Greetings, adventurers! 🌟 Welcome back to our thrilling Dungeons & Dragons campaign, “Death House.” In our latest session, titled “Into the Depths,” our brave party ventured further into the haunted house, uncovering dark secrets and facing formidable foes. Here’s a recap of the spine-tingling adventure!

Preparation and Setup

Our session began with the party discussing their schedules and updating their character sheets. With no significant changes or level-ups, the group was ready to dive into the depths of the haunted house.

Splitting the Party

The party decided to split into two groups to cover more ground:

• Group 1: Doc and Keyleth headed west through a room with a statue, where they encountered and fought a mimic.
• Group 2: The remaining party members ventured east and north, exploring several cultist chambers and discovering a well.

Rest and Recovery

After a series of encounters, the party decided to rest. However, some members experienced exhaustion due to the eerie chanting that permeated the dungeon. Despite this, they managed to regain their strength and prepare for the challenges ahead.

Ghoulish Encounters

As the party continued their exploration, they encountered ghouls emerging from the ground. A series of intense combat encounters ensued, showcasing the party’s teamwork and strategic use of spells and abilities.

• Fluffy’s Struggles: Fluffy, the party’s pet, bravely engaged in combat but struggled to land hits on the ghouls.
• Thunderclap Spell: Maple used the Thunderclap spell to deal damage to multiple ghouls, creating a resonant wave of force.
• Eldritch Blast: Raven’s Eldritch Blast proved to be a powerful attack, dealing significant damage to a ghoul.
• Guiding Bolt: Keyleth’s Guiding Bolt delivered a critical hit, destroying a ghoul in a spectacular display of arcane energy.

Investigating the Statue

Maple’s curiosity led to the investigation of a statue holding a glass orb. This action triggered the appearance of shadows and skeletons, leading to another series of combat encounters. The party used various spells and attacks to defeat these new threats, highlighting the importance of caution and preparedness in their exploration.
