Smokey Mountain Heroes' Guild

11/10/2020

Our main campaign will be taking a break in mid-December, but we'll be starting a shorter parallel campaign on Friday nights in January. If you've always wanted to play D&D, here's your chance.

This will be an urban campaign where our heroes are not heroes at all, but villains!!! We'll be part of an upstart thieves' guild in the Free City of Rin, a human settlement in the southeast corner of the Wood Elf kingdom of Aerallin.

If you're interested, please contact me. We play online using Roll20 and Discord.

Yowzers, we just finished our 40th episode of our No Rest for Everton/Terror in the Taldor Peaks campaign!!! Our heroes are deep inside a mountain searching for some unknown monsters hiding in the shadows. On the way they have found a dragon treasure horde, been invited to a young lady's 18th birthday party, and are doing this all to pay back a favor to the Adirondack Goblins!!!

Never underestimate how quickly your heroes will lower their guards when they see something cute, even when that cute thing has razor sharp claws and teeth and will grow into an apex predator.

High atop the Taldor Peaks is the now vacant lair of Aurithuk, the White Dragon who terrorized the mountains for the past 2 decades. But Miklak the Conqueror, leader of the Adirondack Goblins says there are still dark forces hiding in the shadows. Fresh off the shocking revelation of the thing in The Old Chapel, can our heroes refocus and put the whispering shadows to rest?

Join us tonight on Roll20 at 8pm for Episode 38 as our heroes begin the journey back up the Taldor Peaks and seek to broker peace between The Six Kingdoms and the Adirondack Goblins.

As a second Bugbear's head was separated from his body, it was easy to see how the Human Fighter had risen to such a position of prominence within the Dwarven army. His face and armor were covered in the blood of his enemies and yet he smiled. His new friends were strong, and he was happy to show that he belonged at their side.

But what of this deal with the Adirondack Goblins? Of course every people deserved their own ancestral lands, but could they be trusted? And what of the shadowy evil within Aurithuk's Keep that had them even more terrified than a White Dragon?

Friday night is game night!!! Join us at 8pm on Roll20 for Episode 35 of or main campaign. After a party of filthy Orcs slaughtered all the Mountain Rams in Thunderweld just as winter was beginning, our heroes have ventured back into the Taldor Peaks looking to wrangle some wild rams.

Will they succeed? Or will the Adirondack Goblins prove to be too mighty a foe?

Mygo slowly walked through the village looking for the group of heroes. He had been working and planning in his cottage all day and did not hear the rumor about the heroes heading off into the wilds in search of wild rams.

He kept reaching into his pocket, feeling for the fragment of parchment. He had so many questions and he hoped the heroes might have the answers he was looking for.

What did the symbols above the statues mean? What was waiting for him down the tunnel in the abandoned ruins? And what unfinished experiments did the Builders leave behind?

The broken down shack was a welcome refuge from the howling wind and bitter cold of the Taldor Peaks. For a traveler lost in a driving snow storm or caught away from home on a hunting expedition, it was just warm enough to provide a break from the elements until the next dawn. But what were those sounds coming from the trees and the scurrying noises from the roof above?

With Winter fast approaching in the mountain village of Thunderwell, those who paid attention to the small and insignificant details of daily life would have noticed something remarkable going on in the garden outside Mygo Falcon-Plum’s cottage. Despite the cold nights and the frosty mornings, this one garden plot stayed green and vibrant. Each day around noon time, Mygo could be seen filling an old basket with fresh carrots, lettuce, and tomatoes.

On this day, he busied himself inside his small cottage making a big pot of vegetable soup, talking excitedly to the squirrels that had gathered on his window ledge.

“I thought they would have been here by now. You don’t suppose they ran into trouble, do you? One more day, then we’ll have to see about getting started on our own. Friends or no friends, we’ve got to go down that tunnel and see if the box is still there.”

Thought our heroes were done with the Adirondack Goblins? Think again! As the party learned of the slaughter of the Dwraven Mountain Rams in Thunderweld and Blessingdale, they heade back into the Taldor Peaks, hoping to wrangle some wild rams. But before they could deal with the rams, the Adirondack Goblins let it be known that they now claim the Taldor Peaks!

A pile of dead Goblins lay across the mountain rode, but one scout was able to sneak away. Will he run for his life or alert his brothers about the trespassers? Join us Friday 9/25 at 8pm on Roll20 to find out!

The ferocious Orcs the heroes encountered in the colds of Angramar had chosen to slaughter the precious Mountain Rams rather than fully fight back against the heroes. And yet when they did strike, they nearly killed the young Goblin and the Elf Wizard. How would the battle have gone had the Orcs fully committed to the fight?

Join us Friday 9/18 at 8pm on Roll20 as the heroes limp back to Thunderweld looking for answers.
