Tabletop RPG |
Session 1: The humanoids of the Pomarj have assembled an army of unheard of proportions under the charismatic Turrosh Mak. Promising a return of the lands lost during the Hateful Wars, Mak is leading his army north into the lands held by the city-state of Fax. Sitting astride the Galstone River, the town of Good Ford provides an integral link in the chain of forts which protect those lands. As a member of the elite Red Guard, it is your task to cross the river and scout out the strength and disposition of Mak's army. Will you sneak into the camps of the orcs and listen in on the war councils? Or will you brazenly snatch one of the orc generals from his tent and drag him back to Good Ford for interrogation? It is up to you.

Session 2: The tidings are bad. Not only does Mak have enough troops to build a bridge of bodies across the Galstone, but he has a cadre of renegade humans who have been teaching the orcs arcane magics and improving their fighting skills. Lord Merrond has ordered that the Red Guard must exterminate these renegades at all costs. Possibly more importantly, find out where they are coming from and why they have chosen to help the orcs. Word has also come down that the elves of Celene have crossed the border and are hunting down orcish war parties. If possible, locate one of these elven bands and learn why they have entered human lands.

Earthdawn

If the aftermath of Barsaive at War, Throal has been having a difficult time getting their regular patrols and peacekeeping forces back on track. With an excess of battle-weary warriors, the returning army has had to call on volunteers from its forces, or wandering adventurers that can be found and are trustworthy enough to take up the duty. These Peace Patrols are sent out to the far flung villages and townships of Throal, to make sure that everything's in order within the borders of Throal. Unfortunately for this particular Peace Patrol, all is not well with the track they've been assigned -- between uppity creatures who think they own the roadways to possible Horror infestations; they will probably have their hands full. |
