The Remnants Wiki

## **Welcome to Remnant**

Remnant was created so that those who want to can play D&D at nearly any hour of the day. This server is based on the 5e system and has a lore-rich world that players can explore and fight in to their heart's content.

This server is centered on a single city, Remnant, where the majority of player to player interactions will occur. The adventures are based on the problems in the city and the surrounding world.

There are many options when it comes to running missions. They can be done through voice and text, text only, play by post. Most missions are run through the theater of the mind, or via photos in discord, but if a DM wants to use Roll20, that is also allowed.

Finally escaped from captivity, our intrepid reporter Monrue Bauer returns with a summary of the tumultuous election in Keltane!
After my tour of the Far Western Marches, I had entered the Old North Marches, Keltane’s original homelands. Here the old ways held strong, and although the ancient capital of Lightsbarrow is only a shadow of its former glory, the people of the North Marches hold a great amount of pride in their past. The mines rang with fervent chatter about Ruhm Hills and her embrace of the legacy Kelemvor’s church buried. The cracked and weathered streets of Lightsbarrow thrummed with support for Kai Sarune, the “Soup Mage”, while Daern Crocker’s glorious rhetoric only made bitter veterans mutter into their cups. Rosemary Bower’s ejection from the election came as no surprise, but her vocal support for the young Garrod Smith caused nearly as much uproar as the news of Rubio Lehron’s gracious exit and quiet support for the incumbent Sarah Miller.
As the young and ambitious orc visionary’s campaign picked up speed, I followed Garrod east to the Near Marches. These were Daern Crocker’s homelands, the site of his victories against the Steelborn Empire and the goblin hordes under Warlord Kricha’s banner. Town gates opened reluctantly for the young orc’s caravans, scorched walls and monuments etched with the names of generations telling more stories than the silent minstrels with their lutes or the somber taverns. Kai Sarune’s soup kitchens and bread wagons had the ears of wounded warriors and barefoot farmhands, but the crafting guilds and guard companies had ears for none but Daern Crocker’s trumpets. Kai Sarune’s departure was expected, but the support and funds continued to funnel in as the “Soup Mage” established safe havens in his wake, moving from vagabond camps to starving refugees.
The Bloody Southern Marches were sick of the drums of soldiers and the glorious banners in the wind. Their wars were not won, their sons did not come home, and their daughters still carried on the battle. A comrade’s place at the campfire was merely their due, but Sarah Miller held their loyalty. The prodigal daughter had remembered her mothers’ pain, her steadfast support had been the backbone of the Promised Colleges and debt relief programs that afforded a devastated people a chance at recovery. But Garrod’s vision of the future seemed brighter to the generation Sarah Miller’s reforms had given a second chance. His vision of a revitalized economy was more captivating than mere debt relief, and what fear do mere foreigners hold for a generation that faced their ancestor’s ghosts and won?
As we headed into Keltane’s final region: the Central Province, and Keltane’s heart, rumors caught my ears of a falling out between Sarah Miller and her ally, Rubio Lehron, the former law mage. His time away from the cities in the Central Province had reinforced his view that Keltane desperately needed a reformation, but he still believed that Sarah was best placed to do so with her experience and success with Keltane’s education system. But their discussion turned into a fierce debate as she refused to change course for fear of losing the support of Kelemvor’s Church and parted with the loss of their friendship. With that final blow, and the count of the penultimate round of votes ending, Lehron quietly disappeared from Sarah’s campaign. Dearn Crocker’s defeat seemed inevitable, but I still went to see the old warhorse and witness his reaction.
It was at this junction in the election that a drow raid into the central region of Keltane captured both me and Daern Crocker, their true target. It seemed his reputation had drawn the attention of some elven matriarch in the Spindel Theocracy, and she desired him as a possession. We both spent many cold, dark nights swapping theories ever more absurd to keep the fear at bay, everything from wishing Daern would join her harem of exotic dancers to desiring his hand in marriage, uniting two noble houses in a campaign to reunite the surface and the Underdark. I will never forget his laughter, bold and bright in the cold light before they separated us. Drow, drider, and duergar shivered at the sound, the last act of defiance.
Weeks later, some of Daern’s followers rescued me in search of him, abandoning my fellow slaves and I to reach the surface on our own as they continued the hunt. I believe they search for him still. Perhaps they always will. It was almost anticlimactic to emerge and find that Garrod Smith’s coalition had won the mayorship of this beleaguered country a few days past. Yet witnessing the cheering crowds still celebrating and the passionate beginning of a new order, I find myself revitalized. This is a new beginning for Keltane. The cold gaze of Kelemvor’s Church still watches over the country, but now the infamously neutral god witnesses the death of old grudges and half-born fears in favor of new friendships and half-lost hopes. In that same spirit, I too am moving on to new journeys. I hope to share them with you too dear readers!
***BREAKING NEWS: AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT IN KELTANE!***
Now for a special piece from our correspondent in Keltane! This intrepid Mul has journeyed halfway across the continent to give us continuous updates on the events in Keltane during the election. Performing a circuit through Keltane's various Marches, Monrue Bauer will also be providing our readers with a look at the people of this proud nation!
With Daern Corcker barely escaping an attempted assassination his support has risen among the people here in the Far Western Reaches. Proud farmers facing the deadly undead, drow raiders, and even the occasional orc bandits and mutants from the Warped Lands, these people are mostly human, with a few pockets of orcs and half-orcs in those villages that trade with the orc nation of Varrasham. With the swamps ever expanding, and disease beginning to rise with the spread of creatures of the bog, Rosemary Bowers' promises of support and renewal are a closely held hope for these people. While Kelemvor's church is dominant and dear to a people so intimately associated with death, shrines to Chauntea are not uncommon in these agricultural communities. Although Rosemary Bowers and Garrod Smith are those most talked about in regards to the election as Rosemary's care for their drained the few veterans who back Dearn Crockern at local taverns no longer have their claims scoffed at, and he may be replacing Ruhm Hills as the secondary candidate for many here.
Now, the Government of Keltane has released the exact numbers for the first round of voting that settled in with the candidates we announced in our last issue!

