Quarantine With The Classics: 5-28-23 Quick-cap
- Finalized discussion with Jynzert re the destruction of the Kuo-toa religious site, to wit:
- Bomb for the statue
- Poison for the statue pool, the fingerling pool, and the noble lounge pool
- Drow spy that could be rescued and would help with getting into Menzo
- Took a long rest at the now-defunct drow outpost, full heals while the gnome commandos brought in reinforcements and set a bunch of traps in the river for any drow that were foolish enough to come around for a counterattack.
- Planned how best to deliver the gnomish payload to the Kuo-toa targets
- Obtained travel food and wine from the gnomes, then a day and a half long trip through the caves and passages of the Underdark.
- Passed some sort of mushroom chamber, a few creatures, at least one drow patrol that shied off.
- Approached the kuo-toa shrine from the south, coming upon some guards unawares. The party immediately attacked using, in part:
- A very loud barbarian
- Several eldritch blasts, about a third of which missed and flew up the hall into the darkness
- A fireball that earned Tom R four Verms in one round.
- Reddit post on how loud a fireball is (not that loud the farther away you are, apparently!) https://www.reddit.com/r/DMAcademy/comments/9j4whs/if_a_fireball_goes_off_in_the_woods_and_there_is/)
- More Kuo-toa are coming from the north.
Here’s that clip I mentioned from Last of Us:
