Callstall

**Callstall** is the capital of the Kingdom of Callstall and home to the Ever Tree.

## Description

Callstall is located in the southwest of Takka Hun, in the very centre of the Kingdom of Callstall in order to maintain even distance with its frontiers. Just south of it lie the rivalling towns Blueton and Redton, and even further south is the town of Till. It is not near the coast, and most trade happens along the network of roads leading in and out of the city. The road leading east to Magicnun is known to be frequented by Terrafog, confusing travellers and deterring trade.

The city is protected by a large intangible dome that keeps out evil forces. The dome is created by the large tree in its center. The Tree District is the area surrounding the tree, and is where many important events take place. It is higher class, with high-grade shops. Outside that lies the Cobble District, which is poorer.

One common ritual is the Everfall Festival, an annual holiday that coincides with mid-autumn. It involves the King's Clash and the Everfall Ball, among other festivites.

## History

### Postbellum

Recently, there was an attack on the Ever Tree perpetrated by the War Wicks, allegedly with the help of Sir Galian Pridestone.

Pauldron of Paratiritis

The **Pauldron of Paratiritis** is an ancient Draconic shoulder plate.

## History

The pauldron has been identified as being older than Reepa itself. It may have been created by Paratiritis, who lends his name to the item, but it is possible that it was created by someone else and he is simply the most famous bearer.

At some point, it came into the possession of Del & Bell, who offered it as a prize for Skoria, who chose the life of their companion over it. After the twins were defeated, Skoria found the Pauldron in the wreckage of their tent.

Skoria was able to identify it as being of Draconic origins, but required help to identify it further. They first sought aid from Boris, a librarian at the Callstall Library, who redirected them to the wizard of the party, Leor, who cast Identify and discovered its properties. Later, Skoria had a dream sequence in which they were Paratiritis, in which the Pauldron appeared.

Grey Guard

The **Grey Guard** is an intelligence organisation based in Magicnun.

## Description

The Grey Guard is surrounded by mystery. Their symbol is the skull of some sort of bird. They hold sway in politics. Before joining the order, it seems that one must need die and be resurrected. As penance, they must at times flagellate themselves.

Their patron is the Blackrazor, who occasionally demands souls of people, both innocent and guilty. It is unknown if the Black Razor's intentions and the Grey Guard's intentions always align.

Szybki

**Szybki** is a Rabbitfolk rogue and postal worker arrested for mail fraud.

## Biography

The circumstances of Szybki's birth are little known. He may be from the Wild Bastion, as almost all the Beastfolk we have seen are. There is no known rabbit tribe, but there is known to be other races than the four named tribes.

Szybki was arrested for mail fraud. He was imprisoned in the Pit, which was seen as an overreaction compared to the prison's other inmates. In 4549 PF, he and six other inmates escaped from the prison. He joined The Watchers. Twenty years later his party participated in a game show set in the Mirror Dimension. Szybki was the second chosen for the game Trust or Forsake, choosing to Trust while his counterpart Nym Zylleth chose Forsake. After the Watchers and the Red Rites agreed to work together, Skoria asked Szybki how someone like him could possibly have ended up in the Pit.

## Meta

The name Szybki is Polish for "quick".

The only Red Rites member who has conversed with Szybki is Skoria, who is played by Bryn, who initially played Szybki.
Iris Raine

**Iris Raine** is the princess of Callstall.

## Biography

Iris was born to King Raine and Queen Raine. She appears to be in her 20s, but as a half-elf it is hard to ascertain her actual age. In 4569 PF, she was given the responsibility of awarding the victors of the King's Clash, the Red Rites, with their medals at the Everfall Ball. While doing so, she was impaled by Gale Pridestone. After the Red Rites defeated Gale, her body was taken elsewhere to be resurrected. She was next seen alive and well at the trial of Silverbreak v. Solace, attending via Zoom Stone.

## Relationships

### Red Rites

* Babo
Babo seemed to show feelings for Iris.

### Personal

* Father
* Mother
* Gale
It is known that Gale and King Raine were working together, so it is possible that the king orchestrated his daughter's death. This may have led to negative relations between the two.

The most recent heard of him was a blip located south-west of Callstall.
Cocktails and Cordyceps

Transcript

**Cocktails and Cordyceps** is the nineteenth episode of the Red Rites campaign. It is the second episode of the Greygrass Arc.

