The characters are starting at 3rd level and a variety of races and classes are available to them.Background - as given to playersThe Forest of the Apes is renowned for the variety of primates who make it their home. Homeland of the unseelie, trickster fey who walk the night.Legend has it that there was once a sorcerer of great power who brought the monkeys and apes to this forest. Tales say he built towers of arcane power within the depths of the forest and some of them stand to this day, with traps for the unwary and treasure for the bold. Some say this magician was a reaver elf, others a human or salamander, some even a siv or that he was a fey in the form of an ape. Whatever the truth, rumours have surfaced about a cult now active on the fringes of the forest. Fanatics trying to use the magics of the Monkey Mage for their own gain.Now a minor noble has gone missing near the forest, and an enterprising merchant is putting together an adventuring party to find him. The merchant, Vincien Coingate, is said to have longer term plans in mind, involving the group known as the Venturers of the Coin.Starting cast of PCsDeng of the Sudjai, <a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=147341" target="_blank">salamander</a> male from the Kethor Wastes, Scout 2 / Elk Totem Warrior 1Garrett Underbough, halfling male from another world, Bard 3Lukkar, goblin male from the Deeps, Scout 2 / Falcon Totem Warrior 1Lumumba, siv male from the Deepswamp, Monkey Totem Warrior 1 / Transmuter 2Lysander Casaragis, human male from Kynahar, Fighter 3Glossary of World TermsCycuri: A race of hairless, aquatic humanoids with a mystical third eye blessed by Lord Moon.
