“TO VICTORY!” everyone in the tavern shouted, and the ring of the cheering still lingered in the bones of inn, even now in earliest morning as the wind continued to blow. “WHERE IN THE HELLS IS MY…oh…thanks Arnara you have class.” “Yeah.maybe a goblin or something short,” “Pardon me, can you bring me a metheglin and some of…what did you call it…’rotgut?’” “I can’t believe you wandered off to play with a statue!” “This is worse than the Baron’s where is my BOOZE?!?!” Sarel and the others worked late into the night, cleaning up from the celebrating from the day before, and exhausted themselves as the five adventures drank and ate their fill, spending their fresh earned coin amid the boisterous conversations throughout the night. Sarel Bankdown had welcomed the adventurers, and their coin with open arms into her place, and the tavern wenches were hard pressed to keep up with their new patron’s requests. Inside the Griffon’s Nest, the fire had burned down to embers, the candles stubs, and the torches sputtered their last flame in the darkened tavern. The wind blew across the mountain valley, whistling around the eaves and causing the wooden beams to creak of the old inn. It was in the deepest part of the night, where only the faintest light of the sun could be seen on the horizon. Note: there might be some spoilers.so beware. So I hope you enjoy the Vignettes as we travel from, the Forge of Fury, to the Tomb of Annihilation, Dead in Thay, and beyond. Later in the set are true collaboration with other players from the various adventures. But as I played the character with this group, they were/are very into the roleplaying and story building, much of it done between sessions in Discord as part of the 'short/long rest.' What it led to was a number of shorts, that are an mix of discord chats, prose and verbal dialog. They liked the deep backstory with Myrai, to the point that one of the characters in basically an homage to the hipped Myrai from Sigil. So I then wondered, "what happened to Arnara after Myrai left?" And I decided, to 'roll up' (ok I point buy I always do point buy) her as a Bladesinger, heading out to find herself.Īnd for some reason, she was a hit with the players. But about the time I completed that work, I was invited to play in a series of adventures that started with the "Forge of Fury," and I needed a character. She was fun addition to Myrai's backstory, but that was it. And so, the Elven noble Sonalta Arnara Ustina was born. So.When I was playing in the Journal of the Souls of Legend campaign, one of the mechanical things, was I had decided to do a downtime activity of carousing with the nobles. Keryasa, (Rog 7 - Swashbuckler / Dhampir).(Ftr 3/ Rog 11 Psi Warrior / Soulknife / Wood Elf) Arnara,1st Daughter and Heir of House Ustina.So who can we expect to see this particular rogues gallery? Including the original posts, I'll update this list as I go. Its fun writing a big epic, but sometimes a short is all that is needed. But the campaigns ended, and things moved on.īut as it turned out over the course of a number of years, I produced other shorts of other characters for no reason beyond I wanted to. So when I posted this, I meant it as a series of shorts on my then current character in play, Arnara.