## Synopsis

The Red Rites return to The Molten Duck Duck Goose to find that Crackle has renovated the upper level. Leor dreams about meeting Death. Skoria, wishing for a day off after a hectic couple of months, spends some time alone with Kane Solace while the rest of the party visits the Callstall Library. After Skoria and Kane reunite with the rest of the Red Rites, Leor uses Identify to find the origins of the Pauldron of Paratiritis. Nym Zylleth runs off, and Kane chases her down. She steals a mushroom from the crime scene, which Leor also identifies. After establishing a connection between the attacks and Valka Antica, Leor visits the Callstall Palace in order to deliver a message to Draven. Yossel Ironborn is given access to Kingsnet and has a "dream" about a group called The Ascent. Skoria has a dream in which they are Paratiritis, encountering a hooded figure. The next morning, the Red Rites go to the Callstall Palace and Draven informs them all that she thinks Valka is in their custody. They go in without Nym, for safety, and discover that the person who they thought was Valka is actually Violet Zylleth, Nym's sister. Nym and Skoria return to the Molten Goose and have a long private conversation about Nym's situation. Afterwards, they all go to a bar called The Shitkicker and get drunk. The next morning, they meet with Violet and ask her about the time that's past since they last saw each other. They are attacked by Rook and Spruce, who are under Valka's control and have crystalline avatars of a bear and lion, respectively.

Violet Zylleth

"*A lonely, lonely child, really. Useless in her ability to do Druid magic. She wanted to prove herself, but to prove herself, she simply wanted to be forgotten. By her whole family. Including you.*"
—Pistol to Nym Zylleth[src]
**Violet Zylleth** is Wood Elven barbarian.

## Meta

Violet's name probably derives from the flower of the same name. She is the only person in her family not named after a tree, which might refer to her being a pariah to her family, and the fact that she is not a Druid like the rest of them (it might also be because she was not named by the same person as the rest of the Zylleths and the pattern may not have been clear). In the Victorian language of flowers, violets are a symbol of modesty, which might refer to Violet's lack of self-confidence. It might also be a pun on "violent", as she is a barbarian. Zylleth seems to be a generic fantasy name.
Freddy Bearington

**Freddy Bearington**, also known as the **Honey-King**, is a Bearfolk and chief of the Bear Tribe.

## Description

### Personality

He is described by Kane Solace as a bit of an idiot, but really nice.

## Biography

Freddy's role in the Hundred Year War is unknown, but it is assumed that he participated.

It is unclear whether the Honey-King is the general title for a chief of the Bear Tribe, or if it is a specific nickname for him. Kane Solace secretly told Nym Zylleth to earn the respect of the Honey-King.

It takes place between twenty and fifty years prior to the Red Rites campaign, somewhere between 4549 PF. This campaign focuses on the escape of seven convicts from the prison known as the Pit.

Titan of Frostford

The **Titan of Frostford** is a Titan who resides in Frostford.

## Biography

It is not known if it originated in Frostford. It is contained in the ice, so it may have been imprisoned. It presumably participated in the War of Fragmentation. It was once worshipped by Mind Flayers but all except Cornifer were killed because they fell out of faith.

Recently, it was cloned in order to create the Puppeteer. Fang had visited it in order to study information for Malus Solace.

A fight between the Red Rites and the Bone Queen took place above its mouth. The Bone Queen may have intended to sacrifice Kane Solace to the Titan.
Mirror Sword

The **Mirror Sword** is a magical sword that is split in half in the middle.

## History

According to The Watchers, the sword was kept in the Pit until they escaped and another inmate took it out with them. It's unknown when it was broken. Del and Bell claim to have the other half, but the wording seemed to imply that someone other than the twins stole the sword. The next twenty years are unaccounted for, but it was rediscovered in 4569 PF by Babo. By this time, it was broken in two. It was located in the mines near Silverbreak. This might imply a connection with one of the people involved in the human trafficking, such as Lee Herming or Gale Pridestone.
Lee Herming

## Stats

**Lee Herming** is a changeling and the sheriff of Silverbreak.

## Description

### Appearance

Although Lee can take the form of anyone, their standard form has pale grey skin, blank eyes and white hair. They have two earrings in their left ear.

