Game Time: August 26th to August 27th

Characters

Finn (werewolf 1) - A philologist from the suburbs of Karst, secretly a werewolf looking for a cure.

Hickory Wanderwood (elf 1) - A changeling from Colwick who dreams of adventures beyond his sleepy village home.

Quintus Livia (magic-user 1) - A snooty wizard from Karst sent on an unenviable research trip by his superiors.

Raesighn (specialist 1) - A young woman from the wilds who wears the pelt of a bear who was once her dear friend.

A few days travel south of Usk lies the village of Colwick. A relatively prosperous farming community enjoys a peaceful existence and the safety that proximity to the small city of Usk has provided. But other than the occasional traveller at the local public house, there is little that goes on in Colwick that interests Hickory Wanderwood(?). But this particular evening would prove to bring an unexpected offering to the auspicious child of the fae who had rarely set foot outside his small village.

For it was on this evening that three strangers would happen upon the Golden Pheasant pub, each for reasons of their own. A forlorn young man named Finn, who found himself stood up on a date. The misguided linguist decided an attempt at drowning his sorrows was in order, particularly considering the long distance he would need to travel to return to his home just outside of Karst.
