Our heroes journey out into the wild jungles of [[Amusa]] with [[The Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company]] to explore and travel where no mortal has gone before. But quickly they find more then they expected: Kobold villages, massive unusual dragons, strange oozes, rabid [[gnolls]], and a fungal [[demon]] conspiracy that ties to the roots of the very continent. The first expedition of the company concludes with a massive raid on the company's camp by gnolls, Demons, and fungal cultists as the company returns to the great city of [[Galik]] with more questions than answers.

The party also found a large deep red gem, which Paul took back and placed in the hand of Lolth, which causes a secret door to open, revealing a steep staircase going down. When the gem is removed, the door closes. The party took the gem, and left the temple otherwise alone.

*[[Bjorn Shattershield]] sends the group to the west of the basecamp to investigate what seems to be a village of [[Kobold|Kobolds]]. The group arrive at the village, named [[Thinwhistle]], and are greeted by the guards of the village. The group talks their way in civilly and meet with the leader, [[Chief Thrax]].
[TBD]
*They are lead by Thrax through the village that was recently attacked. Thrax explains their has been a new ravenous apex predator that has moved into the area and has started a turf war with the existing apex. The group gets the location of the nest of the current Apex and sets out with some Kobolds from Thinwistle as backup. After inspection of the nesting grounds the group is attacked by scavenger guard drakes. During the combat the Apex dinosaur Anjanath comes back to its nest. The group fights valiantly against the monster and all the kobolds except one is killed. The surviving kobold named [[Hunk]] stood his own against two of the guard drakes and is carried off to safety and healed by the group. As they leave, another dinosaur, the Deviljho, attacks Anjanath and begins to devour it.
*The group heads back to Thinwhistle and reports the events. Thrax takes them down to the hatchery to show the adventurers what they helped save. On the hatchery wall is a faded mural of what appears to be Kobolds depicted as kings ruling above other races....the Kobolds ancestral home of [[Thelrya]].

The largest of which is apparently a dragon. They telepathically reached out to the dragon and asked if the group could help fight the gnolls. The question was met with a cacophony of voices at first but one quickly pushed the rest aside and responds politely that they did not need help and the group would be best to stay out of the situation.

*The group rushed up to attack and Ripjaw called down a flying fire dinosaur, called Pyroquatzal, with his dinosaur controlling gauntlet. During the fight, the party was able to defeat the gnolls and break Ripjaw's control over the Pyroquatzal. Ripjaw and Talon were able to escape, and the party burned away any other fungal spores that were dropped during the fight.

* The Tempest Brother’s company was requested to assist a white dragonborn named [[Alkiir Scalesborn]] in retrieving an artifact from the wilds before [[demon|demonic forces]] could obtain it.

* Inside the ruin the party discovered murals and iconography of ancient dragon battles and fought a demon that was transforming gnoll corpses into ghouls that it would then use to overwhelm the protections of the ruined vault. They then provided proof of having defeated a dragon themselves in order to dismiss a celestial guardian which had been preventing the demonic forces from entering earlier. This led to the relic chamber, which contained an empty pedestal. Digging through the collapsed rear of the chamber revealed the artifact: [[List_of_Magic_Items#D|an obsidian statuette of a dragon with several black opals embedded into it]] within the nest of a giant lizard. They convinced the lizard to part with the object peacefully and failed at an attempt to convince it to follow them back to the camp.

* With the artifact successfully acquired, they returned to Alkiir waiting on the surface and hesitated to give it to him, as they suspect it contains the soul of a black dragon.

===Book 2 Summary===
Recovering from the [[Gnolls|Gnoll]] horde [[The Raid on the Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company|attack on the company's basecamp]], [[The Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company and its many heroic adventurer expeditionaries return to the city of [[Galik]], the largest city in [[Amusa]]. The company learns that the corruption in the wilds stems all the way out to even the city and come to the understanding that if they are to return to the wilds, the evil fungal influence in Galik must be dealt with first. The company learns that all this evil stems from a powerful demoness known as [[Mother]], a being with great power over fungus and rot. Her two leading cultists in the city are [[Alistair Hearthorne|Alistair]] and [[Lenore Hearthorne]], otherwise known as the Bride and Groom.
The company and its members deal with many threats in the city, including criminal cultists, sewer dwelling [[Lycanthrope|werecreatures]], and mysterious statues that channel the power of Mother. After expelling the cult of Mother from the city of Galik and scattering the gnoll hordes at [[The Gnoll Counter-Offensive]], the company prepared to put an end to Mother's evil plans once and for all. Hidden within the wilds was an ancient city known as [[Thelrya]] which hid a major leyline node. Mother hoped to use this node to achieve godhood and so the company moved to stop her. Even after using the remaining statues she had left to raise a fungal army, the company and its heroes were able [[The Thelryan Restoration|to enter Thelrya, kill her greatest servants, and banish her influence from Amusa once and for all]]. Afterward the company gained great fame and rewards and prepared for their next expedition on the eastern half of the continent.
After the [[The Thelryan Restoration|Thelryan Restoration]] megasession was run, a few epilogue sessions were played to wrap up remaining plots in Year 1 of Wicked Wilds and to set up some new ones for Year 2.

