10 DuoDec 1071 Village of Welldale, Barony of Eding, Kingdom of Crosedes
Dag - Kobold acolyte of Akana. Dutiful husband and father of two.
Brutus - NPC - gigantic, but not-to-bright ex-gladiator who is loyal to the Heroes of the Chateau d'Echelon.
Norm Dingleberry - Nose-picking Dwarven Warrior
Echelon - Only the current Baron of Eding. Nothing special. Eccentric cleric of a distant eastern god of the sea.
DM Notes: The biggest issue I had compiling this was that it was written out of the journal, creating trouble placing this in chronological order. The page was pretty snug in the pages that should make up episodes #35-37, but that creates some paradoxes. Placing it during the "Baronial Duties" arc of the campaign is certainly more historically accurate.
Couldn't tell you what the actual adventure was, but any excuse for the simpler life in the halfling dales (Lowdale, Welldale, and Elmshire) that are under the jurisdiction of the Baron of Eding were fine with me. Most visits to those villages were self-contained scenarios, with only the slightest drizzle of campaign continuity.
Two more notes: Dag is the most virtuous, most heroic character in the campaign. He starts out as a terrified kobold, trying to hide, then defend his family. He moves onto to comic relief and the role of the group's cute puppy, his family acting as a companion to Timmy. Here, he's back to comic relief, being run by Velandro's (his lord's) player, but he's relatively effective.
Second, Brutus is a one-trick pony NPC that rarely got mentioned in the journal, but he should have. Ex-merc, ex-gladiator, picture Razor Ramon from wrestling, but with a heart of gold. He was a bit of a simpleton that always got people's names wrong (hence Bag and Sag references above), but in world of spider-people dopplegangers, his loyalty and skill with a sword were unquestioned.
