S6E6 EIR- A Boatful of Bull

Only Katja, Agnes and Gary at session.

Emmanulle introduced characters to Maria-Luise, the Emperor's lover. She took the characters to meet the emperor who is ill with Purple Brain Fever (an incurable disease) he contracted after meeting with Gideon (who he thought was an orphan).

Quintas gave them clues that Sigmar took Ghal-Maraz south to the Black Fire Pass and was not seen with it again. He turned off of the path near the 3 mothers monument.

Met with Crown Prince who is going to be the regent while the Emperor is ill.

The characters got a boat and headed south on the river Reik. Rumors of the Emperor being ill are spreading.

At the town of Diesdorff, just north of Kemperbad, they were enjoying a pint when a cripple entered and revealed he was a bird-headed-mutant. He offered a parlay to the town from the Red Crown (the town doesn't have a militia as they were pressed into service to fight the orcs in the east; thanks Gary). Gary shot the mutant and Agnes finished him off.

Katja looked outside and saw several boats of beastmen approaching and more from the forest. A siege is about to begin.

S5E16 tHR- Not So Ready on the Picket Line

From the Beginning:  https://rigglewwh.blogspot.com/2021/06/s0e1-introductions.html PCs : Sister Agnes (Duane), elf Mor (Bill), Cavalryman Gary (Matt), wizard Venegral (Tony) ReCap : Finally killed that Skaven Assassin! After meeting with Baron Heinrich von Karzburdger, who gives his blessing, they continue onward and upward to the towering Brass Keep . At its base a few miles west… the picket line comprised of numerous tents to support 200 men strong and a walled palisade. Captained by Heinrich’s daughter, Emmiline. Cossacks/Kislevites/Ungols : As they drove the wagon load of weapons higher into the mountain steppes, a lone horseman stepped from the thickets, “Greetings, I am horse-captain Tylik. You’ve been expected.” Ten other horsemen appeared and offered to care for the travelers’ horses. Gary was the first to ponder, “Horsemen? Up in the mountains?” Tylik explained, “Our Tsar and the Empire have an agreement for troop exchange. 6-month deployments. Thus, we go where we are

S3E4: Death on the Reik - Kemperbad

Image
Leaving the Tower : Without success, Agnes shook the study books hoping to find the 6 th key inside a cutout. Henryk insisted, “This basalt base is over 2000 years old. The layer of dust suggests 100 years undisturbed. I still say the surviving heir of that portrait family has the 6 th magical key.” They returned to the barge full of snoring dwarves. Come morning, they announced the tower cleansed. Master Anjuyllis convinced them to stay, “Only 4 days to complete. The easiest gold per day you’ll ever earn.” On the 5 th day, Anjuyllis acted as pay-master, and handed them script, “Empire IOU, payable in Kemperbad or any large city. As good as gold and without the weight.” On the horizon : They set their sights on Kemperbad where they hoped to find ‘Ostmark Loorbeer c/o The Plummet’s Prospect ’. Perhaps bring up Kastor Lieberung’s letter announcing the inheritance a false ploy to draw them out. The same letter that fingered Etelka Hertzen as a professional rival. The same Loorbeer

S3E6: Death on the Reik - Grissenwald

Image
Wittgendorf : A desolate village under the watchful eye and sinister control of Lady Margritte Von Wittgenstein up in her Castle Wittgenstein atop the ridge. Her people reduced to starvation, cannibalism, and even mutation at the hands of the doctor prescribing HER medicinal cure. Himself a ghoul. To storm the castle would be suicidal. But there lay hope with the dwarvish blade Barrakul once wielded by the Sigmarian knight (Siegfried Von Kesslering) who slayed a bestial horde led by a chaos warrior. Hope also in a secret door known to Hilda’s grandfather, Hans. “Maybe records in Grissenwald’s libraries hold clues to the possible password to open the door.” Henryk  (Bill) noble, Ranger/Witch-Hunter level2 Brandiwyn  (Tony) RiverWarden Mallorhan (Brian) wood-elf Messenger… absent Gary  (Matt) Warrior/Cavalryman Sister Agnes  (Duane) noble, Warrior Priestess of Shallya Katja  (Geoff) noble, Entertainer/
