Session 10

Mjolnir and the End of the Iron Gauntlet

The party battled the Automaton unsuccessfully, until Ignatius realized it was vulnerable to the boiling oil in the room. Upon its defeat the party opened a sarcophagus of one of King Allistair III’s Acolytes and recovered an onyx panther idol and a mysterious hammer. Having left New Haven Harbour earlier than anticipated because Yorrick attacked, the Ebon Hawk headed to the nearby Nordic Cross to restock. During an evening celebration Altair attempted to steal the 3 idols, but was seen by Mr. Burroughs. He was later confronted by Petronella who wounded him, but left him alive. Altair’s possessions went missing the next day. En route the ship encountered the scuttled hull of the Iron Gauntlet, another ship in the Black Marauder’s fleet. The crew of the Iron Gauntlet began rising as undead, and Mr. Burroughs spoke with their dying captain, Johnson, a former crewmate, and confirmed that Yorrick was responsible for the attack. Burroughs killed his friend before he could turn undead and ordered the crew to burn the ship. That night the Ebon Hawk crew lit paper lanterns in memory of the Iron Gauntlet.