### Personality

Lee has a keen understanding of how people think and act, which allows them to accurately impersonate whoever they wish. It also makes them quite persuasive, and as such they act as the prosecuting attorney in certain trials of state.

They demonstrate some xenophobia, probably due to their Silverbreak upbringing, especially towards Wolffolk.

## Biography

### Captain of the Guards

At some point, Lee began working with Boarwood and Galian Pridestone to traffic lycanthropes and other disenfranchised citizens to a cave network near Silverbeak.

Lee was present upon the arrival of Kane Solace to be tried at the court of Silverbeak. They fled the scene of Kane's execution with several prisoners, leading the Red Rites to the cave network. Augmenting themself with a green crystal in their possession, Leor burned Lee to death.

## Meta

Lee was likely chosen for its status as a common unisex name. As well as this, it goes hand-in-hand with the description of Silverbreakers as "Texas racists" and Lee's connection with the slave trade. Lee could be a reference to Robert E. Lee, the Confederate general during the American Civil War, or to Harper Lee, the author of To Kill A Mockingbird, a 1961 novel set in a backwards Alabama town. The villain of that book also has the middle name Lee.

Herming means "turning into a hermaphrodite", which fits incredibly well when you consider Lee's powerset.
Red Rites campaign

The **Red Rites campaign** is a Dungeons & Dragons campaign run by Eli. It began on February 5, 2022, and continues on to the present day. As of the latest revision there have been twenty-two episodes, with the twenty-third scheduled for an unknown date in the future.

## History (OOC)

The world of Takka Hun was announced on March 3, 2021, and a three-episode arc focusing on a unique cast of characters took place from April 10, 2021 until May 22, 2021. It was not brought up again until six months later, on November 21, 2021. Four people carried over from the previous campaign. Eli, the DM, and following that Quinten, Bryn and Hayden. The second wave of new recruits, most of which didn't see any playtime, consisted of Jing, Cha, Kiyo, Harry and Steph. Harry was the only survivor. On February 3, 2022, Isla was added by Hayden. Two days later was the first session. On April 11 2022, Kate and Maya were added by Bryn. On January 1 2024, Kacey was added.

Babo/Theories

## Who are Babo's parents

Babo's parents could be nobody important, but it is worth considering that there is something more to it. Here are some potential answers.

* The Magicnun royal family: Not much is known about them.
* The Crimson family: Although native to Callstall, it is possible that one impregnated a Magicnun woman which travelling. Xander, following his failure at the King's Clash, goes into exile into Frostford (I could be wrong about the reasoning for going to Frostford), so a Crimson crossing Takka Hun is not unprecedented. If, like Xander, Babo's hypothetical father failed at a King's Clash, it would contribute to Babo's struggle with failure and not being good enough. We also know that the Crimsons are naturally blonde humans, which is a genetic match for Babo. Babo also wears red, as is Crimson family tradition, but this is also easily applicable to the fact that she is a member of the Red Rites.
* Alexander: This would make Babo a quarter-elf, rather than a human. The precedent of a quarter-elf aging like a normal human has been set by Cinna, so questions of age are not relevant. Her birth, which would take place two years before Alexander escaping prison, would not be completely out of the question.

## Why was Babo abandoned as a child

The two main reasons for Babo being abandoned are either due to being illegitimate or poor. If it's the former, then the likelihood of her parents being significant are much higher. If it's poverty, then there is not much more to the theory.
Thios

**Thios** is a Dragonborn and member of the Old Council.

## Meta

Thios is Greek for "uncle", which could indicate there is a familial relationship of that nature between him and Skoria. This would also indicate that Paratiritis is Skoria's uncle or father. Skoria never mentions this relationship in explaining who Thios is, so this is unlikely. It is also possible that he is referred to as uncle out of respect for his age and status. It may also be that it derives from Greek theós, which means "god", implying he is much more powerful than previously thought. However, all other known Dragonborn aside from Paratiritis have names deriving from metals.

A stretch would be that it is short for Prometheus. First of all, "promethium" is a metal and therefore fits the tradition. Secondly, Prometheus is a Titan and this could indicate a relationship to the Titans. His brother, who in Greek mythology is Epimetheus, is partly responsible for releasing evil to the world in reference to Pandora's box.
Titan of Reepa

The **Titan of Reepa** was a horned Titan. Reepa seems to be built inside of its skull.

