69. () Even deeper mysteries were plumbed this week. What does the text in the second chamber mean, why the references to the Hyades, and what, dear god!, of the titanic corpses in the third chamber?

65. () Big things happened in tonight's game, sanity was lost and things were irrevocably changed. Great session in the Dreamlands, confronting the mixing of an ancient and a recent evil.

65. () Almost 3 weeks without a game 😱. Archie and Cassie find the camp of the person they are following but she has disappeared. What with somnambulant people wandering about the mountain and a stone age encampment made of bones in a forest outside a ruined and abandoned city, there's a lot going on for such a remote place.

@paragraf_13
För min del är det framförallt som gäller, som jag har spelat sedan det kom på 90-talet och fortfarande spelar. Sedan gillar jag också -spelen från och har alla, och har spellett de flesta åtminstone någon gång.

60. () - The last session in this campaign that started as one shot last October. The PCs bust out of the mine and fight the dwarven constructs in their mech! This ends in a tussle against a battlebot armed with twin chainswords. They shoot its legs out and slowly wittle it down before the Commander/Druid calls down lighting and destroys it. The blowback takes out the PCs mech too but they win and free the mine for the Drow to takeover. Epilogues all round.

50. () - All five PCs back tonight. They infiltrate the dwarven mines via the meteor tunnel and see what the constructs are up to. They find the big statue and get inside, there's a centurion in there and some spiders who take down the ranger, but he's soon back and they have the statue. The Druid is tempted to destroy but instead powers it up with lightning and they are mobile!

55. () Dealing with the fallout from having despatched an old enemy, and now a chase to Mt Lerion to find her ward. But what of the strange symbol, the chimes, the weird bottles? How can a place haunt a person?

50. () - An advance party return to the Dwarven mines, 9 months on. With the demon spawner disabled, the dwarven machines have triumphed and are now expanding out into the countryside around. This looks bad. The scouts infiltrate the base through a collapsed tunnel and find useful information, but they are spotted and must beat a retreat. The first ever campaign defeat I've witnessed.

49. () - A very fraught
Session 280 in which a major enemy is killed, 187 sessions after the first time. Decapitation seems rather more permanent. Now to undo the dangerous weirdness that she has created.

46. () A unusual session with no combat but a ritual is undertaken to banish the demons back to their realm, after a bit of an argument with the demons. And then all manner of loose ends are tied up before crossing back over the sea with the Dark Elves to their promised new underground lair, which seems now to be on fire.

45. () The two groups meet up and in a desperate fight manage to overcome the cambions, 3 PCs are down, but not out, and a prisoner is captured. It seems the Cambions don't want them to put High Druid heart in the demon flames. They say it will be bad for everyone, and it turns out they might be right. But can a demon be trusted? It's a quandary that can't easily be resolved, more investigation of the demon pit is required.

44/2. () - And then, having tithed to Nodens, dreams came. Archie and Cassie were in a wood. Wisely ignoring whiffling and burbling, they came across some Zoogs and discovered that being dreamers in the Dreamlands, they could affect their surroundings. Cassie accidentally gave Archie some nipple tassels, and herself a tail. Archie discovered he could understand Zoogs and made an important discovery.

44. () - There was a strange door in the temple that lead to an incongruous hotel. The hotel structure disappeared when it was ignored. It seemed to have something to do with the Windrush Ritual, even though that had been dispowered. And then, after performing a tale about squirrels to entertain the patrons of the White Whale Inn, to bed and dreams.

43. () - Back to my game as the vanguard descend into the cinder cone while most of the demons are engaged with a desperate assault by the forces of good. Will they be able to get to the heart of darkness before the light falls?

41. () - Archie and Cassie continue their exploration of Ulthar gaining more understanding of the Gods with a visit to the Temple of the Elder Gods. They get schooled in sigil making by a priest of N'tse-Kaambl but things are starting to get weird.

40. Symmetries () - In tonight's session Verity was sought in Ulthar and coincidentally much correlating of contents, a Warwickshire nursery rhyme, an Arabic inscription on a Damascene sword found in Hungary and inscriptions on a long buried chapel in Switzerland all point towards a common cause, but also an opposition between cosmic forces, or at least followers of those forces.

39. Symmetries () - The road from Dylath-Leen to Ulthar is mostly safe, and then screaming out of the sky, and old foe from the Moon. There is quite a tense battle but with a little help from the caravaneers, a triumph. That's the end of poor old Vredni, probably, as they burned his body by the side of the road. But you just can't tell. And then Ulthar, the hands-on mayor and the Cat General, who can be bought with quite ripe kippers.

36. Symmetries () - Having successfully engineered a way out of the paradox that was fuelling the ritual that was bringing Earth and some other place close together, by using a quirk of time in the Dreamlands, our dynamic duo set off for Ulthar to find the person responsible. They have a present for the Cat General, and are planning to see some sages along the way.

35. of Cthulhu () - Part 3 of my game set in Abbots Bromley with much goaty strangeness. Information was discovered that necessitated a visit to the John Rylands Library to consult the restricted tomes, and a meeting with a member of the Stella Matutina. As a result a ritual was performed, which put a stop to the strangeness, although many though already dead died as a result, and the prof now sports a small pair of horns on his forehead. Success!(?).

32. () - Archie and Cassie make great progress this week, visiting King Kuranes in the Dreamlands and find out not only how the Dreamstone works, but also how it can be used to send things back in time. Perhaps they can clear up the paradox which is powering the ritual that threatens to bring an Aethyr into Oxfordshire.
