[OOC] - Discussion for Kingmaker game

We can certainly return to Oleg's to facilitate the arrival of new recruits.

I told Ruarc not to the radishes...

How about a teleport ritual gone awry? Perhaps the apprentice (remember we are low level) wizard's master was supposedly sending him somewhere else, but sensed the great potential power in her apprentice and took the opportunity to send him far away into the Stolen Lands so as not to be a threat. Powerful people have been preemptive about potential threats since before Laius ordered the execution of Oedipus.

That's an option, teleporting magic is notoriously dangerous in the Shifting Seas also.

PS I've heard back from both FourMonos and JoeNotCharles and they're both in. So we'll have three new party members (the two newcomers + Ezmerelda's replacement PC) and the departure of Ruarc and Ezzy.

 

[Shayuri]

What characters are the two newcomers playing? Perhaps we can link backgrounds to some extent.

Oh wait, I see...Warden and Barbarian. But are they natives? From off-island? Perhaps I hired them as guides...

Here's Ironheart\s sheet. He is not from this land.

Hello! Can't wait to start playing with you.

So as someone who's going to be joining halfway through, what background should I read? My character won't know most of the details of what's happened already, so I don't think I should read the entire thread, but I would want the basic background (like where you all are, I think).

The obvious way to have Ironheart join you is to have him stumble into the Feywild again, and then stumble out somewhere else. But that's a bit generic, hopefully we can come up with something more tailored to the group.
