Thoul’s Night Out

Hardrun Valley Solo B/X Campaign #2

This second foray into the Old Shrine north of Thorp was a pretty quick session, but an eventful one!

I’m trying to stick with the Moldvay Basic booklet, but I still like to reflavor or reskin stuff just for my own imagination and enjoyment.

Here, the undead boss of the second dungeon level is statted as a Thoul - a 3HD monster with regeneration and paralysis special attack.

Poor fellow never stood a chance against my crack team of adventurers. All that time waiting down in the dark just to get brained in one round!

We’re pretty high fantasy here, and I decided to allow the PCs to check each time a few weeks have passed if the small chapel of Val has any potions available - this time they did, and so I set the price at 500gp

Making notes re: future quests is a staple for me when ending a session that resolves the current quest - keeps me motivated to continue!

The next session is a little bit longer - these bandits are growing bold and preparing a raid on the small village of Thorp!

Things get dicey and the party may not all survive.

Catch you next time - keep your blades sharp!
