Plot Summary
Captain Ca-Rell is warned about a group of Porcs in a cave who are going to attack the town of Danevur, so Ca-Rell and the Theta Squad go to kill the Porcs. After several days of defending the town Templeton's younger brother Phineas wants to help the group, but when Templeton refuses Phineas complains about how he doesn't ever get to go on any adventures and runs away. Leading to the events of the Porc Hunters campaign.
As Templeton is occupied with his brother, he gathers the rest of the crew, which can't be bothered to help without a pay raise from Captain Ca-Rell, to go help him find him. They flee towards a forest that had been previously burnt to the ground by Elmar, who claim that he was "cold", to find him. There they meet the fire spirit at the heart of the burning. The party is greatly challenged by the spirit due to them flat out murdering the elves sent to assist them. During the fight Elmar, who receives his chill jacket, and Ca-Rell, who gallantly leads the group, heads up the combat doing the majority of the work. While Denada spends time relaxing in a tent and sending [Earthlord|Earth Elementals] to get snacks. After near death experiences and Templeton almost starting the next encounter, they survive and move on to the next fight.
Our Party then precedes to a bridge, where they are met by a Goblin named Justin. The fight starts with the goblin being physically abused by our party. Only shortly afterwards, the tables turn as he throws a smoke bomb and steals various items from our party. After lots of swimming and panic, the goblin is defeated and their stuff (mostly) is returned, but too late to evade the Whisper Snake that whispers in a targets ear to mind control them, and shoots blast of water from its mouth. They fight this Snake and eventually defeat it, and the goblin reinforcements that follow. Damaging and cooling Dave's testicles in the process.
Then, our party meets up with Dave, the sun cleric, who is escorting a prisoner. Little into the conversation the prisoner, a Kobold named Chimera, breaks free. It is revealed that he has a powerful array of abilities and amazing strength. Ca-Rell constantly (trying to) tanking, Templeton and Denada sending in an endless stream of Elementals, and Dave trying to get un-stunned, they fight him. After he wipes out all of the Elf reinforcements, against all odds our heroes defeat him. Afterwords it is revealed that Dave saw Phineas run into the adjacent cave.
The Party enters the cave and find three Porcs standing by a pool of purple vomit. Unusually, our party manages to be very successful with diplomacy, and is aloud into the cave. Upon entering, they say that they plan to pay "tribute" to Porbo the porc's leader. Along the way in the miss (or ignore it was unclear) an opportunity to save Phineas. After nearly the entire cave filled with porcs gathers around our party and follows them to Porbo's lair, it is revealed that this so called tribute is death, and that they must engage Porbo in combat. The encounter is filled with many interesting mechanics such as Skelephelk who are immune to magic. After figuring the fight out, our party defeats Porbo despite his chat enabled enraged status.
Phineas ends up saving himself and joining Theta Squad. Ca-Rell takes up the leadership position of Porbo resigning from Theta squad. Denada traps Porbo in a mirror and throws it over his shoulder, with a 20 dice roll. Templeton gets his brother back. And Elmar stays nice and chill.
