[QUOTE="Gilladian, post: 6024525, member: 2093"] Connecting my current campaign to Vanhark: My PCs are traveling here because two of the PCs came from this kingdom. They traveled all the way to Brindenford, in Miraboria, thousands of miles from their homeland, tracing a man named Azaserah, known as the Red Saint. Azaserah was a cleric/wizard of great power; he had done great deeds in his homeland already when summoned to go north to assist the Emperor in putting down a rival. He did so, had adventures and left his mark there, but was then called back south because of a terrible danger in Vanhark. He returned, and essentially vanished. He was given a large fleet of ships to command, to defeat a huge uprising of pirates that were terrorizing the seas off Vanhark and other nearby lands. The Saint's fleet sailed out of the harbor, there was a terrific battle at sea, most of the pirates were defeated, Azaserah's ship and several others sailed after the pirate leader's vessel, and they all vanished. So now, when the pirates are becoming a serious problem again, the PCs (Valkrist and Gunter) were sent north as junior members of a group that was researching the history of the Saint. Legends had become so distorted that scholars sometimes doubted the Saint had ever come back from the North, or thought that perhaps after defeating the pirates he had returned North. Val and her companions have discovered clear evidence that the Saint did indeed return south to fight the pirates, six hundred years ago. So, now I need to decide HOW the people (the royal family) who sent the expedition north will react to their news. And what the PCs will be given as a reception, and whether it will lead to further adventure. And of what sort... [/QUOTE]
