The Beginning

It was a clear morning, the nice sea breeze raised the spirits of both passengers and crew on a boat approaching the Stormwreck Isle. On the deck three figures entered the rowboat, joining a sailor, a small goblin, with a gruff blue-dyed beard. On the shoulder of the sailor a stuffed parrot rested stitched to the top of a leather vest.

On their way to the shore, the sailor asked why they were going to the isle. All of them said their destination was the Dragon's Rest, a safe heaven ran by a group of Bahamut worshipers.

Ivy, an Elf Wizard, said she wants to uncover a secret knowledge that a friend of hers messaged her about, only before they died. The message mentioned an arcane observatory built on a mountain top in a nearby island. All seemed to point to Stormwreck Isle.

Greg, a Dwarf Cleric devout of Marthammor Duin, the god of travellers and explorers, shared that he had visions of a dark shadow creeping up the land, coming from the sea, and that a voice told him to fight against this shadow. After some research he found clues that he had to go to Dragon's Rest.

Finally, Wa Dei, a Human Paladin, devout of Bahamut, was looking to prove himself to his god and to find a meaning for his life.

Zombies on the Beach

They reached the beach and came out from the boat into a small pier. From the pier they could see a small path leading to a ramp on the cliff side. The path continued in a slow incline and they could see the Dragon's Rest temple sitting atop the cliff, alongside smaller buildings.

But when they came off the pier and started to make way to the cliff path, three shambling zombies raised from the waters and attacked them!

Greg and Wa took charge and approached the group, while Ivy stayed a little back. The. holy fighters hacked and slashed the creatures causing a lot of damage straight away, while the wizard in the back also hit them with cold and force ranged attacks.

It took them about four rounds to defeat the creatures, and the paladin was knocked unconscious, but the cleric was able to bring him back into his feet again.

The session ended with them victorious and looking ahead to reaching the temple.
