The Lost Bay

Kaldor originaly had a C Bay attached the the spacecraft. When found… it is submerged with water.
Sparticus activates the drainpumps and pumps it out. Kaldor finds inside his missing power armor.

Also in the woods he heard a howling of a bloodhound..later he finds a Bloodhound pup with a Kreegorian colar, aparently a gift from his mother which broke free during the crash. One of the crates apparently held a second pup which is now gone.

Bay C has crashed into the ocean 30 feet offshore of the south western tip of Atlantis.

The Kaldor, Sparticus, Drago and Mike manage to find the ship in the Ocean but it is not unguarded…

Out of the water come tentacles from a slavers and 4 altarans seem to be checking over the wrecked bay.

1 clearly
visible floating outside the ship while the women check inside
the other is in the nearby stream of the swamp submurged bathing, it bursts forth if anyone attacks

There is a mighty battle, Drago is entagled by tentacles and teleports to the tree to regain PPE.
Kaldor is also entangled before sparticus frees one arm by shocking the tentacle with his electric aura.

Celdor then drops a belt of grenades into the water, destroying all the tentacles in the blass and driving off the slaver.

One Altaran was wounded and eaten by the Kreegor Bloodhound.

One was punched and landed unknown.

Two fled when they saw the slaver so severly damaged and fleeing (it took 750SDC in one attack from a full belt of plasma grenades to the deck of its hover pod which was just below the surface of the water during the attack.

Sparticus and Drago got whisps of confusion cast at them and were slowed during the fight…

They also manage to haul out the following salvage from bay C:

4 Kreegor Power Generators (10year 1gigwat, 500lbs each) 5′ cubes

8 super conductive cables 10ft long 100lbs

2 High Power Lights 50lbs

5 Air Purifiers 250lbs each 5ft’ cubes

Also occuring sometime around the location of the Lost Bay:

back at the main wrecked ship aka UNDERTOWN:

A slime shower in random atlantis weather. Everything is covered in little slimes. Drago burns most of them off the ship and surrounding area believing them to be poison.


Kaldor names his Kreegorian bloodhound “MAR-SHUK”

Everyones gear, clothes and bodies are muddy from living out in the wilderness for so long.

Drago also teleports back to his entombed Demon Unicorn body 10 miles west of Tolkeen. names it Thumper and prepares for its mumification.

Around this time Kaldor falls in love with Hawk Duhk flesh and starts going on frequent hunting trips for them.

Kaldor kills a male duhk protecting its female and egg clutch, and then steal the eggs and leaves the female to live. She starts crying and screaming at him.

Kaldor eats alot of eggs and Duhk flesh, failing to preserve one properly he taints the meat with its bowels. He gives the tainted meat to some kids who eat it… and get sick later. Currently the euro faction dislikes Celdor because of this. (hes also evicted them to the hole drago dug next to the ship which has since been militarily fortified with scrap by Mike.

During his second hunt Kaldor finds 3 Hawk Duhks in a war canoe. He engages them. The canoe has a balista which fires make shift explosives.

He kills two of the warriors and the balista firer flees into the water. The Canoe is left floating in a river near the swampy section of the northwestern bay of Atlantis.

Also while hunting Kaldor finds a Cockatrice. It doesnt come that close to petrifying him before he slays it. (damn +9 vs magic i need to audit this…)

Drago sees magic energy coming towards him and being intercepted by a giant Dragonfly.

Finally after the fly eats a few he gets a Magic Pidgeon from Soribold Vask, Lord of Letters and the standing Associate Dean of the Tolkeen School of Magic.

Earlier Drago had applied, and now the Tolkeen School of magic will offer reduced time required learning in exchange for the rescue of thier professor on leave to Atlantis, Doc Beltrov. He was last seen on the western edge of Atlantis conducting dimensional experiments in the unstable conditions there, or so his grant said.

To any who dont need magic he offers each member of the party a magnificient 5 carat emerald from a pouch he carries on her person. (aprox 100k cr value)

Vask explains
“Beltrov is an elite Hawrk-duhk of unusual intelligence. Leader of a small group of refugees from atlantis, his people now regret their ancestors decision to enter rifts earth and settle atlantis, instead following Beltrov in his search for a rift back home to Mother Swamp, the Hawrk-duhk home dimension. His people were still by in large enslaved and oppressed by the Gargoyles to the West. Beltrov has been organizing slave freeing raids their and freeing whoever they can. His troops operate out of hidden underwater bases on the southwestern side of the preserves. He typically made a yearly pilgramidge back to his homeworld with a cadre of hired mystical mercenaries, freeing as many slaves as he could before fleeing back to the mainland.”

If they accept they are invited to the estate of Vask introduces himself, he is a 8ft lizard mage who is rumored to have unlocked the very secrets of rune magic itself. That being said, many rumors say he was offered the position of Dean in hopes that he would teach some of this knowledge in time to the hopefuls of Tolkeen Academia.

After Drago accepts the job Vask explains.

“Beltrov was very curious, especialy about interdemnsional phenomena and species. He was a xenobologist and renowned for his knowledge of thousands of rare species from many worlds. He was also a trained linguist and decifered many ancient languages. Very secretive, he kept the details of most of his work secret only releasing a few public papers about his finds.

We know this, he was in the Atlantis preserves looking for a strange rock carrying symbols such as these:



They all contain the theme of an interlinking star shaped object, its purpose is unknown.

These symbols are very close to those that Kaldor was sent to look for, Dragos believes them to be Dwarven runes.

The bounty Kaldor was sent Earth to claim was for a short stocky humanoid who used similar symbols.

Kaldor was supposed to lock onto a set of coordinates and nuke the site from orbit, but the ship was disabled by earths orbital defense grid before this happened. Celdor does remember that the coordinates were somewhere on western Atlantis..

After resting the Drago, Keldor and Sparticus go North east of Undertown looking for rumors of the witch. Raul claims his men found signs of her there.

She has put a wasting sickness onto the area of Undertown.

Wandering that way they find another huge crashed ship.

It is leaking green goo.

Drago sploshes around in the Goo. Sparticus senses low power from the goo and the ship.

They also find many Kittani corpses and strange ritualistic fetishes made from animal flesh covered in bloody symbols.

Drago senses evil magic and destroys the fetishes with his fire breath.

In the trees around the clearing made by the crashed ship hang many corpses.

They find tracks leading away from the site, into a gully. There Drago sees more piles of corpses covered in water and green goo which has washed down the ravine to pool there.

Drago feels very sick after this, he takes about 200HP damage (d4×10HP/minute or so of exposure to direct radiation leak from the primary core of the crashed Kitanni ship. ITs coolant is leaking badly).

So they rest for awhile…while Sparticus rebuilds the ship and labels things in English by burning in letters with his electricity.

They rest for four days after the radiation poisoning knocks out Drago’s normal regenerative abilities.
