Stout Halfling

**Stout halflings** are shorter and stockier than other halflings, and they usually live among dwarves. Halflings are quiet, retiring, and do not seek attention. They are farm folk, pastoral people who don't get excited about much.

## Physical Characteristics

The stouts are about six inches shorter than other halflings, standing about 2'6" tall, and are comparatively stocky in build. They usually weigh between 30 and 35lbs. They have brown or black eyes. Halfling men often have long sideburns, but beards are rare among them and mustaches almost unseen. Halflings prefer simple, comfortable, and practical clothes. Unlike members of most races, they prefer actual comfort to shows of wealth.
Sahqo'Sonaak

**Sahqo'Sonaak** was once an orc cleric named Zisapat (pronounced zee-sah-pat). He was once the champion of the Isvernelkul before being appointed to priesthood by Tiamat herself whom he served during the Conflict of Gods. He ruled over the western portion of the ancient kingdom of Dovahgolt, now present day Athos, from his temple. He was granted lichdom by his dragon-queen but was ultimately defeated towards the end of the conflict when an army of orcs turned on him denouncing Milorth. His mask remained inside his temple until it was removed from its place by Aramil Galanodel during the Founding Wars.

He reappeared during The Battle of Burning Fields, leading his orc army to victory and killing the opposing commander, Gorag Stormblade, with an Incineration spell.
Dragonborn

## Appearance

### Skin Color

Metallic: Bronze, brass, copper, silver, gold; Chromatic: green, blue, red, white, black

### Eye Color

Red or gold.

**Dragonborn** are a race of draconic creatures native to Avernus and Celestia. In 1FA, they began to emerge from portals from Avernus into the world of Aetherea, most at the beckoning of the dragon goddess, Tiamat.

## Physical Characteristics

Standing on average around 6'2" – 6'8" (1.88–2.03 meters), dragonborn were impressively tall with a heavy weight to match, commonly possessing a mass of 220–320 lbs (100–145 kg). Dragonborn feet ended with three strong talon-like claws with a fourth claw in the back, while their hands were similar with three claws with a thumb replacing the rear claw. A dragonborn's head featured a blunt snout, a strong brow, and reptilian frills on the cheeks and ears. On the back of the head, a crest of hornlike scales formed what resembled a mess of ropy hair. Dragonborn eyes were usually red or gold in hue.

Dragonborn resembled in many ways what their name suggests: humanoid dragons. Dragonborn exhibited many draconic features, including a scaly hide, a large muscular body, and the capacity to use a breath weapon. The scales a dragonborn wore were scarlet, gold, rust, ocher, bronze, or brown in hue, though they in fact bore little correlation to a dragonborn's breath weapon and the scale colors of true dragons. The scales were typically in their greatest concentration around forearms, lower legs, feet, shoulders, and thighs, with a very fine leathery covering over the rest of the body.

With the proper training, dragonborn could learn to unlock more of their draconic potential, even to the point of sprouting wings with which to fly, like a dragon.

Like dragons, dragonborn were often mistaken for reptiles, but were in fact warm-blooded draconic creatures. In fact, the internal body temperature of the dragonborn was warmer than that of most similar races, being so hot as to seem feverish to the human touch. While this might seem disadvantageous, the lack of hair and large mouth allowed the dragonborn to displace body heat at an effective rate, meaning dragonborn were comfortable in cold climates while remaining no more vulnerable to heat than humans.
The Battle of Burning Fields

The Battle of Burning Fields was fought on the 2nd of Evening Star on the plains north of Selkirk. The Battle was named thus due to the use of pitch on the battlefield by the Umbrian forces to set the field on fire as a defensive tactic orchestrated by Gorag Stormblade, who had seize command of the forces. The Allied Forces were defeated when the lich warrior, Sahqo'Sonaak entered the battle on the back of the Great Wyrm, Corduth. Sahqo'Sonaak would disintegrate the Allied commander, Gorag, to the awe of his soldiers, and the presence of an ancient dragon was enough to make most flee.
Atherea

**Atherea** is the fourth planet on which most things exists in the Atherealm. It is centered of the cosmos with the Ethereal and Astral planes overlapping it. It has one moon, Ithil, which orbits the nearby planet.

### Geography

Atherea is roughly the size of Earth consisting of various continents and islands, including Hybrun, Calendor, Thule, Athos, and Land Beyond the Frost to name a few. Athos is a super continent centered in the middle of the world. The continents were once one super continent of Dovahgolt, which was home to the ancient kingdom of Eisshyr.