* Sarah Miller: 16%
* Garrod Smith: 13%
* Ruhm Hills: 13%
* Daern Crocker: 11%
* Rubio Lehron: 11%
* Kai Sarune: 10%
* Rosemary Bowers: 10%
* Dropped Candidates: 16%

With Keltane's voting system, there will be several rounds of voting where the lowest candidates are dropped and a new round of voting is announced. Some candidates may choose to drop prior to voting for personal concerns or as a compromise with another candidate to guarantee some form of support for their goals. Stay tuned with The Remnant Oracle for further updates!
***BREAKING NEWS: THE CANDIDATES FOR KELTANE’S ELECTION SOLIDIFY!***
Citizens of Remnant, we bring you the latest coverage of the elections taking place in Ageria, Keltane's capital. The time provided by law to register as a candidate has officially come to a close and we have confirmation on the candidate pool for the election.
Sarah Miller, the previous occupant of the office of Mayor of Ageria and de facto ruler of Keltane, is running for her third consecutive term. Ser Miller is a 72-year-old human knight of the church of Kelemvor and is expected to count with their backing. She claims to stand for tradition, self-reliance and an independent Keltane.
Ruhm Hills. The venerable roaming cleric from the eastern villages has a considerable store of wisdom to offer, and has made a bold entrance as a voice for the followers of Lathander and Chauntea, significant minorities in Keltane who are often suppressed or ignored by a government with such close ties to the church of Kelemvor. Nearing 63 and still hale, the half-orc has made a strong commitment to religious equality and representation for other minority groups as well, despite accusations from her detractors that her focus is only on those groups she has a connection with.
Rosemary Bowers. A prominent scholar and professor from Keltane's Cairn University, this human has built quite a reputation for her age (only 38!) and is now asking for the resources and support of all Keltane in a campaign of government sponsored research into the Warp's effects. Rallying around the goal of a solution to the ever present undead menace and a healthy recovery of the drained western farmlands, she is a beacon of hope to those once despairing of an end to the cycle. A national history without a respite from the ghastly hordes however, makes her ambitious plan seem quite the long shot
Kai Sarune. This humble wizard has entered the court of public opinion to champion renewed communal support for all parts of Keltane, from the farthest farmstead to the cities crammed with citizens. Challenging the apathy of the established elite, an otherwise unremarkable man of 46, known affectionately by the homeless in his home city of Haleth as "the Soup Mage", has stunned by holding rallies at shelters and orphanages and turning over all donations to those much strained institutions.  Nonetheless, many question how long such an unprecedented campaign can last.
Garrod Smith is the youngest candidate for the election, at only 27 years old, and has proven quite the firebrand in both speech and action. The orc farmer has been reaching out to nearby nations in an attempt to expand Keltane's trade, from the nearby Sylair and Teyrna, to Varrasham and Fyris across the Warped Lands, and even sending word to Remnant itself for support. Smith's platform seems to oppose Ser Miller's entirely; advocating for international trade and a public education system with no religious bias, which has proven quite the polarizing stance.
Daern Crocken. Appearing as the hardline candidate, this 42 year old human cavalry officer is a decorated veteran. The popular war hero is campaigning hard for expanding Keltane's land and influence through military, diplomatic, and economic means. His followers claim he is a tactical and strategic genius, pointing to a mind as sharp as a blade and a history of swiftly adapting to new information and enemy strategies. The biggest hiccup in his campaign is the desire to put a restricting limit on magic, as it has influence with how things are going in The Warp Lands.
Rubio Lehron. Rekindling faith in reasoned discourse in politics, this law mage served Keltane for over a decade before moving to change the system rather than serve it. The fire genasi has been a spark of calm in this campaign, carefully and respectfully addressing the needs of his supporters, concerns of his critics, and causes of his competitors as he built a platform of compromise and steady systemic change. However, can a compromise candidate gain enough support to make it to the next round?
With Keltane facing renewed pressures from the undead hordes, and new challenges rising, this election may have far reaching consequences on a potential ally. Rumors of an outreach to the Adventurer's Guild of Remnant for help may mean that a closer alliance may be forming as well! Follow The Remnant Oracle for further news!
