The word is out that a small group of adventurers is wanted to accept a commission for a special assignment at the main wall at the border to the Savage Lands. Strange that someone would want to put a special squad on the wall when the Confederation Council has just publicly announced that the army was being recalled from the wall, since the Savage Lands no longer threaten the Confederation.
Looking for 3-5 players to accept the challenge. Special gestalt rules given here.
Update: Looks like we may have 3 interested players.... Could use 0-2 more.
More Background: PCs are from an area inside a ring of exceptionally high mountains called the Crescent, about 2000 miles N-S and 1500 miles W-E. The only passable exit is to the east to the Savage Lands. Mount Zune to the N is the highest mountain known, over 35,000 feet high, home to the gods. It is continually in the clouds. The various nations inside the Crescent long ago formed a Confederation Council to oversee issues that affect all nations inside the Crescent. Building and manning the three walls between the Crescent and the Savage Lands was one of those issues. About 100 years ago, Prince Barrat led the mission to build the walls and end the invasions from the Savage Lands. The Prince returned to parades and statues, but no one else from his expedition was ever heard from. According to Prince Barrat, his group were all heroes, dying to protect the Crescent from the aggressors from the Savage Lands. At his recommendation, an army was raised and sent to man the walls to prevent further invasions. Prince Barrat retired to his castle decades ago, insisting that he wanted to die at home undisturbed. The Confederation Council has an honor guard at the castle to prevent looting. No one has lived in the castle for the last 8 years.
