The Arcadia News Network is an un-bias, true-news media outlet reporting all the major stories from around Arcadia!

Dicing with Death

In this episode of Malcifers Necromantic journey we see our dark lord take lilith under his wing and she becomes his assistant in preparing the dead to be raised. As Malcifer prepares for a strike from pinespur he begins suspecting that a nearby village may be housing pinespur troops. Malcifer goes to deal with said village but is forced into a retreat. Upon the end of the session Malcifer begins plotting a plan to raise the 280ish corpses in the graveyard of Winter’s Reach.

Shenanigans

Unfortunately it has been two weeks since we have been able to put out any articles. That means there has been two episodes of Shenanigans. If you missed either of them, you missed gold. Two weeks ago Bergshire was overrun by Dragons. Turns out Bergshire is the ancestral mating grounds of Dragons and it just so happens that it is mating season. One dragon that had a major issue. He was suffering through a sickness during mating season. So to deal with this the party is shrunk and sent inside of the dragon. You’ve heard of a dungeon crawl, well how about a dragon crawl?

The most recent episode of Shenanigans is a must watch. We were introduced to probably a top five best NPC in any of the Arcadiaverse shows, The Kobold Necromancer. I know your thinking this was probably an episode with long drug out combats about fighting the undead. You are wrong in this notion. By the end of the episode you will be loving this little pup and praying the players spare him. Spoiler, they do. Sadly we can’t say that about everyone. Rest in peace Gwathir!

In our last article we started a new award! That award is “player character of the week.” DMs are players too. This week’s PCOTW award goes to Neal for his RP of the Kobold Necromancer!

Maybe we should rebrand the award as role player of the week? 🤔

Gnomes, Tomes and Catacombs

Two weeks ago on GT&C we saw the party arrive to the Talens. As always with GT&C the Shenanigans unfolded. Sometimes I think these players think they are in Bergshire. Maybe the Talens should be renamed New Bergshire. Why? Well instead of killing the young Yetis the GT&C players took them as their children. Fast forward one week and one of the Yeti Children are dead and the other one is shaved and taken into the city. The party finds the city to not be welcoming of the shaved yeti child or even themselves. There is a price on the head of the party. The session wraps up with a plan to head to the land of Count Viscious. We here at the ANN are considering running bets on how long it takes “Big Daddy Vee” to kill the cast. Though with a cleric of Voraci in the ranks of the party maybe they will find a new home in the land of Count Viscious.

Akuba Knights

Two weeks ago on Akuban Knights we saw the party leave the Barbarian lands they had made home with the goal of breaking into the sparksteel tomb. They spent a good part of the session sneaking into the city and trying to break into the tomb. At the end of the session the goal was met and they were in and this week was spent dungeon crawling. This was a dungeon crawl session that had everything you could hope for in a dungeon. Skeletons, Treasure, Mystery and even Zombie Alagators. Some people believe that when you run a dungeon crawl that RP is lost, WRONG! If you think this is so you need to watch this session. In the end though the entire tomb was not raided. The Party was forced to withdrawl. Thankfully treasure was already secured. One can only wonder what else remained.

Frozen Frontier

The Frozen Frontier has officially wrapped up. Three weeks ago was the final session and two weeks ago we saw a Q&A post session. Check out the following doc that had many of the questions that were asked and then also some answers that were filled in by McTacky as the session progressed!
