Session XXX Summary:

The Drogans navigate to the area with the skeletons and sarcophagi.

Double doors and altars to Bahamut, the Platinum dragon, lie to the East.

Zook wonders why the Lawful Good deity would be in Shadowfell Keep.

Coltaine recalls the keep once protected a rift to the Shadowfell, presuming good people once lived here to ward off evil.

The Drogans move through the double doors into a crypt with a single coffin.

Rekoj messes with the coffin lid, prompting the lid to explode in a flurry of dust. A skeletal knight emerges from the cloud, its breastplate emblazed with a dragon's head.

It croaks: "The rift must never be reopened. State your intentions, or prepare to die!"

The group faces its first skill challenge: to convince the knight that they have noble intentions.

The knight says, "I am sworn to defend this keep against interlopers. What brings you here?"

Rekoj and Coltaine succeed on their diplomacy checks, but Zook, Autumn, and Win'tyr fail their skill checks, costing the Drogans the skill challenge.

The knight calls the Drogans villains and battle commences.

By round 7, the Drogans are unscathed, and they've dealt over 125 damage to the knight.

The skeleton says, "I am Sir Keegan; I must not fail again." He chops into Rekoj for 39 damage.

Coltaine deals a devastating blow that leaves the skeleton visibly wounded.

Sir Keegan mutters a prayer to Bahamut. A burst of light wounds all of the Drogans.

Rekoj insists the Drogans are just defending themselves, despite the fact they have Sir Keegan cornered and have been dealing terrible, terrible damage to him, while most of Sir Keegan's attacks have missed.

The knight takes offense to the goliath's words and cuts him down to the ground.

As Win'tyr deals the killing blow to Sir Keegan, the knight speaks his final words: "I have failed once again to vanquish the minions of evil."

After 14 rounds of what was the Drogans' most boring battle ever, during which Sir Keegan only managed to land a blow once every three rounds, the session ends.
