HighRollers: Lightfall/Episode 11

"Rollercoaster of Emotions!" is the eleventh session of High Rollers D&D. It was broadcast live on the Yogscast Twitch channel on April 10, 2016.

In this session, the adventurers decide not to confront the Broken Sky after discovering the death of Vixanis and continue their journey to Talis'Val. However, Cam unintentionally killed Dimitriv, affecting the group dynamics and he is now branded as a murderer.

Campaign Summary
The adventurers discover the death of Vixanis with a note warning them not to probe the Broken Sky further. Cam, who is the only person left in the cave, walks to her body and gives a prayer to Avandra, commemorating Vixanis' life. Jiǔtóu and Trellimar investigate further to find any signs of struggle prior to her death but did not find any physical signs of torture, although the way the cut on the neck was executed suggests magic could be involved. They also notice that she has been dead for about two days, around the time just before they entered Feyden. As the last thing Jiǔtóu could remember is that Vixanis was with them back in Tallfield, Elora and Trellimar inform Jiǔtóu of her last known location, that she is travelling to Briarcrest. They then discuss whether they were the direct cause of her death until Trellimar voices out that she was looking for a dwarven thief and that might be the cause of her death instead.

After discussing whether or not they should engage with the Broken Sky, they decide that is is better to head on to Talis'Val and confront them there. Despite the decision, Jiǔtóu feels that they should at least know Broken Sky's reason to weaken the Dawn Republic by heading to Briarcrest. Unbeknown to them, she feels that her agenda may be aligned with Broken Sky's.

Cam, Elora and Jiǔtóu stay to give a burial for Vixanis while Trellimar heads back to town and collects his armour from the blacksmith. The group then rejoins back at the tavern.
