The story so far...
Adventure Begins (Ep. 1-2)
Like so many D&D adventures before it, our story begins with four brave-ish adventurers sitting in a tavern. Alton Meliamne, bard extraordinaire, receives a letter from an old family acquaintance, Endrith Vallivoe. The letter is a request for aid and the first lead on the whereabouts of Alton's missing parents. Probably should have mentioned that they were missing earlier...
Joining Alton on his adventure are Fulgrim Ironbeard, dwarven fighter and alcoholism enthusiast; Hunter, the mysterious elven ranger that bears no resemblance to any notable DC Comics characters; and Champion Lightspur, a tiefling paladin who is in no way working through any issues of his own by taking up a life of adventuring.
The party sets out for the town of Red Larch in the Dessarin Valley, but what dangers lurk along the way?