## Biography

It's possible that the Titan of Reepa is the object of worship of the Order of Leviathan. As a powerful, draconic creature who resides in the same area, it would make sense for them to revere it as a deity. As seen with the Titan of Frostford, it is not unlikely that the native people of an area saw the Titans as gods.

It appeared before the Red Rites along with several other Titans in order to recite the Prophecy of the Titans.
Takka Hun

**Takka Hun** is the largest continent in the world. It is made up of five independent kingdoms.

## History

All of the continents in the world were once conjoined as one, but due to the War of Fragmentation, they were split into five continents. Takka Hun was the central of these.

Kobold Rebellion

The **Kobold Rebellion** was a rebellion against the government of Reepa that took place in 4566 PF. Although the participants call themselves revolutionaries, the word "revolution" indicates an overthrow of the government, which does not appear to have happened as the Old Council is still in power.

## History

### Context

The kobolds of Reepa were kept as a slave population, toiling to provide for their Dragonborn overlords. It is unknown if they were owned privately, as individuals by individuals, or if they were publicly owned, like serfs.

Many of the revolutionaries seem to have been Dragonborn themselves, such as Atsali and Skoria. Skoria, who has described themselves as royalty, was probably directly related to the people in charge. One person significant to Skoria passed away. The rebellion lasted three months. Supplies were brought to the side of the rebels by Ruth.
Crimson Riots

The **Crimson Riots** are a faction of Callstall, formed by the Crimson Family.

## History

It is currently unknown what the status of the group is, as its leader has taken up the title of Crimson Knight and has been operating without its team. It may have been disbanded or the leadership has passed to a different member of the Crimson Family.
Malus Solace

"*My father, Malus Solace, has no weakness, but is quick to anger, for better or for worse.*"
—Kane to Skoria in a hidden message[src]

**Malus Solace**, also known as the **Big Bad Wolf**, is the Wolffolk leader of the Wolf Tribe and one of the main enemies of the Red Rites.

## Biography

He bit Cinnabar Murrey, infecting her with lycanthropy.
Crackle

**Crackle** is a Dragonborn merchant who travels across Takka Hun and other planes to sell his wares.

## Description

### Personality

Crackle has a pansexual badge in the pride image, meaning he is probably pansexual.

## Biography

He has two horses named Snap and Pop.

While in Callstall, he did some renovation on The Molten Duck Duck Goose, adding a training area, a greenhouse, a balcony and a library, as well as personalised beds for each member of the Red Rites.

## Paraphernalia

* Scimistar (formerly)
* Shivertar
* Lightning Javelin
* Dragonscale Scroll
* Rat Ring

Mrs Lovett

**Mrs Lovett** is the pet magpie of Tyber Huddson.

## Biography

Mrs Lovett was given to Tyber by his bride Cinnabar Murrey as a wedding gift.

## Meta

Her name is a reference to the character in the tale of Sweeney Todd. This is mostly a reference to the common nickname for magpie being "pies". The reason for her being a magpie is that in Ancient Roman mythology, Romulus and Remus were raised by a magpie and a wolf, which are used to indicate facets of Tyber and Cinna respectively.
Reepa

**Reepa** is a city in the north of the Kingdom of Bax Bat.

## Description

Reepa lies at the northernmost point of Takka Hun, just across the sea from the Feywild Chain. A large dragon skull is depicted on the map, but it is unknown if this is a stylistic choice by the cartographer or an actual landmark of Reepa. Reepa may be underground, as Skoria has described themself as an "underground boy", but this might also just refer to Koba York. Reepa being underground would explain the lack of a drawn city on the map, and explain the function of the dragon skull as an entrance. Cacti and mountains littering the area on the map would imply an arid climate.

There is a great inequality between the Dragonborn population, who rule as the Order of Leviathan, and the population of kobolds who act as slaves.

Since it has its own ruling class, it is unknown what its relationship to the crown of Bax Bat is, or whether it is subservient.

There is very little magic used in Reepa, except in rituals. Due to this, knowledge of the arcane is limited to its inhabitants. It is more technologically inclined, but the machinery found in Redhaven is more advanced.

## History

### Kobold Rebellion

Circa 4564 PF, several inhabitants of Reepa rose up against their oppressors in order to liberate the kobolds in what is known as the Kobold Rebellion.Not much is known about the rebellion of the kobolds except what has been told by Skoria. It is known that Skoria was a significant player in this rebellion and that its purpose was to liberate the kobolds from slavery.

