 &lt;td&gt;Lycovyne&lt;/td&gt;

 &lt;td&gt;Cathal&lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;td&gt;67/67&lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;/tr&gt;
 &lt;tr&gt;
 &lt;td&gt;Tim&lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;td&gt;36/36&lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;/tr&gt;
 &lt;tr&gt;
 &lt;td&gt;Seamus&lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;td&gt;78/78&lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We spoke at length with Teos at the bar. He was loquacious in his gratitude and willingly answered our questions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Creel&amp;rsquo;s tower was less than a day&amp;rsquo;s ride from the Horne&amp;rsquo;d Lamb. The good barkeep told the party that to simply touch the walls of Creel&amp;rsquo;s tower was &amp;hellip; dangerous. Creel himself is a good man and had long held commerce and communication with the Inn as well as the surrounding area. Creel&amp;rsquo;s wife had died of some unspecified malady - perhaps plague, all sudden-like, and while Creel was out - and the man had not been the same since. Creel had turned to the dark arts of necromancy in an effort to bring his beautiful wife back to life. Teos had nothing but praise for Illyssa.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Session the Sixty-Second</title><link>https://evilblacksword.us/chapter-5/session-62/</link><pubDate>Sat, 07 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://evilblacksword.us/chapter-5/session-62/</guid><description>&lt;div class="session-title" style="text-align: center; font-size: 1.1rem; font-weight: 600; color: #b94e48; margin-bottom: 0.5rem;"&gt;

 &lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We gave Heimdell&amp;rsquo;s crowns to Harald and Maeve. Menka returned the holy symbol of Odin to Harald&amp;rsquo;s curate, Olaf Iverson.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kyril&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;2 vials of holy water&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Oil of Fiery Burning&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cathal&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gamred the Golden&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; (+3 two-handed sword, double-damage vs clerics in case Menka gets mouthy, plus user can &lt;em&gt;Detect Magic&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Remove Fear&lt;/em&gt; 30&amp;rsquo; radius 1x/day)&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Flint, Cooling His Heels</title><link>https://evilblacksword.us/chapter-5/session-62-pre-flint/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://evilblacksword.us/chapter-5/session-62-pre-flint/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Since Flint was not leveling-up, he killed time in Markheim at the Diamond Spider Tavern, drinking ale and &amp;lsquo;assisting&amp;rsquo; the dancers (i.e. attractive thieves wearing translucent silks) there with robbery of certain customers (&amp;ldquo;marks&amp;rdquo;), most of whom were out-of-towners passing through on caravans, merchants or farmers selling their goods in Markheim.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Diamond Spider was, as you know, the local Thieves&amp;rsquo; Guild in Markheim, headed by the owner/proprietor, Spider Braz, and the retinue of dancers, bouncers and barmaids, all of whom were guildmembers, or at least non-thieves in the know and on the payroll. There was a complex system regarding who called be &amp;ldquo;rolled&amp;rdquo; and who should be left alone, and Flint neither fully understood nor got involved in that.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
