[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 5682063, member: 4936"] Enworld still gets hammered sometimes during peak hours. Here's my trifecta of concepts: [B]The Lost Scion Returns[/B] - Little is known of Surabar's wife, as the wizard ensured her escape early on and only followed when his work in Cauldron was done. His sons and, later, grandsons found work in other locations. Eventually though, the various lines leading back to Surabar. Here a grandson perished childdless, there a daughter was widowed. Finally there was but one line left, and of that line one daughter. She learned of her ancestor and was inspired by his deeds to follow his footsteps and become a wizard. Now, fresh from her studies and, truth be told, still quite the innocent in worldly matters, she has come to Cauldron to see the very place Surabar made, and the people he saved. She would love to find some old possession of his to keep, or tidbits and information to let her become closer to him, even if only in her own head. She has no idea that the blood of Surabar has a strength all its own...and an ancient enmity that never sleeps, and never forgets. [B]The Lost Scion Returns Part Deux[/B] - Little was written of the hero-wizard Surabar's love life, though it's known he had at least one lover. What is not known, at least not by those in Cauldron, was that he had in fact, two. While exploring what were then savage lands around the volcano prior to Cauldron's founding he had many encounters with native tribes of humans and humanoids. In one such tribe, friendlier than most to strangers, he met a captivating woman who's magics rivaled his own, yet were tantalizingly different. He moved on after staying for a time...as both understood he would. He never knew the child sired there in the jungles. But she never forgot him. Now, generations later, a wildling witch makes the journey to the cratered city of Cauldron to learn about the side of her heritage that the matriarchs of her tribe cannot help her with. [B]Gnomes'er All Gone[/B] - The gnomes who did not flee to Cauldron, but escaped the Vanishing, scattered out over the wilds past the mountains. There they lived simpler lives than in the commune; more in tune with the rhythms of nature. Some embraced their old feyness and became little more than spirits of the wood. Others walked the precarious line between mortality and the True Fey, drawing power from those ties without losing themselves to it. One gnome who came to walk that path now returns to Cauldron, hoping to find out what happened there after the gnomes fled. Hoping to find relatives safe on its streets rather than...gone. Hoping above all to one day unravel the mystery behind the Vanishing, and make sure it never happens again. ... I'm leaning towards wizard or witch right now...suggestions welcome. [/QUOTE]
