This post is somewhat of a placeholder as we need to describe the goings-on for this session. Cloaked One, Gutboy, and Sir William were once again reunited, this time finding themselves thrust into the Dark Well in Ravenloft. Much slaying ensued, including the temporary deaths of most of the party at the hands of an Elder Frost Giant. In addition, we fed a corpse to a Balor, which definitely caused us to lose some humanity.

This session we used Ventrilo to have headset communications instead of typing. All worked great, except for my mic could not speak. Just hearing everyone talking made the experience a million times better. We had not played in a long time, and everyone was excited. Next time I have to get the mic speech going. As usual, Gutboy and Sir William died in the Elder Frost Giant encounter, and Cloaked One did not. Sir William used his glib tongue to acquire an NPC. She is still without any weapons, but a cleric/rogue is useful, especially at finding traps. We all advanced two levels, and our journal is filled with all kinds of quests. The Ravenloft module was rated high, and it is the best we have used so far. We plan to play again soon. I was idle twice during the night. Once I was caught in stealth mode, which I mistook for being encumbered and spent 10 minutes using our new NPC as a pack animal until I realized I had mistakenly entered stealth mode. I was again idle when I spilled 2/3 of my pumpkin beer all over myself and the dog. Rob obviously sent his spill skill cross the wire, over to me.
The NPC also changes hands as far as who is her “master”; hence she has the unofficial nickname of Sue the Boot.
