Argonloft Adventures, session 2: Stolen Baby Dragon

While the first game played two years ago was intended to be a one shot, I am now using this setting for a drop-in-and-out campaign - meaning that the setting and its history will remain consistent, but the modular nature of the adventures allows for players to drop in, out, or switch characters between sessions. As you can see above, I have created a map of Argonloft in WonderDraft.

Starring:

Venis (Aaron) - wood elf ranger.

Lorthal (Kye) - human Draconic sorcerer.

Smirnoff (Paul) - human mastermind rogue, master of disguises and insane stunts, catchphrase is "DEATH OR GLORY!".

At the Lost Fox Inn, the party inspected a list of 9 posters on the Quest/Ad board, and decided to go to Rosés Reptile Farm to ask for more info on a missing dragon poster they'd put out. Rosé Ginger-Root, the Dwarven reptile breeder, informed them that the missing dragon was a white wyrmling called Snowball, about the size of a large dog. The locks on the enclosure appeared blasted open from the outside with fire-breath, and sets of three dragonborn footprints were found leading away into the forest. The party avoided traps and zombies in the forest, and encountered an abandoned tower that the dragonborn were hiding out in. The party failed to sneak up on the dragonborn, but Smirnoff did manage to lasso the white dragonborn necromancer (the source of the zombies in the forest) and the blue dragonborn assassin rogue from a nearby treetop and drag them both out of the highest window of the tower, sending them plummeting to their deaths. Lorthal and Venis fought the remaining red dragonborn axe-wielding barbarian once they reached the top of the tower, and retrieved Snowball. However, Snowball was stuck in an intricate cage with three magic locks that needed to be opened with fire, cold, and electricity, a feat that would have been easy for the three types of dragonborn. Lorthal had fire and cold covered, but Venis headed back into town to see if he could find someone or something magical that could provide the electricity - at Old Man Butz Ugly Stuff Hut, a scrap-heap warehouse of random junk and magical artefacts, he managed to find a glove of Shocking Grasp. Rosé was delighted to have Snowball back.
