[D&D3.5] Paths of Legend: The Azgundi Tournaments (OOC)

[crazy_monkey1956]

Most of Azgund's Swashbucklers now function as the elite guard for most of Azgund's current lords, and have rather ostentatious uniforms (complete with plumed hats). There are also quite a few independent Swashbucklers as well and the Duelists are willing to train members of other races and nations, though there haven't been too many applicants outside of Azgund yet.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Here is what i am thinking;
Human Azgund Swashbuckler, member of the (fill in the blank) guard? and What is the possibility of having heard of the shadow knight ? perhaps he is part of an elite force within the elite guard that is charged with hunting down slavers and smugglers of peoples?

 

[Arkhandus]

Thanks for the info, crazymonkey. ^_^

Alaric's certain to be thinking at Entan's proposal 'That old geezer is always making me his errand-boy, and now he wants me to do construction and teaching too? Didn't I go out traveling to get away from this?' But of course, he'll take the cheapskate route and accept the offer to save some of his gold from the Adventurer's Guild.

As for the level/GP: we're PCs from the previous adventure in Paths of Legend, and just barely reached 3rd-level and some reward for our efforts by the end of that adventure. Whatever advantage we may have isn't very significant, mostly just a few HP and a really cheap magic item or a few potions/scrolls.

Alaric will be posted shortly, just calculating his costs for scrollmaking, spell scribing, and alchemy work. Altogether it'd only take him a few days or few weeks.

Scott DeWar, the shadow knights are an organization founded by "The" Shadow Knight. The shadow knights operate in secret and have branches throughout Azgund, including ties with the Adventurer's Guild. They could certainly have infiltrated the swashbuckler elite guards of the various lords.

Arkhandus, let me know if Alaric plans on joining the Arcane Order.

There's about two dozen different lords in Azgund, not all of which are fully detailed. You can feel free to come up with minor details for your character's background. Alternately, from a story perspective, Anovia and Sisan are both going to have big events coming up during the tournament, so being a swashbuckler from one of those provinces would involve your character in the story in a more direct fashion.

How's this:

House Anovia has been politcally tricked by opponants of the shadow Knight into seeming guilty of neferious activities. A surface check was called upon sometime ago was made by the Shadow Knights and Renaldo was recruited to "observe and report of any illeagle activities." As he has seen none thus far, and the hand of the lord and lady of the house has been called to the tournanment, Renaldo's handler has given the directive to find who would oppose the house, and why.

 

[crazy_monkey1956]

Looks good. So, Rennaldo is affiliated with the shadow knights? Is he also competing in the tournament?

if his lord wills it, he will.

Edit: is there a cost for entering?

 

[crazy_monkey1956]

All entrants must be citizens of Azgund, either by being born there or by being members of the Adventurer's Guild (which has a 50 gold piece entry fee or a successful pre-entrance guild mission).
