Hello everyone! I'm looking to help a pal with introducing their character. I have a few ideas of where the plot may go, but I'd love to open it up to some folks who can help bring this story together.
Objective 1: Yisa gets sword to new character
Objective 2: We fight the onslaught of foes (with chance of losing the castle to them until a later time)
Objective 3: Profit! .. In Friendship!... or at least established relationships for the future!
Objective 4: Decisons
(The more I think on it, the more I would like to break this into two threads to start, with perhaps a few people each. It does not have to be many people, and there can even be characters who die off or travel away. The 1st group would be those of the lost, dying kingdom. The second would be a group of people who travel from the Tundra, south. Some have already split off to Niahi Woods/Western La'marri, and there is a group heading towards Connlaoth. I will base it off my plot partner and interest!)This story takes place in the Sionad Tundra closer to the Kilanthro Mountains that are kind of close to the Connlaoth boarder Kingdom. The idea is that this is a lost area - perhaps they are tied to the Fell, but not near them in location, I believe. It likely has been around just as long, or close to it. The population is dwindling due to attacks. Grave digging is certainly a trade at this point.
This lost place is protected by dormant magic. There is no way to just walk up to it from most directions, except one that lines the through the mountains. Raiders from the mountains know this path well, by now. They are pleased to have a picking of a location that has known peace and solitude for generations. There were few fighters decades ago, however since the raiders found the path, it's been a requirement to learn how to defend themselves. There is something about the castle that makes the Raiders not want it for their own - or perhaps a strong warrior who comes out and makes them flee.
As this is dormant magic - or rather, something that only can be sensed when it is passed through by magic. (This is how Yisa and party will pass cause magic sword delivery ftw!)
That said, the following are a list of folks we
could have. We will likely start with just a few folks. If it has begun, just PM me (or the New Character's player).

There is an NPC band of people I'll control unless someone else wants to. Idealistically there will only be only 4-6 people in the final post. I'll try to keep the story progressing at least once per week if replies slow, this way no matter what, we get to keep moving forward with who we have. If there are problems, please let me know. I will send PM's and emails if I need jist of what is going on before moving the post along.
I'm in the SotE Discord chat also, so feel free to ping me with questions. I'm a slow poster, but I will get up one a day at the least. I encourage people to continue between and around my posts, so please,
do not let me slow you down. If there is something that is important, I'll post it here.
Thank you to all who have read the spiel. If you are interested, please let me know here or in a PM on the site or via Discord.
I look forward to building this story with you!
