S01E42 Final episode. The fellowship intend to make the Festival of the Five Armies in Dale but to do so requires riding through tough terrain and lawless hills first before the more pastoral lands closer to city.

S01E41 After a fractious Folkmoot where the Woodmen gained a new enemy called Mogdred, the estranged son of Ingomer and now lord of Tyrant's Hill, spurned the friendship of the people of East Blight but gained the thanks of settlers of the Black Tarn, it is time to ride north then east on their newly purchased mounts.This is an Adventures in Middle-Earth actual play using the D&D 5e system on Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "In The Shadow of The Mountains".

S01E40 The spy safely returned to Radagast, much to the ire of Dagmar of Tyrant's Hill, held by Mogdred. Their loyalties may possibly be tending to the Shadow but that is not certain and will require further investigation in the future. But for now, the fellowship have been invited to attend the Folkmoot at Rhosgobel, arranged by a chieftain hoping to gain acceptance by the Woodmen. Most the Woodmen leaders are present, all with an agenda, with some hoping to push that during the meeting. The companions have already spoken to many of them and now it is time for the Folkmoot to start.This is an Adventures in Middle-Earth actual play using the D&D 5e system on Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "In The Shadow of The Mountains".

S01E39 On the trip back to Rhosgobel, to attend the meeting of local leaders at the Folkmoot, the fellowship dealt with a quartet of hobgoblins who had been camping at some old ruins tainted by evil. They also discovered some fine game and some rare herbs just outside the borders of Radagast's domain. Now at Rhosgobel with time to kill, the companions have decided to help out with some of the duties requested by the Brown Wizard.This is an Adventures in Middle-Earth actual play using the D&D 5e system on Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "In The Shadow of The Mountains".

S01E38 The spider threat removed and the dark underground waters keeping the Goblins at bay, Mountain Hall is safe for now. After resupplying, the fellowship have headed south-east wards, bound for Rhosgobel once again. This time to attend a Folkmoot where the movers and shakers of the Woodmen should be in attendance. After a few uneventful days, the party were investigating some ruins for a likely campsite but it was already occupied by goblin kind, probably Orcs.

S01E37 Crossing the bridge in the Dwarven mines below Mountain Hall, the fellowship found dark water filled tunnels. Exploring one led to an ambush by yet more spiders. The skirmish was fierce with Hathus's healing and Sigmarr's withering fire employed to full effect. The spiders fled back to their nest but have left Arahad and Monin immobilised with poison.

S01E35 The companions have ventured into the mines below Mountain Hall to investigate how much a threat the goblins pose. Discovering a hidden Dwarven mine, they explored its dark tunnels to find it still inhabited by a nest of spiders.

S01E34 The tapping of goblins working the rock deep beneath them has prompted the fellowship to explore the mines of Mountain Hall to ascertain the level of threat they pose. The underground foray was uneventful until two old rock plugs were discovered, the level of workmanship only possible by dwarven hands. The larger one has been breached and we join the group as they crawl their way through into a part of the mine not explored for thousands of years.This is an Adventures in Middle-Earth actual play using the D&D 5e system on Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "In The Shadow of The Mountains".

