Zafoot's Rescue
| Session Date: September 21, 2002 | Next |
| This mini adventure occured while the party was in the underdark battling strange drow forces. ZaFoot was with the party after defeating the demons and devils on the hidden island in the Underdark. Foolishly he rushed in to search a treasure chest for traps and found one, detonating it immediately by touching the chest. ZaFoot disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Unknown to the party, at least until they cast a few detection and location spells, ZaFoot was teleported to the 6th level of the Nine Hells.
Dan Chinnery, the player for ZaFoot, now turned DM, having to prepare an appropriate castle and home to the Pit Fiend that "trapped" him, and to prepare the adventure that the remaining party would set out on to RESCUE ZAFOOT.
This is that story....
Appearing in order of their initiative:
Phenon: Shannon Rysewyk
Mardon: Paul Pichette
Dunar: Dan's Wizard - run by the group
Ember: Seth Hanson
Dred: Dale Shephard
Phenon zeroed in on ZaFoot's location using spells to gain information from Phaltus. Phenon could see ZaFoot in a hot and steamy place, chained to a wall, held captive. Hmmm, the 6th level of Baator. That could be a challenge they thought. The group prepared for the trek. Needing more magic and more equipment, they worked day and night, knowing that this was an important mission, and that time was of the essence.
Three months later they finished making their new magic items for the adventure. They could only hope ZaFoot was still alive.
To the 6th level they went. They landed in a brown land, with no vegetation, and dull red skies. A quick Discern Location told them that ZaFoot was about 60 miles in "that" direction.
Wind walk brought them there quickly. As they neared the location, they saw a castle atop a large stone mountain. The castle looked funny. The outside walls seemed really short.
Mardon cast an Invisibility Sphere. With spells and magic equipment, the party flew toward the top, staying close to Mardon to maintain their invisibility.
They saw a ten foot castle wall, about 150 feet wide. On top of the walls were numerous goblinoids and giants. All seemed well, there was no alarm, but no one could find the door or gate in the wall. They flew alog the wall and around the right corner.
Suddenly, the silence was broken by humanoid voices along the wall top. They had been spotted. Looking up, the wizards could see orge hands pointing over the wall toward their locations. Mardon and Dunar opended fire with lightning, magic missles, and fireballs. Ember rained arrows on one of the giants dropping it. Phenon and Dred headed for the wall top to land and engage the enemy.
The enemy fired back with multi arrowed balistea, Dunar was hit but continued on. giants rushed forward to engage Dred and Phenon. Phenon laughed and drew his Hammer of Thunderbolts. Boom boom boom went the the giants on the corner. Ember continued to rain arrows and the wizards fired magic missles.
The corner of the castle wall was being secured as Phenon and Dred swung on. Ember, Mardon, and DuNar began to move up.
A stairwell was discovered in the corner. Dred open the trap door and all descended quickly.
This concluded the first night of this two night adventure.