*The session started with [[Bjorn Shattershield]] telling the group how he was out with [[Adrian Tempest]] when he received a message from [[The Warden of the Wilds]] asking for help. The party arrived at the Warden's domain where the Warden mentioned how there was some new mutations to the zombies of the swamp and how usually they stayed within the swamp but are now venturing out. They sent the party out and asked them to bring samples or a full specimen back.
TBD
*The groups heads out to the swamp and finds several zombies, strange creatures known as Corpse Lillies and Corpse Mounds, fungal [[Demon|Demons]], and an Alchemist making them stronger. Battle ensues and the Alchemist takes notes from a safe distance with the Demons.
*After a slog the party came out victorious. The group grabs a corpse lilly and bring it to the Warden. They examines it and pulls out a small wooden statuette of [[Mother]] from the mound. The Warden explains that the statue must have been coated in corrupted Celestial energies. They tell the group about the old temple in the swamp that was dedicated to Celestial Deities long ago and how it had a fountain. At this fountain you could get water from the Celestial Realm called 'Tears of a Celestial' and that the enemy has found a way to use it. They also says that Mother's plans must be father along than they first thought.
*As the group overhead the Alchemist mention his creations will be perfect for the upcoming siege. With this new revelation and with the info of the Celestial energies, the Warden implied that Mother aspires to Godhood not just to enter the material plane, as they hunger for more.

*[[Gary the Slime King|"Gary" the Slime King]]  intercepts the group as they were heading to meet up with [[The Warden of the Wilds]]. He asked for their help. Agents of the [[Mother]] had found one of the access points to his underground lair and augmented the slime/ooze summoning power to summon woodland creatures and infect them with [[Myconid]] fungus. Gary sent a green ooze named Squee with the group as a guide to get in.
TBD
*Something serving the fungal mother had taken up residence in the caverns below and established a lair. Because of this, Gary was cut off from that part of his domain. The party hurried to the location and found shambling fungal creatures in the area of the massive tree stump. They were quickly dispatched and from a large patch of mushrooms, an infected bear rose up and attacked them. The party dispatched them all and Squee led them into a secret entrance in the river.
*The group dropped down into a large pool of water that contained old ruins of what looked like a long abandoned hidden sanctum, where they were attacked by a mushroom infected [[Bulette]]. The group moved through the ruins and heard scurrying in front of them, quickly dispatching of a small fungal creature. Moving through the ruins, they came across a section where the water from the pool had breeched into the ruins and created a washout that led to an underground cave network.
*The group came across fungal growth and spider webs, and as they moved through the area, they were attacked by fungus that dropped from the ceiling and latched onto them. They came across a massive spider and it's minion creatures skittering down into a hole below, dispatching it and its spawn. Squee went down the hole and came back to the opening piloting a massive construct that bore a mask capable of projecting an antimagic field.

The party track down the location to a townhouse in [[Galik]] and identify that it is one of many properties owned by the [[Hearthorne]] family.

Reaching the top floor, the party avoid a trap and find the head of Ripjaw connected to strange magitech technology. Here they suddenly run into Jack of Hearts who bursts in beaten and bruised. After dealing with a corrupted fungal Lyreguard who then attempted to kill Jack of Hearts, the party escape the townhouse with the criminal and demand answers.

<u>Important Things that Happened:</u>
*As the rain pours the party join [[Paul Fletcher]] and [[Hunk]] the [[Kobold]] Paladin in search of the final lost village of [[Thelrya]], [[Emberglen]]. Tracking down its location using old Thelryan maps, the party arrives on the outskirts, discovering  runes that suggested a massive magic circle surrounding the village.
*Going deeper, the party found an old Kobold farmhouse that was seemingly abandoned, with signs that there had been some strange occurrences in the village, as well of signs of an unseen onlooker. As the party continued to the village, they discovered that a strange being resembling Paul had infiltrated the group, only to disappear before they could do anything about it.
*Arriving at the village they find it abandoned, save for the strange signs of creature nearby that always seem to disappear when the party approaches. While investigating they are beset by an invisible creature which could be seen only through mirrors. Defeating it, it is discovered to be a strange mutated kobold. At the same time the party continues to be stalked by the creature that resembles Paul.
*Investigating the villages library, the party discovers the hidden sanctum of a kobold wizard. Reading their notes, it is revealed that in their folly in hopes to regain Thelrya, the Kobold wizards of the village summoned something from the beyond, a disease that took shelter in the town well. Anyone who then drank the water would be transformed into a monstrous [[Skulk]], doomed to march at the beat of the Lost Parade. The party complete a ritual to destroy the disease while fending off a horde of the Skulk, and manage to free the remaining villagers who had been petrified for their own safety, saving the village of Emberglen.

