Beginnings Part 2

"Beginnings Part 2" is the second of two introductory episodes for the original five player characters of the Ballad of the Nightmare Krew. The episode is comprised of three separate one-on-one sessions.
==Official Description==
"The final round of character intro one shots. Meet Ryujin Valtameri, Ember of a Forgotten Fire, and Lilith La Fleur."
==Plot==
===Session 1: Ryujin===
The first session introduces the character of Ryujin Valtameri, a human ranger.
Ryujin tracks a large wolf near the Seraphic Tear. In a crevasse, he finds a formation of lightning glass containing an egg-shaped rock. The wolf appears; Ryujin kills it and takes its three pups, selling two and keeping the third.
After collecting the bounty for the wolf, Ryujin travels to The Last Stop caravan post, where he is hired by a centaur named Modell to protect the caravan on its way to Kamden Mesa. During the journey, the caravan is attacked by bandits, which Ryujin and others fend off. Modell offers to connect Ryujin with a friend of his in Kamden Mesa for work.
===Session 2: Ember===
The second session introduces the character of Ember of a Forgotten Fire, a tabaxi warlock.
After a job gone wrong, Ember finds a genie's lamp in a tunnel, and accepts her offer of power in exchange for finding specific magical items. The genie, Amber, then transports Ember to Kamden Wharf, where he steals from a local winery before posing as a health inspector to conduct reconnaissance on the Longhorn boathouse. That night, Ember infiltrates the boathouse, only to find a human, Cora Thorton, attempting to steal the same item as he is: a tablet with an embedded crystal. They agree to work together, fighting their way out and escaping on horseback to Kamden Mesa.
===Session 3: Lilith===
The third session introduces the character of Lilith La Fleur, a moon elf rogue.
Lilith wakes to a bandit attack on the caravan, fighting them off with the other travelers. Later, she sees a woman, Olga, playing a violin. Lilith gets caught during her attempt to steal it, but Olga surprisingly offers her the violin in exchange for stealing something else: a map. Lilith locates the map in the tent of another traveler, but is once again caught, and once again talks herself free. Lilith delivers the map to Olga, who gives her the violin. 
In Kamden Mesa, Olga connects Lilith with some friends of hers who are hiring for a job.
