here's a list of Black Peaks adventure summaries…
90: The Ongoing Assault on the Alchemical Profession - The purple worm cult decides to do a favour for one of two freelance alchemists in Ormok. They investigate the house of a "missing" sorcerous type, find the owner dead and his basement full of monsters and weirdness, and decide to raid the place and get rid of witnesses.
89: Dalamyr and the Underground Temple - A terse summary of the adventure, suitable for automatic inclusion on a list of session summaries.
88: The Winnipeg Serpenthelms - The great matriarch of the Serpenthelm clan, Esther Serpenthelm, extends a request and offer to Columbo and Dalamyr and then fucks them over in typical Serpenthelm fashion decides to forgive their failure and offer them an opportunity to make p for their failings.
87: Halfling Massacre - The Purple Worm Cult goes back to the park and fights mutated halflings that worship some vermin god they've never heard of.
86: Temple of the Minotaur's Dick - The worm cult somehow gets roped into trying to help some halflings? Instead they go into the first hole in the ground they find, and wander around. They kill a minotaur and Ranndy cuts off its penis and throws it at (insert elf's name here). He dies.
85: Death to Evil Wizards - A party of adventurers go down into Tiffany's and slaughter the hell out of invisible wizards. Gremlins run rampant in the camp outside Yam.
84: Lair of the Pink Ninja - Eager to liberate his companions from the clutches of the Shadow Temple Assassins, Zodar Khan organizes a rescue mission.
83: Worst Adventure Ever - Balbarrick and Zodar Khan enlist Mern the Blue and somebody who claims to be Bonspiel but is probably Ranndy Serpenthelm, but Balbarrick is destroyed by explosive mushrooms, and Mern is slaughtered by evil cultists. When Zodar and Ranndy replace Belbarrick with another Lawful cleric and Mern with another Serpenthelm, a second foray into Fortress Eibon goes even worse and a small army of slaves are immolated. Zodar and Ranndy leave, dejected.
82: Fall of Shazadar - Shazadar, Ballard, and Ranndy recruit a couple of mercenary brothers to explore the Fortress Eibon. They find many near-worthless coins, run into Bonspiel, and Shazadar is laid low.
81: Citadel of Evil - Mern and Ranndy take a working vacation to the city of Ormok and team up with some other adventurers to do a favour for a pair of pitiful halflings. They venture into caves underneath an abandoned citadel next to the city walls and find it populated with monsters and cultists, just like every other hip, happening night spot in town.
80: Clan of the Cave Frog - Adventurers form an alliance with frog men, do battle with cave men and survive their foray into Fortress Eibon (mostly).
79: Fortress Meat Grinder - Columbo, Mern, and Ballard go back into Fortress Eibon, accompanied by a newly-arrived stranger from the Serpenthelm clan, and a cleric of Orderon, neither of whom find what they're looking for. Columbo gets fuuuuuuuuuucked up and the loot probably doesn't cover the cost to repair his shattered mind.
78: Its Gold in Here - Floria comes up with a great idea to make us all rich, rich RICH! Gold is found! Then more gold is found! GOLD GOLD GOLD! Also, Columbo gets blown up but he's OK. A vastly powerful sword is found by Mern and given to Columbo! A dead horse, tired of being flogged, lays a beat down we won't soon forget. Columbo gets a magical wand and gives it to Mern, but, alas, only after Ixirgonthus perishes.
77: Swords Against Darkness is Not Enough - Columbo's Corsairs hire some mercenaries to invade the fortress with them, but after a fight with frogs and gnolls, only twenty per cent of them return alive. A second expedition sees them bringing along a street-sweeper instead of armed men, but when they attempt to seize a worthless little item that has great significance to Black Peaks characters but would mean nothing to anybody playing on a Sunday, "the Loud One" is enveloped in darkness, repeatedly stabbed, and dragged off to some unknown fate by invisible foes.
