Newest first.

• 2026-06-27 — Session 19 added. After burying Mike, the party abandons the Aurelia raid for the Egg and turns back toward Vel’Kris to redeem a forged ledger. A Pure Light priest from the very patrol that killed Mike — Father Thomas, Brian’s new character — defects to the party to atone. On the night watch the Black Mask undoes Hugo’s Ascendancy conditioning (the first payoff of her s17 promise) while pressing him toward a “second deal”, and a wandering goblin reveals that Seraphine, the ruler of Aurelia, once destroyed five Archmages single-handed in the Arcanvian War. The session ends with a fey ambush — a pixie and will-o’-wisps — that turns Terry into a chicken but kills no one.
• 2026-05-25 — Session 18 added. The reef-line cliffhanger resolved with Steven’s nat-20 dagger crit killing the Brinemaw Wyrm. A gargantuan red dragon flew overhead toward Arcanthys; a giant winged acid catfish destroyed the boat; the party swam ashore. The next morning, an Aurelian patrol stopped them on the road; the lead knight Glenn executed Mike for casting Message via the Mizzium Apparatus. Mike (Brian’s character) is dead; the apparatus and spellbook were confiscated; Hugo buried the body roadside. Caelumn’s full Vhal’Zarim / Platinum Order / Bahamut backstory was revealed for the first time. DM rulings: Bladesong counts as unsanctioned arcane power in Aurelia; healing potions need sanction; “Nessa”, not “Nella”.
• 2026-05-17 — Session 17 added. Two new players join (Brian as Mike, Ash as Steven). Vasquez and Althea captured by Aurelians (s16 retcon). Black Mask renegotiates her pact and pledges to “crush” the Ascendancy. Hugo’s race named: Voidforged. Cliffhanger combat against a Rimeclaw Skulker.
• 2026-05-11 — Sevryn rename: the silver-dragonborn quest-giver’s canonical spelling is Sevryn (transcribed throughout the recap corpus as “Sevryn” by Whisper). Page renamed; aliases preserved so existing wikilinks still resolve.
• 2026-05-11 — Wiki goes live at https://nickipedia-wiki.web.app.
• 2026-05-11 — Initial 15-session corpus published: 5 active player characters, 4 deceased, ~50 NPCs, ~38 locations, the campaign bible, and the full session recap chronology from session 2 through session 16.