Continents

* Hybrun: the western-most continent ruled by Tordar Ashenhelm as a kingdom.
* Athos: a large super-continent diverse in population. It is home to the kingdoms of Umbria, Edheldor, Kar-Altan, and Torvald.
* Calendor: the east-most continent ruled by the high elves.
* Thule: north kingdom ruled by the dwarves.
* Land Beyond the Frost: northern most kingdom ruled by the frost giants formerly ruled by the dwarves before they were driven south.

### History

None now live to tell tales of the creation of Atherea but many assume that it like all things was willed into existence by the gods. At some point, the super continent of Dovahgolt was destroyed creating the world as it is today, this event is referred to as The Sundering, and some theorize that this occurred as a result of the Battle of the Gods that took place when the gods were mortal and walked the plane.
Aramil Araglas

**Aramil Araglas** was the last king of the kingdom of Eisshyr before the kingdom fell to ruin during the events of the Megamachtheon, where he had sided with the forces of good against the horde of the god Bane. He was known as "Everglass". He was buried among his other fallen comrades 3,500 years before the events of the campaign.
Session 46 - Revelations

Gorag, Daela, Adrik, and Sango would make their way back to Selkirk. They would find themselves under attack by a small orc scouting party while venturing eastward towards the orc encampment. Capturing one of the orcs they would interrogating him about how many other orcs were in the area. The party would make their way to a small orc encampment where the orc leader Vola was and through an elaborate near fatal battle, they would captured Vola who would heal the fallen Adrik before fleeing using a tree to teleport. The group would return to the tower, where they would find out from the commander, Efferil Ethelena, about Aramil and his killing of Loghain and the present state of the kingdom especially the line of succession which Efferil revealed might become into question when Ariadne, the former king's wife, gives birth to her child who by right would be the true heir to the throne. The group would return to Dunnet where guards were investigating the murder of the local fletcher before Gorag would stumble upon the dwarven blacksmith, Orsik Ironfist, who would procure for Gorag some new armor. It also turned out that Orsik is Adrik's cousin and the two bonded briefly over stories of their shared adventures before Orsik bestowed upon his cousin the sentient warhammer, Whelm, that Orsik acquired during his adventure to White Plume Mountain.
Milil

## Basic Information

### Title(s)

Lord of Song, Lord of All Songs, Guardian of Singers and Troubadours, One True Hand of All-Wise Oghma

## Worshipers

### Worshipers Alignment

Lawful Good, Neutral Good, Chaotic Good

**Milil** (pronounced *mil-LILL*), also known as the **One Who Watches While Music is Alive** and the **Guardian of Singers and Troubadours**, is the god of songs and poetry. He is depicted in religious art and song as a handsome male human or elf with a charismatic manner and a haunting, melodic voice. He is venerated by human, elf, and half-elf, bards.

Milil is the ultimate performer: self-confident, inspired, possessed of total recall or anything he sets a mind to remember, able to improvise facilely out of desire or necessity, well-educated in general theories of conduct and broad areas of knowledge, and masterful in all sorts of performance technique (including a passing knowledge of disguise derived from costume theory), especially within his sphere of knowledge—music, poetry, and elegant speech. However, he is also self-centered and egotistical and likes to be the center of attention. When he is not the center of attention, he bores easily, and his mind wanders or he leaves. He is also given to flirtation with both deities and mortals for his own enjoyment, to deep annoyance of more sober powers.

Milil often manifests as haunting music, particularly in clearing deep in woodlands. He appears as a wordless, lone male voice soaring through the air where no singer can be seen. At times, Milil draws the image of two dancing hollyphants in the air in glowing yellow lines or in ink (that appears from nowhere) on parchment to signify his approval. This seems to indicate his delight in watching such creatures dance to his music. More often, Milil manifests as a radiance surrounding a bard, storyteller, or epic poet in the throes of inspiration—a sight always heralding a performance that moves an audience to tears, blind obedience, enthusiastic offerings of money, or whatever else the performer desires them to do. Milil often places helpful visions (mental pictures of the whereabouts of treasure, lost loved ones, or directions overland) in the mind of a singer or musician who pleases him.

Milil also acts through the appearance or presence of aasimar (all accomplished singers), hollyphants, light aasimons, movanic devas and solars. More commonly he sends songbirds especially nightingales, white horses or pegasi, calico cats, red or yellow roses, lilies, peonies, perfect gemstones of any sort, and peregrine falcons to show his favor and as a sign to inspire his faithful.

## Worshipers

Clerics of Milil, or Sorlyns as they are called, pray for spells upon awakening at sunrise, calling out to the Lord of Song with the Song of Praise, which is also sung after every victory in battle or great thing that benefits them.

