I'm thinking about my next #Pathfinder1e #Ustalav session.
The party sent missives to four nearby thorps and/or hamlets to recruit people to stand with them against the fire #skeleton champions and their allied #wights. The #skeletons agreed to meet at sundown to collect tribute from the local village.
I'm trying to decide how many NPCs would respond to the request for aid. Also, should the village #vampire faction lend aid?
In #P1e #Ustalav session of 17 January:
Party, NPC body in tow, encountered 3 fire #skeletons and a #wight on road between the village and the inn. #Skeleton requested parley.
Skelly said they already suffered a loss so it would grant a reprieve from demands of tribute until after the new moon (two days). Party disingenuously agreed to meet at sundown in 3 days to pay tribute.
Party had NPC resurrected by a secret high level witch.
I updated the #HouseRules for my #P1e #Ustalav campaign to add Cure Deadly Wounds and Inflict Deadly Wounds to the witch spell list as level 6 spells.
Witch class normally doesn't have Breath of Life spell (Cure Deadly Wounds is a renamed Breath of Life spell) on their spell list but they do have all the normal Cure and Inflict spells, and Raise Dead. Adding Cure/Inflict Deadly so they have the full set.
So they're getting a small boost.
So #P1e #Ustalav session on 10 January:
Party beat two #ghasts and freed an elven woman trapped in an iron maiden in the #ghoul warren. She was the presumed-dead fiancee of the PC rogue. They left the warren and questioned her. That led to suspicion she was undead passing as alive. (She was.) She tried to flee and was prevented, then destroyed. She did not at any point attack them or lie to them.
Tragic session.

We missed our last two fortnightly #P1e #Ustalav games (20 Dec and 03 Jan) so my group have scheduled back-to-back weekends on 10 and 17 January to get back into the swing of things.
The party are still deep in a #ghoul warren. I'm hoping to introduce two NPCs this coming session (in the warren), both of whom have been name-dropped in the past. One may not make it through the session in one piece, but we'll see how that goes.
In regards to my #P1e #Ustalav campaign, it took me a bit more than month, but I did "fancy-up" my #ghoul warren map today so it's more readable. I basically colored in all the wall areas with black ink so it's easier to differentiate tunnels from the space between tunnels. In hindsight I should have used thinned black paint, as the ink I used was drying very fast, but hindsight is 20/20, and it looks a lot better than it did.
I had a #P1e #Ustalav session scheduled for today (20 December) but it was canceled yesterday evening. These things happen around the holidays so it is what it is.
The campaign is delayed until 03 January now. The party are deep in a ghoul warren. They're facing off with a pair of ghasts. Someone is yelling to be released from a stone sarcophagus in the chamber. They're avoiding a golem in another chamber.

OK, so I'm back on my #P1e #Ustalav train. Next scheduled session is Saturday (06 Dec).
Last session had the party fighting through my hand-drawn #ghoul warren under the graveyard.
I've since made a stat block for the ghoul bat swarm. Last time I winged it (pun intended) with a ghoul raven swarm stat block. Ghoul bat swarm is a little weaker.
Next I want to fancy-up my warren map a bit so it is easier on the eyes.
#Pathfinder1e #PathfinderRPG #PFRPG #TTRPG #ghoul #ghouls #dungeon
I have another scheduled #P1e #Ustalav game tomorrow, Saturday (14 Nov).
Last session the party fought ghouls in a small crypt. They crispied one ghoul with burning hands as it fled down a narrow escape tunnel hidden under a sarcophagus.
The cleric PC said they would explore that escape tunnel next session.
!!! I did not have that tunnel prepared !!!
I do now.
Ghoul warrens here we come.
I should make loot.

OPEN SEAT
I've only had three players since May. If they had a fourth party member, that combat might not have taken two sessions.
It was a total of 10 rounds over two sessions.
Anyway, that is to say, know anyone in Charleston, WV interested in an in-person #Pathfinder1e game?
Is there a #TTRPGRecruitment hashtag? If not, there should be. #OpenSeat too.
#P1e #Ustalav #CharlestonWV #WV #Pathfinder1e #PathfinderRPG #PFRPG #TTRPG
The #P1e #Ustalav game scheduled a week ago was delayed until yesterday (Saturday 08 Nov).
Combat continued from the previous session (04 Oct) and took all session. (We ran 18 minutes over allotted time to finish it.)
Party fought ghouls.
The rogue was paralyzed twice and down to 0 hp. The bloodrager finally bloodraged (first time in the campaign) and destroyed a ghoul with her claws.
The cleric's disruption morningstar finally worked.
I need to make a stat block for an RP encounter for my next #P1e #Ustalav session on Saturday (01 November). I expect them to have the RP encounter in the graveyard after they finish their cross-session combat with #ghouls.
It's an RP encounter that is likely to lead to more combat, depending on how observant the player-characters are, so I do need the stat block ready.
But for now I'm procrastinating.

Something I didn't mention when the #P1e #Ustalav party dealt with demons last year is that the #tiefling bloodrager was #possessed by a #dretch #demon. (They can't normally possess, but all #demons have some form of #possession in my campaign.)
It can't control the bloodrager's actions, but can manifest from her and retreat back into her at-will, until it leaves voluntarily or is expelled. It's been a minor nuisance so far but is escalating.
In #P1e #Ustalav last night (06 Sept), we mostly completed leveling to 4.
Then they took 6 days downtime. The unchained rogue wanted to retrain finesse training for weapon selection, which took five days (+200 gp). The bloodrager retrained hp twice (3 days & 120 gp each) to gain +2 hp--her hit point roll for level 4 had been 3. The cleric retrained hp once (3 days, 120 gp, +1 hp), then spent the remaining three days scribing scrolls.
In the #P1e Ustalav game Saturday (16 August), the party had rescued 16 people from fire #skeletons the previous session (19 July). They considered leaving the rescuees but decided to see them safely to civilization.
They avoided two fights:
1.) #skeletons: one mythic fire skelly giant, one fire skelly champion, two mythic fire skellies and two fire skulls.
2.) #vampire faction: two #dhampirs, two humans, two #festrogs
In #P1e #Ustalav game tonight (19 July), the party entered a long waddle-and-daub hut in the snowy mountains where fire #skeletons imprisoned humanoids assigned to be turned into undead.
The party fought a fire skull (in one hit), a CR 1 mythic fire #skeleton, and a CR 3 fire skeleton champion. They ended the fire skeletons far too easily.
They saved 16 NPCs but the prisoners had been drained by a #wight (foreshadowing).
In #P1e #Ustalav game tonight (12 July), the party saved their boss... They found him unconscious on the road, pitched over in some snow.
They met a ghoulish unkindness (CR 2 #ghoul raven swarm) picking the bones of a dead mobat (former #skaveling). The cleric was temporarily blinded in combat.
They saw partially #dragon-eaten ash #wight remains.
They pursue the fire #skeletons west.

In #P1e #Ustalav game on Tuesday (08 July), PCs saw aftermath of a combat. Fire #skeletons had exploded and one #wight had been ripped in half.
Party reached Sen's Pass village and the oread departed hastily after receiving a letter, taking an artifact with him. (Player left campaign in May.)
They asked about local events.
One player switched to a new character at end of session.
The party is being watched.
