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.

As Templeton chases after his brother, he comes across the rest of the crew at the town's bar. Elmar and DeNada can't be bothered to help fight the Porcs without a pay raise from Captain Ca-Rell. The party learns from another elf that Phineas was seen fleeing towards a forest that Elmar had spawned a Fire Spirit in the day before, Elmar claiming that he was "cold". At the forest they encounter the Fire Spirit being restrained by two Elves and their manager, and decide to kill it. DeNada remains uncooperative, relaxing in a tent and sending Earth Elementals to retrieve beer and pizza, and knock an Elf ally unconscious. The spirit starts to pose a significant challenge to the party after Elmar accidentally decapitates another Elf, Mini Fire Spirits begin spawning continuously, and fire meteors pummel the party. During the fight Elmar receives a Winter Coat, and he and Ca-Rell deal a large amount of damage to the main Fire Spirit. DeNada begins to help attack the spirit, though knocking out the Elf manager in the process. At low stamina, Templeton takes cover behind a bridge across Emerald Lake and pushes a hiding Goblin into the water. The party barely survives as the Fire Spirit is defeated and the mini spirits flee.

DeNada's Earthlords return with the food, but disintegrate and spill it. Ca-Rell attempts to wake up the surviving Elf, but ends up slapping him in the balls. She assigns ranks to the others, and they proceed to the bridge, where they are met by the previous Goblin named Justin. Justin is beat up by the party, but the tables turn as he throws a smoke bomb and steals various items from them, escaping onto rocks on the lake. Elmar knocks out Justin in the water and retrieves most of their treasure, as the Whisper Snake arises from the lake. It whispers in Templeton's ear and controls his mind, forcing him to attack his teammates. The others then notice the snake's presence and eventually understand its ability. In the meantime, Ca-Rell finds a powerful weapon called Lieutenant Surge in the water. DeNada summons a dirty Frost Elemental he names Ice Lord to cool the manager Elf's balls, and the chilly Elmar also rests on his balls, but the manager is still too weak to aid in battle. Alhough the Whisper Snake controls other party members and begins to use Hydropump, it is forced to retreat beneath the lake. Immediately afterwards, five Goblin reinforcements arrive on the bridge, but are swiftly and relentlessly killed by the party.

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 they 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 and insane Porcs. 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.