## History

Milil served under Oghma during the events of the Megamachtheon. It is said that his voice inspired the soldiers of good to victory over the forces of Bane.
Megamachtheon

**The Megamachteon,** commonly known as **The Conflict of the Gods and sometimes referred to as the Gods' War, was a series of battles** in which the combined forces of Tyr, Ilmater, and Torm defeating the forces of the evil-aligned god, Bane.

During the conflict the mortal Ilmater was tortured relentless by the
Cormac Ashenhelm

Cormac Ashenhelm is the eldest son of Tordar Ashenhelm, the King of Hybrun, and the heir apparent to the throne of Hybrun.

He was born in 23 BFA to Tordar and his wife, Elia Fontaine, a maiden of a lesser noble house. He was shown to be very good at archery and riding and is said to be one of the few people in the world who have mastered the art of horseback archery. In 1FA, he along with his father, crossed the Western Sea to Athos to provide aid to the newly founded kingdom of Umbria and lay claim to the Western shores of the continent of Athos.
Dovahgolt

**Dovahgolt,** sometimes referred by scholars as Mirminador (Elves: "Land of Many Towers"), is an ancient kingdom that was once the seat of the gods where they walked the mortal plane before the events of Megamachtheon. It is known for primarily as its name implies, for the many towers that surround the lands especially the eight towers that surround the nation's capital of Balanlond. The kingdom fell into disarray after the Sundering and it has only recently begun to see activity again as portals from Avernus have begun to open up and the followers of Tiamat have begun to seek ways to bring their Queen back to the mortal plane. The followers of Tiamat see their Queen as the rightful ruler of the land.
Heorot

The Winter Keep, the royal seat of Torvald.

**Heorot** is the capital city of the Kingdom of Torvald in the north Athos. It was founded in 40 BFA, when the Dwarves of Thule crossed the northern sea and colonized the northern shore. It was hewed into the mountain side and has become a center of knowledge housing its own library rivaled only by the Acadium Arcana. It is ruled by an order of mages known as The Volshebnik (Dwarvish: "wizards"), comprised of the three ruling houses of Torvald: Ironheart, Frostbeard, and Stonebreaker.

## Etymology

The name "Heorot" is derived from the name of the mead-hall of the Danish king, Hroogar, in the Anglo-Saxon epic poem, *Beowulf.* Heorot itself is a translation of "Hall of the Hart".

Session 8 - "The Mirror of Paerosi"

*The following is an excerpt from the journal of Asha Dorne:*

The egg has hatched and the little guy is quite adorable, hungry and adorable. I don't think Aramil is a fan of him though. We kept travelling heading along the coastline. We end up bathing in the ocean and I'm pretty sure I caught Aramil checking me out. We ended up in a small village with a statue and took up residence in the night in one of the houses. There was a mirror on one of the doors and I swear I saw myself with Ronbertlen Rossingstrom and children bearing resemblance to ourselves and I was mesmerized by it. I spent the night in a bed with Aramil's wolf at my feet and he slept on the floor, well he tried to sleep, I think he saw something in the mirror that disturbed him. I was awaken by the fire in the room across the hall and we quickly evacuated with the mirror in our possession. The statue had changed, it was now a large dragon, and the buildings were gone. The mirror seemingly belongs to a man named Goldervan and I believe our intentions are to return it to him wherever he may be.
Loviatar

**Loviatar** (pronounced *loh-VEE-a-tar*), also known as **The Maiden of Pain** and **The Willing Whip**, is the evil goddess of agony and was both queen and servant to the greater god Bane. Loviatar is a cold-hearted bully, calculating and despotic; she is the master of inflicting physical and psychological suffering and her portfolio included Pain, Hurt and Torture. Her symbol is a nine-stranded whip, with barbed strands

## Worshipers

Bringing pain and suffering was the aim of all Loviatans, either through physical torture or sometimes more subtly and psychologically. Beauty, intelligence and acting were useful attributes of a Loviatan, but the ability to fully understand someone was the best skill a Loviatan could acquire, as knowing someone fully could help a Loviatan inflict maximum pain, one way or another.

Loviatans often engaged in self-flagellation, often in the morning when praying for spells. They celebrated each season with the *Rite of Pain and Purity,* a ritual that involved followers dancing on glass, thorns or barbed-wire while being whipped by higher-level Loviatans. A smaller ritual occurring every twelve days involved followers passing their bodies through the flames of candles.

During warfare, priestesses of Loviatar scourged their naked shoulders or tore their cheeks with their nails to evoke magic.