Raven Queen

The **Raven Queen** is the goddess of death.

## Description

She is positively aligned, and makes sure that death is balanced. She holds the strands of fate, and when those need to be cut, the souls transfer to her plane of existence.

She is followed by some mortals, but there are also four Champions, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who ensure that the balanced is maintained.

## History

Leor investigated the Raven Queen when visiting the Callstall Library.

The Molten Duck Duck Goose

**The Molten Duck Duck Goose** is an inn in Callstall. It belongs to Duck Duck, who then sold half the shares to the Red Rites in order to take care of his immense debts.

## Description

The inn has three floors.

The third floor is the attic. This area was set aside as the Red Rites' base of operations. After it was renovated by Crackle, the attic was expanded so that it included a training area, a greenhouse, a small library. It also included personalised beds for each of the Red Rites. There is a hammock for Skoria, to reflect the sleeping conditions of the Reepi Dragonborn, and a charging port for Yossel. Crackle is known to use size distortion magic, so some might be at play here. The attic now has a balcony that leads up to the roof.

## History

Presumably, the inn was founded by Duck Duck, who it was named after. It's possible that it has been purchased and renamed, or it has been passed down a family line and ended up in Duck Duck's hands. Regardless, Duck Duck found himself in severe debt. He was unable to pay them off, and was struggling to pay them. Following the King's Clash, the Red Rites used their prize money to buy 60% of the stakes in the inn, allowing Duck Duck to cast off his debts.

The Red Rites sent the wizard of the Crimson Riots, Ralph, who had suffered burns during combat, to work for Duck Duck instead of continuing to work for the Riots. Following an attempted robbery on the path from Wood's Bounty to Magicnun, the Red Rites sent the only surviving bandit, Barry, to turn over a new leaf and work at the inn.

Duck Duck began to brand the inn as the birthplace of the Red Rites, attracting many patrons who wished to meet or battle them, including Yossel Ironborn. Some of these patrons caused damage to the inn, much to Duck Duck's annoyance.
Blackrazor

"*My master doesn't... he doesn't do stuff for shits and giggles. He's quite a serious being.*"
—Darcy Willner to Skoria[src]

The **Blackrazor** is a deity and the patron of the Grey Guard.

## Description

### Appearance

It resides inside a sword, but many versions of it exist as representations of pacts with members of the Grey Guard. It does not always appear as a sword, but for Darcy Willner, it does.

### Personality

The Blackrazor does things with purpose and clarity, and is said to be a serious being.

## History

It is possible that the Titan of Magicnun and the Blackrazor are one and the same. Both are associated with a sword, and have a local connection with the city of Magicnun. Since it is established that the Titans were revered as gods in places like Frostford, it would make sense for citizens of Magicnun to revere the Titan of Magicnun, and possibly form pacts of loyalty with it, which would be a reasonable origin for the Grey Guard. The problem with this interpretation is that the Blackrazor (the sword) is separate from the blade that is Magicnun. Binding Titans within objects is precedented, as the Titan of Frostford is trapped within mountains.

The Blackrazor is currently in the possession of Elijah. It has requested the death of four children, but it is unknown why this is. It's possible that it has the ability to see the future and knew that these children would grow to become forces that would oppose it. The Blackrazor began appearing to Skoria in their dreams.

Yuka Blight

**Yuka Blight** is a Grey Guard from Magicnun. She is currently stationed in Bax Bat.

## Biography

Yuka was born to Mr Blight and an unknown woman. She was presumably born in Magicnun. As an adult, she joined the Grey Guard and became romantically involved with fellow apprentice, Darcy Willner.

Darcy attempted to deliver letters to her at her house in Magicnun, but was told by her father that she was in Bax Bat. Later that year, when Darcy was in Bax Bat himself, she fought him in a doubles battles in The Glory Hole.

## Meta

The name Yuka is of Japanese origin and could mean "good reason". It could also mean "flower", which makes her surname, blight, which is a disease that affects plants, more ironic.
Bear Coin

The **Bear Coin** is a coin that is won through the Trial of the Bear. It allows the wielder to grow much larger. It is currently in the possession of Leor

## Description

It is a coin with the head of a bear printed on both sides. It is unknown if it can be used as payment.

