Well then friends, time for an update on Aximand's travels!
After fighting their way through endless hordes of gibbering Gibberlings and what not, the party made it to the Friendly Arm in. All was well, and there where lots of quests to be found for a young group of would-be adventurers. Unfortunatley, not everyone greeted the group perhaps as they had hopped, and before long - they found themselves in battle with one particularly strong Mage.
Raqulis attempted to disable the Mage's spells with her own, while Aximand used his limted(yet surprisingly potent) knowledge of the magic arts; and began casting his horror spell. Yarath fired his bow while Eamon threw himself at the Mage - Warhammer and shield lifted high an mighty. What happened next though, was rather unfortunate.
As Aximand's spell landed, so did the evil Mage's. He had also vowen the Horror spell, and now the entire party found that their spines where not present.
(This seems to happen a lot to Aximand's party, doesn't it?)

While feared himself, the Mage managed to take down Raqulis with his Magic missiles, before Eamon enraged(possibly from seeing his master die?) - and smashed the Mage's head in with his Warhammer. A visit to the cleric and a few quests later, the party decided to head t'wards Nashkel. Many people spoke of the place, so why not go there. First, they would kill an Ogre for his belts though - and drop by Beregost to see if there was more quests to be done.
On the way there though, Raqulis got quite impatient and headed a bit too far in the front of the group, ending up pincushion for a group of Kobolds.

Duely noted, the party decided to remember how little damage Raqulis can take - and particularly Eamon scribbled this down in his own journal.
Upon reaching Beregost, the group of Adventurers encountered an angry man in a Tavern, but was quickly put down by Eamon's Warhammer. They then proceeded to hire themselves out as bodyguards to a local Bard and his Master, the lady Silke.
Aximand saw through her charade - and soon found themselves in battle against yet another Mage! Having learned from the previous encounter, the party scattered and positioned themselves better. Unfortunatley, Yarath got Silke's attention - and ended up fiercly shocked by her Lightning.

After she slew Aximand's bestest of friends, she fled inside a nearby Tavern. Inside, another Assassin emerged and the party soon found themselves fighting two opponents!
For some reason though, Silke decided that SHE would be the one to kill us, and not some would-be assassin, and went on to fight against all of us. That was a very bad decision of her, and the party ended up victorius.

After the battle, Aximand reached level 2! I must say, he does seem quite potent now - as he has 37 hp(I do not move the slider for HP rolls or spells, so I must say he's been quite lucky so far!).
Now Yarath has been revived, and the party will search the town for more quests and challenges. Who knows what they will find.