## Orders

Disciples of the White Rod

These monks of the faith of Loviatar were named in honor of the token granted to their founder by Loviatar and held in the home abbey near Calimport as a relic

## History

As a servant of Bane and the goddess of pain, Loviatar was tasked with breaking the god and she did this to the god of endurance, Ilmater, when she captured him and tortured him for the majority of the Megamachtheon's duration.
Gainor Amcathra

**Gainor Amcathra** is the current Lord of Redhill. His eldest living son, Darvin Amcathra, is a member of The Silver Flames and his son, Moryn, has become a sworn member of the Redguard.

He is a descendant of Boden Amcathra, known commonly as Boden the Bold, a hero of the Southlands who fought against the invading northerners during The Age of Conquest.
Emerald Enclave

The **Emerald Enclave** is a faction within the city of Ebonport made up of druids, mostly elves or half-elves of Eisshyr descent. Their druidic nature makes preservation of nature their primary goal although they do not interfere with the progression of civilization, they often work with the Lord's Alliance to ensure that the nature of Hybrun is maintain and not interfered with in development. The faction neither adheres to good or evil in this sense instead choosing to take a neutral stance.

### Dogma

The aims of the Enclave are six-fold:

* Preserve nature in all its forms
* Control human expansion
* Recognize that nature encompassed more than just forests
* Agree that magic should not be used for mass destruction
* Warn against the use of magic on a grand scale for fear of unexpected side effects
* Present a united front to the outside world

### Hierarchy

The Enclave had the following ranks from lowest to highest: Springwarden, Summerstrider, Autumnreaver, Winterstalker, and Master of the Wild.

### History

The Emerald Enclave was founded shortly after The Eisshyr Revolution of 394 BFA as a means of maintaining a truce between Hybrun and The Eisshyr. It is not uncommon for the Chieftain of the Eisshyr to use the Enclave as a spy network on the Lord's Alliance and as such the Chieftain often has some rangers initiated into the Enclave's ranks to ensure that this peace is maintained.
Vedviidost

**Vedviidost** is the name of dragon priest of Tiamat who had been born Usiku of Kar-Altan but was given to the dragon goddess in exchange for his father assuming rulership of Kar-Altan.

The Eisshyr

**The Eisshyr** people are the inhabitants of the Isharri Wilds on the continent of Hybrun, west of Athos. Not much is known about these peoples but what has been studied of them two things are certain: they are mostly if not all wood elves and they like their isolation from society.

**Common Traditions**

*“Dethola”: The Choosing*

What has been researched by Goldervan is that the Eisshyr people have a tradition called by them, the “Dethola” or in the common tongue, the Choosing, in which the tribe elects from its members the best person to become the new chieftain. This is often in the event of the passing of a chieftain or the even rarer case, a “N'umacora” is called in which the members of the tribe vote that the current chieftain has failed them in some aspect. From what Goldervan has deducted, no such practice has occurred in over a millennia and even then no records have showed that such a thing has ever occurred though it is still an option in the realm of the tribe’s democracy to allow for a vote of no confidence in their leadership. The site of the Choosing is traditionally at the Oiraorn at the center of the Elven city of Mellune.

*“Altafara”: The Great Hunt*

According to Goldervan’s notes on the Eisshyr people, they have an annual tradition of a mass tribal hunt. This is often seen in their society as a rite of passage among the indoctrine younger elven folk and is followed shortly thereafter by a wonderful feast.

*“Winyacoia”: New Life*

The Eisshyr people traditionally make a pilgrimage to the Oiraorn whenever a child is to be born. It is said that a child born under the shades of the glowing tree will be imbued with some of the tree’s magical power. There is some truth to this statement however not all children born under the tree are imbued with magical powers and the tree only increases the chance of a child having such arcane powers.

*"Oiracoia": Eternal Life*

The Eisshyr also make a pilgrimage to the Tradeth in the event of a family member's death. This event is meant to welcome their family member into the Ndor'enfaradeth (Elvish: "Land of Eternal Hunt", the realm created by the goddess Gaelin where she dwells.

## **Known Members**

**Aelen Galanodel, chieftain of the Eisshyr.Vankoris Rochirion, half-brother of Loghain Rothbrok.Aramil Galanodel, son of Aelen and an Eisshyr ranger.Ehlomir Rochirion, eldest son of Vankoris RochirionErden Rochirion II, youngest son of Vankoris Rochirion.Ariadne Rochirion, daughter of Chieftain Aelen.**
Session 2 - "The Temple of the Red Dragon"

*The following is an excerpt from the journal of Orsik Ironfist:*

That half-elven bastard woke me up early today, if he wasn’t my lord I’d show him a thing or two about waking a sleeping dwarf. We’re going back to the blasted tower today, god knows why, I don’t think there’s much to see here but the whole town is worried about those bloody Sharp-Fangs ever since that wood elf fellow brought that damn skull back to town the other day. Frankly, I find him a bit of a nuisance but he is better company then most.

