On a mission from TAG, the Chief of the combined Redman and Orangeman tribes, our adventurers venture forth to slay the crazy old cyborg who lives in the cave a few hundred yards to the west.

Before they can enter they are attacked by a green and dolm colored shew of unusual size, driven mad by hunger

At the entrance they were confronted with a devious mutation trap that leaves one of them covered in thorns and the other with outwardly closing hands before they are able to overcome the trap (A mutation ray attached to a sensor) with a blanket.

Just inside, they are confronted by half-mechanical bats (called Stirges) and servitor robots simultaneously.  The party dispatches both quite handily and they gain 500sp worth of parts.

Once in the cave proper, the walls change from natural stone to polished metal.  Confronted by both a laser trap and a crystal circuit man, the party uses the trap to obliterate the automaton.

Some radiation confuses the sense, so the party is unsure where the power room they find is, but they decide to leave the grey and green power tubes, the central core, the control panel and the irising door alone and return with their booty.

On the way back they are ambushed by 6 cyborg bears who tear two brownman hirelings to pieces.  the party quickly escapes and the bears do not pursue into the open.

On the way back to the caves after reprovisioning the party meets the elf Egobah who asks about the owlbear who killed his elf companion.  He has offered gold in return for information.

With clever trickery the Vacillitators constructed a trap and smoked out the owl bear, who impaled itself on upon the waiting spears of their minions.

Before they could relax from a successful hunt, the ferocious Mad Cyborg attacked from behind, cleaving the Dwarf KRAGO in twain with a ruby laser axe.

Under the combined efforts of the 4 companions and their henchmen, the mad cyborg fell gifting the party with the axe.

Investigation of the Mad Cyborg's cave resulted in ferocious combat with a Siphon of Stirges and the discovery of a secret cave containing the accumulated treasure of the Mad Cyborg:
Much silver, three pieces of fine jewelery, a magical suit of mail, a staff of healing and three potions.

With the death of the owlbear, the beaked menace of the CAVES, the Elf Egobah will return to investigate regarding some object held by a dead companion.

It is known that at least one pack of Dire Wolves inhabit the forest nearby.

After a long Journey a motley group of Adventurers arrive at the KEEP ON THE BORDERLANDS.  Deciding along the way towards the KEEP to work together, they spend a couple of days at the KEEP equipping themselves and hiring much needed help to further their goals.

With limited funds, the party sets off for a two day expedition to the CAVES OF CHAOS.

Within the CAVES, they befriended a tribe of scaled men, or brownmen.  The brownmen, while barbaric, showed no sign of the stupidity and listlessness usually attributed to such.

In return for a golden necklace of great value, the Party undertook to slay the scourge of the CAVES, the Mighty Ogre.  The Ogre was defeated in a blaze of trickery and fire, but shortly afterwards, Ogre's sometime allies, a tribe of redmen surged to the attack!

The redmen were routed unconditionally, their swords and patchwork armor proving largely ineffective against the combined might the brownmen and the Party.  Ten redmen were slain in the initial battle, with only 2 brownman losses.

A quick search of Ogre's cave revealed a secret passage hidden behind a pile of offal.  The passage lead into the territory of the redmen tribe.  As well, under Ogre's bed was a stash of coins and some implements imbued with magic!  Not having time for accounting, the Party pressed on, using the secret passage way and the main entrance to the redmen lair to hammer and anvil a further Six redmen into the violent embrace of Krush-Moog, their foul God.

The Party has retreated back to their base camp an hour from the CAVES to plan a renewed assault upon the redmen and to count their spoils.