## History

It is presumed that the coin was created by the elves of Wood's Bounty. Goose won it in the trial. Leor used it to carry the tired Darcy Willner and Kane Solace to bed at the Tombstone Saloon.
Ruth

**Ruth** is an Aasimar supplier based in Bax Bat.

## Biography

At one point, Ruth moved to Bax Bat and adopted Purple Worms named Tilly and Bessie.

Ruth was not involved in the Hundred Year War because it was, in her eyes, pointless, but she was happy to help out during the Kobold Rebellion. This is how she met Skoria, who, as a weapons manufacturer, had much contact with suppliers. After Skoria was exiled, Ruth gave them a place to stay.

Three years later, Skoria returned with their party, the Red Rites, again needing a place to hide. Ruth was happy to help, on the condition that they participate in the races.
M

M

**M** is a mysterious Firbolg and possibly leader of The Watchers.

## Biography

As revealed to Skoria in a dream, M led the Watchers to what is now Reepa, where he commissioned a blade from Paratiritis. This blade consumed its creator and is reckoned to have become the Blackrazor.

M sent tickets to each of the founding members of the Red Rites, inviting them to the Everfall Festival and sponsoring their enrolment in the King's Clash.

They may be the third person warned about by the Watchers, allied with Slade and Beau Samedi. It was confirmed that the first letter of their name was M.
Silverbreak Arc

The **Silverbreak Arc** was the fourth arc of the Red Rites campaign. It consisted of episodes 12 through 14.

## Episodes

1. Broken Bones and Silver Thrones (October 8, 2022)
2. Dead to Rites (October 31, 2022)

Bone Queen's Fight Pit

The **Bone Queen's Fight Pit** is a fighting ring based in Frostford and operated by the Bone Queen.

## History

In 4569 PF, the Bone Queen activated a Blight Seed, causing the fight pit to collapse. This resulted in a number of casualties.

## Known Matches

* Luke Warm vs **Leor**
* Xander Crimson vs **Skoria**
* **Cinnabar Murrey** vs Patchy
* Sally/Sally's Serpent vs **Nym Zylleth/Brimy**
Dáire Zylleth

**Dáire Zylleth** is an Wood Elven bookseller based out of Twilight Keep. He is the father of Nym Zylleth.

## Description

### Appearance

Unknown, presumably similar to Nym and Violet.

### Personality

Dáire is secretive about his past. He is traditional, as he wants his daughters to follow in the same line of druids as the rest of the Zylleth Family.

## Biography

Dáire Zylleth was born in Wood's Bounty several centuries ago. He is probably closely related to Kord Zylleth.

At one point, he met Evora Zylleth and had two children with her, Violet Zylleth and Nym Zylleth.

He left Wood's Bounty due to the onset of the Purple Curse, which was caused by his daught Violet, and fled to Twilight Keep. There, he and Evora opened a bookstore which they operate to this day.

## Relationships

* Evora
* Violet
* Nym
It is unclear how much Dáire and his wife love each other. Marriage customs among the elves are not well known, and as such it could be a romantic or a pragmatic marriage. It seems they are of the same mind in child rearing.

Violet is a Barbarian, which does not align with the Zylleth tradition of druidism, which probably alienates Dáire from his daughter. He likely does not approve of her beginning the Purple Curse and their strained relationship might be a factor in Violet triggering the curse.

Nym has not discussed their father much, but looks back on their childhood negatively, and this could possibly be attributed to Dáire's parenting. He and his wife are known to have kept information about the Purple Curse from them, and pushed Nym into the family tradition of druidism.

## Meta

The name Dáire is of Irish origin and could mean either "oak" or "wise", an apt name for the patriarch of a family of Wood Elves. Zylleth seems to be a generic fantasy name.
Papa

**Papa** is a Half-Orc smith living in Frostford. He is the owner and apparently the only worker in Papa's Forge.

## Description

### Personality

Papa likes smithing. He has a kindly demeanour and is a good hugger.

## Biography

It is unknown if Papa is a nickname derived from his paternal demeanour and relationship to Mama or if that is his birth name. It is unknown if Papa founded Papa's Forge or if he inherited it.

Sometime before 4561 PF, he met and married Mama. They had one daughter together, Sally, before getting divorced.

