Long ago a spirit of the Feywild was created by the shard of weave that imbues the Feywild with it's power. This spirit was at first happy and would spend it's time spreading joy. However this spirit was created to help keep balance within the Feywild, to maintain the peace between the plant and animal kingdoms, to protect all of the spirits of the forest and the jungle and night sky. Eventually, as all things do with time, what was bad became good and what was good became bad and the power of the shard was corrupted. The spirit was heart broken, shattered, shards of her heart like a dark crystal broken on the floor. She became angry, vengeful, this peaceful spirit turned wicked and evil, a Hag of the Feywild, using her power to mete out vengeance on those that would corrupt the shard.
But this story isn't about this forest spirit protector. This story is about her familiar, a mote of Feywild magic turned into a small creature that she would order about, "Fetch me this, Fetch me that, oh and you've Fumbled again.." She loved her little hexblood spirit, but it was so bumbly and stumbly and slowly she came to call it Fumbles, and eventually just Fumby. Over time Fumby and their patron grew very close, and Fumby eventually was able to heal the heart of this Hag, helping her to return to her place as a forest spirit of protection. The Hag slowly crept towards sanity, and joy, and turned herself into a giant sloth to maintain her place in the forest and to maintain her magical powers. She asked more of Fumby as her talons grew long and sharp and she could not pick up everything she needed for her magic. But Fumby was smol, and between the two of them there were many things that she could not pick up because she could not make a tiny enough motion, and Fumby could not pick up because they were just still too big. Still Fumby fumbled time and again and finally the forest spirit realized that this was not the home for Fumby, Fumby must try to exist as a real thing on the material plane for some time, to understand having a body.
Upon being released from service Fumby immediately tried to learn the same magic as their patron, enamored as they were. Fumby has begun an incredible journey, but they will not do it alone, learning as they did from the Hag it was only natural that the first thing Fumby would do would be find their own Fey Familiar to share their life with.. This is where our story begins, with Fumby and Spurt.
=Where did you go=
The home of a person named Kael and a giant pumpkin patch in the forest
=Who did you meet=
-Players-
John Le Foque, Lu, Mary Jane, Nephr-ka-Ra, Valkorian Sunseeker
-Non playable Character-
Kael, Bonnie, and their children ghosts and their children ghosts' friends
-Enemies-
a whole bunch of evil pumpkins and a pumpkin king
=What happened=
First we went to the home of Kael and met with him to discuss an issue he had where he was having a **** measuring contest. Weird, why did it censor the word pumpkin? Well anyways, Kael knew the best place to find a really big pumpkin and was ready to pay the party to retrieve as many and as big pumpkins as possible.
The party set out into the woods, eventually a large pumpkin patch was found, and the party started trying to collect the pumpkins
Of course, these pumpkins were actually magical and the party accidentally triggered a pumpkin trap that caused all the pumpkins to come alive and attack the party
The party slew all but one of the pumpkins who ran away to the pumpkin base giving the party the chance to follow them and track them
Arriving at the pumpkin base the party triggered more pumpkin traps trying to collect pumpkins and then were attacked by the pumpkin king on his pumpkin steed along with all the guards
After killing off all the pumpkins the party took all of the intact pumpkins back for their reward
"This was less of a standard story and more of a simulation that Fumby did because Spurt really wanted to do some training and Fumby was tired of going into the forest and fighting things for a little while and thought maybe this will be safer, it was NOT safer! Fumby was so scared! And Spurt was originally protecting Fumby from all of the other weird simulation monsters that looked like people but were really illusions, but then Spurt decided to stop hanging out for a while for some reason like maybe getting bonked a little too much or something and Spurt when back to the pocket dimension that he shares with Fumby and Fumby had to survive ALONE, with only some other people on their side to help out,
i think it was Ember the fire woman Artificer and Goldheart the Warforged Paladin again, Fumby had a lot of fun adventuring with them in the past
there was H01211X (did i say it right this time Spurt? i did? okay good) he is also a Warforged Paladin that Fumby knows from other fun times
and then there were 3 people Fumby hadn't met before, Hak'tan an Elf Ranger, Iseldin an Aasimar Druid, and Mordred a High Elf Paladin
Fumby did do some healing but really Spurt was the star of the show as usual"
=Where did you go=
"Oh wow.. what a fun time this was, i mean.. i was terrified, but Spurt had just the best time, and that's what really matters to me, i feel so responsible for the little one and it's my job to make sure that Spurt is able to do whatever he wants, especially killing things, we were talking about how much fun this was because going into the forest and into dank smelly dirty caves reminds us a lot of home, when we lived in the back of the hag's house in the feywild before she had fully let me leave and let Spurt begin training with me officially, but yeah, we went into the forest and then we found a dank smelly very very dirty cave that we liked a LOT"
=Who did you meet=
-Players-
"We met a lot of new people on this one, it was so much fun, we met Asher a human fighter, Fizzik the dragonborn wizard, and Neebus the halfling monk, they had clearly spent plenty of time together, they had a lot of chemistry and worked very well together but were also super friendly and were very nice to Spurt, then there was Ember, she was made of some kind of fire and was waaaay bigger than even Fumby and Spurt put together, and she was an artificer and hung out mostly with Goldheart who was a warforged paladin and the two of them were very interested in making sure she knew how he worked on the inside, Fumby is just made of fey dust and doesn't really have insides, and finally there was Milo Jackson, oooohhhh, what an amazing dancer and mover and shaker, really a bard after our own hearts, one day Milo might even be the king of music or something"
-Non playable Character-
"Captain Durandle was at the inn and Fumby was just there with Spurt and i don't really know why but the Captain decided Spurt was good enough i guess and let us participate in a mission, it was a little impromptu but it was a lot of fun and we did so much killing!"
-Enemies-
"Our new enemy number 1, King Squeem, he was a giant kobold! He got away from us, but we killed all his minions"
=What happened=
"First we were able to ambush an ambush of kobolds by finding them in the forest before they found us in the road, then we killed them all! and then we followed their trail back to their hideout where there were even more kobolds that we killed and a couple wargs we killed and King Squeem and his ridiculous bronze bell bazooka blunderbuss that broke or something and we had to fix it so we could steal it after he ran away, oh, and he ran away"
=Where did you go=
"What's that Spurt? You said we went into the woods outside of town? Yeah, that sounds about right.. Spurt usually remembers better than me.. I think i mostly hid behind some trees while you did all the real work."
=Who did you meet=
-Players-
"We met Yvolres and Amo, they're getting maaaarrrried, isn't that sweet Spurt?" "Huh?" "Spurt doesn't understand marriage, honestly i don't either, i was hoping you did, but no, huh, all i know is when people talk about it sometimes they make the word married all long and stretched out and weird looking."
"Huh? Oh yeah, we had other party members too! Horlix the warforged paladin, what? It's spelled how?? H01211X?? okay, if you say so, Spurt says it's spelled the normal way not the way i spelled it, there was also Mariko the tiefling sorcerer, Shō the tiefling monk, Valkorian the high elf bard, and Zapin the human artificer"
-Non playable Character-
"Spurt says everyone we met was a player character at the time we met them?? is that right??"
-Enemies-
"Except the bandits we terrified and then slaughtered, that was fun!"
=What happened=
"Spurt was amazing, flying here, there, making lightning crackle, healing, really doing just about everything, i was able to find a nice big tree to hide behind, all in all we all did our parts!"
"Huh"
"Yeah, they did do those things, the grappling, the shouting, the weird tree noises and the telling the people making kissy that they were also making kissy with other people on their backs or behind their butts or something, you're right Spurt"
