Welcome to the Inglorious Bards!

Come join the Inglorious Bards on their first adventure of the campaign. Follow the not-so-harrowing tales of Avius the wizard, Puck the goblin healer, Elmon the archer, and Olgrim the drunken dwarf as they tangle with cultists, rescue a homeless man from drowning, and unceremoniously get mugged. Our group of adventurers take it upon themselves to attempt to foil the plans of evil cultists. Having garnered information that the cult was expecting a special shipment coming into port upon the ship, The Duke's Castle, the group has decided to intercept the cultists and the learn more about this mysterious shipment. We join them as they watch the ship from a safe vantage. Listen in as the group attempts to stop the cultists' plans while they encounter a persistent mugger, begrudgingly throw a drowning man a rope, and end up with more questions than answers from the mystery cargo.

Come join the irreverent adventures of the Inglorious Bards as they dish out pain on their enemies and really bad jokes on the rest of us.

Join the Inglorious Bards as they attend a dinner party, discover why you never leave a disgruntled goblin alone in a kitchen, and battle a magical construct. The Inglorious Bards return to dry land from their commission to chart an island. Stumbling into near immediate employment upon their return, they find themselves acting as guesst and bodyguards at a dinner party over watching some of the cities aristocrats. While Puck tests the limits of his host's employees and the rest of the party works to keep the silverware on the table, the true intent of the party is revealede, leaving the party to wonder if the events were connected or opportunity

Our heroes pursue several clues to the location of the Grey Ascent, a magic trinket coveted by many. Following a lead, the group battles more constructs, gets tangled up in the thieve's guild, and follow a bloody trail to more clues. An old enemy of the Bards returns with dangerous consequences.  

With Olgrim Shield biter taken away by cultists, the rest of the heroes search desperately for their friend, seeking out a previous acquaintance hoping he will have information on Olgrim's abductors. They gain an ally and pave a path through a fanatical enemy force determined to prevent them from rescuing their companion.

Having recovered their companion from the Chaos Cultists, the party quickly runs into trouble from an unexpected source. Their honesty is put to the test, and they struggle with a choice which may haunt them in the future. Avius does his best not to provoke another grandfather clock, and Puck continues to antagonize anyone foolish enough to slight him.

Puck finds new and old ways to confound those that have spurned him. Elmon finally figures out a knack for persuasion, and Avius proves how useful he is with manual labor.

The heroes return to the sewers to exterminate more ratmen, find themselves challenged crossing a deep channel of sludge, and end up blocked by an odd pool of water. A secret is discovered that leads to an old construction below the city with an air of mystery.

Leaving behind their experience against the dark specters, our heroes continue to battle their way through the sewers. Olgrim figures out why multiplication can be dangerous on their way to the heart of the rats' nest where Avius and Puck shine. After leaving the sewers and recuperating at Middle Hawks inn, the heroes attend a faire where Olgrim and Puck get slathered in mud.

This week the Bards find themselves facing a primitive tribe of frog like creatures called Bogligs. They are tasked with a challenge of cunning and strength to prove their worth to the tribe. Some of the heroes shine and impress the Bogligs while others provide comic relief. After the competition, the Bards find themselves in a battle for their lives. When things finally start to seem to be going their way, a new enemy rises up and proves to be the greatest challenge they have faced so far.

After managing to defeat the kaken hatchling, the heroes return to the boglig village, tell their story, and speak to the chief. Spending the night in the village, Olgrim and Puck are presented with an interesting dilemma with very different results. The heroes finally meet the man the bogligs have been healing. The group decides to head back towards more familiar ground but takes a detour to investigate an old temple they saw on their way to the boglig village.
