Game summary for September 9, 2014, Carrion Crown Adventure Path campaign, Ashes at Dawn adventure; PCs included Emilian Sandulescu (human paladin/ranger), and Gnok Thatek (dwarf monk), accompanied by NPC companions Alleric Swiftblade (half-elf rogue) and Nyssa Pagonis (human cleric).
After defeating the vampire ambushers, the team went into the basement of the tailor’s shop where they were met by four hostile vampire enforcers! A devastating fight ensued as the hastened vampires swarmed in with blade and blow. Nyssa attempted to level the playing field with a haste spell of her own followed by a bless. Alleric and Quinley paired up to flank and sneak attack the enemies while Gnok and his ki-empowered strikes ripped into the undead. Emilian found himself being drained of level after level and soon had to flee. One of the vampires gave chase, and Gnok ran after. Soon, Gnok found himself nearly drained into oblivious by the vampire’s strikes. The team was able to converge and drive all the undead into mist form.
Terribly hurt, and with Dario off in were-form gallivanting through the city, the team was forced to retreat to the inn. Gnok noticed that vampires followed them! Now, the team sits inside eating garlic-flavored meals as the vampires are sending in dominated townsfolk to begin occupying the area. Just what are the bloodsuckers planning?
