an opportunity presented by a goblin.
Our Dwarves go to extremes to get information from the traitor and encounter a surprise while scouting for water.
A spy hunt worthy of John le Carre...
is not what this episodes is.
The Dwarves stumble and grumble while hunting down the unknown traitor or traitors.
The trip to Scoria Deep begins, Flint runs into trouble while scouting, Ulfkel runs into trouble retrieving some misplaced beer, and Fandral runs into trouble while drinking a beer.
The Dwarves continue their search for the missing keg and the missing Bruna; then the characters gain some new traits and reputations.
Ulfkel's greed for Scoria nog continues to cause problems, a scout goes missing, Fandral gets a mission from his father, and the Dwarves encounter danger during their first foray into the underway.
And don't forget about MonkeyCon next month.
A Cry for the Dying. A Riot with Swords & Tequila (well, actually, axes & beer). The Warrior, Flint, unleashes his Thundersteel on the Bloodstreets of Marl. Missing nog gives Ulfkell a Wounded Heart. And with Glory Calling, Fandral won't let this Twist of Fate, Turn the Tables.
Will Ulfkell succumb to greed? Will Fandral sway Hroar's warband? Will Flint find romance? All these questions and more in this episode of 'As the Beard Burns'.
The Dwarves continue organizing their great expedition. Of course organizing Dwarves is like herding cats. There is a challenge to leadership, the search for more beer, and getting our revered elders drunk. Enjoy.
Also, it's time to start thinking about MonkeyCon Two this October 18 & 19. Zircher's got the conplanner up (MonkeyCon planner); so, it's time for GM's to start posting their games. Swing by the forum for MonkeyCon discussions (Forum Discussion)