S01E39 Giving up the hunt for Sylke the rogue-less and mage-less companions have continued to look for the final artefact, the other portal rod, in the nearest unexplored major structure. This turned out to be an arena, surrounded by the serpent infested waters of the bay. It appeared largely empty. While investigating one of two rooms off the arena floor, the party were attacked by chained invisible entities that stole Cran's sacred crowbar, Betty and used it to free themselves from their bonds. After a clumsy fight the creatures were slain and it is now time to continue onward.This is a Rolemaster Classic Actual Play set in Terry K Amthor's excellent Shadow World using Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "The Praise of Old men" ( https://www.worldanvil.com/w/shadow-world-ancellus ).2:52 The other room24:50 Hay pile room34:00 Colour-shifters52:23 End of fightAs usual, this episode has jump cuts to keep the run time down.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/CaP69lY12p8 iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/wolfshield-actual-play/id1461466298Streamed live most Fridays at 19.00ish UTC: https://www.twitch.tv/majykfngrzEmail: vids@wolfshield.co.ukTwitter: @wolf_shieldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/WolfshieldApps/
S01E33 On returning to Mountain Hall with news of the evil fortress, The Dwimmerhorn, the companions were accused of ill deeds by Hartfast. The reason for his change of attitude was the presence of their old enemy, Magric. The fellowship argued their case well so Magric, knowing the tide was turning, stabbed Hartfast and fled, only to be cut down by arrows as he floundered in the icy mountain river. The party went to sleep in their rented house, relieved to have a warm bed again. Alas, the rest was short lived as they were assaulted by orcs in the night, the foul band led by the huge orc warrior last seen in the temple at the Dwimmerhorn. The evil creatures were all slain, Hathus again raining down killing blows, but Arahad was knocked senseless in the melee. We join the party after a fellowship phase after 3 or 4 months have passed. Arahad, quickly healed by Hathus after the fight, stayed with the fellowship to travel with them to Rhosgobel. All, except Hathus, spent time cleansing themselves of some shadow points with the scholar instead performing research on the chain, the dark spirit and The Dwimmer horn. Radagast was able to impart some knowledge on all three. The fellowship phase has now finished and the companions are on their way back to Mountain Hall to investigate the mines where Goblins have been heard...This is an Adventures in Middle-Earth actual play using the D&D 5e system on Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "In The Shadow of The Mountains".

S01E38 The demon possessed Sylke is being hunted by the party. Fighting their way through more child-like demons and their taller whip wielding wranglers, they tracked her to a ruined tower with the help of the blue sprite, one of Mab's servants maybe. Ugnan used a herb to speed himself up to Sylke's location but was unable to hold her with a spell, taking a shock bolt from her for his troubles. Injured, the healer was forced to only watch as Victoria charged off into the dark mists after the fleeing but also bleeding elf.This is a Rolemaster Classic Actual Play set in Terry K Amthor's excellent Shadow World using Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "The Praise of Old men" ( https://www.worldanvil.com/w/shadow-world-ancellus ).5:52 The Arena 36:22 Chains room 52:53 351 attack rollAs usual, this episode has jump cuts to keep the run time down.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/WMllAtoiVAk iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/wolfshield-actual-play/id1461466298 Streamed live most Fridays at 19.00ish UTC: https://www.twitch.tv/majykfngrz Email: vids@wolfshield.co.uk Twitter: @wolf_shield Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WolfshieldApps/

S01E37 Sylke lost her fight with a shadowy entity which now possesses her. Despite the companions' best efforts, the new owner was able to use the magician's considerable arcane talents to evade capture, running off into the murk of the demon city of Tarek Nev.

S01E31 With Byrgol's help the imposing Dwimmerhorn was found. Much more than a tower it was a collection of several stone buildings atop a steep hill. Clambering up an old goat track, Sigmarr was able to make some initial observations and report back. This threat was too much for Amalfrida who left during the night to warn and help defend her people. Fortunately, a Dunadan ranger called Arahad was also in the area and pledged to help the companions explore the orc filled complex. Following the same path the next morning, the whole group got as far as the walls which everyone except Monin climbed over. Scouting the various buildings all went well until Sigmarr looked inside the temple. Making plans within were a large orc, human and, lying on the floor between them, an ancient withered black robed corpse, with pale skin drawn tight over bones, its unmoving head featureless but for a gleam in its eye-sockets. Also in the temple, was a Coffin-sized casket reinforced with iron bands, displaying an oversized length of chain, each black metal link the size of a human head. The luminescence seems to radiate from the chain itself and most likely the source of the green glow observed on previous nights. A sixth sense Sigmarr didn't know he possessed saves him from detection as he ducks out of sight as the spirit-eyes turn to the upper window, and he and Arahad retreat behind the keep walls. Seconds later, as they are whispering their plans to escape the Dwimmerhorn, a shadowy figure that Hathus recognises as the spirit Irimë spent a long night battling last year slithers around the corner of the keep towards them. The spirit hisses a word in the Black Speech of Mordor, then vanishes. A moment later, the Orc-horns blow...

