Session 01 – The Road to Phandalin
Date: 4/26/2022 DM: Lauren
Summary
On the first recorded session of the campaign, the crew accepted a dreaded escort mission to deliver a wagon of supplies to Phandalin. The mission originated from Gundren Rockseeker, a dwarf and part-time trivia host with secretive motives. He and his companion Sildar Hallwinter were ambushed by goblins along the road—possibly kidnapped or slain—and the party was tasked with investigating their fate.
Along the way, the group picked up two wandering college dropouts: Shade (a tiefling bard devoted to writing songs of sin rather than traditional tragedies) and Cosima, who was simply vibing with the chaos.
The party left the wagon hidden off the Triboar Trail and followed goblin tracks leading to a nearby cave. There, after surprising a few goblins and triggering a flooding trap, they found themselves stranded in a precarious and partially abandoned den. Whether truly empty—or hiding something above in the unseen loft—remained uncertain as the session ended.
