DM Speaks:
I hope I have done a good job in giving you a feel of being on a plane of chaos, untrust and deceit, the ABYSS! You have only started your journey to where it is said Desicus resides. You are trusting this tiefling bard named Fla' nell and it does come to question whether she can be trusted (her picture has been posted). This Tiefling is leading you to where Desicus is said to reside. Is this true, do you believe her or is something else going on? We shall see! Fun night on the Abyss and there is SO MUCH MORE that you will encounter on this plane to hopefully give you an even better as to what the ABYSS is.
It was also fun freeing the Planetarm the holy good outsider killing the quasits which guarded it. Can mere quasits be what was protecting such a mighty power of good? Who knows as you have moved on with the Planetars blessing.
Hope you also had fun killing some enhanced vile ghouls and ghasts as well. Pretty fun all-around game!
One thing I have to add. Which I was truly hoping we were able to purchase. Was an item to deal with the heat. Good thing we have Quivol protection spell. But it wont last forever. That will need to continue
Throughout our journey
Yeah, this has been, one HELL of a journey so far. I definitely feel I am in the abyss. Danger is everywhere. And I am happy we are high level, taking on this mission. I am hoping everyone has kind of seen, with that first encounter. Nothing can be trusted here. And kylor I think you are crazy to have let that thing bite you. No way would I ever let that thing get so close to me. But thank Desa nothing truly bad happened to you, because of it. As I have just stated. Nothing can be trusted here. Even this tieflieng. Yes she is being nice and kind to us. Is this on purpose?. We are now in her cart. Where is she truly taking us. Will she be rewarded by bringing us to Dessicus. Yes we have given her some stuff and gems. But hell can she get even more by bringing us to Dessicus. And just look how easy it would be for her to get a reward. All she may have to do, is just delivery us to him. And she is paid. I think she is extremely cunning. Did she really fall asleep in th cart. Or was that a test to she how much we can trust her. Seems like she has been in the abyss for a long time. And I dont think she has survived this long, by being nice. Dont be fooled by her kindness. Stay alert. And be ready.

I said last night how the DM made us truly feel like we are in a new place we have never imagined!
The natural disasters, and the treacherous demonic characters, and the scenery images and even the new brown map all made ir feel like the Abyss for sure!!
I do trust this Fla'nell probably more than i should....i am hopeful because avoiding unnecessary dangers here, and going directly to confront Desicus where he may not expect us could make the difference!
DM Speaks:
We had some really great character role playing tonight! I appreciate that and enjoy it so much, I think you ALL play your characters so exceptionally. It's so rare I need to question an action by any PC and if I ever do you always have a good reason for it. That boils down to exceptional role playing on your part!
I recognize the groups concern moving forward on the Abyss and Desicus. Warranted but FUN! I do care for this group and will keep an eye out for you as DM. The problem is Desicus may be too strong of an influence to allow that to happen. I feel his dominance compelling me to not give you a fair chance!
I am SO excited for this adventure! The final Desicus battle for sure, but even more is your interactions and battles getting there. Who survives this?
Desicus is a MAJOR NPC and if you are UNsuccessful reaching him, I WILL be sad but allow it to happen.
Part of this challenge is traveling the deadly Abyss and then finding him so I will not sell this part of the adventure short I assure you!
Look under PICTURES to see what Fla' Nnell - the Tiefling Bard looks like!