The tower had a door, wonder why we didn’t notice that the first time around? Most of missed it over all the commotion over that freaking mask. The blasted places was infested with those Sharp-Fangs like it was there home or something, maybe it was but it was for long. Between me and that pointy-earred fellow we must have slewed most of them, don’t think there were any left after we were done. There was this pamphlet of source and that half-elf magicky miss told us that it was about the coming of a dragon queen! Can you believe that between those bloody Sharp-Fangs and dragons, how is dwarf like myself going to find any time to just settle down and enjoy the good life of ale? Doesn’t matter really though, not sure what this all means but the elf fellow is right about one thing I don’t like the sounds of this Tiamat thing, not in the slightest.

Elf fellow has a thing for a little flesh ripper, brought one back with him to Stormhaven, called him Steeve. Guess you can’t kill the poor thing now that he’s named it? Oh well might as well make the most of it. That elf fellow asked me to stud his armor for him, guess I might as well make myself useful.

Lightfoot Halfling

**Lightfoot halflings** are the most common type of halflings seen in the world, in large part due to their famous wanderlust. Lightfoots are most comfortable living alongside other cultures, even adopting their cultural practices, right down to their deities.

## Physical Characteristics

A typical lightfoot halfling stands around four feet tall and weighs around 80 pounds.Their skin colors range from light pink to slightly reddish or bronze, and their hair color is typically auburn, brown or black. Males usually wear their hair short on the sides, often with a mullet or bowl cut. Facial hair among males is rare except for extremely old halflings. Females rarely allow their hair to grow beyond shoulder length.When not adventuring or entertaining others, halflings prefer simple, well-made clothes that are comfortable to wear yet look attractive.
Ver Jogak

The Orc settlement of **Ver Jogak** was located northeast of Stormhaven. It was assaulted by Aramil Galanodel who believes the Orcs to be responsible for the food that was stolen. It is the primary stronghold of the Isvernelkul (“Ones without blood” in Orcish) tribe. It was seized by Loghain Rothbrok following the Battle of Stormhaven and was rechristened Ironrock.
Hill Giant

**Hill giants** are giants of low intelligence that lived in hilly regions across Athos.

## Physical Characteristics

Hill giants were short and stocky in comparison to other giants. They were extremely muscular, capable of hurling boulders up to 300 lbs. through the air. The reason hill giants appeared to be more muscular than other giants was because of their shorter limbs, but taller giants, such as fomorians, were still much more powerful.
Fairharbor

Fairharbor was a small town located on the continent of Hybrun. It was destroyed when the red dragon, Corduth the Wicked, burnt it to the ground. It was the home of Aramil Galanodel‘s wife, Katraine, who perished in the blaze. Many of the town’s refugees have joined with Loghain Rothbrok and found a new home across the sea in Stormhaven.
The Hom Prophecy

**The Hom Prophecy** was a prediction made by the divination mage, Hom the Seer, about the return of Tiamat. It spoke of a hero born from fire who would lead an army against the Dragon Queen but also mentions that many would perish before the battle was over and that the world would be consumed with war. It is also referred to as "The Dragon Queen Prophecy".
Ithilion Celebrindal

## Lord Ithilion Celebrindal of Linaedor

**Ithilion Celebrindal** is the high elf prince of the kingdom of Calendor in eastern Athos and of Edheldor and the younger brother to Calendor's king, Othargil, and son of Lafavar, King of Edheldor. He is first in line to the throne of Calendor and second in line behind his brother to the throne of Edheldor.

He has since taken an oath to defend the crown and country that his elder brother rules, swearing fealty before the gods that he would defend the kingdom of Calendor and its people from harm. This oath has brought him to the Veiling Woods, where he seeks to uncover the mystery of the dark woods and its strange inhabitants.

In "Feywild, Part 1", Ithilion became the Lord of Linaedor when he drew the Throne Card from the Deck of Many Things.

