Jack Harrison and Bavak

[nerdytenor]

Hey guys. Thought we could briefly discuss how to work Jack and Bavak into the plot for Baradur's end.

Here's my first rough idea (rough enough so you can fit it to suit your characters).

Both of you independently discovered the mysterious crop blight at the edge of your respective territories and encountered each other when gathering specimens. Joining forces, you ventured closer to the source, whereupon you encountered a tribe of primitive (but powerful) lizard men. Though lacking in verbal communication, you quickly established that you had a common foe - the lizardmen took you on a couple of raids, revealing some conspiritors in a strange plot to spread disease and destruction throughout the land.

You would encounter the other four adventurer's when they happen upon a band of these lizard-folk.

Thoughts?

Other ideas?

Sounds good to me. A shaman would surely react to such a threat and I always liked lizardfolk. Shame they are not playable (yet...).

Sounds good as well. Jack would go along to protect them (and WD's PC). He has fought in the name of his god for far too long and would've tried to escape into the countryside, unfortunately, fate seems to have different plans for him. While not the most knowledgable about the workings of the natural world, the small community asked him for aid them to get rid of the blight. Jack agreed, being a helpful sort, and his own crops were similarly affected. Jack long since left behind his weapons, in fact, they lay rusted and rotting at the end of the battle in which he took more lives that he cares to remember. Jack still sees their faces in his nightmares as the life fades from their eyes.

He can have met up with Bavak and the dynamic duo runs across the lizardfolk, not initially attacking them because Jack's not the violent sort, and Bavak understood that there was something off about the colouring of their scales. The blight seemed to be affecting them as well.