S01E36 Cherry and Numal will take time to recover their wits before venturing out into Tarek Nev again. Fortunately two survivors from a downed skyship have decided to join the group of adventurers. Time will tell if the Laan archer Acor and Snarkel, a Nomari warrior, are adequate replacements. Continuing their search for the final artefact, the other portal rod, the party came upon a stone area inlaid with geometric patterns. In its centre were two fallen figures, one a winged Amarishi. Sylke rushed in to investigate a crown which brought a half spherical barrier down over her. We pick up just after a tall thin demon has risen out of the Amarishi corpse, seeming to recognise the now trapped elf, and has stepped towards her.

S01E30 On the way back to Mountain hall, the party had to defeat a terrifying Hill Troll. Its lair yielded a nice bag of gold which lifted the companions' spirits. Once at the hold in the mountains, they told Hartfast of Magric's betrayal, Wellar's rescue, Byrgol's aims and that the threat from the Dwimmerhorn was real according to the rescued man. Hartfast would need time to assemble a force to contend with the evil base so asked the party to once again return and find out more about what threat they all faced. They were introduced to a chipper representative of Radagast called Banna who was asked to deliver an update back to the brown wizard. Rested and resupplied, the fellowship headed south with a boat and a small contingent from Mountain Hall, crossed back over the Gladden and with Byrgol's help have now found the imposing Dwimmerhorn, a stone fortress atop a hill. One of the larger building occasionally flickers, lit within by a sickly green light. This is an Adventures in Middle-Earth actual play using the D&D 5e system on Fantasy Grounds.

S01E29 Previously on: Walar, the slave from the Dwimmerhorn, spoke of the many orcs, wargs and slaves at the evil fortress. With this information the party withdrew northwards to the Gladden to rendezvous with their water transport, manned by two fishermen. They never showed so could be assumed to have been waylaid by orcs. As the adventurers waited they met a hobbit, Byrgol, the last of his community that once thrived in the area. He vowed to one day to resettle the Gladden Fields so his people could prosper once again. The fellowship convinced him and Walar to accompany then north to Mountain Hall but have stopped at Trader's Island first to restock.

S01E34 One of the Portal rods and the Aisling Stone have been recovered but at a cost. Only Victoria has exited the tomb unscathed. Cran has suffered multiple wounds but will live though the rest of their companions' fates hang in the balance. Numal has been battered into unconsciousness, Ugnan possibly dead with a heart attack and a heavily bleeding Cherry has been mauled by a large silver salamander.

S01E28 Previously on: The fellowship have been searching the marshes of the Gladden fields for a dark fortress, the Dwimmerhorn. It was briefly sighted through the mists but was quickly lost again. Trudging through the mud towards the estimated position, the group stumbled into a group of orcs and wolves, led by a Great Orc, who were chasing a man. The party's guide, Magric, betrayed them by warning the evil band of the ambush waiting for them, then fled into the marsh. Battle was joined. Once the Wargs were slain, the orcs, clearly suffering in the sunshine, were no match for the seasoned adventurers, only the Great Orc posing much of a problem before he too fell. The man has been saved, so what's his story?This is an Adventures in Middle-Earth actual play using the D&D 5e system on Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "In The Shadow of The Mountains".

S01E33 With more help from the mysterious god, Orgiana, the undead high priests were neutralised but the shadowy spirits remained. A plan was hatched to run past them all and out into relative safety. Alas, the terror they exuded was not factored in and whilst some were able to run the gauntlet others weren't, transfixed by fear. The party are now split. Sylke has run away. Cherry dithers in the corridor beyond the others who try to fight their way through to her, hampered by the gibbering Numal and the overpowering dread of the malevolent shades.This is a Rolemaster Classic Actual Play set in Terry K Amthor's excellent Shadow World using Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "The Praise of Old men" ( https://www.worldanvil.com/w/shadow-world-ancellus ).22:32 Imaginary turtle!27:21 Terror-ble roll50:42 Another player felled56:47 Third hero downWatch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/aVQz9jxU5OMiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/wolfshield-actual-play/id1461466298Streamed live most Fridays at 19.30ish UTC: https://www.twitch.tv/majykfngrzEmail: vids@wolfshield.co.ukTwitter: @wolf_shieldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/WolfshieldApps/Another Rolemaster actual play with people's faces and everything!

