Deep dives

Infiltration of Black Spire

The characters are engaged in a mission to infiltrate a fortified keep known as Black Spire, aiming to seize a large amount of gold intended to fund mercenary and conscripted armies within the Dragon Empire. This operation is not only critical due to the substantial sum of 50,000 pounds of gold—comprising numerous gold bars and other treasures—but also pivotal in hindering the Empire's control over two recently taken cities, Kyprian and Rum. The mission's complexity is heightened by the presence of dark, supernatural elements in the keep such as haunting lower crypts that have a reputation of being off-limits due to the dangers posed by ghost walkers, cannibalistic humanoids living underground. The group has already encountered significant opposition, defeating a powerful dragon knight known as Gray Mist, but now faces further challenges as they navigate the treacherous layout of the keep.

I used to use a different app that was able to save excerpts from podcast and really enjoyed it. I could listen to the podcast and quickly save things that I wanted to come back to later. Snipd take this to a whole new level with AI integration, creating summaries of podcasts and summarizing the main takeaways from what I’ve saved and snipped. I really love how it helps me prioritize what podcast to listen to with it summaries & deep dives.
