The Gift: Session Two Adventure Log

Session Two begins with the characters taking stock of their various plots of land and working out the most important jobs they'll need to complete:

Features of note on everyone's claims:
  • Cade: Shack (although currently infested), workable farm plot.
  • Sloane: Shack, unworked land, Standing Stone.
  • Misty: Farm Cottage and Barn, overgrown plot.
  • Hind: No building, small farm plot, natural water source
  • Juan: Shack, workable farm plot.
  • Nannie Ogg: Small cottage, overgrown plot, Standing Stone.
  • Goro: Shack, small farm plot.
Investigations of the standing stones reveal they are etched with Draconic language-like runes. A Detect Magic notes a low level aura around each of the stones. Sloane has noticed a similar rune marked on the odd egg she found hidden within her hut.

Tasks are focused on getting the various buildings secure and weatherproof and establishing various water sources (blocked wells and so on). Hind is neighbourly and offers use of his spring to his companions.

Whilst the days are passing productively Juan's nights are disturbed. He is visited on successive nights by an apparition which seems to beckon him from his dwelling through Misty's plot towards the Dark Eye Tower. As the spectral figure gets closer to the tower it becomes more defined, taking on the appearance of a human male labourer or farm worker.


Juan informs his neighbours of his strange visitor, and they determine to investigate the tower. Misty is sure she has seen a strange red glow emanating from the top of the old watch building.

Post Adventure Note: Cade was absent for the session. His flappy infestation remains unresolved.
