Recent Adventures
The Underworld (Session 30): The Feinting GOATs
arrived in the Bronze‑Age city of Nimmur, where the stone‑skinned King
Gilgamesh refused to help them fight the magma‑titan Khumbaba unless
they could restore his fallen brother‑in‑arms, Enkidu. Seizing on this
grief, the party descended through the Tomb of Forgotten Soldiers into
the Underworld, bypassing cursed relics and solving ancient Nergali
puzzle‑doors, only to discover that Hades (not Nergal or Anubis) now
ruled the realm and allowed no souls to leave. After learning from a
frantic assistant of Hephaestus that the only escape was to overthrow
the ruler himself, they confronted Hades in a mythic battle,
shattering his divine wards with Adrian’s God‑Killer Gun and erasing
him from existence. Elyndra’s impulsive attempt to claim the throne
annihilated her mortal body, prompting Hephaestus to offer Immortal
Barding in exchange for protection; Loarkin accepted, endured the
ascension, and became the new God of the Underworld. He summoned
Enkidu’s spirit, who chose not to return but instead granted his
primal essence to Korloth. With a divine send‑off and a triumphant
return to Nimmur (Elyndra restored but forever changed) Gilgamesh
opened the way to Khumbaba’s volcanic lair, where the GOATs, empowered
and battle‑hardened, slew the Titan and sealed his essence in the
Anubis Box, closing another chapter of their increasingly god‑shaking
saga.

Unleash the Kraken! (Session 31): The Feinting GOATs
traveled to the Zeus‑worshipping city of Dios seeking a way to defeat
the Kraken, only to be saddled with the pompous hero Perseus, who
rebranded them as the “Caprinauts” and dragged them through a gaudy,
self‑promotional quest itinerary. After killing Calibos and
discovering he had already slain Medusa, they secured her head and
consulted the Stygian Witches, learning both that Marinka was secretly
Baba Yaga and that any Titan they released would require a mortal
“conscience.” Returning to Dios, they persuaded the Old Man of the
Sea—actually Zeus in disguise; to summon the Kraken, leading to a
heroic battle in which Lenti petrified the colossal monster with
Medusa’s gaze. As the Anubis Box absorbed the Kraken’s essence, Zeus
flung himself inside as well, leaving the stunned party holding a
god‑filled prison while Perseus strutted off to publicize his latest
“victory.”

Snake Charmer (Session 32):
The Feinting GOATs traveled to Bubastis seeking Apophis,
only to learn from the amused Goddess Bast, channeled through High
Priestess Neferbasti and compensated by a night with Korloth, that she
had already slain and dismembered the serpent into nine pieces
scattered across deadly temple trials, which the party then conquered
through wit, grit, and occasional humiliation. After retrieving every
segment, from outwitting a Liar Priest to scent matching statues,
solving ancient harmonies, blinding obsidian guardians, and using an
eclipse cast fungal shadow to open the final shrine, they prepared to
let the Anubis Box absorb the remains, only for Seth, the Red Storm,
to descend in fury; a brutal battle followed, ending with the GOATs
barely defeating the god. As the Box consumed Apophis’s parts, Bast
impulsively dove inside as well, trapping herself with the other
deities, and the exhausted party was left stranded on a remote
floating island until they unearthed and reactivated an ancient Pylon,
finally returning, battered, triumphant, and carrying an increasingly
overcrowded divine prison, to Enik’s cave.
