[QUOTE="Lylandra, post: 6914979, member: 6816692"] Hey folks, since my original thread got deleted I will continue with my DM experiences in adventure #2 and start where we left off. For those interested in my campaign: we're currently at the Battle of Gallo's Fend in #4, but since I don't have that much time, my recaps are lagging behind. My party did a great job in nearly crashing adventure #3 and managed to avoid several "unavoidable" NPC deaths, like Laurabec's. I have a feeling that they will see through Pilus' schemes in #5 too quickly (they did find Lee suspicious from the beginning), so I might try to play him a bit more subtle. Those of you who can read German, here's a link to our wiki (which features recaps from Tinuviel's player's PoV which are up to date) [URL]https://burning-sky-1.obsidianportal.com/wikis/home-page[/URL] My two remaining player characters are: [B]Cuin'halar Shelenbîl[/B], a young Taranesti refugee who survived the Genocide by fleeing to Gate Pass with his father, a former General of the Taranesti. He's a womanizing, handsome, always in-style barber who's energetic, kind-hearted and upbeat as long as he is not confronted with aspects of his tragic past. He still clings to visions of his mother who was a Syllith, a Taranesti High Mage and student of Syana. He's a Magus/Swashbuckler (Gestalt) [B]Tinuviel ar Shahalesti[/B], the orphaned son of a lesser noble Shahalesti family (branch of Shaaladel's deceased wife) who lived in exile in Gate Pass after disagreeing with Shaaladel's politics. His partents died as Resistance fighters during the Ragesian occupation and Cuin'halar's father has been looking after the boy since then. He's a bit more broody than his foster brother, but still enjoys the lighter sides of life. He's a psion/rogue and has ties to the thieves guild. He's also possessed by the Trillith Empathy who joined him when he was a child. Now for a short recap of the already told, but lost events: Both "brothers" started out as wannabe-heroes who reveled in the stories of Gate Pass' "heroic" resistance fighters whom they tried to emulate by catching bad guys and handing them over to the officials (yeah, like Rantle). They studied both at Gabal's school, but Tinuviel's magic was not really that compatible with Gabal's so the two of them didn't really get along.
