| == Plot ==
| |
| [[Yumi]]'s band of thieves are tasked by [[Nisovin]] to steal an orange glowing Sun Key from the [[Spellblade]] [[Elf|Elves]]. Comprised of only three members: Yumi herself, [[Squinks]] the Keen Gnome Bard, and [[Gracias]] the Okagnoma Gnome Sorcerer, Yumi hires a [[dwarf]] [[Warrior]] as the party meat shield. The newly hired dwarf, named [[Bumbley]], is soon renamed by the group to "Dwarf Number Three," a name he accepts eagerly.
| |
| | |
| Nisovin drops off the party at the corner of the known map. Knowing the party must go "northeast-ish", Nisovin warns the party from traveling into the [[Glistening Caverns]] directly north. Distrusting the lazy [[sorcerer]], the party heads north to encounter a group of [[Kobold|Kobolds]]. Upon arrival, Yumi encounters Pete (later renamed [[Philhipé]]), and impresses him with his manners. In doing so, Pete tries to allow free passage through the cave for the party, but the [[Kobold Boss]] disagrees with the idea. Calling out Yumi and her party for containing a dwarf, hostile tensions grow between the groups, but are almost calmed by Dwarf #3's questionable characteristics. Tensions turned to battle, however, when Dwarf #3 revealed his name. During the battle, two [[Whirlwind Brothers|Whirlwind Kobolds]] and 10 universally aggressive [[Gemling|Gemlings]] appear, in addition to the Kobolds showing signs of rabies.
| |
| | |
| The Gemlings, posing little threat, are quickly destroyed by the Kobolds. Gracias flanks the Kobold party, and pauses to give Pete a hug. In doing so, Pete becomes non-aggressive to the party, and both he and Gracias sit out the rest of the encounter. Dwarf #3 is then infected with rabies by a Whirlwind Brother, while under the charm of Squinks. After the aggressive Kobolds are rendered dead or unconscious, Pete is introduced to the party. He is formally accepted and renamed [[Philhipé]] by Yumi, while Dwarf #3 is renamed "Kobold Number Four" to prevent further conflicts due to his name.
| |
| | |
| Philhipé guides the group deeper into the cave, to a large cavern full of [[Gemling|Gemlings]] and a very large gem in its center. Philhipé goes to lick the large gem, which his boss had told him to never do, but nothing happens. Then as Kobold #4 tickles the gem, it awakens and is revealed to be the [[Gemling#Gemlord|Gemlord]], which turns all nearby Gemlings aggressive. In the course of battle, the Gemlord grows arms and spawns more Gemlings upon being hit, as well as Amplifying Crystals that reflect its giant laser beam. The team tries various techniques to attack the Gemlord, including charming it and enlarging Kobold #4. Despite the spawning of many Gemlings, the Gemlord is eventually defeated and shatters into pieces, causing the surviving Gelings to turn passive.
| |
| | |
| After the combat, Kobold #4 cures his rabies by drinking water, and the group heads out of the cave and towards a bridge guarded by [[Nessi|Nessi the Bridge Troll]]. Nessi demands that each traveler pay a treasure card to pass, or face his [[Eaglebear]]. He grabs Kobold #4's Amulet of Bones and allows Kobold #4 to pass first. Nessi refuses to let gnomes cross, so Squinks disguises as a dwarf and offers his Spellwall Armor, and he also passes alone. Yumi attempts to give Nessi gems, but Nessi instead demands a kiss. Nessi becomes infatuated with Yumi and allows her, Gracias, and Philhipé to pass. Beyond the bridge, Kobold #4 encounters a gnome girl who claims to be Nessi's sister, though Nessi himself had said he was an only child. She eagerly gives Kobold #4 a kiss, stealing his Bladeturn in the process.
| |
| | |
| The group approaches an encampment of [[Elf#Spellblade|Spellblade Elves]], and they decide to sneak past it. Gracias casts Rolling Fog to proceed into the forest unseen, and Yumi freezes a Spellblade in their way. Having successfully avoided the Elves, they come across a long path lined with [[Blood Snake|Blood Snakes]] that continuously come out of the forest. A [[Blood Snake#Cobra King|Cobra King]] arises from the ground at the end of the forest, spewing lines of Blood Spit down the path.