<u>Important Things that Happened:</u>
*The party journeyed out into the wilds at the request of a druid sanctuary searching for assistance. As they approached the border of the sanctuary, they came upon a herd of colorful, horned sheep consuming a corpse. As the party got closer, the herd were provoked and attacked, attracting attention from nearby plant-like wolves that accompanied the sheep. After defeating the two animal packs, they came on a small wood elf who discovered them. Finding  out they were from [[The Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company]], they lead them into the now-ransacked Silver Ivy Sanctuary, where their small community was rounding up infant beasts and incapacitated monsters under their care.
*The druid Roxanne met them soon after to notify that a few of their rarer infants have been captured and stolen - and that the wards that normally keep unwanted interlopers out was dismantled. The party pushed a little further, and she gave them a scroll to revive the wards once they made sure all the animals were recovered and all the ward stones were in place.
*The party successfully located a weak link at the north end of the sanctuary, discovering a last pack of poachers were on their way out - each with a crate in tow that emitted various bestial cries for help. The party quickly dispatched the brigade, recovering the animals.
*As the final goon fell, the boss - Quinn-Ora, thought to finish the job herself. She attempted to negotiate, but the party pounced on the warlock quickly. Beaten by two giant apes, slashed up, and out of any other options she cast dimension door to scramble away, claiming to return with better help.
*Afterwards, the party located the misplaced ward stone - placing it back and restoring the ritual to replace the protective barrier. The baby beasts were saved, and the Silver Ivy Sanctuary gifted them with unique items and offered to aid the company should they require guides or other help navigating within the Wilds.

*Traveling  few days later the party found a similarly dismembered animal, and searching forward they discovered a massive out of place [[Yeti]]. After defeating the strange beast, the party began to look into how such a creature came to [[Amusa]]. Following it's tracks the party found a massive dome made of solid ice. Entering through a small crevice carved into the dome, the party found a mystical frozen jungle, where all the plants were coated with ice and where snow rained down from the sky. The party also found solid ice sculptures which they soon discovered used to be living people and animals.
*Arriving at the center of the dome, the party found a strange ice rift formed in the center of a massive tree. The gate was watched over by a strange Winter [[Dryad]] known as Eleria, who offered the opportunity for the party to remain with her forever, frozen in perfectly preserving ice. Combat ensued and after a difficulty battle with many close calls the party defeated Eleria. As she was defeated, the party received a strange vision from the night of [[The Thelryan Restoration]]. The party saw the grove when it was in it's pre-frozen state, full of life and tended to by fey dryads. The leyline surge from the thelryan event caused an strange [[crown artifact]] held by a ranger staying with the dryads to react, tearing open the strange frozen rift.
*During the fight one of the party members got pulled into the strange rift, waking up to endless fields of snow and ice ringed with tall mountains. On the forest mountain stood a castle of tall stone and ice, and approaching him was a towering humanoid figure with blue skin. Beholding the rift the figure proclaimed:
 
<blockquote>"Start spreading the news, we leave today. Long live the Frostfell Empire!"</blockquote>
 
*The figure then blew on a large horn, awaking what appeared to be a massive ancient white dragon on a nearby mountain top. After the Winter Dryad's defeat and seeing the approaching dragon through [[The Glacial Rift]], the party fled back to their cart, finishing their journey to Xender City, with many more questions then answers.

<u>Important Things that Happened:</u>
*The Royal Family of [[Xender Pleth]] told the Tempest Brothers that a testy wizard had stolen a priceless portrait of a 'beautiful child' and that two negotiating parties had not returned from their efforts to retrieve it.
*The party was briefed on the mission to recover the portrait and find out what happened to the other parties. They flew by Red McCaw to a nearby camp and scouted ahead with familiars to discover a stone monolith with no clear entrance. They hiked to the location the following morning to find a tower with no doors or windows and covered with some type of force shield. Magic mouths in the tower announced that it belongs to "Gafizmaphram the Magnificent".
*They searched the area and found a mine entrance that was from long before, followed it to a mined entrance into the tunnel foundation. In these catacombs, they fought undead before finding their way to a trapdoor into the tower proper. They discovered that the undead were, in fact, the remains of the previous two parties who were sent to investigate.
*The party emerged on the next level in a storage room and burst in on the Gnome wizard while he was eating breakfast. The defenses of the tower activated and the party had to fight fire elementals while being peppered with spells from the mage and scorching rays from the fireplace. The party successfully banished the mage and they continued up the tower.
*On the next level where they searched a library, finding clues and having a shouting match with the mage that suggested that there was a different side to this story. The tower defenses activated again and they had to fight animated objects.
*After the fight, the party debated about whether to continue forward, having exhausted almost all spells and having only a fraction of hit points remaining. They continued one more floor, finding an alchemy lab. There, they found additional evidence which confirmed a different story about what happened and confronted the mage and his Simulacrum.
*The mage, Gafizmaphram, had been accosted by the Royal Family who had requested that he become their court mage. Gafizmaphram rejected this offer and was in the process of being taken into custody by castle guards when he grabbed a portrait off the wall, smashed out the frame and used it to distract the guards while he teleported back to his tower. The wizard had no idea that this portrait of a scrawny, ugly baby bird had any value whatsoever and was using it for scrap paper throughout the tower. The party was able to recover all three pieces of the portrait of a baby [[aarakocra]]. They collected loot and left the tower without confronting the wizard further, returning to camp.
