April 18 2021 - Putting an end to the Redbrands

While eating breakfast we were greeted by 7 Redbrands demanding we come with them. Since we had just woke up and hadn't finished our breakfast yet, we were grumpy and weren't in the mood for their nonsense. They made the mistake of attacking us and ended up paying with their lives. We looted 7 leather armor, 7 swords, 7 capes from them. Thadium took a finger from each one as a gift for Glasstaff.

We were fed up with the Redbrands at this point, so we decided to pay Glasstaff another visit at their base. First we killed some bugbears who were tormenting a goblin. Some Redbrand guards and a strange, one-eyed creature, called a Nothic, wanted in on the action, so we killed them too. Once again, Thadium added to his collection of fingers.

Next it was time to deliver the gift to Glasstaff. Thadium greeted him with a big hug (grapple) and gave him the gift. The rest of the group proceeded to beat the tar out of him and his guards. The captain of the guard surrendered, so we interrogated him. He told us that Glasstaff was responsible for the Goblin raids, but Glasstaff is not the head honcho; a drow-elf, whose name is unknown, is calling the shots. We were also informed that there are some prisoners somewhere in the base, so we plan on freeing them and looting the rest of the base.
