Peril on the Purple Planet is an epic DCCRPG box set devised by +Harley Stroh. The adventure is a hex crawl, so player characters get to explore a completely open and lush world.

Banished to the Purple Planet - Eleven

Day 10

• The party begins the evening at 10:30pm, with 3 1/2 hours of power left on the skiff. 
• 10:45pm, the party discovers Walter the elf, trying to hitch a ride.
• Walter the Elf, spent several days in the Mushroom forests after being cast out by the King of Elfland from his home world. 
• The party also met Walter's sexy cricket familiar. 
• 11pm, the party spots 13 Kith refugees slowly making their way across the desert.
• Party approaches, but communication is challenging.
• Ssof offers healing magic, imbued with Aristemis' glory. 
• The wounded Kith are healed! 
• Ssof is offered the opportunity to make a banner for the refugees, which he does with the symbol of Aristemis. 
• The 13 Kith of Aristemis point to the jungles to the East. 
• 11:15pm, the party continues south along the edge of the mushroom forest. They come to the scene of a great battle!

• 124 Kith Raiders
• Charge! The party dives down into battle on board their skiff. They head towards the Raiders' right flank, currently under the command of a Silver Armor Champion.
• Highlights were Screaming Otto using his Axe of Pure Scream to scare off the largest champion, and then Ssof took control of the second largest champion through a binding prayer. Also Walter's Enlarge spell manifests as the target becoming a baby and then growing back into a larger full form. Some great driving by Floyd as well, as he takes out four of the raiders by drifting into them. 
• In the end, House Cotcyst is victorious with 122 remaining warriors, while the Raiders run off with only 74 left in their numbers. 
• The Wingleader, Warlord of House Cotcyst calls upon the party. 
• 12am, camp with the Wingleader. 
• Speaks common! Learned from a small party of dwarves that he kept for a while as walking meat storage... he ate them eventually. 
• Offered spoils, including a great deal of Greenstone Shards. 
• Agree to take the party back to Castellum Cotcyst. 
• 12pm, the party arrives at Castellum Cotcyst. 
• The Wingleader tells the PC's that they must be branded with the symbol of House Cotcyst to enter. 
• The PC's take on the Brands of House Cotcyst, and enter Castellum Cotcyst as members of the Wingleader's Warband. 

Quotes

"The idea was fully Alex." - The party describes Gastronomix's death in the last session. 

"Considering he got eaten as his means of death, it's actually pretty fitting." - Marc continues beating up Gastronomix, this time over his name. And Alex wasn't even playing. 

"Only one screamer in the party!" - Screaming Otto doesn't want Walter or the Sexy Cricket on board the skiff if either is a screamer.
