Campaign Summary

## The story so far...

There is not one Earth; there are many. They all exist simultaneously, contained within their own universe which itself is contained within the Wayspace. The Wayspace is not static, however. It flows and pulses and vibrates over time. Occasionally, two universes get close enough to touch. When this happens, two universes occupy the same place and one is destroyed. There is time, however, to prevent these disasters. If a hero is given the right tools at the right moment, the universe-ending collision can be avoided. But there are powers out there that desire the destruction of the universes, and simple creatures (like humans) could not possibly understand the machinations of gods, much less stop them from accomplishing their goals...

### Discovery of Powers and Joining the Order

During a routine game of frisbee golf, the Dyer Boys, Kirk, Luke, Dave, and Scott, discover an invisible gate to an alien bunker. Facing real danger for the first time in their lives, Kirk and Luke, with aid from Dave and Scott, discover their inherent powers. Dave and Scott are members of the Order of the Round, a secret society dedicated to the protecting Earth, but Dave has secretly been training Kirk and Luke in their abilities.

Fearing the worst, an incursion, the Boys race back to the house, only to discover an alien ship has crashed on the 8th green. After defeating the hostile invaders, the Boys make their way to the headquarters of the Order and are tasked with relocating and activating the Pacific wartime base of operations. After discovering the base in Deception Pass, the Boys (having been pursued by assassins) power up and rename it POO Base (Pacific Operations and Oversight). During this mission, the Boys had brief encounters with an assassin, The Minotaur, but were able to thwart his attacks.

The station's Gate Tracking Array (GTA) is restarted, and the greater Pacific Northwest is, indeed, spotted with gates. We are in the middle of an Incursion, a superposition of two parallel universes. A parallel Earth is colliding with our Earth.

### Investigating the Anomalous Gate

One anomalous gate appears on the GTA, and Dave, Kirk, and Luke are sent to investigate. Hang-gliding into the Olympic Rainforest, the Boys are beset by the Swarm (which look an awful lot like the Zerg). They find the anomalous gate, one that is propped open by a mysterious little device, and close it, but are quickly attacked and pursued by the Swarm. Floating down the river, the Boys fight off Swarm, but must make a stand when they get to the Visitor center, some time in the dead of night.

The Boys rally the ranger at the station and fight the oncoming Swarm and two assassins (a feline-humanoid, and a short, stocky fighter with a jetpack clad in all orange and black). Suffering grievous wounds, the Boys nearly perish if not for Dave entering a super-powered "avatar" state. The Zerg are slain and the assassins routed, the Boys pull themselves together and head back to POO Base. They become internet famous when a video of the fight goes viral, though their identities are still unknown (except to their closest friends).

### A Diplomatic Mission to Fallhaven

Scott and Kellie are sent on a diplomatic mission to the parallel Earth, and after a month of silence, Scott tasks the Boys with coming to that world. Guided by their magic compass, the Boys cross through a gate and make their way to the city of Fallhaven. Having survived nearly two weeks navigating the Broken Wilds, the Boys stumble into town and find Holly, the barkeep, who knows Scott and Kellie and helps the Boys reunite with them.

Scott reveals that significant progress has been made and the two earths seek a peaceful resolution to the Incursion, but in order for our earth to truly gain credibility (and for negotiations to continue), we must name our own Champions of Fallhaven. The Boys, having passed the First Trial (surviving in the Broken Wilds), are already scheduled for their Second Trial, which takes place in a few days.

Things aren't as peaceful as they seem in Fallhaven. The Boys come to learn that the city has three major powers: the Royal Family, the High Court, and the Aeon Priesthood. At the banquet before the Second Trial, the Boys discover two of those powers have united to overthrow the third: the Royal Family. Olassyel, the head of the Aeon Priesthood has rallied the High Court and is plotting against King Tarun. During the banquet, the High Court attempts to remove one of their own, Myriami, but their attempt is thwarted by the Boys.

### The Second Trial of the Dyer Boys

During the Second Trial, the Boys each defeat their trial Champion and pass their test. Upon doing so, they Boys (including Scott) are pulled into a white space and meet Eshreal, the oracle of this parallel Earth. She expresses surprise and puzzlement at the existence of the Dyer Boys. They contain the power of an oracle, though spread out between the four of them. She tells them they are from Earth Prime and mentions the oracle of their world has been silent for over 70 years.

Eshreal tells them she is a being from the Wayspace (the space containing all parallel universes) and informs them of a greater conflict. Seroch, an extremely powerful being of the same race as Eshreal, has been imprisoned in the Desolate World (the world the anomalous gate led to) but he is gaining in power. He has captured his brother Keroch, a paragon knight of the Wayspace. Eshrael tasks the Boys with ending the current incursion and rescuing Keroch from the Desolate World. She sends the boys back to the arena just in time for chaos.

Olassyel has decided this is her time to make her move. Calling forth the High Court's mercenary army and summoning an ultralisk, Olassyel charges for the Royal family who were observing the trial from their balcony. Assassins attempt to take the life of the Royals, but the King is a capable warrior and holds his own (along with Scott, Kellie, and his son Horgras). But in a horrifying twist, Horgras slays his father and escapes the Arena. The Boys defeat the ultralisk and slay Olassyel. Her death does not end the conflict as now Horgras has taken control of the Royal forces. He continues to fight against the mercenary army, and we still do not know his (or Olassyel's) true motivation. Why is Horgras still fighting the mercenary army? Was he allied with Olassyel? Who is good?

### The Halls of Sopharanatoth

After the chaos at the arena, the Boys escape to the Fallhaven Preservatory, a library with a monastic tradition, dedicated to the study and preservation of knowledge. Bop, the ancient keeper of the inner Sanctum, reveals as much as he can about events 200 years ago, during this Earth's last Incursion. Olassyel and Tarun, together, traveled to the Halls of Sopharanatoth and used an artifact they found there to end the Incursion. The specifics of that mission were known only to Olassyel and Tarun, but the result was that the wilds of this continent were broken, driving the animals insane and creating the Storm that has raged at the borders of Fallhaven for centuries.

The Boys then set out on their mission to the Halls of Sopharanatoth where they are to ask for permission from Sophara to use the powerful artifact. The small team must be careful, however, because legend says when the last incursion ended, her mind was partially broke. But the rest is yet to be written.
