Earlier adventures:
With the campaign being played for about twenty years, it is impossible to fully detail everything that occured. Various events that happened in game play have been retconned in later years to allow for character development for story writing, but as this article deals with the campaign, it will focus on events as they happened in play.
The campaign started soon after the Battle of Heddenfields with Timien having just had a meeting with Emperor Artemius VII. The meeting was related to Timien's engagement to a young lady of a prominent noble family gone sour, as the lady found herself another beau and was anxious to wriggle out of the engagement. His Imperial Majesty arranged to have the engagement annulled. Now left with a fuming Timien, the Emperor arranged to get him out of town to cool off and satisfy his own curiosity at the same time, so he told him to gather some comrades and set off on a fact finding trip around the world.
Timien's direct supervisor, the Imperial Lord High Chancellor Marcus Comferic found himself in embarrassing straits with his female bodyguard Feyannyha Lacourbeshay and it became politically expedient to send her away, and she was attached to Timien's mission. Timien also recruited his friends George Tulwyn and Clarissa Garneman, and George dragged along his buddy Barnaby Karmuliken who dragged along his buddy Azgar Taagenhof. Two other long forgotten PC's joined with this small horde, an inept fiddler bard played by Tim Gillihan, and a rogue played by Chris James. The group decided to travel west, and they went to Delternas.
Tim somewhat conveniently lost his fiddler, with the explanation that a proposal from a wealthy noblelady sent him scurrying back to town, and Lyus Sleyden entered the scene, with Kristara Haleven in tow.
Lyus had wandered into the a bar in Delternas on the wrong side of town. One which didn't like Sleydens, not half-elves much either. Timien and the expedition entered the bar as Lyus was being bullied and beaten. Ever cocky, Timien dared the riffraff to try the same with someone who could defend themselves, namely himself (prett funny as he as a low-level mage at the time).
After Timien brutally punished a number of bar patrons with his Dark Hand martial arts, the bar decided they would look for prey who were less well defended.
