Classic Fantasy D&D 5e - Shadow of the Demon (for lack of a better title)
#14
In the morning, they club him over the head. Tie him up. Leave a note for the town guard telling him who he is and what crimes he's committed in Strathmore. They leave and check out.
 
Are the town guards still interested in finding them for killing Corkie?
 
(50/50 | 3[d10]) No
 
They party does some purchasing of goods. Mainly healing potions.
 
Renchant tries to find out someone who practices magic (Investigate DC 12). He got an 18 total.
 
He finds someone. Is it a wizard?
 
(50/50 | 4[d10]) No
 
Sorcerer?
 
(50/50 | 4[d10]) No
 
Must be a warlock then.
 
Does he have any spell scrolls he's willing to sell?
 
(Somewhat Unlikely | 5[d10]) No
 
Okay. They'll leave and head back north to Strathmore.
 
Any interesting event along the 6 day journey back?
 
(Somewhat Unlikely | 6[d10]) No, but...
 
Just a rainstorm that made everything wet and miserable.
 
They arrive at Strathmore. Anything new there?
 
(Somewhat Unlikely | 5[d10]) No
 
Things are pretty much the same.
 
They met with Krellia in closed doors and explain what they found out from Myly about the different bandit camps. Their locations on a rough map and the main lair.
 
Krellia decides that the garrison will help.
 
How far away is the nearest town to the north?
 
More than a week?
 
(50/50 | 10[d10]) Yes, and...
 
It's a two week journey to the next town to the north and they won't be of much help with the washed out bridge from the storm.
 
They'll hit all the above camps simultaneously, but the heroes will handle the main underground lair and to find and either capture or destroy Thenas. Preferably capture.
 
That's the plan, but it depends on some things that would have asked Myly.
 
Are their more bandits than soldiers in Strathmore?
 
(Likely | 8[d10]) Yes
 
"That might not work... we'll need to hit them maybe two at a time and then rejoin for the final lair," Renchant says.
 
Are there more than two above ground?
 
(50/50 | 6[d10]) Yes, but...
 
One has only started to being settled. The other has defenses etc.
 
So they'll divide for the first assault above ground. Heroes will hit the highly defended one. The Strathmore forces will hit the fledgling one and then will come to help.
 
Strathmore will give the heroes 4 soldiers for their assault.
