So, it sounds like Wrex will stop DMing this, as timezones, player compatibility, and other factors have caused him to deem the game a failure.
However, what I've accomplished sets the stage perfectly for a 'last hurrah' game. I beat up a single fishman, who was in fact pretending to be the mayor of a city (not Sillb, it is probably named Dodge). When I went through his paperwork, I discovered that he was being paid exorbitant sums of money to transport citizens of the town to a cave in the west to be either eaten or used as slaves (terrible handwriting). Checking the local prison, I discovered that the warden and all the guards had fled, probably to the cave. Going through their papers, I found out just how much they'd been paid and where they kept it. A couple of floorboards later, I was in possession of an astounding 10k platinum coins! Having earned 50,000 exp for this, I am now a level 4 illusionist and a level 6 thief. I gave most of the money to the families of the departed, retaining 2k platinum to fund my assault on the cave.
So far, I've bought 60 militiamen, a few spells, 250 oil flasks in 5 barrels, and rations for the militia. I still have >8000 gp. If anyone else wants in on this, I'll have dispatched messengers to notify you of the cave, the situation, and the money. Buy any equipment in Sillb, and head directly for the cave, since I'll have arrived before you. What times are you guys available for the assault proper?
