Session 2

After running through the Mill's basement and removing the evil priestly types, our heroes returned to the Inn of the Welcome Wench to celebrate. The next morning, a paladin(Matt) arrives at the inn asking for Xaod, and being introduced to the party. Casting Detect Evil on everyone who enters the inn. He finds the baker, a woman, radiates evil. So they get up and follow her as she delivers her baked goods around town. Eventually asking her if she knows Karlun, to which she replies, "Of course I do, hes the miller." So off to check the millers house, which they find open and Karlun and his wife murdered inside. A passerby alerts Elmo, the militia captain, and he arrives shortly with a few of Burne's Badgers. Elmo figures out that the party couldn't have done it because they are two plus days old. He mentions that black robed men sighted east of town again, and mentions to Cabel(Matt) that his buddy Xaod went to the moathouse two days ago.
So off to the moathouse the party goes. Two days travel uneventful.
The dilapidated fortress is quiet so they enter. Upon entering the great hall the monk(Mark) spots the dragon slinking in a shadowed hallway. Combat ensues and its back and forth but the dragon dies while doing a decent amount of damage. Exploring the rest of the upper story they find little and move down the stairs.
Two gnoll guards attack at the bottom of the stairs and are just as quickly taken out. They find a prison room and Xaod manacled to a pillar with a ghast gnawing on him, still alive. They free him and Spugnoir, who explains that these evil priests are excavating the lower levels, and continue exploring. They find a priest with two gnoll guards cataloging artifacts on a blanket. It takes like three rounds and they are all dead, the closet full of undead unused. Finding a secret door that continues down... they rest.

Does Xaod rhyme with choad?

Just trying to get my phonic bearings here =)

What lvl characters are they running?

We didn't kill the cleric lady, only the two gnoll guards. We need to question her yet.

We were fourth for that session, we are now fifth.

Pretty much going a level a session. Should match up perfectly to reach epic, all while letting you figure out how to play your toons.
It was fun last night. I just rolled bad, sigh.
