Session #108: Babilar Expedition Continued

 [run and written up by Jacob--thanks for running this game!]


This adventure took place on/around 1/13/24, about 5 days after the initial expedition to Babilar. Occupied with some trade and negotiations, Durham and Pako were unable to join the rest of the crew in their explorations, and so the following crew set forth into Babilar once again, in search of adventure.


Najm (MU7)
Bart (MU9)
Gan (F7)
Fa Min (E4)
Demitrytus (F2)
Heijo (MU7)



Finally returning 1/27/24, nearly four weeks after their initial departure from the docks of Cothon-Gadeed, after unloading several new crates of goods the crew made their way to their own beds, and their favored watering holes. It was there that Pako and Fa Mei found themselves at the bottom of several cups, regaling the patrons there with stories of a strange city made of stone spires jutting straight up out of the water, no proper land in sight! With strange, friendly, folk who seem to just sort of live life day to day, not keeping many possessions, and dangerous depths. Noting especially that the adventuring crew’s last foray into the depths returned with several of the party barely able to stand, much less help with the sailing, for several days! Even still, they were all smiles and excitement when they returned.


The Lucre

(note that the gp/ep/sp are foreign currency and would need to be changed to dinars/etc if they are to be used in Cothon-Gadeed)

  • 120 shiny platinum coins
  • A fairly large set of surgical tools, well maintained but certainly not new (worth ~50 dn)
  • The Adventurer's Guide to Traversal  (a spellbook)
  • A partial water bending scroll (taken by Fa Min)
  • Two heavens as one, the lesser forms (a fechtbuch)
  • A lizard skin gourd full of a slick, oil like, substance (magical)
  • A set of lockpicks, a small file, small mirror, narrow-bladed scissors, and a small pair of pliers; ie: thieves tools (magical)
  • A fairly ornate bottle of a murky, reddish color. The cap is in the shape of the head of Kir (magical)

  1. Bart has eyes on those thieves tools ... Gan has eyes on the fechtbuch ... would that be amenable to our crew?
