The mystery of the missing Cocklord Phallus is beginning to present itself. Delryn fell in battle and the party has to consider what to do with him and the spirit that now shares his body. A lot of soul-searching, weighing of options, and testing of character is required before they strike out for the last leg of their journey: a castle of one of the most powerful men in the land guarded by a traitor.
Shorter episode due to an interruption, but a real character episode.

The three heroes (with one strangely quiet because we were short a player but wanted to move along) proceed down the long road of The Great Rod to find out more about the mysterious attack on the wedding party of Lady Boner and the unusual absence of her would-be husband, the Cocklord Phallus. Scrote and Delryn dig up several new clues indicating just what may be happening, but there are others who aren’t pleased about what they discover.

Given the political care involved in the attack from earlier, the crew of loyal and phallicly named heroes are given discreet orders to proceed to Lord Phallus, Cocklord and suspected traitor for reasons unknown. The group must travel all the way down The Great Rod in order to reach the Western Sphere, and he or other dangers could be anywhere on the path. Unfortunately, they’re also traveling with some unexpected company: some living, some not.
Players
Lady Dieza Nought (Max) – The Fighter. A grim crusader of the Cocklords, disgraced over a misunderstanding and doing whatever slaughter or gruntwork needs to be done for her lords with little to no mercy. Wields a massive spiked ball and chain she calls the Buster Ball.
Delryn Tayghbag (Ryan).– The Arcane Duelist. Bastard son of an unknown Cocklord, he relies on style, charm, quick thinking, and a mystical skill with his sword to dispatch the enemies of Cocklord Richard.
Inquisitor Gonnorheus Scrote (Drew) – The Immolator. A potentially mad pyromancer, the scarred, vigilant, and paranoid mage was touched by a dark taint in his past. Rather than succumb to it, he bound its magic in fire, which he uses in the name of the Cocklords to purge the tainted and the wicked.

Based on an old, self-imposed dare, I finally bring you after years of planning: Cocklords! HONESTLY one of the most serious games I could ever run.Think straight-faced Game of Thrones, except that every thing, person, and location possible is named after a synonym for genitalia (dropping the pretense of most medieval society, frankly). King Freud founded the kingdom of Domepeace, but when he died, he named no heir. His five sons warred until Lord Boner turned to necromancy, drawing on the tainted powers of the southern regions. The four others united against him, banishing their evil brother and joining to rule the land together as the Cocklords under the symbol of the rooster.
Our players are knights of the new Cocklords generations later, and all invited to attend the celebratory feast in the name of Cocklord Phallus and the granddaughter of the once disgraceful Lord Boner, Lady Boner. If the controversy and the judging dinner conversation doesn’t get our heroes, then the uninvited pirates and sea monsters just might!

Mission 1: The Klowns of Kingsbog
Kingsbog is a little town east of Caldreton, out in the Grey woods. It’s a lumber and fishing town that started reporting disappearances a few days ago but recently the missing have returned with no memory of what happened. On top of this, it seems they’ve been followed back by some pale and decorated carnival folk, clowns basically just stalking about in the outlying woods and getting uncomfortably close to people’s homes. They’ve called the Order in to investigate.
