Session 47 - Streamlabs Freeze, Nefir Vanishes & Backstories With Teeth

Streamlabs decided to take a hard nap mid-session. Not the “everything looks fine on my end while you’re all staring at a black screen” problem, thank God. This one was a full lockup. Preview frozen, controls dead, the whole app basically turned into a screenshot. So I did the only thing you can do: killed it, restarted the stream, and jumped right back into the scene as fast as possible.In Karra’s stronghold, the Shadowfell didn’t ease us in, it just took something. The Jester showed up, called it a new board, and Nefir was suddenly gone. The party salvaged what they could (including a Scroll of Gentle Repose), said a surprisingly real goodbye to Ed-D, and followed Grashka’s “pull” straight into a wraith ambush that got messy fast… especially when Cliff’s holy power hit Grashka like it hit the dead. Later, they found villagers they’d saved before, picked up another key from Brie, and now it’s two keys in hand, three to go.DM Deep Dive is backstories: why I cap them, why “too short” is still a problem, and what happens when you give me nothing to pull on. Spoiler: I’ll make the strings myself.
