Talk:Cheeky Patch
Sarah's new place for notes.
How do topics work? Could this be an individual day's notes?
Like if I took my notes here for a single session of the campaign?
Yeah... like this could be the next day's notes?
Maybe... like with the details here?
Dec 12
First Hunger - being summoned or coming back on its own. If it comes it will consume everything maybe including itself… which include maybe making a new reality
Architect of infinite forms - so then maybe that’s where the architect come in.
This is why david’s cousin has maybe tried to do his shit - but maybe he’s reached out tooooooo far past the architect… in trying to find it
Demon God of Madness - separately the continent down south has been ravaged by shit.
We encounter another ship, a Minotaur Gally and we maybe sink it with one cannonball? But it looked weird. As we approach hag island: smoke coming from halfling town!
"This island is ours now... kneel or burn... THE CROCODILE. Dominate beasty gone awry. wat. Cal was in bad shape and Ilabrar healed him. What about kronk?
Dec 17
Herein are my musings from today...
We visit Kronk. He created a tiny metal box and offers us tea. Ka-ess, Ilabrar, drink it and open the box. Silver and obsidian, my fur shines, in my reflection in the obsidion walls, i wear a crown of mirroed glass, thosuands of worshipers pray below me, i feel radiant and devine, but the crown feels strange like it doesn't belong. in the box is a shard of obsidion, inscribed with "the sharp edge of understand cuts both ways"
The door leads to the battle field beyond time. Do not know where it opens... is it a two way door? Kronk is not sure, hasn't seen the other side. Ka-ess moon questions - that sacred moon, there is a price to passage, and no real boat maybe gets there and you have to swim?! Demons enemies, maybe locked in by lightning.
Participation of gods can cause repercussions that are bad. Not all ***WHAT DID PAT QUOTE ABOUT BEWITCHED BIRD BOXES? WANT TO KNOW FOR REAL LIFE*** Cheeky is aware of a common cosmic entity lore from tabaxi religion: Cat lord stealing light from something, hanging a lantern and creating the jungle by doign so.. but lots of gaps there..
Three shadows stretch across the world, each darker than the last of holarshna and the artchitect - seek no sign; of bafomet - chaos will show us where he is, joy is slaughter and beasts are man; First hunger acts as a hunger would - is mindless and cares not Logic of the architect is too weird to fathom - Maglore is a vechicle Maglore is already here, they cannot ally because they cannot know each other - ALl will result in destruction. we can't understand it. Maglore wants to bring first hunger into the world; borrow some shit from the architect to remake the world in his image; presumably baphamet would do the same? All realsm are threatened by holashnar - multiple entities trying to take obsidian pyramid
Planes / realms
hell shadowfell
material plane- maybe central - maybe other planes mirror off of this, we dont' know what would happen if it were destroyed
feyweild something else
Holashnar is off because maglore is doing that, and maybe we could survive in the obsidian pyramid; and the 5 of us can't make a universe; . architect is off limits... don't you get it!~? - obsidion gentlemen obvs we've interacted with powerful fiends; but baphamet is probably the most rational, most interested in reality staying as it is; but he just wants it to suck - where he's a powerful demon and it woudl suck ...
full potential of stones are still to come - 4 stones can keep holishnar from coming; but kronk forsees a great battle in the battlefield beyond time between gods and demons; we must bring what allies we can... if we are to allow the 4 stones to work their power...
Cal the dragon Angelic being trapped in the temple in the Duchy (come on pass the dutch, shake shake shake shake ya stuff baby) Holy-phont - lulu Feyweild Obsidion Gentlemen Giant Vikings Big Whale RIP Turtle Snail God
Cheeky met strange and terrible beings in the shadowfell
Underdark -
One gem in sufficient to draw holishnar through into the intermediate reality/into material plane Giants gem is missing to us - we don't know the color Marquis - Red- maglore got that necklace BLIND CYCLOPS PROPHET
Two things will protect you - the gems can be anchoring on reality and self care
In a way he was lost; when he contacted the architect BUT NOW HE IS FOUND obsidion pyramid is behind US NOW!!!
Jan 22
Ka-ess grabs the pick and digs through dimensions to a Feywild-y place. Back fill it as we go. We = Ka-Ess, Ardrick, Sathul, Cheeky. Come across walking hut thing we've seen before. Cheeky sees the host as a silvery eyed, many toothed being. Tendrills of darkness connect it to the banjo. i got a headache.
AVOID BEEF We're in the feywild methinks... we're being followed by something very large. warmup- childhood nursery rhyme. Jabberwaake?