## Worshipers

### Worshipers Alignment

Neutral Good, Lawful Neutral, Neutral, Chaotic Neutral, Neutral Evil

**Waukeen** (pronounced wah-KEEN) is a lesser deity known as the Merchant's Friend, Liberty's Maiden, and the Golden Lady. Her portfolio includes everything related to commerce and the accumulation of wealth through free and fair trade, as well as the beneficial use of wealth to improve civilization. Those that venerated and appeased her included merchants from lowly peddlers to the wealthy owners of trading companies, investors, accountants, entrepreneurs, caravan guides, warehouse owners, philanthropists, deal-makers, moneylenders, and so on. Waukeen was also the goddess of illicit trade and the patron of many smugglers, fences, black marketeers, and "businessmen" on the shady side of commerce. Collectively, her worshipers were known as Waukeenar.

## Worshipers

Ornate temples to the glory of the Golden Lady were usually found in centers of commerce with the most prominent temple being found with the Medici in Lutetia. Her clerics and other worshipers traveled the trade routes aiding merchants and caravans or worked in the opulent temples as hosts for wealthy donors, moneylenders, currency exchangers, venture capitalists, warehousers, fences (covertly, of course) and, most importantly, security guards.

## History

It is likely Waukeen funded both sides during the Megamachtheon in an arms race due to her neutral alignment.
Lord's Alliance

The **Lord's Alliance** is a partnership of the southern cities of Hybrun founded in 30 BFA under King Bothvar. Its members consist of the ruling lords of Fairlight, Fairharbor, Pennath, Whitestable, Maidstone, Kingsmouth, Redhill, Selborne, and Pembroke. It was formed to oppose the grown influence of The Ebon Vipers in the North and revolutions instigated by ousted Northern lords and their children as well as the traitorous Loghain Rothbrok.

The alliance usually hires adventurers to work for them on tasks ranging from gathering information, or even for use in raids against Ebon Viper strongholds and outposts. Local adventurers could quickly gain status, as well as powerful friends by helping the aliance, but can just as easily make enemies of the Vipers as a result.

Upon learning of the plot to release Tiamat, the Alliance quickly mustered their forces to deal with the threat sending ships to Umbria to aid in the newly founded kingdom's defense, sending half their forces across the Essen Ocean.

Selborne

**Selborne** is a small city in the south of Hybrun. It uses a canal system as oppose to roads that are more common in the kingdom and is known for its delicious cuisine and is very patriotic. People here live a harmonious lifestyle, loving the coast and the luxury of being one of the prettiest cities within the kingdom.
Corduth

**Lotagyol ( Lotagyol : "great burning fire")**, known more commonly by his Common name of Corduth, is an adult red dragon responsible for the burning of Fairharbor that resulted in Aramil’s burn scars.

The Wyrm made his presence known in Athos during The Battle of Burning Fields where he was mounted by the lich warrior, Sahqo'Sonaak, and help turn the tide of the battle in the favour of the Cult of the Dragon.
Bjorn Dragonbane

**Bjorn Dragonbane** is a mythical figure in the history of Hybrun who is said to be the first person to kill a dragon when the kingdom was still expanding. His name has become a staple of those living in the city of Whitestable and is the namesake of the Bjornbarn, a group of mercenaries who claim to be direct descendants of the hero himself.

His weapon, Dragonbane, has become an artifact in the possession of the leader of the Bjornbarn, Lokir Bjornson.
Rock Gnome

**Rock gnomes** are a curious, childlike race very much unlike their cousins, the deep gnomes and the forest gnomes.

## Physical Characteristics

Rock gnomes are typically between 3 to 3½ feet tall and weigh anywhere from 40 to 45 lbs. They possess a natural brownish tint to their skin; the presence or absence of light has little effect upon it. Young rock gnomes possess any of a large number of hair colors that fades to gray or white upon reaching adulthood. Male gnomes typically keep beards groomed in a neat manner
Gnoll

### Hair Color

Light or dark brown fur marked with spots and stripes, dirty yellow to reddish gray mane

### Eye Color

Black

**Gnolls** are a humanoid race that most closely resemble hyenas that dwell in Athos and are known for their savage culture and warlike ways.

## Physical Characteristics

Gnolls are extremely tall, with the average member of the race standing on average between 7' and 7'6". Though gnolls are relatively lean for their height, weighing in usually between 280 to 320 lbs, the race cuts an impressive visage. In part because of their height and lean musculature, gnolls are very quick compared with many other races such as humans. Gnoll skin is a greenish-gray, and their furry hide is light or dark brown marked sometimes with spots or stripes. Many gnolls also have a dirty yellow to reddish-gray crest-like mane that stands on end when a gnoll is angry.

