[QUOTE="Daztur, post: 5855165, member: 55680"] [b]The Treasure Stash of Giles Chosard[/b] Hex 09.06 In an otherwise-uninteresting stretch of plains a young bravo named Giles Chosard has stashed a collection of treasure and equipment under a large rock. After committing crimes that the Priests of the Temple Invisible will take a man's tongue out for speaking of, the father of Giles Chosard barely escaped the City of Shuttered Windows (29.14) with his life for lands far to the south. There the man, who had once been a wealthy Elector, filled his young son's ears with tales of his lost home, the greatest and most beautiful city on the face of the world: the high towers ringed with walkways that seem to stretch to touch the bright balloons that sail through the sky, the ladies clad in bright feathers, the great beasts howling their death cries within the Wedding Band (30.15) and all the rest. When he came of age, Giles Chosard took passage to the Shrouded Lands, but found the gates of Shuttered barred to him. Since then he has wandered the Westmarches seeking enough glory and wealth to blot out the misdeeds of his father and allow him to set foot in the glorious City. He has pried out the gems of an idol in the ziggurat (06.10) and gave them freely to a lady of the city (Ilace, currently located at 03.08 after a ballooning mishap) among several other adventures. Giles has quick hands and a quicker tongue, but he is not nearly as good of a swordsman as he believes himself to be and much of his success has come from more luck than skill. To citizens of the City, Giles Chosard cuts a somewhat ridiculous figure, his clothing and manner slavishly follows the fashions in the City during his father's day and in all ways he tries to act how be believes a gentleman of the City should act, taking such things far more seriously than any of the actual inhabitants of the city do. Hooks: -What crime did Giles' father commit? -Just what kind of things does Giles do because that's what he thinks is the proper way for a gentleman of Shuttered to act? -What adventures has Giles gone on? -What treasure lies in his stash? [b]The Cloud Forests[/b] Hex 47.00 The World's Edge extends in a great loop far beyond the lands of the elves. The terrain where it crosses the Grey Mountains north of the Withered Moors (41.02) is truly spectacular. Dozens of great mountains were shattered to pieces by the cataclysm that created the World's Edge, some leaning drunkenly over the Edge and others cut as sharply as if by a knife. However, it is a rare day when a traveler can cast his eyes upon the sights for these lands are almost constantly shrouded in mists and clouds blown in from the east. Their moisture nourishes a surprising profusion of plants, some clinging to the very cliff of the Edge itself. These plants are noted for their potent poisons, as are the animals that lurk among them, and are highly valued by the Smiling Men of the City of Shuttered Windows (29.14). Hooks: -What withered the Withered Moors (that's the area where Crossbow Henry lives since it's the most godforsaken place imaginable)? -Why so much poison in the cloud forests? -Who are the Smiling Men of Shuttered?