March 27
Sathul takes an invite in a black envelope from a porcelain masked being. Knock that knocker. Get into this antelope joint. Tall ceilings. Very quiet? Surprisingly quiet? Stage with red curtains. Singer with mask like the one we saw in the alley. Sad singing. "Play, perform, or pay. Choose" - Divine sense, there is a lot of damn evil here. So much that I pass out. I awake. I feel like I'm helped up and I see the person that I saw at the obsidion pyramid who gives me a thumbs up and walks towards the stage. Points to a being in a purple cloak and shakes his head. I see it's a mind flayer tentacle out from under the purple cloaked beings mask. Pay perform or play to all of us. Ardrick performs a DRINKING GAME.
Mara - crimson vails show Tabaxi storyteller And others... I also talked to a contortionist friend... who is not missing and we're supposed to meet up with
Illabrar - shadows lagging
Ka-ess - can see only reflection
Me - tall man much evil
Ardrick -
Sathul -
I know there is an ilathid in the room. I need to choose which thing I'm goign to do. Which is probably perform. Maybe I'm going to lean into the missing tabaxi storyteller thing in a comedy routine? i dunno.
April 17
RECAP:
So it's the eldritch forces that want to sabotage our world? Silent antelope - a cabaret bar thing that we went to while investigating some murders? Three eyed antelope!? Had to perform or gamble to get in. I identified a mind flayer - went behind stage, following it's shadow. we saw the long man's hand and a trap door made out of flesh and eyes. one of the dancers that had gone missing, appeared at our table. and told us to go to the third door and knocked on it. ka-ess and sathul went somewhere and knocked on door. Door opened into void. there was a platform with a bronze door. we felt the presence of holashnar the first hunger. we saw our shadowy echos fighting the bone mother and the dark lady. the obision gentlman, the great fungus, and a girl in a red cloak. kicked through a wooden door in the void we followed ardrick after he sunbeamed a dark lady. go through a door. find ourselves again. the tower home of our neighbor. he was more surprised to see us this time, second time in like 48 hours. excellence then made us some tea. Excellence senses a fiendish flavor to the antelope - rare but not unheard of for mind flayers to work with fiends. There needs to be something worth the mind flayers time, because they are willing to bargain. asked about the games and performances. doesn't like that maglore was around. the gal is most likely dead, and it was a ghost. WHAT ABOUT THE TALL GUY - WHY DOESNT EXCELLENCE KNOW ABOUT THE REALLY TALL GUY!? the show was going to be a ruse to draw out the element that was causing this. Cheeky goes the basement for some insight in this damn dungeon as to what's going on with these fiends or something: 1) shadowy vision of the future battle that we saw after going through door - we're fighting but we're overwhelmed, but only for us... so we need allies to fight back against them if that is our future 2) i ran into salera moonvail - she said she had seen these tall masked figures - they're not just anything - so whoever or whatever is abducting these people - so we're trying to draw the killers out, she might be useful the figurehead, or, the travails and burlesques of a painted lady much visited by tragedie: a comic operetta in five partes tall cloaked figure - on balcony
May 8
We had been looking for missing performers/artists/sex workers in Port. Masked robed figures invited us to the Silent Antelope. We engaged in performance. Shadow reflection gave us a clue. Separated shadow of illithid led us somewhere We had a battle around a stage. It's a pitty that you don't have more friends... Missing dancers appeared on stage after the violence after the demon was defeated... The audience is violently ill or unconscious. Wow... what did we do? Ka-Ess blows the black spiral horn - no noise - but it summons a giant Minotaur that is covered in scars. Red eyes. Smells of sulfur and decay. I have waited in the shadow... you are bold to sound the horn... We send the minotaur to sit in the balcony, but he scares the audience who awakens. "HORN BLOWER. YOUR SHOW IS QUITE AMUSING" - Ka-ess wants the show to go on.
May 13
Strange dark robed figures in porcelain masks. We got one of those masks post our battle in the Antelope.
Shadow of the ilithid.
Long man's hand... tall guy... theme.
Extravaganza and Review - summoned "the question that devours" - he poisoned everyone, but we were immune due to hero's feast.
We fought and defeated him. Spiral blood with 3 bleeding eyes were etched into stage.
Black spiral horn and procelain mask - horn summons the Minotaur - MORETH COOL THE QUESTION THAT DEVOURS - (Not Satan (GM):Morith’kul, the Question That Devours) Thamus Core?
He did not attempt to destroy us. Was not amused by our performance.
Once warden of the night spiral - had served him before .. mind...
WARMUP: What is the next outfit or item of clothing I want to purchase.
Baphamet info: 3 locations for research - marquis has library in port skaug, wandering stone giant library in underdark best but hardest to locate library, and library in the tower in freeport with the kind of friendly skeleton librarian; drax tower.
Going to marquis ->
or something. tattoo of spiral on his shoulder WITH the eyeballs>justin takes this TATTOO!? invite for midnight cocktails and a fine carriage arrives to take us to the marquis'ses.
crucified individuals, clad i black along path. appear to have met violent ends prior to crucifixion.
marquis wants to hear stories and also watch nubile dancing lads.
