Sx01 - The 'Party' Forms

The 'Party' Forms is the 1st session of the campaign. It is followed by Sx02 — Not an Adventuring Party.
This session takes place over a single day: Tetarti the 10th of Leontes. Notable moments of this session are Adrasteia rolling a Nat 1 to perform medicine on someone - this was the first roll of the campaign.
==Posttown Shenanigans==
Sat under the post at the centre of the village of Posttown, Oto (or Pr'Oto'Type) spots a Triton man and a robot dog attempting to steal from a merchant. In a random act of chaos, Oto approaches the two and helps the Triton man - this would turn out to be Khantos. They steal a number of mechanical pieces including one piece that has the symbol of an olive branch on it (Associated with Apollo and Athena). The pair then travel around the back of the tavern, before being captured by the city guard - though Khantos was able to hide the mechanical component in Ayleth's mouth. The two are then taken to the city hall where they are detained and waiting questioning from Ebian Hobblepot (known as Cassian at the time), the Mayor of Posttown.
MEANWHILE, Leoven, Rigani and Adrasteia go to the temple in post town, each praying to their individual Gods. (Leoven - Apollo; Rigani - Demeter; Adrasteia - Artemis). While in the temple they learn that the temple is used as a hospice for the sick and injured, due to attacks from the undead on the outer villages nearby. Adrasteia attempts to help one of the injured by rolling a medicine check - this results in a Nat 1 - the first roll of the campaign. The three offer to help with the undead problem and the chaplain at the temple sends them to the town hall to talk to Mayor Hobblepot about how they could help with the problem.
Hobblepot makes a deal with the group: if they to resolve the issue of the undead attacks, Oto and Khantos' crimes will be forgotten and they will all get a monetary reward. He notes that it is believed to be a curse from Hades.
SIDE NOTE: Hobblepot's attitude and general behaviour throughout their encounter lead Oto to be suspicious and not like him.
== The Road to the Crypt==
The group travel up to the crypt and on the road they meet Carban, who very quickly joins the party on their journey up the road. The group begin to get to know each other, learning about the different gods everyone worships.
==The Crypt of Heroes==
Outside the Crypt, there are civilian headstones, clearly it was structured in a way so that the average person would be buried outside and the greater heroes are buried within the walls. Adrasteia casts Speak with Plants and talks to the trees surrounding the graveyard, they say that there is something polluting the water in the area and ask her to check it out. Khantos and Adrasteia begin investigating the stream nearby and find it clogged up with a pile of rotting corpses which were polluting the stream. They pull the bodies out of the stream and on one of their persons Khantos finds a couple of pots of magic paint - these paints are able to create anything by painting it. The group is then attacked by skeletons, which are quickly defeated, and on their bodies the party finds papers with necromantic symbols lodged into their bodies - this is not divine magic, but arcane.
Outside the Crypt there are a series of statues of adventurers, looking more and more professional as they go back, with better and better armour - it seems to be a metaphor for levelling up. At the back of the room is a flight of stairs. On the lower-levels there were three possible paths: a path blocked by a cave in, an open passage to the left, and a door depicting two minotaur in front. Down the path to the left are two graves in the ground, with a statue of a dog between them. This is the graveyard of The White Wolves, a married pair of adventurers who famously adventured with their pet wolf. Immediately Oto approaches the dog and pets it, only to find a key in it's mouth which he immediately takes - this activates a trap, causing a poison dart to hit him. After this, Carban takes the two rings rested on the graves, which results in the dog statue coming to life and attacking the group. The dog is defeated and the party decides to rest in the crypt to recover from the attack.
