Kimin's back!
Kimin the Shaman, Uraziti the Spellblade, and Milio the Bard face off against foes in front of them and behind them in an effort to survive long enough to enter the ziggurat at the focal point of the cyclopolis. What they'll find there is anyone's guess, but they begin to get hints of what is to come...

Uraziti the Spellblade and Milio the Bard have made their way back to their present and meet up once more with their clandestine companion ʻLhgg the Barbarian. The party makes their way toward the ziggurat at the focus of the ritual city's magic, seeking the heart of the cyclopean god-king's power. But despite the presence of an ancient guardian protecting the entrance to the ziggurat, Milio and Uraziti see their chance to free the possessed body of their old friend Kimin and try to catch the entity within him off-guard.

After being taunted by 138-Heads-On-Spikes, Milio the Bard, Uraziti the Spellblade, and Kimin the Shaman, as well as their traveling companion Navaath come face-to-skull with Tmuc, the last warrior-poet of the giants, who was cursed to eternally protect the gate of the Cyclopolis into which our party is seeking entrance.
This one gets fucking wild.

Kimin the Shaman, Milio the Bard, and Uraziti the Spellblade, along with their companion Navaath follow the directions given to them by the Death monk last session on their way to find the Cyclopean city at the heart of the Vulturelands. But on their travels, they come under the watchful eye of someone rather intimidating.
Ryan may sound a little weird about halfway through this one - more recording issues on the original, so we had to rerecord the back half. But at least you can understand him this way!

Kimin the Bard, Uraziti the Spellblade, and Milio the Bard, along with their new elven companion Navaath, decide to intervene in a fight between some Death cultists (see the illustration Zach references in the recording down below) and some pale, gaunt creatures in the hope of earning their favor. But dealing with religious zealots is, ah, complicated. And Kimin learns some dreadful news. Lotta RP work in this one!

Milio the Bard, Kimin the Shaman, and Uraziti the Spellblade debate whether to allow a former foe to travel with them. Then the party continues their way in the Vulturelands toward a cult's cloister, trying to cross a bridge that has broken to pieces with time. And of course, nothing is easy, so they don't attempt the crossing without resistance.

After leaving their less-than-friendly new acquaintances, Uraziti the Spellblade, Milio the Bard, and Kimin the Shaman find themselves overlooking a mysterious pit, unsure of how, or if, to look down within its depths. Despite their fear, they press onward, and find an ancient remnant of an ancient people thought lost.
Though tensions stay high between the party members, they venture across the edge of the Vulturelands, finding their path blocked, but now by the unstoppable forces of time.

Kimin the Shaman, Uraziti the Spellblade, and Milio the Bard spend the afternoon getting to know their welcoming but mysterious elven hosts, Qo'okal and Navaath. But tension between the party bleeds over to their conversations with the elves as the topic turns toward the mechanisms near the edge of the ridge and knowledge the elves do not wish to share...

Sorry about the stinger on this one...
Kimin the Shaman, Milio the Bard, and Uraziti the Spellblade have narrowly survived a fight with the local, not-quite-alive locals in the Vulturelands. Milio and Uraziti debate who should scout for camp as tensions remain high within our traveling party - which leads to a struggle out of the darkness. Then, Kimin grapples with his proud spirit becoming unmoored from his material body. After an invigorating meal and a good night's rest (as well as some leveling up), they continue onward toward a hint of civilazation. Hopefully what they find there will prove more hospitable than their last encounter...

Our hiatus from Series IX is over! Welcome back to the Vulturelands! And this episode is a doozy.
Milio the Bard, Kimin the Shaman, and Uraziti the Spellblade have reunited, despite the party being split across different dimensions. There is some tension between our adventurers which takes an emotional toll and drags the party's cohesion and morale down. But as they venture forth through the Vulturelands, they quickly realize there are much more dangerous problems than the issues they have with each other. Sometimes you have to put differences aside to work together.
But that doesn't guarantee the dice are going to agree with them...

Milio the Bard, Kimin the Shaman, and Uraziti the Spellblade deal with the consequences of their own actions during our last session. Milio and Kimin are dealing with arcane art gone awry, while Uraziti has transported himself to his own center of power, but without a way back from a hostile land.
Together, though, they come up with a plan to reunite. It's going to take everyone working in unison, which in this group, means a lot of trouble may be headed their way. And everything is getting pretty strange...

Kimin the Bard and Uraziti the Spellblade, having lost their traveling companion over a cliff, decide to explore the crumbling tower that had been guarded by skeletons. They find themselves dealing with mysterious effects and something skittering within.
Meanwhile, Milio the Bard, believing his companions are traveling in the same direction in order to meet up, walks along a river of tar alone, seeking a way back up the ravine. While in some ways, he finds the walk beneficial, it's not going to be so straightforward to meet up with his friends again.

Milio the Bard, Uraziti the Spellblade, and Kimin the Shaman have journeyed through the Vulturelands to a strange tower polite enough to inform them it is forbidden. Our party tries to dig deeper to learn more, but finds themselves confronted by a group of skeletal warriors. Uraziti uses his powerful martial magic to blast these bony foes, Milio uses his brains to outsmart the brainless, and Kimin uses his... brute strength?
Things don't go quite how they hoped.
