Greetings, adventurers! 🌟 Welcome back to our thrilling Dungeons & Dragons campaign. In our latest session, titled “Defeating Lorgoth,” our brave party faced one of their most formidable foes yet. Here’s a recap of the intense and action-packed adventure!

Preparation and Setup

Our session began with the party discussing their characters and the challenges ahead. With some players missing, the group had to manage their characters creatively, including the humorous idea of putting a character in a jar due to their small size.

Entering the Temple of Sacrifice

The party ventured into the eerie Temple of Sacrifice, where they heard ominous chanting that changed to “One must die.” After much debate, the group decided to cast an attack spell into an alcove, awakening a mound of debris.

Battle with the Shambling Mound

The battle with the shambling mound was intense. The party used a combination of spells and melee attacks to fend off the creature. Carol stabilized Maple with a potion, and the group retreated strategically, holding actions and casting spells like Ray of Frost and Produce Flame.

Strategic Maneuvers

Fluffy’s Attack: Fluffy, the pet, was sent to attack the mound from within, dealing significant damage.

Maple’s Fire Spells: Maple used Produce Flame to set the pile of twigs on fire, causing damage to the mound.

Teamwork: The party worked together, using their abilities and surroundings to their advantage.

Final Stand

The party continued their assault on the mound, with Fluffy dealing damage from inside. Despite the fierce battle, the mound was eventually defeated, but not without casualties.

Aftermath

The chanting stopped, leaving the party in silence. They carried the body of Zarqawi’s to an empty crypt for burial. Discussions ensued about casting spells to prevent Zarqawi’s from becoming undead.

Reflections

The session was intense, with strategic planning and teamwork being crucial. The party faced significant challenges but managed to defeat the mound. The loss of Zarqawi’s was a somber moment, highlighting the dangers of their quest.
