Leaving the Alleyway Behind the "O"

Reba: After Sofa King ran off, the homeless folks just ambled around and didn't remember a thing.

Searching for Sofa King

🎲 DM: This was run as a Challenge.

Markos beats feet looking for Sofa King

Markos: Trying to jump into this hero thing with both feet, I take on the leg work of trying to find the whereabouts of Sofa King. I first try to create some awesome shades of detectiveness by using my vintage kids batman sunglasses, and fuse a few pages of Sherlock Holmes into them...but alas, I just made a fool of myself in my half-melted abominations. Plan B was I bribe them with Gyros. That seemed to work well, and I got a decent working knowledge of Sofa King's hangouts.

James and Reba tackles the wards that hide him

Reba: Sofa King's got a ward to keep folks from finding him. Screw that. I decided I'd poke a few holes in that. James offered up some wizardyness to help me crack it. Sofa King's ward was tough, and we couldn't completely shatter it, but we managed to make a hole.

Everyone tries to figure out his next target

Reba: We didn't have any luck finding Sofa King himself, though we got a few hints. We tried to figure out who he was going to murderize next. We figured out the previous victims were loaded.

Sofa King's Lair, Under A Bridge

🎲 DM: Due to what turned up during the search of the "lair" the cast has a free invoke on the aspect "Grieving Father".

Reba: We found out Sofa King's throne is under a Bridge near campus. Sofa King wasn't around when we came by, but we found a lot of crap. Especially blood packs (For Sousson-Pannan to drink, I guess). Also, a hella lot of dog food, and a wheelbarrow trail leading further into the park.

Markos: We found the Sofa Kings lair, sans Sofa King. The hobo's hanging around were pretty helpful. We found an awful lot of dog food...

Three-headed Dog Park

🎲 DM: The ward around the leash free area that is holding Cerberus in has five points holding it together. Each requires a +5 Superb to dismantle.

Reba: The was a big bad voodoo doggy in the park. Markos and I only saw a shadow cerberus, Becca didn't see nothing, but James definitely saw a Cerberus.

Markos: We followed the tracks of the wheel barrow out to the main path, and followed that in the same direction, leading us to the leash free park. Once we approached, I could barely make out the outline of a three headed dog...but it couldn't be Hades hip-hugging hound. We cross into the park and yep...it's Cerberus. Suffice it to say we run, James gets bit on his bum but we make it out alive.
