Hell's Rebels, episode 29: Blind the unconscious dead person

In which harsh pragmatism ensues.

The poorly-drawn map proves the biggest challenge of this level, but we eventually work out where we can move. The Silver Ravens say "Nope" to regeneration and to ridiculously excessive DCs. We play with a doggie, and have a nice read by the river.

I'm somewhat uncomfortable with The Lout in this part of the adventure. This is an 'ogrekin' (half human, half ogre, I think?) who got captured by some evil priests, magically controlled for a while, brainwashed and is now a loyal lackey. He's presented as abused, deformed and 'breathing through his mouth and drooling'. It all feels a bit dubious to me.

Part 29 of the campaign is now up on Archive.org at Episode 029: Blind the unconscious dead person
