Setting
The lands of Parasonnea are home to humans, dragons, elves, dwarves, dragonborn, and many other races. Arcane magic is studied and a code of honorable combat has been followed at times.
The Twin Worlds have endured many wars. In recent memory, the Quan'thosk'alys Wars of 25 years ago brought widespread devastation in the form of corrupting ichor. Large portions of the Southlands were lost to the ichor. Most of the primary fighting on the world took place in the Southlands. After the war, the destroyed areas were replaced by vast primeval forests thanks to the Stars of Destiny.
A second war only 5 years ago, the War of the Shards, took place on the Southlands. Although not as cataclysmic, that war caused many casualties as well. The people of the Southlands are weary of war, but political tensions are high as the various nations extend out their borders.
One of the key features of the Southlands is the Great Caravan Way, also known as the Ancient Caravan Way. The Great Caravan Way starts in Cyan Gyantto in Gellian and spans the continent all the way to Gloecoast in the Dwarven Alliance. Pilgrims and traders rely on the road being open.

Session 4 - The Perversion of Pinkerton [4.3.15] | |
---|---|
The party prepares to head out on a pair of missions. First to investigate the lack of trade with the marsh village of Pinkerton. And second, to act as emissaries to the nation of Whisperdawn. Before heading out, Krongus gives Hallon a name to look into in Whisperdawn: Archdruid Kormar. Also, Myrtle hears her old drinking buddy, Borgon the Restless is in town setting up a Gruffmarble Mercenary Guild branch. Eventually, the party gets underway to Pinkerton. While winding through the grain paddies built on the marsh, the party rescues a group of merchants beset by wolves and ravens. One of the merchants is overly amorous towards Hallon, and the others complain that their significant others have spurned them. The party heads into Pinkerton, and notes flowers being sold on every streetcorner under the branding of a gnome named "Two-Lips". They head to the town tavern and work their way through a couple of rounds to smooth over tension with the locals, all of whom have odd romantic fixations towards each other. Kaiden finds himself attracted to the barmaid, Rheya to the barmaid's thuggish husband, and Hallon towards Kaiden. Isocerus and Myrtle have meanwhile obtained a room at the love hotel next door to investigate, and have ordered additional drinks to the room. Rheya, becoming concerned that they are falling into a enchanter's trap, urges the party to retreat back to the merchants camped south of town. Isocerus and Myrtle find themselves in the throws of insatiable lust. Against Rheya's advice, they retire to a tent and proceed to get down to business...repeatedly. After Hallon's merchant admirer unknowingly tips off Two-Lips, the party confronts the gnome in town where he is unloading the last of his flowers before planning to flee. He is easily intimidated into telling the party that a witch north of town is behind the enchantment in the water/beer that was intended to help him sell flowers. The situation is out of hand and not what he agreed to. The party spends the night at Two-Lips farm, and prepares to assault the witch's hideout. | |

A disgruntled mage, Rheea the Dire, is found to be behind the mysterious farts. She called in a favor from a self-styled Sultan, a djinn named He Who Dealt It. The party must go through a rift to a particularly smelly mote in the Elemental Plane of Air. He Who Dealt It was a "fart connoisseur" and was more misguided that malicious. The party did some sleuthing and found out the djinni was ego driven and a sucker for flattery. So, the party loaded up on beans, broccoli, and booze and formally requested an audience with the djinn. Convinced that they were fellow fart enthusiasts, the djinn eventually agreed to relocate the prime-side of the portal to Rheea's butthole. Then the party went to Poopa Hookah with He who dealt it and sampled flatulence-infused tobaccos. The proprietor, Nevertrust, lamented they had never obtained a gelatinous cube's fart. Myrtle's expert "fart curtsy" impressed the djinn so much that he gifted her a single-use crystal that she could use to summon his aid sometime in the future. Once the party was back on the prime, they got cleaned up and attended a successful performance by Magical Mike and the Wands of Wonder. After the show, Myrtle bedded a few of the dancers. | |

A special forces commander from the capital, Colonel Steele, is not responding to his inquiries to her. Using Isocerus' noble standing to exert authority, the party takes a team of five Rey solders and heads south to investigate. They also dabble with magical effects of Hallon's unpredictable fermented "best spice", Verisheen. After tense and suspicious meetings with Steele and her mage researchers, Isocerus calls out Steele as a liar. Steele insists that she is under higher orders to deceive the heroes. Sorcii quickly asserts that the party is meant to be there, particularly if the true nature of the so-called plague is chronomantic in nature. A shocked Steele says she will ask her superiors how to proceed. | |

Fists of Vengeance | The Fists of Vengeance are a group of rogue ex-monks that got sick and tired of ignoring the problems the peasants faced from greedy dishonest nobles. After witnessing a massacre of helpless innocents, the order was formed by a dark haired monk named Raven Silverhawk. She asked her monastic order to respond to the attack and avenge and protect the peasants, but the order replied that the nobles had the law on their side. Frustrated she left the order and took the matter of justice into her own hands, and the Fists of Vengeance was born. |
