repositioned atop enlarged Celeste Valentin for better attack angles - Translated the infernal summoning circle runes in session 1; chose not to take the claw - Spotted Ara-Ara Avannatto hiding during the ambush in session 3 - Longinus has 6 Spirit Guardian charges — track usage carefully - **Session 2026-07-01:** Tried to negotiate with the goristro guards ("I will not cross Baphomet" — failed); anchored the fight with Spirit Guardians; tanked a fist-and-hoof barrage (14 + 27) without dropping concentration; Silvery Barbs negated a hit; landed a Divine Smite on an opportunity attack (table ruling confirmed); drank a potion of healing; Lay on Hands down to 1 point. - **Session 2026-07-08:** Landed a critical hit that killed the first goristro; second turn opened with Hexblade's Curse into a triple Eldritch Blast for ~37 damage; identified a Potion of Diminution during the rest; her bag of holding was found to be (unknowingly) carrying the preserved body of [[Reference/Campaign/Characters/Ara-Ara Avannatto|Ara-Ara Avannatto]]'s brother — a distressing discovery for Ara-Ara. - **Session 2026-07-15:** Broke stealth at the War-Slough sentry tower to bluff two devil guards, invoking Jack's death ("Jack got it easy...") and casting Cause Fear (DC 18) on one; got carried past the checkpoint as a fake "prisoner" by a polymorphed Celeste, playing along telepathically once warned; encounter resolved with zero combat. - **Session 2026-07-22:** Took the demon swarm's full attention early ("For Herfordorf!"), summoned Spirit Guardians via Longinus while mounted on Celeste, and survived two separate corpse worms trying to swallow her whole before finishing the fight on foot with Eldritch Blast and a demon-sinew sling. - **Session 2026-07-29:** Dismounted to search the ground for whatever was agitating the Canyon Trove's worms; cast Sanctuary, then burned *locate object* on a spell the DM had warned would fail rather than metagame the warning — the Slough's distortions returned a horn, then another, then another. In the fight with Lurr the nalfeshnee she landed Hexblade's Curse, hit with **Longinus** and buried a **3rd-level Divine Smite for 38** (the biggest hit of the night), was the only PC to save against his frightening burst, and made a completely sincere pitch inviting the demon to join the party. Ends the session holding a readied Longinus attack + **Thunderous Smite**. - **Session 2026-08-12:** Spirit Guardians and its delayed damage helped finish Lurr as he fled. A flesh warp transformed her arms into finger-tipped tentacles with 5 feet of extra reach; she opened the shredwing ambush with Eldritch Blast, survived 47 damage when one merged with her shoulders, and repeatedly used Silvery Barbs before Unit-NULL commanded the fiend to release her. - **Session 2026-08-19:** Opened with three connecting Eldritch Blasts, then **Shielded away an entire shredwing multiattack** (all three talons) and drew the fiend's last, whiffed gasp. Established a standing rules point — **Silvery Barbs works on a friendly creature's success**, allowed by the DM — though the bonus-action-leveled-spell interaction was deferred to a Crawford ruling. Failed one Slough save (total 2), was restored by [[Reference/Campaign/Characters/Ara-Ara Avannatto|Ara-Ara Avannatto]], and **cast Alarm on the campsite**, which is the only reason the hezrou ambush didn't catch the party surprised — and the reason [[Reference/Campaign/Characters/Celeste Valentin|Celeste Valentin]] got to sleep. Named all five hezrou **"Jeremy."** In the fight: passed **both DC 14 stench saves** for 24-hour hezrou-stench immunity, then hit twice with **Longinus** (Thunderous Smite for 16, then 14 piercing with Topple) and lost both riders to **back-to-back natural 20s**. Carries Death Ward from [[Reference/Campaign/Characters/Tahara Rahma|Tahara Rahma]]. - **Session 2026-09-03:** (Player absent — run as an NPC by Gabe, riding in Celeste's saddle.) *"For Herfordorf!"* — Longinus hits for 11 and 17 (topples saved), passed the stench save, and stayed seated through a near-fall. - **Session 2026-09-10:** Back after being run as an NPC the week before. Feather Fall ×2 got the party down; then she **stabbed a sleeping hezrou ("Jeremy") and woke the entire hatchery** — every ichor hose popped. First use of **Hexblade's Curse** on this character. Longinus ×3 hits, Interception to save Celeste from a crit, and three Eldritch Blasts with **Repelling Blast** slamming Jeremy into the wall — *"Fuck on out of here, Jeremy."* - **Session 2026-09-17:** Dismounted by sliding down Longinus like a fire pole, raised **Spirit Guardians** (curse bonus applies), Shielded Jeremy's claws — *"Not today, Jeremy"* — and used Silvery Barbs twice. Took a 21 bite and a 14 crit and held concentration. **Killed Jeremy:** Misty Step, Longinus + 3rd-level Divine Smite (37), then a crit with a second 3rd-level smite that split him in two, cauterized. Low on low-level slots.
