After the cold blooded murder of an innocent by Artura, in clear view of the party's Paladin, the party retreated to the safety of Lily's home, where the ritual is to start, so the party can be branded by the seal they stole. The party also gained some much needed rest, as some more turmoil has been found with Henny getting a mysterious letter from a strange man with a limp. Sir Ren's god has blessed him with great size and strength, but does not question his god's gifts, as he is now larger than any human.
Will the brand hold up to scrutiny, and will this alert the Queen to Ne;;'s presence in the city?

Lily has performed the ritual to brand the entire party with the power of Princess Nell's bloodline to give them access to the shielded part of the city, so they can infiltrate the inner sanctum and destroy the protective barrier and allow the standing army to attack the Queen's fortifications. But sadly, Lily gave her last ounce of energy to complete the ritual, and has left the land of the living! Now, even though the party is saddened by her passing, there are more pressing issues to deal with, as the illusionary spell that was hiding this place of power, making it look burned down, and dilapidated has fallen, and the true nature of the library is now unveiled for all to see, as they party rushes to collect anything of value before leaving. But something has found them first...
Will the party survive the feeling of death and decay that has found them?

Lily has sadly passed away as she finished her ritual to bestow Nell's royal seal onto the other party members, and mark them to have them all gain access to the energy shield protecting the Queen's sanctum. Also, with Lily's passing, her magics that were protecting, and causing the illusions on her library begin to fail, showing that her library is actually a place of power, and the forces of the Worm Cult are starting to descend on to them as they quickly take anything of value. But before the party left, there was a stench of death that caught up to them, A Lesser Death, that started a heated battle for survival, as the longer it took to defeat this spirit of death, the more chance others would find the Library, spelling defeat for the party.
Will the party defeat this lesser death before more forces appear, and will they escape with their lives?

Transformers RPG - BB&E Breaking Bots and Energon!
Monday May 20, 2024
Monday May 20, 2024
This time the group is a few members short, but also have a Special Guest, TREVOR has returned for a short stint with the group as Steve takes up the mantle of PRIMUS! The Transformer's god, and runner of the game for our players Trevor!, Zach, Jared, and Fabio as they take on the roles of well known Autobots Chromia, Wheeljack, Arcee, and Jazz as they take on a mission specially requestewd by Optimus Prime.
Also, check out our Merch Store, and let us know if you want something added!
That mission is for the bots to help their fellow Autobot Chromedome with the Beacon of Hope Project. A project to launch a secret rocket to Cybertron to alert the remaining Autobots that Optimus and the other Autobots are alive and well on earth, in the 1980's, fighting the good fight and they need help from home! But although the project is supposed to be secret, you never know who is listening, or flying by to sneak some information, so this mission is of the utmost importance to succeed!
So, as the venerable leader of the Autobots Optimus Prime always says, AUTOBOTS, TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT!

After the Audobots fended off the Decepticons, and saved Chromedone, they had to act quickly, and track down the Decepticons that were able to get away with key parts of the Rocket Project, along with tracking down the Decepticon bade where part of the VI interface was transmitted to. Here's hoping that the Autobots are able to recover the parts intact, and retrieve the VI program before the Decepticons are able to corrupt it and possibly learn the location of the Autobot home base, which would spell disaster for the Autobots!
So, as the venerable leader of the Autobots Optimus Prime always says, AUTOBOTS, TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT!

On our way to the Dwarven Resistance's hideaway, we heard information that Aravashnial is here! Excitedly, the party was making their way down, escorted by some dwarves. Along the way, Artura tried to delve his psyche into the book once belonging to the Lich. While delving into this item, the Lich's psyche fought back, and now Artura was unbeknownst to us, controlled by the Lich's mind. Once the party met up with Aravashnial, Artura, while controlled by the Lich, attacked, and tried to take out both Aravashnial, and Boren Rockshaper, the leader of the Dwarven Resistance.
Will the party fight and restrain Artura, or will Artura corrupt others with the worms of the cultists?
