Looking through an old folder I found some notes on the last few seven session of the ASE campaign that started this blog back in 2012. I've decided to maybe write a few up and see where it goes. This is the first, starting directly after this Play Report. I think this season was played late 2012 or something, before Huxley's player had a kid.
Huxley McTeeth - (m) Fighter (Lvl 2) - Short, strong, grizzled, armored, and wielding a magic white saber from the tomb of a Rocket Man.

SUNDAY MORNING COMING DOWN
|
Geof Darrow - A Denethix Street Scene? |
Back in their dingy apartment, covered in the tiny scabs of grunkie inflicted wounds, Huxley, Nell, Lemon, Grimgrim and Drusilla wake to another day, stunned and sore and for the first time cannot begin an immediate debauch, the last bottle of hooch purloined from the depths of the Old Brewery having been spilled down Lemon's sweaty torso the night before.
The booze brought back from their last adventure may be gone, but the desperation lingers. Nell's arm set in a crude cast, but clearly broken to the point where even Grimgrim's divinely aided ministrations won't quickly restore it to functionality. The band needs a rest, a long rest, preferably somewhere peaceful, but it seems doubtful that their enemies will allow them one. It's been a week since the raid on the Old Brewery's lower levels and each of the adventurers knows there will be a price to pay. It's not clear who will come to collect, the Unyielding Fist, drug running gangsters, the death cult of Furter, or even Drusilla's anthropophagic relatives - but a debt has come due and payment is going to be rough.
