DM Notes – C01.S01.02
Here we see Yisi and Valea venturing out into the world beyond the monastery. Sure they have taken a few trips into Mosstone in the past for supplies, but they were always accompanied by Adepts on those trips. Today they are on their own to begin a long journey (well… long for them anyway…).
In this scene, we meet Nim and Norli Bragos (oh.. And Tronk). Norli takes an unsual liking to the couple and outfits them with some enchanted clothing. The Bragos Twins will return at some point… Nim is a merchant with a reputation for being able to locate (and trade) special items.
We also meet a small band of Half-Orcs claiming to be “Cyrics Cudgel”… a cult dedicated to bringing back the Church of Cyric. They are also a bit isolationist, allowing only Orc kin membership. Why is unclear, perhaps we will find out later. Really they are just bandits and bullies wanting to pillage other folk. At any rate… they will be biting off more than than can chew. Perhaps they will learn their lesson and ensure they have better numbers next time…
I’m not sure if Cyrics Cudgel will ever become a serious threat… or just occasional opportunity for comic relief… Maybe perhaps one of our PC characters will have reason to despise Cyric and his church – and maybe Cyrics Cudgel will kidnap and ransom some key NPC which a Warden Shield will need to rescue.
