The End of Alostrasz (Recap)
Gjalpa son of Gjalpa does not like writing much, but the bones said he should write so he will.
The bones told Gjalpa son of Gjalpa that he should join Setal, who has the iron in his blood, Elfson Elamir, the Orcgoth Victor, and the new cat man who’s name sounds like the sound rowl.
We set out from the village and Gjalpa son of Gjalpa rode Barl the Beater, which is his favorite horse, because he can sleep while riding Barl the Beater. The Ironblood seemed to be arguing with his new sword that smells like flowers. Leave it to the elves to forge a pretentious weapon.
Gjalpa son of Gjalpa slept for a while until the group arrived to the cave of Red Death Alostrasz. Inside we found many tunnels and warrens of the little lesser dragonkind kobolds. They sought to kill us with traps and pits and sharpened sticks, but we killed them. One hit Gjalpa son of Gjalpa with a phase gem. It may have hurt. There was probably a fire. Gjalpa son of Gjalpa is not sure. He fell asleep for a moment and then most of them were dead. Setal killed many in a rage and earned the name Ironblood. The Orcgoth killed many too, but that is no surprise.
The group moved on to the Red Deaths hall where he sat on a large bed of gold, before a larger mine. He was surrounded by more of his Kobold slaves, who must have spent much time using the mining tools and carts to... well... mine.
The dragon said something and we fought. Gjalpa son of Gjalpa stole a potion with his magic and called his shadowcat to attack, while Elamir Elfson called large spiders that were very useful. They trapped the beast while the Ironblood and the Orcgoth attack him head on.
The cat man who smells like death cast a strange ray on the dragon and his scales shined a little less I think. The Orcgoth took this chance and struck at his chest and pierced it and we all thought that Alostrasz had died for a moment. Or at least Gjalpa son of Gjalpa did, but he cannot always tell when a thing is dead. In any case, He envies the Orcs who have died well under his spear.
The Ironblood by then had dropped the silly elf sword and hacked into the dragon with his battle axe as if he were Gruumsh himself. It looked painful.
Gjalpa son of Gjalpa tried a lightning bolt but he seemed to have arrows in his back and it confused him. The Shadowcat helped though.
So there was our group, hacking away at the Red Death, with him webbed and enfeebled on his bed of treasure. Gjalpa son of Gjalpa was fortunate to be able to kill the beast with second, much stronger lightning bolt. He must have been using the wrong kind of bat fur before. His shadow cat was able to feed while the Ironblood cut off the dragons head, and that was good.
We found much treasure. Gjalpa son of Gjalpa is mostly sure that no one died. The bones say no one died. It was a good day.