76: Enter the Eibon Fortress - Our brave adventuring party assembles itself outside the city of Yam and proceeds to mount two expeditions into the Eibon Fortress. Numerous warriors are killed, a wizard and a halfling are (further) mutilated by insanely dangerous wolves and a bag of gold with a mouth, respectively, a psychic slug is sent to hell, and some drugs and coins are liberated. In the end, even with the discovery of a magical mace, our heroes remain unsatisfied with the risk-to-reward ratio, and are desirous of finding more and better treasure.
75: Kings of Chaos - Returning to the dungeon beneath the Stone Chimera, Columbo's Corsairs suffer the slings and arrows of fate. A magical sword-in-the-stone causes intraparty conflict, poison gas causes intra-magic-user poison gas formation, and several treasure hordes cause smiles on the faces of those that survive the ordeal.
74: The Myriad Glories of Chaos - In which our heroes create a breeding pair of crystal dogs and flee like bitches (GET IT?) when the gods of chaos grant a peerage to another maligned guard-dog-cum-lab-rat-for-crazed-"adventurers" and deliver unto him as his servants three rat-men and a snake-headed wyvern were-wyvern in whose were-wyvern form its right leg sprouts from the top of its neck, a wing sticks out of its right knee, its snake head protrudes from its left knee, and its other wing extends from its genitals, which barely hinders its movement because in this form it can levitate, which I forgot to mention during the game. Read the title of the adventure again if you don't get it.
73: Bowling for Loot - Still residing in Ormok (aka INSERT TOWN NAME HERE), the party encounters more troglodytes! Then, experiments with magical pools occur! A mutant gargoyle is involved! A water elemental is too! An inn is destroyed! Loot is found! Shadows attack! And yet more loot! MwhAhAhaHahHAa!
72: Dungeon under the Inn - The party takes an uneventful sea voyage to INSERT TOWN NAME HERE, where they discover an inn with a dungeon under it! Seeking a lost group of adventurers to rob and murder save from certain death, the Corsairs enter the dungeon and are ravaged by troglodytes, annoyed by a crazed dwarf, and nearly TPKed by ghouls before fighting a gargoyle at his pool-side abode.
71: Son of Return to the Hole in the Hill - Several more expeditions into the hole in the hill find the adventuring party killing a minotaur, a priest of law they had enlisted to help them, a number of zombies, and some giant spiders. They fall through a hole and send hundreds of feet down another, to little or no avail, and continuously fail to find any noteworthy treasure.
70: Return to the Hole in the Hill - The party returns to the dungeon and kills some goblins. Elizabeth's Sleep spell comes in handy, and produces a prisoner to be questioned, who is then dispatched by Merrigold. Our heroes then find the horrible grey ooze that plagued Merrigold so mightily in the third expedition, and he cuts it in half with one blow, killing it. The phoenix shield (which I totally forgot to mention was a shield +2 when Merrigold got attacked later) is recovered, and the party explores to the north, finding a group of drug-crazed berzerker orcs, some strange rooms, bats, and some dangerous-looking pits. One of several secret door leads to a stairway full of zombies, who the adventurers decide not to fight.
69: The Hole in the Hill - On the northern shore of the Barony of Restenford, shepherds and merchants have been reporting goblin attacks.
68: The Amira's Necklace - Merrigold and his two newest recruits hire Nebarr and Ameesh, warriors from the Mysterious East, who tell of a stolen necklace and the Amir's generous reward. Our heroes enter a ruined temple and retrieve it.
67: Slaughter of the Silver Man - Our bold, intrepid heroes decide to return to the Caves of the Creepy Crab Crawlers but fail to find any crabs. Instead, they discovers dungeons built by hand, slay a few guards, a high priest, and a man made of silver in order to recover a giant ruby.

50: Tower of the Stargazer Part II - Dalamyr's Doomrider's return to the iron tower to finish plundering it of its riches and to look into that hellmouth thing that Pelltar was obsessing about.

49: Rise of the Purple Worm God - Dalamyr catches up with the intrepid monster killers as they investigate the sinister cult of the purple worm god.