It is believed by some that gnolls have traces of demonic blood, which may be evidenced by unusual features found among some of the gnoll bloodlines. These may include talons, gleaming red eyes, or black fur with fiery orange spots.[4]

Female gnolls are indistinguishable from males by size, in spite of a reputation for being shorter. In fact, so similar are male and female gnolls in appearance that they are often mistaken for one another. The only reliable way to tell the difference, other than through a close physical examination, is if a female is pregnant or openly nursing.

Gnolls have very short lifespans when compared with other sapient humanoids, living only 30 or so years on average and maturing to adulthood at a remarkable speed. Gnolls do not, however, age particularly dramatically except at the end of their lifespans, at which point the decline is sharp and deadly, quickly ending in death. When a gnoll died, its bones were sometimes harvested by the other gnolls and animated by rituals into a witherling, a type of skeletal gnoll.
Vimak Stonebreaker

**Vimak Stonebreaker, known commonly as Vimak**, is a Goliath fighter hired by Aramil to protect him from bounty hunters following the events of  "Escape from Dalanzadgad, Part II". He is not bright but means well and he seems very compassionate.

He was killed by Shava Gemflower when she stabbed him in the foot with the Soulblade while he was possessed by a ghost.
Dalanzadgad

**Dalanzadgad** is the name of prison within the city of Heorot. It was carved into the mountain by those who first arrived in Athos in 40 BFA. It is heavily fortified with magical spells and has only one known exit that being the iron gates however even these are magically sealed and can only be opened by a member of Torvald's Mage Council. The whole prison is under a delayed anti-magic field allowing for authorities to teleport prisoners to their cells but not much else.

## Notable Prisoners

* Aramil Galanodel - charged with two counts of murder, theft, assault on a law officer
* Shava Gemflower - charged with being an accessory to two counts of murder, theft, and assault on a law officer
Half-Elf

**Half-elves**, as usually defined, are humanoids born through the union of an elf and a human. Whether a half-elf is raised by their human parent or their elven parent, they feel isolated and alone.Because they take around twenty years to reach adulthood, they mature quickly when raised by elves (who think they look like humans), making them feel like an outsider in either place.
The Raven Queen

The name of the god of death is long forgotten, but she is called the Raven Queen. She is the spinner of fate and the patron of winter. She marks the end of each mortal life, and mourners call upon her during funeral rites, in the hope that she will guard the departed from the curse of undeath. She expects her followers to abide by these commandments:

* Hold no pity for those who suffer and die, for death is the natural end of life.
* Bring down the proud who try to cast off the chains of fate. As the instrument of the Raven Queen, you must punish hubris where you find it.
* Watch for the cults of Cadriel and stamp them out whenever they arise.

## History

All that is known about the Raven Queen before her ascension into godhood is that she was a powerful sorceress who served under Kelemvor. She betrayed the God of Dead killing him and usurping his position as the Goddess of Dead and erasing her true name from the world during the events of Megamachtheon.
Pembroke

**Pembroke** is the western most city in Hybrun and is known for its tough warriors and piety, most of their soldiers are also members of the Church of Justice or Church of the Loyal Fury. One of the more notable traits of the city is its gate way is that of a large Blue Dragon skull, that belonged to the dragon Sgointair, who was killed about 1000 years ago during the western expansion.

Though ruled by Oriana Archer, the city is also highly influenced by the presence of the Church of the Loyal Fury and the Church of Justice as well as the College of Music.
Beric Bronzearm

**Beric Bronzearm** is a dwarf miner currently residing in Ironrock, where he has been named Lord of Ironrock. He founded the Lonesome Bard Inn and Tavern in Stormhaven where he worked until Umbria took control of Ver Jogak following the Battle of Stormhaven. He was named Lord of Ironrock sometime during Session 11 - "Escape from Dalanzadgad, Part I" and Session 12 - "Escape from Dalanzadgad, Part II". He is also the cousin of Orsik Ironfist.
Aeron Kain

**Aeron Kain** was the champion of Ayr under Lord Bjorn Craig during The Tournament of Storms. Renown for being one of the best swordsman in the world, he has mastered the art of dual-wielding to such an extent that he has been referred to as "The Lord of Blades". He fought on the side of Loghain during the Ebonport Revolution.
Orc

**Orcs** are a race of humanoids that have been a threat to the civilized cultures of Aetherea, particularly Athos for as long as any can remember. They fought alongside Bane during the Conflict of the Gods.

