I started a new Dragon Warriors game, set as I describe it “North of Fenring.” This a squashed little bit of the map between Fenring Forest and the Pagan mountains with no canonical settlements or the like. An area of blank space ripe for some low stakes adventure with a group of typical DW player characters:
Botwulf, a knight. He might have suffered leprosy, amongst other ailments, he doesn’t have the best stats.
Gwenneth-May, an assassin. Trained by her father and he own curious nature.
Drakke, a hunter. Bombastic and cocksure.
They started off invited to a friend’s wedding in the tiny settlement of Crowborough but arrived to find a funeral might be more appropriate.
Sir Caeron, the local lord had died of a mysterious illness and apparently his hand had subsequently been severed. Meanwhile the mercenaries he hired to serve as men at arms were lording it up over the local peasantry and generally being unpleasant. Their leader, Grigget, pressing a suit of marriage against Ava, Sir Caeron’s betrothed.
Our heroes set about getting into fights with Grigget’s men, some of which they won; trying to find the missing priest (who may have married Sir Caeron and Ava in secret,) meeting Green Jenny in her lonely cabin; that sort of thing.
Good times.
