Hi, everyone.

Thanks so much for your interest. This game wrapped in late 2023, but -- again -- thanks for your interest.

Presently have space left for one individual if anyone's interested...

Ahahahahaaa! Chaotic evil for the win!

I'll send you an invite shortly, @Feuerrabe

Party is mid-way through the adventure, having defeated the SPOILER and making their way to SPOILER2 in order to SPOILER345678910.

This module is nearly finished. The PCs are attempting to locate the leader of the Barn Door.

This game recently posted a recruitment notice. The PCs are in Elturel and preparing to descend to Avernus once recruitment has wrapped.

This game is nearly complete. A recruitment call recently went out. Otherwise, the game is in the last chapter with the PCs in the tomb itself.

Hi-hi!

So, this game ran for eons. Was a lot of fun, and our heroes survived. Went through many, many iterations of the party itself, but was very happy to have shared the experience with so many wonderful people along the way.

Still interested.

Thanks for confirming, wapsii.

Basic deets -- this game's typically updated 1x/week. Party's on the 4th level of the tomb, and it's definitely had plenty of opportunities to be deadly. Am using Roll20 for maps, but am doing the movement myself based on feedback/input.

For survivability, you may want to bring Ian, but -- for experience / levels -- you may want to bring Alsonton.

Hello fellow adventurers!

Are you ready to plunge into the fiery depths of Avernus and join a daring band of heroes on a quest to save a city from infernal doom? We're is looking for brave souls to join our current party on their perilous journey in Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus.

Current Party Line-Up:

1. Kahlyn Ahlorsath - Played by rogueblade0729, Kahlyn is a valiant Triton Paladin (Level 6), wielding holy might to vanquish the denizens of darkness.
2. Acwan - Portrayed by TricksterArcane, Acwan is a crafty Human Wild Magic Armorer (Artificer 6/Barbarian 4), a master of both arcane gadgetry and raw, untamed power.
3. Callous - Brought to life by Quint Essence, Callous is a fearsome Tiefling Biter (Barbarian 4/Fighter 3), a terror on the battlefield who revels in the thrill of close combat.

Current Quest:
Our party is currently in Elturel, a city on the brink of ruin, teetering on the edge of being dragged into the infernal abyss. The next leg of our journey will take us into the very heart of Hell — Avernus itself — as we seek a means to break the diabolical chains pulling Elturel toward its doom.

We Need YOU!
We're looking for a couple more adventurers to bolster our ranks. Ideal candidates are those who enjoy rich role-playing, tactical combat, and are ready to face the challenges of the Nine Hells. We encourage creativity and a good sense of camaraderie.

If you're interested in joining this epic campaign, please reply to this message or send a DM to QuirkyJoe. Let us know about your character concept and why they would be a perfect fit for this infernal adventure!

Dare to descend with us and become legends in the making. Hell awaits!

Hi! it has been awhile since I've been here and all the changes look great! I'd love to join whatever game, looks like all my old chars are still here and could bring any of them

Can bring either Alsonton Folkor, gnome warlock or Ian the Freckled human monk

Sorry, sajison & wapsii. Was convinced I'd responded to both of you sometime last week.

If you're still interested, we'd appreciate having you. As mentioned, the group is fairly deep into the tomb at this point, so the dangers are real.

Apart from potentially bringing in a 5th level PC (unless you've an existing character that's a higher level), what specifics are you interested in, @Siryuu? Adventure so far, what the module's all about, etc.? Let me know more & I'll fill in the blanks as best I'm able.

Dear DM & Fellow Adventurers,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to share with you all that I will be withdrawing from our play-by-post game due to personal reasons. It's a decision I've not taken lightly, but one that I feel is necessary at this time.

I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for the incredible adventures we've shared together. Your creativity, camaraderie, and dedication to our characters and the story have made this journey truly unforgettable.

While I'm sad to say goodbye, I take comfort in knowing that our paths may cross again in the future. Until then, I wish you all the best in your ongoing adventures within the realm of tabletop gaming and beyond.

Thank you for the memories and may your dice always roll in your favor.

Warm regards,

QuirkyJoe

Paavu winces at the axebeak's response. She's known others within her former clan who could converse with beasts, but that skill wasn't one she'd acquired and she was certain from the expressions on the faces of her companions that none of them were too pleased with the brash response the creature gave. There was a good chance they'd all be discovered in short order.

Focusing once more on her crossbow, she ensured that the weapon was loaded, the string set, and the trigger at the ready. They couldn't afford any more mistakes right now. There was no telling what they'd come across and whether they'd be outnumbered.

"Fairly certain I haven't, Kat, but you remember what the past few weeks have been like for us. All manner of strangeness, of tiny kingdoms emerging within ruins and nearby hills..."

Georg shakes his head rather tiredly, then -- as though internally considering much the same as Lotham and prioritizing in-town searches as opposed to those that might lead to situational danger -- responds to the group at large, saying, "Shrine ought to be pleasant enough. Shall we head off, then?"

To Mercedes, he adds, "Well, that's your call, honestly. We know that the goblins were kind enough to wreak havoc within Phandalin proper, and suspect that they've spent enough time in the area to pluck other stones and precious oddities for whatever devious gains they've a mind to. I've no doubt that you can handle yourself. Still, safety in numbers," capping his final statement off with a quite series of raised eyebrows.
