I am looking for 3-4 players to in bark in a mini adventure. Levels 1-4. No Chaotic or Evil Alignments. Please have your characters ready to submit via Direct Message. Please post in the thread a little background on your adventurer and where you are headed to before you decided to set up camp with some other adventurers.

Tanon was born in one of the very few places where sea elfs and humans met on a very, very stormy night. The storms were so bad that her father was afraid that the midwife wouldn't make it there in time. All throughout the night, and into the morning the storm got worse and worse, coming to a final loud crash of lighting as she came into the world. The storm disappeared soon after she was born. Throughout her childhood, and into her adulthood Tanon began to show a particular arcane ability to control wind, rain, and the storms themselves. It seemed only natural for her to join with a passing ships crew. She learned quickly, and for the next few months she became their ace in the hole who kept the ship together even in the worst of storms.
After her tour on the ship, Tanon decided to explore the world for a bit and see what it was like after spending so much time at sea. With no real goal in mind she picked a direction and set out in search of adventure and work. She set up camp with this new group because she was used to working together to keep the ship safe that way, and to her this seemed the safest way to explore the world, even if her own power was more than enough to keep her safe most days
Emrys was taken in a Northmen raid on his village in the Moonshaes at the age of 13. He spent 2 years as a rowing slave , until the ship foundered on the coast of Ithmong (Lapaliiya) in heavy storms. The Lapaliiya happily hung the Northmen as pirates and freed the slaves. Due to his strength and young age, Emrys found employment as a portar in a merchant caravan headed for Talathgard (Halruaa), where he received some training in fighting from the caravan's guards. As the caravan made its way back north through the Borderlands and Calimshan, he progressed fully into the role of guard. When fate brought him to the Tethyr city of Ithmong, Emrys felt that fate had destined him for a change and left the caravan to join the Tethyr Army at the age of 17. Emrys spent the next 10 years in the army, rising to the rank of Sergeant, and being assigned to various posts. On the day he was to re-enlist, Emrys saw a white hawk flying north, and took this as another sign that it was time to move on.

Herman (human variant barbarian) is a child of a barbarian chieftain.
Nearly after turning to twenties. his tribe was assaulted and disbanded by an enemy tribe, his family dead, he was just able to disappear before being turned into a slave.
He vowed he had to get his revenge against the foe chieftain, but in the meanwhile, poor and without money, he started roaming south until he embarked on a ship as a rower.
There he met a lovely but strange girl, named Tanon: he really liked her strange way to have feelings with the earth and wind powers, thus he joins her to explore the world.
ooc: yes, I thought it was an easy way to introduce ourselves and link with at least one companion: saying we sailed together and that we kknow each from then
Any way, shall we post both ooc and in game thread here or are you (DM) going to create a one-shot campaign link for us to join?
You all have set up camp and have gotten to know each other. As you are talking the wind starts to brew. For those of you who have magic you get a tingling feeling in your hands. Those of you who don't have magic it as if night itself is engulfing the camp.
Tanon closes her fists tight and breaths in deeply, sensing something. It didn't feel like a storm, but storms came in many different forms, and for all she knew this could be a new kind. Mainland storms had felt different from the storms she felt at sea. "Something feels wrong." she murmurs to Herman.
((OOC Tanon's Half Elf can she see in this darkness?))
The wind picks up and completely extinguishes the campfire and the rustling of the trees now makes it hard to hear one another. Suddenly- a crack of green lightning flashes across the sky. Follow by another hitting a tree nearby making a branch fall to the ground.
Tanon jumps to her feet in an instant, picking up her staff and looking around for the source. She'd never seen lighting that color before. "Whoever you are!" she calls out, "come out here now!"
Emrys, sensing the unnatural weather shaping up, places his arms through his shield's straps. When the fire blows out he draws his sword, and stands with his back against the tree. "Blood and Ashes," he curses as the green lightening flashes, as he tests his grip on the longsword.
ooc: So I guess my question asnwered himself: we will be using this thread both as ingame and ooc thread, fine. Anyway, since we don't have a campaign link where to look at the others sheets, for the PC, could you at least make a brief description of yourselves , adding race and profession? At the moment I can only guess Tanon is an half-elvess, guessing Druid, what about Emrys?
HERMAN DESCRIPTION
HERMAN is human male in his twenties, broad shoulders, black hair and eyes, his face is not really...pretty... he has no beard and he got some little scars and also some acne.
Maybe for this reason he like to wear, over his normal clothes and armor, a wolf pelt whose helmet is indeed the wolf mouth: a grissly vision.
He always looks tense and on the lookout. He has an hygiene standard below the average.
Those who know him tells he is not bad-intended even if a little introverse, surely not a great speaker. He appreciates those in touch with the elements of mother earth, like Tanon.
IN GAME: Wrapping his pelt round his body tight, he swears under his breath for the terrible weather.
At first he is very disappointed for the fire that extinguished and was getting up to tend at it but then he, like the others, realize somethin strange is taken place, he quickly collects his two handeaxes. in case someone attacks them , he is ready to throw them.
