The Story So Far...
In the quaint village of Oddbark, nestled within the heart of Faenoria, we meet our intrepid adventurers. Each has their unique background, motivations, and secrets, intertwining their fates as they set off on a series of unexpected adventures. Calcifer: An Oath of Watchers Paladin, son of the captain of the guard, whose tragic loss of his brother to a Malbest attack forged him into a stalwart protector. Perry: A Rogue, child of two ex-adventurers, with a penchant for mischief and unrequited attempts at romance, particularly with the local barkeep, Lavinia. Eudora (Rory): A Wizard, daughter of a rancher, who juggles delivering dairy products, reading voraciously, and being the notorious prankster known as the Acorn Killer. Jaciara (Jaci): An Artificer, daughter of the apothecary worker, known for her inventions and her ability to finish any situation thrust upon her. Nair: A Ranger with a mysterious past, raised by the reclusive hunter Francis, who is known for his tough love and harsh training.
The Story Begins on the day of the Harvest Festival, a day meant for celebration but which quickly turns eventful. The adventurers partake in various festival games, uncovering local secrets, and encountering characters like Maurice Goodman and Pat Sweet, the mayor. Perry's failed dart-throwing attempt and Rory's apple-bobbing victory add to the festival's chaos. The group investigates screams from Aberforth's shack, discovering an underground mine and strange burgundy crystals. They encounter a manticore and cleverly trap it with Jaci's inventive use of enhanced scrap meat.
Further exploration of Aberforth's tunnels leads to a confrontation with giant spiders. The adventurers face peril but manage to escape, discovering clues about a mysterious drug called Stardust and a sinister figure named Q. Returning to the surface, the adventurers grapple with the implications of their discoveries. They receive accolades for their bravery, participate in arm-wrestling contests, and win tokens. Cal's show of strength and Perry's cunning display a blend of heroics and trickery.
A dream sequence reveals doppelgangers within the village, adding to the growing sense of unease. The group investigates further, uncovering necromantic symbols and evidence of someone’s dark dealings. The plot thickens as the adventurers delve into the village's secrets. Exploring the mayor's house, they find hidden chambers and necromantic symbols. The group faces a colossal spider, ultimately destroying it with a clever trap involving booze and flour. This victory is overshadowed by the realization of the deeper threats they face.
Emotional tensions rise as the adventurers confront personal challenges and prepare for their journey. Rory grapples with family dynamics and her growing feelings for Fetia, while Perry deals with complicated relationships. They also face internal conflicts within the group.