In 4569 PF, his forge was visited by Skoria, a fellow smith by trade, who commissioned a magical sword and worked together with him to complete it. The end result was Kane's Tooth.

## Relationships

* Mama
* Sally
* Skoria
Papa and Mama remain amiable after their divorce. The circumstances of their separation are not yet known, but it must have been relatively conflictless for their relationship to continue as normal now. They have not been seen to interact, but they share joint custody of their daughter without issue.

Papa is close to his daughter, and allows her a considerable deal of freedom for her age.

Papa and Skoria are are similar souls, both empathetic and enamoured by the art of smithing. Despite their contact with each other being short-lived, Skoria feels relaxed when in Papa's presence, and both express a desire to see each other again.

## Paraphernalia

* Kane's Tooth (formerly)
* Shivertar
Blue Båls

"*Weren't there six of you?*"
—Babo to the Blue Båls, ignorant of their grief[src]

The **Blue Båls** are an adventuring party consisting of dwarves.

## History

The Blue Båls were eliminated in the very first round of that year's King's Clash. They lost one of their members.

Three months later, they participated in a drinking competition in The Molten Duck Duck Goose for ownership of the Warforged Yossel Ironborn. They won, but due to an unwillingness to part with Yossel, a compromise was struck and the name of its leader, Hardone Hard Hardcock was written in large letters at the front of the inn.
Frostford

**Frostford** is a town in the southeast of Magicnun known for its cold temperatures and hot springs.

## Description

Frostford lies in the midst of mountains south of Wood's Bounty, close to the border with the kingdom of Silverbreak. Passing through the mountains from Magicnun is hazardous and the route is commonly done through airship.

The hot springs are very popular due to the subzero temperatures of the alpine air.

Beneath the ground lies the Frostford Titan. There is a chamber in the catacombs reserved for its mouth.

## History

A fight pit run by the Bone Queen was a popular tourist attraction, but this was destroyed during one tournament by a Blight Seed, which tragically killed many of the spectators.

The Red Rites Wiki

**Welcome to The Red Rites Wiki!**
The Red Rites are the protagonistic party of an ongoing D&D campaign that began on February 5, 2022.

After waking up together in a random field in Callstall with little memory of the night before, five misfits banded together in order to win the King's Clash. One thing led to another, and having saved a great deal of people from danger (while simultaneously having put those people in danger in the first place), the Red Rites were employed by the Crown of Callstall to escort the prince of the wolves to Silverbreak to be tried for his crimes. But things, of course, don't always go according to plan.

## Quotes

"*Didn't there used to be six of you?*"
—Babo to the Blue Båls, oblivious to the death of their sixth member.
Soul Room

"*Here, you are allowed to soul-search, per se. You each get a chance to ask about any sort of soul that exists in Takka Hun, about revealing something that you might not know about them.*"
—Bell explaining the room to the Red Rites[src]
The **Soul Room** is a magic room in the Mirror Dimension.

## Description

The room allows an individual to ask any other individual one question, open or closed. The response is guaranteed to be true, but is likely ambiguous and omits information. It is unclear whether the soul that is asked needs to be alive, but their name needs to be known. It is unclear if pseudonyms work, but it seems that the room's magic can distinguish between different individuals of the same name, and find the soul that the asker intended.

## History

When the Red Rites were given the choice, half of the party chose to enter the Soul Room. Skoria asked Atsali if he was doing alright, to which they received an affirmative response. Darcy Willner asked Galian Pridestone how he kept coming back to life, and Gale made it clear that he did not know, but he knew King Raine was behind it. Yossel Ironborn asked Leda whether he was forgiven, to which he also received an affirmative answer. Babo also asked Gale, but instead of something pertinent asked why she was not liked. Gale responded that she was not his type, hinting towards his homosexuality.

It is possible that some of The Watchers also passed through this room, which means they may have received new information.

Wild Bastion

The **Wild Bastion** is an area home to several Beastfolk tribes on Exile Island.

## Description

It's unclear how autonomous the different tribes are.

## History

There might be some link to Wood's Bounty, considering the four trials of the city's citadel are themed around the same animals as the four major tribes of the Wild Bastion.

They were a belligerent in the Hundred Year War. The region's name implies that it exists as a form of protection against attack, which may imply that they were the defending side in the Hundred Year War.

