I'm confused, do we know there needs to be a secret entrance along the eastern passage? The note to me being near the door could imply we need to go through the door to follow it?

The other thing to consider along Ricard's point would be whether the party that left the campfire could have already taken the treasure (though the chalk implies they left the note themselves and expected someone along later).

I'm fine with proceeding here or hunting elsewhere--though Druin probably prefers staying and searching because he trusts gems more than some other form of treasure.

Sure! I've created a post in that thread, which I will update as updates happen to the map, rather than creating a new post each time.

Edit: I'd like to also explicitly say what a good time I'm having with this game. It may seem like we're being super tentative and indecisive, but I just want the DM to know that so far I'm loving it.

There it is! Thanks for posting the outside map along with your graphing Spaceseeker19, on the Western half of the outdoors map is a gate marked C... That's gonna be the Stonehell entrance. Caves of Chaos logic never fails lol

I strongly second that. Gene, I'm really loving Swan's tendency to charge forward unexpectedly--right from that first "Okay, I give up, what's the deal with the rabbit..." moment.

I agree with the sentiment, this game so far has felt the most like a true OD&D experience out of any previous OSR playthrough I've been in. It really highlights the differences between BECMI and say DCC where play is more summary and less engrossing.

Hey hey! Sorry for no recent posting! Past few days have been a bit of a blur due to a horrendous sleep schedule brought on by me just not feeling well. Stuff just hit outta nowhere :\

Sorry to read that. I hope you're on the mend and feeling better.

One fire beetle? I'd say about 1500xp each! Only seems fair ;)

Yeah, and I need to do a lot more mapping...

Nice! Level 2 here we come!

dominion451. You don't suppose Swan is a bit lacking on foresight as the ash rise as she strides across the room.

I don't? Is that a question or a statement? Not sure I understand...

dominion451. Smiles. That was a statement. LOL. Nothing important.