Squelching along upon the Gladden fields, the fellowship have gone in search of a dark tower, the Dwimmerhorn, trying to ascertain if it exists, its purpose and its master. They were rewarded with the sight of some sort of structure in the distance but, like the gold at the end of a rainbow, could not close the distance until the vision was lost in the mists. Following their instincts, the companions pressed on but were halted by cries of alarm ahead. A manacled desperate man, emerged from the bushes, hotly pursued by orcs and wolves, a fearsome black orc leading them. Before the party could spring their ambush, their guide, Magric, bolted from them, crying out to warn the enemy.

Two of the three artefacts now recovered, the companions are trapped in an underground chamber by undead spell casting high priests. With Orgiana's help the party were able to fend off the initial assault but three of the deadly shades remain, barrier walls keeping them at bay for now though even those are being relentlessly broken down.

Orcs had been sneaking around Mountain hall but the locals had quickly chased them off though not before a watchman had been assaulted then thrown off the cliff edge. Lucky for him, he had been spotted on a ledge by Sigmarr who organised his rescue. Hathus expertly healed him, saving his life. Hartfast, the leader of Mountain Hall, showed his thanks by making the companions, "Friends of the Berg" and a small celebration was held in their honour. Leaving Mountain Hall, resolved to ultimately check out the dark fortress, Dwimmerhorn, in the Gladden Fields the fellowship made for Trader's Island, an ideal setting off point.

A portal rod has been found! Unfortunately it was highly magnetic so could not be moved from its deadly spear spouting metal frame. The irresistible magnetic force announced itself by pulling the platemail wearing Cran onto the pole-arms, spitting him like a kebab. Later, the metal clad Victoria was yanked in too and smashed against the icewall cast to protect against the spears. Seconds from death she was healed in time but it left Ugnan carrying a debilitating injury who was laid down to rest, out of the proceedings for now. As he drifted in and out, he heard Orgiana's voice in his head again, this time giving warning that danger approached and an offer to help. Trying to resist falling any further into the Dark Gods service, he politely refused. Warned of the oncoming threat, the two main warriors, now devoid of metal arms and armour to be able to move about the room, looked for something to defend themselves with just as Numal confirmed the presence of dark shapes stalking down the corridor towards the cornered party...You're listening to a Rolemaster Classic Actual Play set in Terry K Amthor's excellent Shadow World using Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "The Praise of Old men" ( https://www.worldanvil.com/w/shadow-world-ancellus ).6:40 Start of skirmish1:03:52 The Ashling StoneWatch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/euRy7JhMw_giTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/wolfshield-actual-play/id1461466298Streamed live most Fridays at 19.30ish UTC: https://www.twitch.tv/majykfngrzEmail: vids@wolfshield.co.ukTwitter: @wolf_shieldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/WolfshieldApps/
Arriving at Mountain Hall tired, Hathus exhausted even, the newcomers are disarmed but allowed through. Before meeting with the Hartfast, head of the House of the Mountain Hall, the companions buy various items from the well stocked trading post. During the audience with an initially suspicious Hartfast, he eventually opens up to tell the fellowship of something afoot down south in the Gladden fields, around an old fort made by evil folk called the Dwimmerhorn. Of more concern to him, however, is the sound of goblin miners deep below the hold. They could break through to his own mines within months and asks Monin to check over the mines and report back in a few days. Dismissed, the party amble to the hall where they partake in good food and drink before retiring for the night, satisfied. The party are awoken in the middle of the night by shouts of alarm. We join them as Amalfrida has just looked outside the lodgings into the dark of night to try to spot the cause of the disturbance.This episode will have some jump cuts to speed up the session and, as it is the second part to the same session you may spot the occasional yawn from some old tired old codger!You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "In The Shadow of The Mountains".

