This Tuesday we had a definite lack of Players, only 3 were present and accounted for. So we did the best we could. Our pizza was large instead of extra-large, with only one topping, hamburger.

----

Since the various factions of the Players have gone off on their own, this was actually rather difficult to adjudicate. I had to keep a timeline on a whiteboard.

Snizzlephish is off on his own on a side-adventure in an unrelated location.

We backtrack a few hours to put things in perspective:

Timeline 4:00PM.

Weasel set off down the road towards the Well of Souls.

Timeline 5:00PM

Weasel encounters the big red guy and lends him his Phantasmal Steed to head back to the Party.

Timeline 5:30PM

Weasel arrives at the hill of the Well of Souls, and scouts overhead with his Robe of Blending.

Timeline 6:00PM

The big red guy arrives at with the rest of the Party.

Aeon is taken down the tunnel by the Handmaidens of Death. For the rest of the session let it be said, Aeon undergoes the tender mercies of the Handmaidens of Death the entire time.

Timeline 7:00PM

Weasel gets on his module DA3 Communicator and asks Elefus to Teleport to Weasel's lair and retrieve his Pick Axe of Excavation, still having 1 of 2 Teleports remaining for the day departs. Weasel heads back to the party without his Phantasmal Steed.

Numrendir, Junkbot and Fundisha leave the Party's location for one mile in order to report via DA3 Communicator back to the party's bosses back in Blackmoor. They believe the DA3 Communicator has been compromised and their location can be triangulated. They figure one mile off would throw any direction finders off their trail. Their report concerned the arrival of the big red guy with blonde hair. The response back from Fletcher William was to give the red guy the greatest respect.

Timeline 7:15PM

Numrendir and crew stopped to make their report. Unfortunately due to Junkbot's HackMaster flaw of excessive flatulence, they have an encounter. eight Giant Scarabs. They have a scrape and it was nearly touch and go. Numrendir cast a Monster Summoning I, and got a half dozen Corpse Skinks.

Even so, the Giant Scarabs were winning.

Eventually Numrendir had to resort to his model DA3 Heavy Blaster, retreating far enough for the fireball's radius to harm only the concentration of Scarabs chomping down on the remains of the Skinks without harming Junkbot. That did the trick as the two remaining Scarabs were easily despatched.

Timeline 8:30PM

Numrendir, Junkbot and Fundisha return to the party without further incident.

Timeline 10:00PM

Weasel arrives back at the party. While the party waits for Elefus' return.

Timeline Next day:

Elefus retrieves Weasel's Pick Axe of Excavation. Then decides to make a side trip to visit the Druid D'Vine at her Tree Hugging Paradise and Theme Park at the former City of Vestfold to negotiate for some other magic items he recalled were in her possession. Since the Player for D'Vine is not present but known, it was decided to call it a night and ask the Player offline.


++++ OUT OF CHEESE ERROR ++++

(While the report seems short, the Giant Scarab battle took up most of the time.)
