No photos to add to this sadly as I'm running the campaign as a play by post over discord. It's slow going and the players haven't got far at all, in fact they have just spent their first night in the city. Two have managed to contract Sea Lung already. Loving the intrigue here, and with Innocent in Still Echo just landing the players (though they don't know it) are already heading towards entering the prison - hopefully on a rescue mission! Two of the players tried to wrestle the "Kraken" and got a good dunking - and a couple of them turned green thanks to Isak :D Loving this campaign so far, and really looking forward to see what the rest of it is like. If it's all this good it will likely be one of the best modules out there!

Another update. Still moving slowly. I've dangled a few of the quests in front of the players. Captain Marrows and the pirate treasure features heavily. They've met John Mason too. Unfortunately, the bait they went for was a Black Dragon Wyrmling ransacking buildings in the barrows - so.... They don't know this yet - Dead sailor that John found the map on, was working with the dragon as part of a pirate crew. Dragon's long term plan....well...er....lol....it wants the pirate treasure, but also wants to raid the bank, having heard of the wealth inside. There may be a long term power play there to wrestle power from the vampires, but that's going to be a long term campaign arc - possibly involving a dragon parent somewhere along the line :D Anyway. Hopefully going to tie in the bugbear dragon to this storyline, and they'll get to enter their first dungeon - a repurposed Moathouse from the "Temple of Elemental Evil" fits the bill nicely as an offshore ruined hideout for the pirates (Bugbears, Gnolls and Pirates). Dragon is going to have a nice cave somewhere on the coast to the south. DM'ing is never easy 🤣🤣
Sounds like the party is having a great time. Love the updates!
Thank you for the great comments. We are too excited about this campaign and launching the supplimental book on Shard. Your players will love the prison or probably hate it. Lol Its one of those places that will take everything a party has to complete. Super cool for a DM! Just wait till they meet the serial killer down there! If you like Book 1 wait till you get to Book 2 and the vampires! Keep us posted as you go.
