Our Milestone: To retrieve all lost items stolen during the group's last visit eight years ago!
Notes :
The Witchlight Carnival comes to the material plane once every eight summers, and this is the year it has come to Anauroch!
The group was introduced to the Owlbear Cub, Juniper, and determined how it is they know of her/what their relationship to her is. They also determined and recounted how it was that they all came to this place and/or know each other
.
Our Milestone: Juniper has escaped us and run into the Carnival….we must find and retrieve her!
Eight years have passed since the last adventure at the Witchlight Carnival. Memories of escapades there and of Juniper, the shared owl bear cub - much like a neighborhood cat - have begun to fade, new friends have come and gone, and all party members have grown!
Once again, word has spread that the Witchlight Carnival is returning to Anauroch. The thought of the spectacles, games, sounds, and smells combined with the hope of rejoining old friends is almost overwhelming.
Two new friends have joined the ranks, and all three comrades begin the trek toward the fairgrounds not knowing who or what will be found there.
First thing noticed when entering the grounds is that Dirlagraun is not the happy, congenial Displacer Beast of their last meeting. She now appears somber and apathetic, and all of the group notice that her kitten Star is nowhere to be found even though mother and kitten were inseparable before.
Locating their old friends, Kaiden and Scramm, almost immediately, the group decides to begin a search for the items stolen from their friends during their visit eight years ago. Kaiden and Scramm’s carnival companions (a Sprite and a Blink Dog) join them in the search.
Unable to regain access to the booths in the remote area of the grounds which they visited last time, they proceed to visit the different areas available for business in the main carnival area.
One thing the little band of brothers realizes almost immediately is that their behavior alters the mood of the carnival, and the difficulty of their challenges fluctuates with that mood…the “brighter” the carnival’s mood, the easier their quests. Being polite and attentive to carnival workers and other patrons raises the mood of the festival as does full group participation in activities and events.
Passing from location to location reveals several things to the party….Burly seems to be handling all trouble makers by himself. His twin brother Hurly is nowhere to be seen. Also, Candlefoot (the story telling genious) is now in the main part of the carnival acting as a mime.
The search for the stolen items continues. From booth to booth the friends search and question in an attempt to recover the prizes…The Calliope, The Carousel, The Snail Races. Visiting the Gondola Swans and the mermaid in Silversong Lake, the comrads find that Candlefoot now plays the mime, because his voice was taken by the Hags just as he was about to propose to Diana Cloppington at the Carousel.
They continue their quest, eventually ending up in the Feasting Orchid and finding the last of the sought items there.
All items recovered, at next meeting all characters will promote to level 2!
