Background
Play starts in the Keep of Bridgeford, on the Brycheiniog / Elfael border.
Ifan the Black, Bandit with a Bounty on his head
Wanted for banditry, slaughter, and crimes against the gods.
Ifan is new to the area, increasingly infamous.
Presto knows of a magical treasure, defended by an unnatural threat.
Rumors of the undead coming from the hills to the west. (“West” is western side of Cantref Elfael)
Undead are known to fear the sun. Some may lair underground, some may lair in dense wilderness.
Tristan recovers in the keep, while Lofer gets reinforcements in the form of Preto and Elvira. Hey gives the directions of the bandit camp to Elvira and scouts ahead. Unfortunately, Elvira gets a bit turned around in the woods, and barges into the bandit camp before she’s expecting it, with Presto and Lofer struggling to catch up.
Play
Third Day of the Spring Season (Full Moon +2), Year 2375 of the Imperial Calendar.
Tristan’s performance for the tavern owner was disappointing.
They party have all been banned from one of two taverns in the village of Bridgeford.
