The Plea. Chase requests the party’s assistance, as the Guild has called on Caset to do something that would jeopardize the future the siblings have worked so hard for, and ignoring the indenture would place a target on both siblings. We Are Family. Chase considers characters bearing the We Are Family mark of prestige from Castle Greyhawk part of their patchwork family and will remind them of…

CN male (he/him) human (Oeridian/Flan) Chase is broad-shouldered for a teen, with a streak of stubbornness that sometimes borders on recklessness. His skin is a warm, medium-brown, and his dark hair is cropped short. His clothes are ragged but well-mended, and he carries a battered shortsword as if for comfort as much as protection. Quick to pick a fight when cornered, he’s fiercely loyal to…

When the fight starts, if there’s a character in the party who either wields a two-handed weapon or is capable of doing so effectively, Aeldwyn tosses Breath-Taker to them. Breath-Taker is a Vicious Greatsword that deals 4d6 Slashing damage on a hit. Otherwise, she’ll hang onto it, but she isn’t able to wield it. If you’re using a map and minis, place Aeldwyn somewhere in the midst of the…

DAARKEN

It was a thin, stoop-shouldered man not much under six feet tall... His age was perhaps thirty-five, but the odd, deep creases in the sides of his neck made him seem older when one did not study his dull, expressionless face. He had a narrow head, bulging, watery blue eyes that seemed never to wink, a flat nose, a receding forehead and chin, and singularly undeveloped ears. His long, thick lip…

Make a Deal with the Lower Planes Your pact draws on the Lower Planes, the realms of perdition. You might forge a bargain with a demon lord such as Demogorgon or Orcus; an archdevil such as Asmodeus; or a pit fiend, balor, yugoloth, or night hag that is especially mighty. That patron’s aims are evil—the corruption or destruction of all things, ultimately including you—and your path is defined by…
