[20:46, 13/01/2022] Tom Dolton: On route, they were drawn into a dream plane where they fought a figure known as the shadowman, who they seemed to temporarily defeat. However durak, (orc barb played by Alex) was marked permanently by the SM…..

[20:48, 13/01/2022] Tom Dolton: They discovered that the five families who run crait were fractured. With two supporting a lord known as “the drake” one being a bit passive, one family who had sequestered themselves away and one (the previous ruling house) were wiped out by the drake upon his arrival.

[20:49, 13/01/2022] Tom Dolton: Having found the first family they encountered a bit hostile, they discovered that the Drakhammers of the Drakenwold Highlands might be a possible ally. So rather than use the open roads, the group heard of a disused smuggling route known as the canals. They found the entrance and made their way down….

[20:50, 13/01/2022] Tom Dolton: After a series of….challenging events (including meeting a lovely bird lady who seemed to have been imprisoned through no fault of her own) and almost being eaten by a giant Frong, they finally emerged from the canels into the highlands

[20:51, 13/01/2022] Tom Dolton: There, they met a figure who was later revealed to be the lords son. He revealed that there were two factions vying in the highlands. Each led by a daughter of the lord. One was pushing for an alliance with the drake and to reopen the lands for trade, the other was pushing for open rebellion.

It was in a tightly held balance - so the group (now dubbed “the Greenblades “ by Farren (Dan) who uses his signature green flame blade move, won the support of the old hunt master of the town. (By slaying a number of monsters in the wilds) they then instructed the hunt master to support the rebellion faction

And our story ended with the Drakhammers calling their banners to March down to the Dwarven city of Dol-Maldir - the seat of the high king….where the Drake and his forces sit and wait.

Humans - non-magical. Hostile towards magic users. Imperium is their nazi-like group.

Imperium delegation courting the dwarves. (Think)
