Echoes Before the Scalebreakers finally left the camp of the Forgotten behind, Jebeddo had a deeply unsettling encounter with the dwarf Bramm. He seemed completely mentally shattered and spoke in confused hints. Although Jebeddo sensed that something was massively wrong with the dwarf, the exact nature of his madness remained an ominous mystery in the shadows of the caves. The First Day The first…
The Forgotton The session began with a moment of silence. Deep in the blackness into which they had been cast down after their victory in the Clash of Iron, the Scalebreakers reflected on their journey so far. From their first meeting to the triumphs here in Kraghammer, they realized how much they had grown together. Upon closer inspection of their dark surroundings, the group noticed something…
The Arena's Shadows The "Scalebreakers" found themselves at the beginning of the tournament in a sparse preparation room: a cell whose barred front was veiled by impenetrable, magical darkness. When the blackness finally yielded, the breathtaking sight of the roaring arena revealed itself, over which Drakon Ironlash held his opening speech before a herald announced the rules of the Clash of the…
The First Rock Deep in a hidden niche of the Middle Slab, the group met the Stone Singers. The blind speaker of the ancient dwarves, Bazalt, revealed to Jebeddo his true destiny: he is the Thavax, the Echo-Bearer. In a haunting narrative, Bazalt revealed the ancient legend of the creation of this vessel, which is intended to preserve the rhythm of the world. Through the singing of the dwarves,…
Rust, Rebellion, & Resonance The evening before the long rest in the "Sooty Tankard" passed peacefully. While Arrin was already asleep, the rest of the group discussed the plan of action for the next day. Ran used the quiet time for intensive training and "quality time" with his Schliefer, Hercules. This was a complete success: their bond was strengthened so much that Hercules will have advantage…
I met with my best friends last Friday afternoon, and something struck me. We were amazed by the fact that we all actually had the same day off. A scheduling miracle for anyone over thirty. "Well, technically I'm on sick leave", one of them admitted, offering a theatrical cough. He explained how he'd just facetimed his doctor, received his sick note via email, and ordered some comfort food for his…
The Sooty Tankard The massive gates of Kraghammer remained closed to the group. The guards, strictly bound by the lockdown orders, denied all entry but hinted that the official reasoning was only half the truth. Yet, where a door closes, a business often opens: Gimbal, a dwarven merchant of tourist merchandise, offered to smuggle the group into the city illegally, through an old ventilation…
The mountain's echo The victory over the Anathema echoed long through the Wildwood. In the survivors' camp, tension and fear gave way to an exuberant celebration. While Jebeddo played alongside musicians from Ran's tribe, the newly appointed Guardian of the Forest mingled with his people, sharing stories of past adventures. Arrin contributed to the festivities in his own way, brewing a special…
The return of the guardian After a night of rest and resonance, the heroes were gently awakened by Jebeddo’s violin playing. The mist hung heavy over the Wildwood as they set off together with Korrin, the Aarakocra, toward the old ritual site, an abandoned chapel deep in the wounded heart of the forest. Even en route, Keithara and Arrin sensed that something was wrong: the water in the streams was…
Mists in the forest After their long journey, the group finally reached the Wildwood, Ran’s old home. Mist, burnt trees, and the smell of damp ash hung in the air. There, they were met by the Half-Orc huntress Mira, who led them to the survivors' camp: a small, improvised refuge for the last members of the once-proud tribe. There, Ran encountered two old companions: Orly, the elderly Tortle sage,…
