Game summary for February 12, 2013, Carrion Crown Adventure Path campaign, The Haunting of Harrowstone adventure; PCs included Amras Amandill (half-elf inquisitor), Dinendal Ironbow (elf ranger), Gnok Thatek (dwarf monk), Sealamin Laughshield (gnome fighter), and Stoella Carter (human evoker).
The party arrived in Ravengro around 7:00 a.m., just in time to help Kendra Lorrimor by carrying the coffin of her father, Professor Petros Lorrimor, down the Dreamwake toward the waiting grave. As the party progressed down the path, they were confronted by a dozen farmhands, drunks, and ne’er-do-wells led by ole Gibs Hephanus. They demanded the funeral procession leave and bury the “necromancer” elsewhere! Kendra and Gibs exchanged words, and the ruffians assaulted the pallbearers! A quick scuffle led to six thugs knocked out and the rest running for safety!
The funeral proceeded with the services overseen by Father Grimburrow. All the team, except for Sealamin, said a few words. Their ability to speak in public is greatly lacking, and a small scene and disaster followed, with much of the townfolk put off by the strange words of the visitors.
Following the funeral, the party assembled at the Lorrimor home for the reading of the will. They discovered what the old Professor wished of them. They also read his journal and learned a bit about The Whispering Way and Harrowstone prison.
Amras, Dinendal, and Gnok headed into town and dropped by Jominda’s Apothecary seeking some healing potions. With the scene they caused at the funeral, the shopkeeper was not overly thrilled at their presence and offered to sell them a healer’s kit. Afterward, they stepped outside and talked to a young boy out by the posting poles.