## Physical Description

Orcs vary in appearance, based on region and subrace, but all share certain physical qualities. Orcs of all kinds usually have grayish skin, coarse hair, stooped postures, low foreheads, large muscular bodies, and porcine faces that feature lower canines that resemble boar tusks. Many also have wolf-like ears that are pointed on the ends, similar to elves. Orcs are roughly the same size as humans.
"Session 42 - Tyranny of Dragons, Part VI - Into the Wild"

With help from the dryad at the Temple of Corellon, the party of Erden, Sariel, and Everly entered the Feywild with hopes of hunting down a displacer beast that Erden could fashion into a Cloak of Displacement, being cautioned by Arakoris that time in the Feywild does not pass in the same manner of that it does on the Material Plane. Returning to the Material Plane, after an encounter with the Great Oak, a guardian of the Eisshyr people found deep within the Feywild, the party found that a month had passed and that the forces stationed at Haulkeen were defeated and the city captured by the alliance of the Cult of the Dragon and the Orc Horde and the surviving Allied forces retreated the lake-town of Dunnet, where an Elven enclave was created to house the Eisshyr soldiers. Erden questioned Arakoris about the dragons in the area. He learned of a Green Dragon in the Ayr area to the south and the party travelled there and were confronted by the Green Dragon, Venomfang. The Green Dragon proved too much for the party, killing the Green Dragonborn bard, before flying off towards its cavernous lair, which Sariel collapsed.
Lucien Sorel

**Lucien Sorel** was the twin brother of Annabelle Sorel and the son of Ser Absolon Sorel, a knight of Lutetia. As a child, he was kicked in the head by horse causing him to become a simpleton. He is fond of picture books and willingly recounts their tales as if they were historical fact.

Bullied as a child, he was often see alongside his father who he admired for his bravery and skill in combat, it was his father in fact that taught him archery. Staying within the company of his father, Lucien was often seen in court speaking with Merre Auguste de la Rosa, who noticed the young man's skills and used him as a spy within his court, believing that no one would suspect someone of so low intellect to be a spy. He would eventually attract the attention of the Blackhearts, the mercenary group under the control of the Silver Bank, and they would use him to try an assassinate his sister who owed a heavy debt to the Bank. Luckily for his sister, Lucien would screw this up and accompanying Shava Gemflower and a nameless wizard to the Veiling Woods, where they would be joined by Vena, a paladin of The Raven Queen.

Due to his low intelligence, Lucien was susceptible to mind-control from an unknown force, that would tell him "not to trust the others". The events at the cabin would only drive the wedge deeper between Lucien and Shava and the nameless wizard, although he would quickly befriend Vena asking her about her religion and how he can become like her.

Lucien died during fight with a troll, defeating the troll before succumbing to his wounds in Session 22 - "Trolls, Fires, and Pyres".

Thunder tries to board one of the ships but is stopped before he could by one of the king's guards.

Session 28 - All Things Lost

With Nameless dead at the hands of Yogg Soran, the party contemplated what they would do with their friend. Shava had started a divination ritual whilst Ithilion began to rummage through the dragon's hoard, stumbling upon a mysterious deck of cards and an efreeti lamp. Drawing a card from the deck, Ithilion summoned forth the avatar of death who swiftly slashed the high-elven prince across the chest with his scythe. Knowing that he would be bested by his assailant, Ithilion turned to his efreeti and wished the avatar away, unsure whether or not it would work. In a puff of smoke, the avatar of death was gone. Shava had informed the party that there was a cleric in the nearby village of Ashmarch that could possibly bring their dead friend back to life. Wasting no time, Ithilion quickly wished for himself and his friends to be teleported to the village of Ashmarch and so it was.

The people of Ashmarch took no notice of their prince as the group made their way to the temple, where they were greeted by an elderly gnome cleric, who informed them that it would cost them 5,000 gp to bring their friend back to life. Feeling that his wishes were limited, Ithilion used what would be his last wish to bring the wizard back to life - it was successful! Things for the party were looking up until Venna drew the Void Card from the deck and instantaneous collapsed, her soul ripped from her body. Shava again made contact with Venna's god, The Raven Queen, in hopes of bringing her soul back to her body and the Raven Queen conceded and Venna was restored. Leaving the temple, Ithilion was pelted with rotten food and stones, the villagers having found out that he was their tyrant king's brother and Ithilion was informed that his brother presumed he was dead and had stripped him off all his titles. Feeling betrayed, he stripped himself of the last remaining symbol of his ties to his brother, his White Tree sield of the Whiteoak Centuria. Sitting in a tavern with nothing left to do, Ithilion presented his friends with the deck of cards. Shava drew one card from the deck depicting a throne and Nameless drew two, one depicting a set of ruins and the other depicting a jester.
