Summary

Session 25 - 10.4.2025

Fin's dream:
People:
- Uncle Finklerod Neverkind- a grumpy git
- His 3rd wife Cinna Neverkind
- Diedre Neverkind (child of the 2)
Were all mean about Fin's elvish clothes
(no red lights - rolled high)

Ellywick's dream:
1st witch baked children (Baba Yaga)
1st child Brine - East out by mother
2nd child Aunty - too sweet, cast out
3rd child Yassandra silence, carved from spite
Rosemary - born not baked, to claim (not her own)
- there is a mirror filled with mist

Beet's dream:
1st sacrifice at the cult - very traumatic
3 red lights

Ivy's dream:
- rich blue cloth
- undisturbed moss
- deer stood still, fox in wonder, birds silent
- sky flashed as picked up baby Rosemary left at the door
- darkness beneath the tree - 3 red eyes watched on

I think the monster saw all the dreams bar Fin and Ellywick's (high INT check)

• I rolled nat 1, may come up

There are Gnomes at Meropole

We convinced the captain (Captain Croc) of a ship that we owned it
- persuaded them to take us on a free journey

Gathered for journey:
- 2x barrels of dried crickets
- broth
- 1x richleaf - dried carbohydrate
^Gathered

Ellywick sends out her Koi magical item (called Quentin)

Brandy + Telisa - Bullywug rowers

• hit by a rock

We see a green flickering glow - near Glippergloppergloop
- whale bone houses, fish folk with blue skin
- occupants controlled by a green gem - Mind flayer have set this up

Captain Croc attacks the 3f tall fish, but is stopped by the green crystal
- Ivy, Beet and Brandy are all transfixed by the crystal
- Beet gets nat 20 and escapes Fin's attempts to restrain
- Ellywick restrains Ivy
- after Ivy comes back to herself she is tied up by Ellywick
- the crystal can see Ivy and Beet's memories

Beet feels a smooth metal surface under the water - metal manta ray (submarine?)
- it surfaces, glass dome opens
- it's Booboosnatch!

The green crystal has been there 3 cycles

"veins, but in a machine ...... ... ... wires!" - Rohan

Lots of snails and slugs around, and see 3 red lights

More memories are detected (fed to the 3 red eyed monster)

"Lord Commander Ellywick the Millionth"

We come across an island in the lake
- loose rocky earth
- sparkling
- axolotl on the shore - unusual number of eyes - has a fellglass shard
- examines symbols on shard - is inactive divination (see from distance/communication)
- had projected runes onto the raft for Ellywick and Beet to interpret as Ivy didn't understand them
- seems to be part of a psionic network, maybe an observation post??
- we brought runed fellglass shard back to the raft

3 possible next steps:
1. steam tunnels under Gliaheart
2. deeper
3. Meropole (where there are Gnome captives)

We have 3 days until the wedding we're meant to disrupt

We arrive in a new mushrooomy location

Luminous webs + mycelium
- there are luminous blue glowing mushroom people (Sentient Mushrooms)
- Snail is earthy - brown and mushy

Spores hit us
- Ivy collects them in a test tube
- nat 20 CON - only receive a head massage

Hornpustle sent us on a quest to bring spores here
Snail is feeling wonder and fear at the prospect of this

Mushroom throne - peach coloured, spiral head mushroom

Snail becomes part of the network
- sacrificed to join the collective
- very sad
- Rachel cried

Booboosnatch told us:
1. Papa Volcrin - invented a new kind of boiled tea (???)
2. Tiddlepot - insists a new God lives in the lake
3. There is a secret tunnel beneath the lake, an old mine filled with water
- steam system beneath Gliaheart
- last time there was sludge guarding the access hatch
4. Gnomeish safehouse in Gliaheart, beneath an old bathhouse

Summary

The party all had dreams, and Beet's and Ivy's were spied on by a red 3 eyed monster. We boarded a ship and sailed to Glippergloppergloop, where a green crystal set up by the Mind flayer controlled the fish population. The party bumped into Booboosnatch in a sub, and they travelled alongside, dropping off Snail to become part of a new mushroom collective :'(