[[[recall: did Ilabrar got red gem back from cousin and maybe we also got a purple gem, and it was extremely unpleasant. ]]]
note that when the gem "goes on" vibes are better in the room.
Gem, tattoo, think very hard, have you seen the spiral symbol before? YES EVERYWHERE. Has it always looked like this, or has it changed? The eyes are new. Some signs that reality is changing in some way, and don't like the notion of this! Labryinth leads us to
TWISTED. REALITY. AH.
evil portraits presented by marquis > RV signed portraits You have the run of my library and librarian > Grasp Tharn !?? Very thin bald, hunched man. Eyes that blink less than you'd expect.
Mount Vorthakul.
section of tabaxi texts. as i go through this, there is an elusive and archaic poem in an older book - cat lord who is given epithets over the years... gets a new one -<<< he of whom Baphomet is afraid... >>>
Close connection to inhabitant of the mase can get us there?
Ally, cousin, alias to Baphomet > dark hunger
Baphomet and minotaur - not too unusual. BUT WAIT.
REAL LIFE: LMAO a fairly normal human who doesn't blink as much as you want.
Sarah and or Cheeky took a break and then returned...
We headed east towards Kothas to get to that minotaur homeland over in the SE of this flat world.
Labyrinth is on Kothas and evil dude is tied to it. Baphomet fears the cat lord!
Port of Essos. There is smoke and smell of unburied dead on the air. THAT DAMN SPIRAL ON A FLAG. Small boats of peeps heading toward larger boats with a golden two bitted battle axe that is the sigil of Bragen the Minotaur... Ka-ess goes in... then hops out and orders cannon fire. We came in a lot hotter than I thought we were?
Blind minotaur - Demarcos keeps referring to someone called "the unbroken" who is a war leader allied with Bragen. There is a battle at honey bridge, because the demon worshipers are trying to come across and must be stopped.
We encounter the largeste minotaur we've ever seen who is effectively holding off the minotaur forces that are heading from the south side of the river...
Mid june... this is a mid june...
We enter a colosseum as broken as I feel today. We see strange glyphs pulsing near the crack in the central pit. And we hear humming/drumming come from below the arena. "One of you will lose your shadow and this will open the door" You must make a spiral of bones around where the doorway will open, but we don't have to worry... but people have been murdered everywhere... so there are plenty of bones around... Record the rune! Pretty credible job copying the symbols in the pattern I see them... Seem to form a sort of a spiral pattern. We put some bones in the shape of the spirals... We enter a bed chamber with a large bed in it but possibly She does not seem surprised to see you... Take something of his, bring him here to obsidion pyramid, she gives us a mirror to look at objects to be able to see if they are the madnessed dude's. the labaryinth has things in it that will find us. large room. rotting or burnt wooden stage at one end. broken benches in front of it. was it a theater?! (SD has Large bone hands running a puppet show. The bones are bound by silk threads... THE PUPPETS LOOK LIKE US.
July 1 - A new fiscal year
3 doors: door of salt - hall of statues - evil king ilabrar in an altered timeline; found a cloak pin; melted a statue; long hand man released? Beginning to enter the arena, people in it. Wake-up routine/morning routine/adventuring, ship, home. Flaming skull arrives. He informs us he's guarding the arena. melty candle = demon guy? Grey render -> large vicious hunter, physically powerful. Blue thing -> spirit troll - can regenerate health > force or psychic damage. Undead bone claw -> evil wizard who tries to transform into a witch and fucked it up. - ivory needle shard guy They fight each other a little bit. Grey render - there is a hint of intelligence in its eyes, the grey renders are super dangerous, they're quite violent, but has strong desire to bond with intelligent creature.
BIG CHOMP
Need to defeat the dude near the obsidian pyramid
Found the thing that belonged to the dude. cloak
Hand of the very long man seeks us across the multiverse.
Battled in the arena.
I bonded with a grey render.
Token or object and who is the person - cheeky has a shard, piece, bit of her uncle's magic staff that she uses to write with sometimes.
Emerge from the portal and sand is turned from glass. Fortress on the hill toppled over. Air is too humid, feels like steam.
Absolutely massive red dragon visible. Bridge is wrecked. A dragon came and fucked this town up. Not an ally of Baphomet. Can't forget that I have a broom of flying.

The dreaming flame dragon... Dragon woken up from a volcano north of hear... this dragon is likely that dragon. It had been sleeping/absent.
Bragen is dead. Spear and Axe in hand covered in blood. Blood is degrading weapons... jeezus. He's burnt. Broken bones. Red dragon scales by body.
Equiv to wizard or sorcerer. Scales are twice the size of Cal's/Kal's.