## Inhabitants

* Lion Tribe
	+ Lioness Queen
	+ Gale Pridestone (formerly; presumably)
* Wolf Tribe
	+ Malus Solace
	+ Kane Solace
* Bear Tribe
	+ Winnie the Honey-King
* Owl Tribe
	+ Owlbert
	+ Leda

It is presumed that most Beastfolk originated from the Wild Bastion, but there is no proof of this for the following.

* Szybki
* Duck Duck
Silvia Huddson

## Meta

The name Silvia is of Latin origins and means "spirit of the wood", and could refer to her mother living in the woods for several years, or as a conception of werewolves. It is also somewhat a phonetic reference to her hometown of Silverbreak. She is named after Rhea Silvia, as is her brother, and based on the Roman founding figure Remus.
Boarwood

King **Boarwood** is the monarch of Silverbreak.

## Biography

Boarwood was married at one point. With that wife, he had a daughter, and the wife also had a child that is likely not Boarwood's.

Following the attack on Silverbreak in 4534, Boarwood began a fervent anti-lycanthrope campaign, forbidding worship of Selune as well as beginning work on walls around Silverbreak made entirely of silver.
Everfall Ball

The **Everfall Ball** is presumably an annual event celebrated during the Everfall Festival.

## Description

The ball is a formal occasion, held in the Ever Tree. The victors of the King's Clash are traditionally rewarded at the ceremony.

## History

At the most recent Everfall Ball, the Attack on Callstall occurred and Princess Iris Raine was murdered.
Atsali

**Atsali** is a Dragonborn and companion of Skoria.

## Biography

Skoria used their soul-search to ask Atsali if he was OK. Atsali told Skoria he was doing well, which means he is probably alive.

Skoria has said that once a Dragonborn joins the Old Council, they grow wings. As Atsali is described as having wings, it can be presumed that he is a member of the Old Council and a high-ranking member of the Order of Leviathan.

## Meta

Like most Dragonborn, Atsali's name derives from the name of a metal in Greek. In his case, his name translates as "steel". Since steel is an alloy of carbon and iron, this could indicate that Sidero ("iron") is a parent of Atsali.
Del

**Del** is a High Elven performer and member of both the Honey's Breaths and the Dreamscape Cast.

## Description

### Personality

Unlike her sister, Del is known to be the calm and reserved one. Although she may nurture an inner anger, she is the outwardly pleased one, which is why she is represented through a comic mask. She is also quite coquettish, flirting with both Brimy and Darcy.

## Biography

According to the Watchers, Del escaped from prison at the same time that they did, in 4549 PF.

## Meta

Del means "of the" in several Romance languages, but this does not carry much meaning as a name. It is usually a shortening of other names, such as Delmer ("of the sea"), Delmas ("one who lives in isolation"), or Adelaide ("noble-natured"). As a High Elf, Adelaide makes the most sense. It forms a contrast with Babo's name, the meaning of which is outright negative, that both of her enemies have positive names.
Bell

**Bell** was a High Elven performer and member of both the Dreamscape Cast and the Honey's Breaths.

## Meta

Bell is likely derived from French "belle", meaning "beautiful". It forms a contrast with Babo's name, the meaning of which is outright negative, that both of her enemies have positive names. Her name could also be derived from the name Isabel, meaning "devoted to God", but Bell has no explicit religious inclinations. Since she is the angry twin, it may also be short for "belligerent", while means "hostile and aggressive".
Purple Curse

"*I do know that it's properties are necrotic of some kind, and linked to the god that created it. While the curse is linked to Valka currently, it might have something to do with the seed, the core that you got. If it's infected, then the Curse may stay. It's almost like a beating heart.*"
—Pistol to Nym Zylleth in the Dream Room[src]
The **Purple Curse** is a magical plague that crystallises its victims.

## History

The Purple Curse was caused by Violet Zylleth and caused a mass exodus of the elves of Wood's Bounty to Twilight Keep.

## Victims

* Kord Zylleth
* Valka Antica's husband and son
* Two

>
>

The **King's Clash** is an annual event that takes place in Callstall as part of the Everfall Festival.

## Structure

There are three rounds of the King's Clash, with one party being eliminated every round.

1. A road of trials, used to promote the values of Callstall
2. A combat against critters
3. A combat between the two remaining teams.

## History

It is known that the Crimson Riots have won multiple times. The most recent clash was won by newcomers, the Red Rites.
