The Ferocious FiveA quintet of sword-wielding Thunderlans that evince all the stereotypical behaviors Cormyreans ascribe to the people of Thunderstone, in eastern Cormyr. The four men and one woman that comprise the Five hunt from the saddle, brew ales made from grains grown on their own farms, find mates for the night among the local populace, and share with each other their homemade remedies for hangovers.  The Five have ridden deep into the Hullack, navigated the treacherous pass to either side of the Thunderflow and discovered at least one long-abandoned keep belonging to the all but forgotten Drauthglas noble family. ("Longest gone and least remembered," as the saying goes in Thunderstone.) They have recovered coins enough to see them all safely through the next several winters, but their lust for adventure has yet to be sated despite their most recent brush with death. (By rights the Ferocious Five should all be dead, their corpses coughed up and spat out as owlbear pellets. They owe their lives to another band of adventurers—The Chase—that slew the owlbears threatening to devour the Ferocious Five.) 8. The ChaseA band of Ranger Sorcerers—mostly half elves—from Deepingdale. Swift attackers that don’t battle face to face. The Chase move in like silent shadows, slice or stab their foes, then flit away on the ground and through the trees. Experience has taught the members of the Chase how to blend their magic with their fighting tactics with deadly effect. There is no love lost between the Chase and the Dragon of The Bloodhorn; all have lost family to the dragon’s unpredictable rampages. The Chase have found work escorting caravans into and out of Cormyr. Their route follows the East Way through the Thunder Peaks and Hullack Forest as far as Masoner’s Bridge. They journey south and east through the Hullack to the Thunderflow, hunting for pleasure and to feed themselves, then take a barge across the Thunderflow to Hultail where they sell meat and pelts from their kills along with monster parts sought after by local alchemists and mages from any creatures they encountered. After a short stay, the adventurers find another caravan headed into the mountains on the Thunder Way. The Chase turn north after crossing through the Thunder Peaks, and journey onward through Archendale to their homes in Deepingdale. One member of the Chase is rumored to be a priest. (This rumor is true: The Half-Elf Maharanthalas is both a Luckpriest of Tymora and an accomplished Ranger.)</blockquote>
