Player's Timeline

Levin is born to fisherman parents in Odiso.

The tabaxi Vhir, a draconologist from the eastern continent of Sirazu, arrives in Westpoint. He prepares for his mission in the region as a traveling researcher for the Clearsight College of Túculao.

The party regrouped at the house of Daran Edermath for a meal and then decided to go confront the last remaining Redbrands at their usual hangout: the Drunken Giant taphouse. The forewarned ruffians defeated and kidnapped them, bringing them to a clearing in the woods where the wizard Glasstaf waited.

While traveling the trail east of Caeldun, the party was ambushed by eight goblins and fought for their lives, killing four goblins and routing the rest. Thax's tactics during the fight caused a forest fire which they had to flee, backtracking and getting caught in a heavy storm.

Althea tries advanced magic on the card she found earlier that evening and suffers a magical accident. The Vizier card is discovered by Myalo and now shows an image of Althea. Convinced it is too dangerous to keep, Thax nearly drowns in the well of the tower while trying to hide the card.   Almena Kost escapes in the early hours of the morning.

Distraught and down two allies, Levin, Myalo and Thax return to Caeldun and inform Sildar Hallwinter of their experiences in the wilderness. Myalo and Thax still keep the fate of Althea to themselves.

Levin, Myalo and Thax leave Caeldun and head west to Thundertree, where they hope to find the druid Reidoth and gain access to his knowledge of the region. At dusk they spot a frost giant on the spurs of the Daudrvell.

After finding Mirna Dendrar's necklace the trio continues exploring and Thax is suddenly grabbed while investigating a boarded up house. A short battle ensues with the black-cloaked individuals inside, escalated when a third party arrives in the form of Vhir rushing in and displaying his martial prowess. With Thax held hostage a brief negotiation is called by the leader of the cloaked strangers.
The party is not interested in talking to the dragon with them and all three factions go their separate ways again.

The group returns to Caeldun and finds its people changed. Nasty rumours about them have spread and a part of the population no longer trusts them. Sildar Halwinter speaks of hunters found dead and asks the party if they could go gather intelligence on the orc's movement and numbers, but warns that they should prepare first.

The group convenes after a new mysterious note appears in the hayloft where Levin and Thax are sleeping. Thinking Charlie Dillon is the most likely sender, Althea talks to him late that night at the bar. A converstion of subtleties and subtext ensues, and Charlie acts strangely when Althea tells him what really happened when she did not come back last time. In the end, neither fully trusts the other anymore.

While leaving Caeldun the party meets and is given a blessing by Sister Garaele, cleric of Chauntea. She asks them to visited the banshee Agatha, who would not appear for her, and ask a question.
  Charlie speaks alone with Althea and openly shows that he is more than an average innkeeper when he warns her very strongly about the Vizier card - which according to him comes from a Deck of Many Things.

Autumnreaper Mirani Longstone Glumluner Hesnoa Dolrabars makes contact with Myalo in person. They exchange information and agree to meet at the next Ilduglisten in the Darkwood.

While scouting the castle and its surroundings the party meet Rurana Pennrich, dwarven paladin of Moradin whose clan once built Penntor and gave Penndaire its name. A cautious alliance is made.

Exhausted, the party spends the rest of the day and night at Penntor castle. During the night Vhir sneaks off to unknown business for a while. Around midnight, Rurana goes to investigate a sound and is attacked by a returning warband of hobgoblins. These are swiftly dealt with after the rest of the party wakes up. Awake, they decide to free the owlbear they discovered earlier and discover a chest with treasure in the tower that held the beast.

Levin finds an unconscious Thax, hidden in one of the ruins. They discover the assasin was promised 400 gp to deliver Thax alive to the 'Old Man'. The party is not very cooperative when Sildar arrives to investigate and unsuccesfully tries to hide this information. Seeing how he broke his oath by impeding a judicial investigation, Sildar revokes Levin's membership of the Crownshields.   Thax is then brought to the townhal and locked in a cell while Sildar investigates the crimescene. When he returns, Sildar repeats his question whether Thax has any idea why this attack occured. More truthfull this time, Thax shares some of his viewpoint. Sildar decides that any blame which falls upon Thax is outside of his jurisdiction, returns the recovered Bottling Flask to him and tells him to get it out of Caeldun before more trouble follows it.

The party wakes to find Althea having made a desicion. With the warning that others are looking for her and her company attracts too much attention, she will leave the party to go looking for answers and divert attention from the Vizier card, which she leaves in Myalo's care.   After this goodbye, the party try to talk with Sildar about the danger that Malevasurrfel still poses. He advocates to let sleeping dragons lie and wait for the support of Markgraaf Baron Silene Martes. In a private conversation, he gives Levin a final chance to prove himself as a Crownsguard a renew Sildar's faith in him.

Vhir decides to react to Halia Thornton's reminders of their deal and meets her in one of the ruins. He shares the basic information on Penntor Castle, but she notices he is holding back. Giving him only a part of the information he requested, she convinces him to share all he knows in exchange for the full document.

Travelling to Girin-Ubgrûr with haste, the party encountered and fought a hill giant in the foothills of the Daudrvell. While resting afterwards, they also caught sight of a red and white dragon fighting in the sky several miles to the east. This battle was cut short when from the mountains below them a much larger white dragon leapt into the sky, killing the smaller white dragon in one blow and immediately causing the red one to retreat. Those of the party with some knowledge of dragons immediately recognised this gargantuan dragon to be Uxingerinc, the Austere Hunger.
Not wanting to linger, they quickly continued on and entered the mine of Girin-Ubgrûr.

The Black Spider used a döppelganger ally who posed as Nundro Rockseeker in an attempt to trick the party. Thax however was planning to break their deal as well, and Stix realised something was not what it seemed when the 'dwarf' came forward for the exchange. The drow and his ally managed to wrest the symbol from Thax and flee, setting ghouls on the party when it gave chase. These undead nearly proved fatal, and the group was forced to retreat, first to a storage room and a couple of hours later to the entrance, where they were once again accosted, this time by bugbears which were guarding the exit. The party managed to gain a secure position and settled down for a tense sleep, trying to regain their strength.