The caged statue was the representation of an unfollowed god, Orgiana. Most the players communed with her but only Ugnan took pity upon her and, seeing nothing untoward in her manner, agreed to follow her in return for her helping bring the search for the Portal Rods and the Aisling Stone to an end. The Goddess told her new acolyte where the stone was but first the party explored the rest of the temple, discovering altars to the twelve dark gods and four rooms, each with a Soulstone able to bring back the dead. Ugnan realised his mistake too late but, deal struck, the party headed towards the stairs leading down to where their first artefact should lie.You're listening to a Rolemaster Classic Actual Play set in Terry K Amthor's excellent Shadow World using Fantasy Grounds.You can find session summaries, items and characters on World Anvil where our campaign is called "The Praise of Old men" ( https://www.worldanvil.com/w/shadow-world-ancellus ).9:23 Chalice room17:18 Fight25:49 43434:32 End of fight58:59 Heart shaped stone1:09:35 Victoria's entranceWatch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/akmDA1isWAEiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/wolfshield-actual-play/id1461466298Streamed live most Fridays at 19.30ish UTC: https://www.twitch.tv/majykfngrzEmail: vids@wolfshield.co.ukTwitter: @wolf_shieldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/WolfshieldApps/
A job well done, the fellowship took a break for a few months. Amalfrida decided to spend time with her people back at Beorn's Hall. Hathus and Monin travelled south to Rhosgobel opening it up as a sanctuary. While there, Monin's despair lessened but Sigmarr, back at Woodland Hall, was unable to shake the grip of dark foreboding from his experience in Irimë's harrowing dream. Hearing reports of shadow, Radagast tasked the party to head north to Hartfast of Mountain Hall. This woodman leader should know of any evil doings in the area. Gaining gifts from the brown wizard, the fellowship headed back into the wilderness where they were set upon by wolves. Victorious, the friends continued their journey.This episode will have some jump cuts to speed up the session and apologies for the occasional yawn from one of the doddering old fools playing!

The tall skeletal guardians inflicted a wound on Sylke that was beyond Ugnan's healing spells. Fortunately, the party had a powerful herb that, once brewed and prepared, could knit her shattered wrist back together. After taking the opportunity for a longer rest, they headed back out to the temple again. The oppressive darkness inside resisted light causing the lanterns to only be half as effective. Undaunted, the companions strode on in, trying to keep together as something, creeping high up along the walls too far up into the black void to make out, was stalking them. They were rewarded when they discovered a central dais that held a statue of a woman wreathed in flame but surrounded by vertical bars. This caged statue was the same that Cherry had seen in her vision. The Aisling stone was nearby! But first, the party had to find stairs leading down to it. Trying to find away into the "cage" around the statue, Cran had used his trusty crowbar, Betty, to attempt to bend the bars. This was met with a warning and, alas, a fireball.

Continuing their escort of Irimë, the companions found themselves once again at the place where they had fought the Night-Wight. During the night, a foul shadow descended upon the camp forcing everyone into a vivid shared dream. This vision took the companions on a journey of despair with first, the fall of a town to treachery and finally, to enslavement of the survivors where they rotted in cells under the Hill of Sorcery. Eventually, the combined will of Irimë and the party vanquished the shade's hellish nightmare. The fellowship awoke as the wight fled before the break of dawn and the arrival of the sons of Elrond. The companions had succeeded in delivering Irimë.And we're back with another Adventures in Middle Earth Actual Play using Fantasy Grounds.

Recovering from the shock of the forced gender change, the explorers moved south to encounter another small group of the childlike demons. Cran charged in but quickly realised his mistake when the demons were joined by others lurking in the murk surrounding the now beleaguered companions. Although eventually victorious, the amount of healing required afterwards forced Ugnan into unconsciousness. Once the healer was awake, the party ventured out towards a temple bearing many scars from a determined siege. Immediately upon opening the large entrance doors that depicted an impressive woman, two skeletons arose from a pile of scorched bones.

After not disturbing the beings at the gazebo, the party moved south to hop over a wall to the area dubbed the "Nobel quarter". In an almost one sided fight, the companions quickly dispatched five demons resembling children, though children with oversized heads, razor sharp teeth, venom tipped claws and a hunger for humanoid flesh. Continuing south east, they came upon a large statue of a naked man.

Continuing exploration of the demon infested city of Tarek Nev, the party have still been unable to find the two artefacts.

The search for the two powerful artefacts has taken the party to a three story building, far more intact than others in the city. Exploring it has revealed areas for a throne, idol and huge black obelisk on the bottom floor. In the circular tower that forms the upper levels, the party find steel doors that ward some of the rooms and what appears to be an armoury or museum of sorts.A locked steel door protects an inner library but aside from a disappointingly (and deeply mysterious) empty sack, the bookshelves and chamber are empty.
