[QUOTE="PsicrystalAffinity, post: 3133057, member: 30270"] [b]Le Carnival[/b] The freshly fallen snow glistens over the Ville de St. Avril. Light smoke is just beginning to rise out of the chimneys, and the first rays of the dawn sun are beginning to poke through twin peaks of the Gesteo Mountains. The village is nestled in between two of the larger mountains in the range. Soon the humans and the elves will be up, plying their respective trades to make a living. All is mostly quiet in the small hamlet of about 150, hugged warmly by the sleeping pine forest. Things lately have been picking up steam. The capital has been increasing trade between the humans and elves. This border village has become a popular rest stop for the various trade caravans. Even some of the halflings of the south have been seen. There have been strange sightings in the wood; some say the students of the Fochlucan College have become active again. Others dismiss that as a myth, and move on with their lives. Darker ghost stories of the Bleak Academy are told with whispered voices around the campfires, and in taverns. Most exciting, though, is the discovery made by the dwarves mining the mountains. The artifact was rumored to have immense power, and be very valuable. After its discovery, others were found. None now dispute the existence of the rumored race, known only as the Ancients. They were an immensely powerful race that lived hundreds of thousands of years ago. No one knows what happened to them, but since a few of their artifacts and some ruins have been found, there has been a steady flow of adventurers into the region hoping to make their fortunes. Some do, and retire happy. Most are never seen or heard from again. The most alarming rumors, however, are that a few have reported sighting a dragon, though not up close, nor face to face. The sightings have mostly been a of long flying creature seen on the horizon, after sunset. These things have been dismissed as people just seeing a bird of prey, or other large flying animal, after a few too many ale. [b]Rules[/b] [i]Races:[/i] core only, variants from MM allowed.
